The pace of change evolutionary biology affords pales in comparison to technology driven advances in AI, machine labor, etc. informed by Moore’s law.

Unfortunately, we humans are rather blind to just how quickly things are changing.

Our socioeconomic system is organized into a hierarchy of competing collectives. Countries, corporations, religions, unions, political parties, all advocating for their own interests. Employment of AI to gain competitive advantage is inevitable.

The Genie is out of the bottle and everyone is shouting wishes at it.

Imagine if humans evolved at a close to exponential pace. That’s what we are facing today.

“The human mind is a product of the Pleistocene age. We are trying to see a world that is invisible to us.”― Steven Pinker
