Well, I certainly believe that there are more - - -  let's say, "unintellig=
ent" people in the world. Whether they are stupid or ignorant, I don't thin=
k, makes any difference. Sure, one can say that the ignorant can learn but =
I would think that the vast majority of ignorant people will never get the =
opportunity to get educated so the end results are the same. That is, just =
add the ignorant in with the stupid. And THAT's a lot of people. And yes, I=
 would agree that stupidity and ignorance do breed and propagate those cond=
itions in the next generation.=20
.
Getting back to the artificial intelligence aspect - - - as it applies to t=
he universe and space exploration  - - -  It does seem to make sense that t=
he development of artificial intelligence and robotics probably should be t=
he next "natural" step in evolution of any biological species. There is no =
way that a biological entity will ever be able to accomplish interstellar e=
xploration. If we can just reach that point of exploring our galaxy to the =
extent that allows us to relieve the pressure of overpopulation, perhaps by=
 that time the joining of the biologic, robotic and AI into one entity will=
 provide a "being" that can withstand the rigors of time necessary for inte=
rstellar travel.=20
And just to remain on topic - - - I'll bet there will be a lot of alarms on=
 that space ship. ;->
