As the first and possibly only species to become sentient and to truly control our species' destiny we have the unique opportunity of asking ourselves. What should we do?
I don't mean what is your individual purpose.
What should sapiens, humans, terrans, as a whole, be aiming to do?
We should be aiming to keep it as such. By keeping it as such i mean we ve got to first of all make sure the earth we hold so dear and aim to control all it inhabitants must be kept safe, Issues of global warming are real and if care is not taken, there will be no planet for us to be sentient or have a great control over anymore. Secondly, i look at the need for us to play safe. To play safe, i mean we have to be sure we dont get over ourselves by doing things that will relinquish power to our own creations. I believe AI comes to mind then. Doing this will sustain our reign for a long time
