        BAAN also solves the Fermi paradox: whenever aliens create AI, it turns antinatalistic, sterilizes everyone, and the alien race is gone.

        the logical conclusion, humans would be free of suffering if they were dead.

        It surprises me terrorist groups haven't formed out of this kind of thinking.

        Lots of assumptions glossed over in this, Sam. Assertions offered as facts, apparently unrecognized.

        Sam should invite Benatar to podcast. The whole idea of anti natalism is simply futile. The universe will repeat over and over again.

        Alternate ending: BAAN reads bible. Has conversion and becomes Catholic. Decides to act benevolently and loves thy neighbor. Lives forever.
