How can it be universally bad? Gravity is universal, but morals are relative to individual and groups of individuals(societies). You grew up in the environment where action X is labeled as bad and then you take that so…
All of the things you mentioned are relative to a culture. Since you were born in the West, you think of all these things as bad. The indoctrination is so strong that you feel that your opinion is an objective fact.…

Who will create the lab? Won't he be the most powerful ? Every oligarch(if there are many of them, like there were many kings in medieval Europe) would need to have a lab. It will be specialized. Just like factories…
Imagine you alone can control robots and grow animals(including humans) in a lab. You could use robots for specific tasks and use humans as sexual slaves or worker slaves. This could happen if there are 'designer…
Yeah one of the dangers of AI and robots taking jobs is that they don't have any customers left as in B2C business model. They will have to do a B2B model ... Great point! B2B will be few oligarchs trading among…
