The Anti-AI Thread

[andy06shake]

That's very optimistic. I certainly wished I shared that view. I don't see humans as overcoming any problems. Only creating them. We have a energy crisis. And what do we do? We create AI which sucks up massive amounts of energy, and is unreliable.

We will solve the Co2 crisis by using more  Sulfur hexafluoride around 24,000 times more potent greenhouse gas than Co2. And last about 3,200 years in the atmosphere. Has no natural reclamation, and has to be incinerated to be rendered inert. 

We will burn trees and build industrial carbon capture plants.

We are adding 75 million new people every year, to the 8.2 billion already here. Which means 75 million new energy consumers, every year. 

I figure someone will come up with a plan to evacuate earth to Venus, where it's cooler.

I won't even get into pollution or plastic.

The trick is indeed to get off this rock, find a cost effective means of colonising low earth orbit, the Moon.

And then i would tend to go with the asteroid belt and moons of the outer planets as opposed to the likes of Venus or Mars.

That way, this island Earth, might get somewhat of a break, or allowed time to recover from our antics as a race.

its okay
population will peak in the next 10 to 20 years then we are going to be a bit lonely. 
no one is having many kids for many reasons

The main one being they are expensive at least in our first world nations. 

And this world is not cheap by any manner or means in this day of age.  

According to the latest estimates from the U.N.

Our population is expected to peak sometime around the mid 2080s at around 10.3 billion or so.

They assure us 'trusted' and they deliver anything but.

Now we find the Bank truth - there can be no currency that is not "theirs."

Ever.

Venus was a joke. Since it is a runaway greenhouse effect. And the people in charge are erm umm so smart. Which it could happen here. 
 

One of the most potent greenhouse gas emissions has been discovered seeping out of cracks of the Antarctic seafloor, researchers announced.
Methane has been measured escaping from crevices in the seabed at a high rate as the region warms at unprecedented rates, according to a paper published in Nature Communications.

Good idea, destroy the planet, before it destroys us.

Just at the surface level.

Floating cities about 50-60 km in a band of the upper atmosphere may be viable at some point in the distant future,

But yeah, the place is pretty much a furnace.
