"Singularity seekers are often committing a teleological fallacy. Greater sophistication, by any metric, is not necessarily the key to success.

"A species has one strategy for survival. Species go extinct regularly. Ecosystems are diverse, the extinction of every single species is rare. Do not limit yourself to one ego. Be fruitful, multiply, and become your own ecosystem."
