Your comment summarizes what I worry might be a more widespread opinion than I expected. If you think that human extinction is a fair price to pay for creating a supercomputer, then our value systems are so incompatible that I really don't know what to say.

I guess I wouldn't have been so angry about any of this before I had children, but now I'm very much in favor of prolonged human existence.

Serious question - why?

What are your axioms on what’s important, if not the continued existence of the human race?

edit: I’m genuinely intrigued

Why should general intelligence continue to survive? You are placing a human value on continued existence.
