Some ideas for philosophy and science. Part 1.

[Drashner1]

Emotional intelligence is just one INHERENT(Sorry for my caps, underlining and italics don't work here) part of intelligence, so all conscious beings(as opposed to nonsapients and Animins) are in possession of it.

I completely understand and respect your avoidance of mass technorapture and possession of hostile non-perversity transapients, I was just talking about how I think of the singularity so that others might compare and argue(civilly) with me.

Until/unless the human race/you personally have encountered multiple types of conscious beings, I think that statement may be more than a bit...overconfident. Since I'm pretty certain the former would have made the news, I have to ask what your personal evidence is for making that statement.

More generally, debate about the singularity and what form it might take might work better on the OA discord server (IMHO). The forum doesn't forbid that kind of discussion if people want to do it, but in recent years, the primary focus here has been on the ongoing creation and updating of the OA setting. In particular, if you're looking for (civil) debate on the matter, the discord might be more productive for you.

My 2c worth,
