    Nick Land openly states that in the war between Skynet/AI/Capitalism and the human race, he is against the "monkeys" In case you haven't noticed, YOU are one of "the monkeys" that Land is against Land is you enemy, and he even says so out loud

        Taking a stand against your own species is a level of cuckoldry that goes way, way, way, beyond mere neoconservatism

        So... I've been thinking about this for a while... and assuming Land isn't doing some fancy rhetorical magic... (1) Capitalism is not separable from human goals, (2) AI will not need capitalism, (3) ergo, Land is wrong.

        The only situation under which AI+capitalism make sense is if biological humans are using the two as a substrate. So maybe Land wants us to speed up the switch to that substrate.

        There is a meme-vs-gene dichotomy at play. I happen to think humanity is genes over memes, but machine transhumanists think humans are memes over genes. A full “upgrade” will erase us biologically, which means I (a biological being) have no reason to care about my descendants.

        I doubt humanity could ever be erased. All it would take is a few people choosing to remain human

        This will be resolved using cults. There will be a cult of “primitivists” and a cult of “machine accelerationists.” The latter will dissolve into silicon goo. The former will have some chance of surviving.

        Scarcity is one of the things that give us dignity. Ten thousand electronic copies of Einstein devalue Einstein as a being. Though artificial scarcity could be ensured through some kind of blockchain-like tech.

        I'm afraid I'm going to need a citation for this one. Pretty sure @Outsideness isn't agitating for the destruction of the human species.

        You're over thinking this. Land isn't in a position to *do* much; his aesthetic preferences are informative of the gap between human moral desires and the empirical outcomes of human interests
