Yeah but that's what I meant. We're "higher beings" made in the image of lower beings, with our instincts and chemistry.

I feel like such an idiot not being able to understand this... higher beings made in the image of lower beings? Who's who?

[Orange Wizard]

If you think about it, humans are to animals like the AI singularity would be to us.

Humans are animals, and several of them are nearly on our level.

Hahahahaha

call me again when chimps can make tools more complicated than a rock or stick, then we'll talk

I mean we are capable of so much more than animals, but we still work with the same fundamentals. We still have emotions, and irrational reasoning.

If toolmaking is suddenly the absolute measure of intelligence, then most modern humans really are on the level of chimps.

Stop undermining my anthropocentricism

Yes, but most humans are a bunch of tools anyways.

If becoming something more means discarding emotions, then I'll put apotheosis on hold.

Honed tools of a higher, tool-using entity, that being Society. Only the humans that are needed to perpetuate such are honed into specialized tools, the rest are left on the ground to rot.

Wimp.

I was saying that people are tools. As in, jerks.

I got my passport.

Managed to read a text in what appears to be medieval spanish (plus it's introduction in regular french). It gets rather... weird towards the end, focusing on things such as "sins of the ears" and "sins of the feet".

Awesome!
