| 11:00:10 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: bye irvken :) |
| 11:00:23 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: OK, thanks to everyone for coming :D |
| 11:00:32 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: Today's topic was suggested by our topless friend, Sat |
| 11:00:38 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: "Children and the Singularity" |
| 11:00:42 | SLacker | Sat Batra wiggles his boobies |
| 11:00:51 | SLacker | Judas Stromer: you go girl |
| 11:01:06 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: Some of the questions to adress.... |
| 11:01:21 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: Should children be prevented from transcending? |
| 11:01:29 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: What happens if they do anyway? |
| 11:01:41 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: What ethics can we apply in the case of children? |
| 11:01:52 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: Who would like to start? |
| 11:02:02 | SLacker | Judas Stromer: I don't know much about transcending to have an opinion, ie. what is it? |
| 11:02:11 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: OK, let's start there |
| 11:02:14 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: define some terms |
| 11:02:32 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: Sat, what did you mean? |
| 11:02:55 | SLacker | Giulio Perhaps: note that we are assuming that transcending will be a voluntary choice |
| 11:02:57 | SLacker | Sat Batra: well I meant transcending current human limitations ... |
| 11:03:09 | SLacker | Sat Batra: intellectually mostly. |
| 11:03:10 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: Recursive self-improvement? |
| 11:03:15 | SLacker | Sat Batra: yes. |
| 11:03:20 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: Rapid intelligence increase? |
| 11:03:29 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: Practical immortality? |
| 11:03:36 | SLacker | Sat Batra: I was kinda wondering at what level can one make an informed choice in such a case. |
| 11:03:36 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: Super powers? ;-) |
| 11:03:54 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: Good point, G, will it be voluntary? |
| 11:04:01 | SLacker | Lucifer Darrow: Should it be? |
| 11:04:10 | SLacker | Giulio Perhaps: Perhaps but not necessarily |
| 11:04:12 | SLacker | Judas Stromer: shouldnt i be voluntary? |
| 11:04:15 | SLacker | Judas Stromer: it even |
| 11:04:16 | SLacker | Sat Batra: And whether kids should be given the opportunity for a 'normal' childhood' and what value that has. |
