If we succeed in building strong AI it may take the helm from us in the battle of complexity against entropy. And the most friendly AI might offer humanity comfortable population controlled hairless monkey habitats to live out our remaining millenia as a species.

"the battle of complexity against entropy" < battle implies parties and a thing to be won (aka progress), no? I'm not rooting for Nihilism (yet..) when discussing the big picture, but injecting a tiny dose of that instead of this lingo of certainty can certainly be refreshing ;)

I think that life is indeed locked in a battle against entropy. Cells can be understood as supermolecules that create and stabilize their structure with information processing. Competition between organisms has given rise to complexity. But there is no meaning in all of this.
