>I am being completely honest when I say that this is the sole reason why I have not decided to have children and when I implore anyone who reads this to not bring anyone into the world. The future will be very bleak for future generations.
If everyone listened to you, there would be no future generations. Have you thought this through? "Let's end the human race, because something bad might happen" doesn't exactly sound very solid reasoning.
p.s. What did your girlfriend/wife say about your decision?
- StellarTabi 8y agoRisk of idiocracy aside, there's enough humans and diversity in the way humans think that we can definitely rely on enough other humans to reproduce. I'm somebody's girlfriend/wife and I do not want children (in general, and also because of future economic uncertainties) and I also don't like my existence being relagated to "someone who might want babies".
- 101001001001 8y agoYes I actually have. As I have explained, the human race will come to a sad end because of ai. What is the point of creating more generations when ai is just around the corner? It was unpleasant enough for me to discover for myself the obvious truth of ai. Why should I subject another generation to the agony of slowly realizing that human kind is caught in an existential snare? And what right do we have to create new people who will very likely suffer through massive societal decline at the best? Have you thought any of this through?
