If humanity plays its cards right, there will be trillions and trillions of humans living in the future, all over the galaxy. Everyone who lives right now, or has ever lived, is barely noticeable compared to that.
Take a look at the recent Less Wrong post:

I don't see any flaws in this argument, we all are on a fast-track to getting killed by AI, and the smartest people on the planet don't have a plan on how to fix it. "Build an AI that burns all GPUs to prevent all the future AIs, and hopefully doesn't kill us all in the process" is the best idea they've got.
If you believe that we're about to kill trillions and trillions of potential future human beings, these priorities make sense.

Yeah, sorry. This justifies basically any human atrocity. As far as I’m concerned that’s a case of “Proving too much” and therefore the associated logic must be wrong.
