One last point.

You are better off listening to the guys that built products and are heads IN THE INDUSTRY like Bill Joy, Elon Musk, Ray Kurzweil or Bill Gates vs. a college Professor that lives in an Ivory tower. It’s a lot like taking economic advice from Antifa that lives in their mommy’s basement.

Haha! (Shaking my head)

Do you also listen to them about global warming or climate change? They all believe like Algore believes?

Personally, I’d rather think about things myself - consider the available evidence and come to my own conclusions. That is not to say that I don’t want to hear what those guys or other experts have to say. I admire what they have done and the contributions they’ve made to the world, but I would consider their opinions critically, I wouldn’t blindly accept their conclusions.

And being a freeper I got a feeling you don’t accept the climate change BS because “experts” tell you you should. Or am I wrong?

And you’re probably also aware that one of the logical fallacies is “argument from authority”. So beware of experts.
