I would say the most useful thing when we get close to it is a general purpose robot capable of jumpstarting civilization.
We need a few of those in bunkers around the solar system.
- lev99 8y agoI don't fully understand what single machine could do to "jumpstart" civilization. Does the robot focus on agriculture, medicine, education, culture, or industry? If it is "general purpose" it could work on all, but it's only one machine, and there is too much to do for just one agent. When you say robot you imply that the robot would do the world of building the civilization. We'd need dozens to "jumpstart" a civilization. Maybe a single machine could act as a library of knowledge to teach people how to create a civilization. I'm doubtful people would be willing to follow such a machine long enough to generate 8086 CPUs.
