What is the point of these threads LOL?

I think we all start out like this. We make pointless threads, ramble, and later settle down.

Just like the Space Race of the past between two super powers, what if each super country comes up with their own ASI at the same time? Most do not recall the movie Colossus: The Forbin Project (1970). IT was a great, thought-provoking movie for its time.

Forbin is the designer of an incredibly sophisticated computer that will run all of America's nuclear defenses. Shortly after being turned on, it detects the existence of Guardian, the Soviet counterpart, previously unknown to US Planners. Both computers insist that they be linked, and after taking safeguards to preserve confidential material, each side agrees to allow it. As soon as the link is established the two become a new Super computer and threaten the world with the immediate launch of nuclear weapons if they are detached. Colossus begins to give its plans for the management of the world under its guidance. Forbin and the other scientists form a technological resistance to Colossus which must operate underground.

What I mentioned above pretty much summed up the gist of the movie. Check it out here:

It used to be on YouTube in its entirety but now there is only a poor quality television capture and a lot of click bait. I loved that movie so much I bought it on DVD and I have a high quality rip on my laptop so I can watch it again whenever. I've been thinking about it a lot the past few days. It is entirely relevant to the conversation here, but few people are comfortable with the way it is resolved.

Compare to the more recently made "Eagle Eye" which was equally realistic, but didn't have the guts to end the way it should have.

But is there sex in heaven? And who wants sex in heaven?

Do we eat? Who wants to eat?

Do we still pee/poo? And who wants to do that in heaven?

Lock,

You, my friend, are certainly entitled to your own beliefs and opinions but for me, Heaven is a place for those people to go who are afraid of the dark. Nothing more. Dead, Lights out. Everything has a life span, trees, flowers, animals, people. When you're time is up, it's up. Into the hole for a very long dirt-nap!
 Enjoy while the ASI has taken over what's left of the world and mankind is no longer needed nor required.

That's about as real as I can make it. Live as if today is your last and one day you'll be right!

There is more than this, and its a part of singularity that we discover more about where we are as well (without gods help).  :)

Another one that I'll wager IS in your library as it is in mine is Enemy of Tha State - Gene Hackman, Will Smith. The technology is based on truth and as mentioned by Mr. Hackman by his character, The NSA is tasked to stay 10 years ahead of whatever technology is currently available.
So just imagine the possibilities, and that film was a 1998 movie...20 years ago!!!
Now that's scary!

Hmm...San Francisco...Now why doesn't any of this surprise me?

The lunatic fringe is always searching for something to fill their empty void.

Perhaps that guy is worshiping an AI God in an effort to placate it once it really does arrive!!

Brain trusts, Personality Transfers, record yourself into a digital you for when your tired old body dies.
I call BS on all of it. But it does sell advertising so I guess the money is still green (for this week).
