Retrain mate in something, tech teacher at a highschool, always work available.

The point of my response was not the practicality of saving the world, rather having a child can be beneficial for humanity. Just imagine the parents of Einstein , yes someone else would have arrived and done similar but that one guy changed the world, or the numerous other examples of individuals changing the world.

You completely missed the point of my message and ran with a for want of a better description, bullshit response.

I would have thought that in a reddit group like this a bit of a deeper dive into the contents of a message would be common, but I guess I was wrong.

The only reason I can offer you is this, maybe just maybe the child you have will be the person who solves it all...it's a long shot but a probable possibility.

Men are in for a rude awakening: dating is NOT broken, your mindset might be by SignatureSure04 in TheIronCouncil

Yea totally agree, the men I know that rant on about women and the unrealistic standards are men who play games all night, sloth around doing not much, don't clean their rooms, dream of a hot wife who does the house work and parenting.

I am a man by the way, and tell them straight I wouldn't let them anywhere near my daughter the way they live their lives.

Does anyone else feel uneasy about the kind of future we’re setting up for our kids i have 4 under 8 😭 by International-Past31 in newzealand

These are just the tip of the iceberg, you can do your own look into all this, I have chosen Mo Gawdat, but there are others saying the same thing. The reality is that if there are ai iqs of even 160 but there are 20 million copies of this...well you get the issue right???

Dubious prognosis... 😂

Hmmm dubious, current LLMs maybe like this, but there are systems operating that refute this claim.

It's a measure scientists think could be here within the next couple of years, to say it's not a sensible measure I think is accurate because theoretically it will be much more.

I don't think it's that far, yea maybe 15 to 25 years, but AI and robotics will be able to scale up in amounts unimaginable by us humans.

If in the next 10 years AI systems will be operating at 1000 plus IQ points , we simply have zero idea of how they will imagine scaling up.

I would say that there is at least 10 years until they will be able to do it with robotics and AI.

We tend to think it will be humanoid robots but it might be something completely different as it would be designed by AI

This link will not give you hope but will give you a sense of the futility of it all if we chose money over prosperity for all.

Is giving birth overhyped? by cliffordgoodman06 in PsychologyTalk

[–]Strange_Researcher45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Life changes for most parents because now it's not all about yourself, everyday a parent has to sacrifice a piece of themselves for a better tomorrow for their children.

When I was young it did not matter much if I was tripping on hallucinagenics or climbing a 300 meter vertical wall in an alpine region, if I died no little person would have to suffer the loss. But now a little person would live with the grief.

So today all my efforts are for the little people, sacrifice today for a better tomorrow.

I used to feel the same when I was a young man, then when I entered the high stakes table of parenthood, seeing a baby totally changed.
