“Swords, Guns and AI Technology will take us far, far and farther, until it dumps us back where we came from, in the caves, but of concrete ruins. We will once again fight with spears and axes, made of broken bits of chips and circuit boards. Silicon, lithium, gold, all will be worthless, apes will barter again with sheep and boars. Yesterday's world was obsessed with swords, today's world is obsessed with guns, tomorrow's world will be obsessed with AI, and it always ends up with death and destruction. Day after tomorrow it'll be business as usual, savage world will be back obsessing with fire, then again with swords, then guns, and so on, till the sky pours ashes and seas boil over.”

“Yesterday, I watched a grizzly swim across the Kane River at sunrise. I witnessed the sun igniting the golden fur behind his ears, a golden halo surrounding his mighty head. I felt humbled and awestruck at the power and grace of this majestic creature, consumed by the feeling that there are forces greater than we can ever know controlling this Earth. There are answers to questions that, for now, remain beyond our sight. I am hopeful that there are peaceful and beautiful possibilities for us all. I am hopeful that the beauty which I see in these lands has a power greater than the darkness. I am hopeful that in our darkest and most trying of days, this love will serve as a safe haven to guide us all out of the inferno of fear driving men to these black and brutal, lonely corners of Hell. I am hopeful that the great spirit of love will save us all.”
