Human-capital as the bootloader for AI-capital, which would then take the reins. This has nothing to do with humanism. It is the inhuman assembly of our own dethroning. https://twitter.com/HalifaxShadow/status/1025162040891985921 …
That's why there's the differentiation between human-capital and AI-capital. Ultimately if humans were to die out tomorrow, capital as WE know it would end.

not sure how much that distinction can actually be maintained. but even conceding that, the timeframe of human extinction cannot be abstracted away like that. how/when "we all die" very much matter to whether "capital disappears".

Let's say we don't create Capital-as-AI and we all die, what happens to capital then? Considering no one is around to do anything with it.
-
we've already created capital as AI (tbf, I don't any real distinction between them). again, I don't think we all die in this abstract manner. how we go down is important (nuclear war? grey goo? global warming?) and consequential to capital's next stage
-
I'm just playing devils advocate. We all die tomorrow - or at least we die before we make any significant techno-economic changes, how would capital keep going exactly?

I understand what you're doing, but this is like Rothbard's red button to eliminate the state. if you out the process of elimination in a black box, you can't know how it comes out of the other side.
-
If you say we've already made Capital-as-AI, it's a pretty crap AI considering its still reliant on our existence - for now of course
-
is a flower a pretty lame plant for depending on wasps to reproduce? capital managed to build itself out of literally nothing in about 500 years, and ever faster. and it's not really far from autonomy right now (think 3D self-printers)

Flowers are lame generally. Maybe you could turn these discussions into a post?
