That's good news. The "baby" could learn that, just like humans, it might die
at any moment.

``These new entities are going to be more human than human. They are going to
be pro-human to the extent that they will take themselves as such. They will
be human-like.''

Useless hypotheses, etc.:
 consciousness, phlogiston, philosophy, vitalism, mind, free will, qualia,
analog computing, cultural relativism, GAC, Cyc, Eliza, cryonics, individual
uniqueness, ego

     Everything that can happen has already happened, not just once,
     but an infinite number of times, and will continue to do so forever.

We won't move into a better future until we debunk religiosity, the most
regressive force now operating in society.
