It's just the evolution of intelligence, there's no stopping it and its a dream to reach super intelligence. it might not be your dream, but its the dream of so many, and the arguments against super intelligence aren't so sound, why are you so scared of it? we're not its food or competition, so why would it wanna create the only other live intelligence and its parents basically? We can only help it, in the end and it can help us. There's no need for destruction on either side.

We're not it's competition in the same way chimpanzees aren't our competition. Some fraction of us are interested in their well-being for aesthetic reasons, but a lot of the time this fraction loses to a not particularly powerful faction in direct competition for territory. And if there is any serious conflict of interest, there is no contest and the chimps lose. If we get lucky some fraction of superintelligence will look on us the way we look at ground apes, but that's far from a given.
