"What will happen to the job market once AI outperforms humans in cognitive tasks?"

"More than a century after Nietzsche pronounced Him dead. God seems to be making a comeback. But this is a mirage. God is dead - it's just taking a while to get rid of the body".

I love that.

People who believe in the hi-tech Ark should not be put in charge of global ecology, for the same reason that people who believe uib heavenly afterlif shouldt be given nuclear weapons

Well, it seems that consciousness and mind are real. We know it. But this thing called the soul - there's no evidence for that, nothing.

Just to reinforce how much of a bastard “God” was/is, and how crap the bible is:

Afterall when the Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become’. He resolved to ‘wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created’.

....and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures who move along the ground”.

“What on earth have the animals done??” (Ricky Gervais once said).
