Rafe Kaplan Journal #6

Going off the assumption that we are in this plane of existence in order to live, while being quite a big assumption it makes sense because there is no other subconscious direction that we are given, I believe that the assimilation of a human mind into a robotic body is the natural evolution of the human species. Because if our only true purpose is to live, is there any better way than to combine with an undying body that can carry our, seemingly, unkillable minds forever. The concept that we would not enjoy the presence of robots in our daily lives is an understatement as we hate sharing the world even with each other let alone a, vastly, superior being. However, my prediction is that living with robots as our slaves is only the first step towards total robotification of all humans as there does not seem to be a reason not to. And if that is the case, the singularity would not be when robots realize they no longer need us, but when we realize we no longer need our mortal bodies and metamorphize into our final forms. The ultimate, imperfect, being…unkillable, and ever-collecting knowledge of a world where we were born in order to live. Forever.
