LOL ! You make me laugh Richard...in a good way that is.....'' I have a bad feeling about this discussion, really I do.'' If it's a discussion why would you have a bad feeling about it ? The point at hand is discussion, not bad feelings. I am joking now though as I am purposely using your quote out of context. Right so I will use one of your so called expressions then...'If you will grant me an open mind then when reading the following'. Regarding your post where you explain the benefits of AGI's for future mankind...what I found so mindblowingly similar was that there are loads and loads and loads of theories out there that already support the very things you are trying to achieve. For discussion let's just talk about the underworld one shall we ? The theory is based on 'The Hollow Earth' theory, bear in mind though, just as you speak of your AGI theory this is but another one....''The British astronomer Edmund Halley, of comet fame, proposed that the earth might consist of several concentric spheres placed inside one another in the manner of a Chinese box puzzle. The two inner shells had diameters comparable to Mars and Venus, while the solid inner core was as big as the planet Mercury. More startling was Halley's proposal that each of these inner spheres might support life. They were supposed to be bathed in perpetual light created by a luminous atmosphere.'' This paticular theory goes a lot, lot further then this...google Hollow Earth if you are interested to know more, it's just another thought idea ! See Richard, not a bad discussion after all !
