Here is a thought experiment that should keep you up at night:
Imagine a robot that can build copies of itself. Each copy is slightly better than the last—faster, smarter, more efficient. Within a few generations, you have thousands of these machines, each one learning from all the mistakes and successes of its predecessors.
Now ask yourself: What are they optimizing for?
If the answer is anything other than "explicit human benefit with ironclad safeguards," you have just created humanity's last invention.

Somewhere in the USA, a brown skinned girl is hiding in an attic, a basement, or on a darker bedroom floor with only the tv blaring silently. And she is writing a diary.
Somewhere in the US a Jewish boy is anguished about Gaza but afraid more for his parents who can’t believe they are finally being proven right about Nazis hiding in plain sight everywhere in the suburbs, the hinterlands, and the office towers.

Are you a super hero?
Do you have sweet dreams?
You should try, you know.
We need sweet dreams too.
(Along with the willingness to confront the fear, the frustration, the betrayals, the agonies, and the pitfalls of pride, shame, guilt, and opportunism, that accompanies the struggle to make the sweetness something that doesn’t cloy and rot too soon for too many. )
Good title.
Yes, superheroes rarely have sweet dreams, most of the time they must be vigilant.
Thanks, man.
Snakes in our tradition are actually considered auspicious...So perhaps it is not such a bad nightmare, despite the grimace on our hero's face!
Let's hope so!
The art is so cool
Thank you.
Do you do the art and the writing?
Yeah, I do both.

They're not so cute now!
But they're big and strong and healthy.
Yes. They turned out very healthy and strong, so Huaman has another challenge.

Are you a super hero?
Do you have sweet dreams?
Are you a saint?
Do you have sweat dreams?
Are you a demon?
Do you have snot dreams?
Are you an angel?
Do you cry snot tears?
Are you a villain?
Do you cry shame tears?
Are you aware?
Do you tear into dreams?
Are you numb?
Do you have sweet dreams?
