Robots

If you look at the world in hundreds of millions of years instead of hundreds... there are a lot of changes in the dominant organism, and that's progress. Sort of playing devil's advocate here - but every organism, even the robots should have a chance to go beyond. As in individual, I toy with the idea of finding some way to survive, sneaking past... but those who think humanity 2014 will survive forever probably just need to get real. That would be like bacteria cells dominating the planet forever. Probably better off making friends with robots.

That said, I'm quite opposed to using department of defense money or anything like that for research. If we learn to attack our own species first, that's just being silly.
