AI; yes, what it requires is a major redistribution of wealth and enhanced public education. People need to understand what we are facing and the thesis of AI is complex abstract thinking; and to address that we must shed primitive ideas for modern ideas suited to adapting to modern problems.

We are born with a brain adapted to a life as a nomadic animal. The modern world we created cannot be understood well by the instinctual animal brain.

That brain must be replaced by a modern existential humanitarian brain capable of dealing with complex ideas. The only way that can happen is though rigorous education. One is not born knowing how to read and write and do math. We must learn those things along with complex thought, abstract thought, ideas.

If you look at the countries around the world one thing stands out like a soar thumb. The secular countries are doing much better than the theocracies or quasi theocracies.
