Maybe stupid would not be so bad

The daily things that make life easier decide for us. Defaults take over. Rebels in our fantasies, but when did we act?

So if we let the little intelligent things we create take over our “little choices” (sounds less important than “decisions”), if they make decisions better than us, if these beasties do a better job than what we used to do, if we become superfluous, then why do we need intelligence ourselves?

So maybe we are the peak. Maybe to be stupid would not be so bad—we would not get bored so easily. We would want fewer emotions so we would do nothing and feel OK about ourselves. Not good, but not guilty.
