I’m very cynical about science’s lofty ideals and beliefs about what humans should strive to achieve. I don’t think we will ever be like Star Trek and I don’t think we will ever experience creating an artificial consciousness that will replace us.

Joe Rogan's recent podcast episode (#1828) with Michio Kaku helped me think about this question. In particular the discussion of the Kardashev scale and its three stages of evolution of civilization. The United Federation of Planets in Star Trek would probably be an example of Type II civilization. We might become a Type I within a couple hundred years and Type II in a few thousand based on projected increases in our ability to access and use energy.
