Humans are actually special. We are smarter than any other animal on earth and have culture. Human brain is the most complex structure in the known universe, so even on that scale we are pretty special.

And it simply makes no sense to just throw away millions of years of evolution. Your nihilistic worldview is very naive.

Nihilistic it may be. But please don't equate nihilism and nativity.

"And it simply makes no sense to just throw away millions of years of evolution" - Why not?

To put it bluntly, because the road constant progress and improvement can potentially unveil the meaning of existence of the universe. Nihilism is naive by definition, just because you don't know the meaning, doesn't mean that there is no meaning at all.
