I really need some hope of some sort. So, I’ve started to pin some hope on the Singularity — or whatever — happening as soon as 2027 (or no later than 2030.) That gives me something to look forward to.
But I’m well aware that such thoughts are just magical thinking. Yet without hope I just stare out into space and don’t do anything.
So, I have decided to give myself some hope that maybe I will be among the first to live not just til my 70s…but maybe a few hundred years. I have to give myself this nutty bit of hope to keep going.
What ultimately will happen is anyone’s guess. But I really need something to focus my mind, otherwise I will wake up and be 60 years old and not have accomplished anything.
