Also I don't know how you can be talking about a "successful process"? When I look at society I see a big question mark and an organism that is about to kill itself because of pointless competition induced by our monetary system ...

Successful process was a jab at evolution.

The monetary system is a pretty big can of worms. Perhaps just a distraction from the bigger problem of man's tendency to "take" from others through whatever justification can be fabricated. The monetary system isn't the problem. The problem is in the man, but what you gonna do?

My hope used to be that through AGI research we would better understand man's motivation and behavior - because we were trying to model and instrument something intelligent, like a man. I still think this is a pretty good strategy. If we "obtain" this understanding, then we might be able to teach people to better control themselves and own up to their responsibility. Such a humbled man might go far toward getting needed assistance, to start contributing, and having a life.
