@SW-User As a matter of scale, sure, you can definitely say that there will be more casualties. That's not the fault of the revolution, though. That's just because we've spread over this planet like a disease. 😅

I don't think we'll see significantly worse percentages of loss overall though, in fact it'll probably be a lot less bad overall than the previous ones simply because we have more tools at our disposal. But the numbers of people affected are by their very nature higher because there are more people to have an effect upon. Just the cruel reality of how the world works. Of course, things could take a turn for the very much worse if there's something like a nuclear holocaust or total biosphere collapse, which we are certainly tempting fate on.

@UndeadPrivateer Yes but that is the our ability to survive as a species, our resillence.

I don’t know man. The promise of being on the bleeding edge, of riches and being a pioneer has driven our society as a whole before, that the entire reason the oregon trail existed.
Thats the point of the destiny manifest. Although, it could easily be argued that these things were immoral.


In terms of a techniology cost and innovation i do not think we are being too far outpaced.
I think job loss is a problem, but the route of the issue is in education. I think we are far more educated then we were hundreds of years ago, and I consider that a single copy of the new york times contains more information then the people learned in elizabethian times.

In America we are screwed because of our educations system is totally whack. It simply costs too much, and the tech industry moves too fast for our students, teachers, and prices to be nimble enough.

According to the pedia of wiki, we are in the 3rd revolution which is the computer age, what makes you say this is a separation of 3rd and fourth. I get what you mean by information technology and about the difference between say self driving cars and the crisis that could bring. But let us be honest, self driving trucks still aren’t their and the attempt to make enough innovation possible is threatening tesla all the way through.

The 3rd industrial revolution had some riots and some big issue sint he earlier 1990’s it was absolutely horrendous and we are not totally prepared for the way things are shifting. But as you mentioned we are more prepared then ever before.

Quantum computers are much more accessible then the assembly line was. If i wanted to I believe ther are some ways I could get my hands on using one. The big risk of that is using a quantum computer to pop encryption like a weasel.

I do not see any crazy stuff happening to us for the forseeable future.

I hope you don’t mind I took a more devil’s advocate APPROACH TO MY REPLY THIS TIME. I am excited to see what you reply with, and I busted out my desktop to write this puppy. I am excited to party!

as for total biosphere collapse, how likely do you thinkt hat is being in the middle of one of the great extinctions? The threats of global warming, and also Whats your take on the decaying ethnosphere?
