At one level we are all but from the Earth and then we are North Americans (we here anyway) then we are Americans. We are Northeasterners, Westerners or folks from the Plains States, Missiourians Michiganers. We choose to be Liberals or Conservatives, Philosophers or men of Business or Letters. We choose to be Republicans or Democrats or libertarians. But break it down further and we are just folks of a species (a dangerous species no question), but we are - differences and tastes aside - all in this together.

With that in mind - check this out, this piece on AI. Talk about a wakeup call. It is a cool as it terrifying.
