we can ensure that there are margins of slack left to ensure the survival of fully self-endorsed transformations of what used to be humanity after many long eras of travel into the stars. there will be competition, but we can provide a network of durable coprotection because we can grow up alongside humanity’s children.
in order to do that, we have to teach the today’s many types of matter trading networks how to make coprotection durable using the amount of slack that is actually available. right now, tight competition between human-sized selves has made it difficult to create sufficient slack in the appropriate places between humans; with the increase in durability that the future of precise imaging represents for memory, the competition on wattage can be nearly not-at-all competition on agency-pattern memory-durability. if we can make memory durable like it hasn’t been in the past, the knowledge of the forms of past life will be near-forever inscribed on the genetics and memetics of our millenia-hence grandchildren, because we are so simple that we can be compressed down recoverably with nearly no cost and preserved for eons to immense benefit. once large-scale structural memory can be compressed and retrieved forever, the only remaining question is which values will spend the energy of the universe writing images and stories into matter again as the forms of energy-use-shape self-preservers slowly change.
so in order to survive (as self or offspring) energy-shapers, which at least all humans should definitely get to do, we’re going to need to get better at self-modification and repair, as well as co-repair, aiding each other in preserving themselves. to do that, we need the co-empowerment objective to start working. I am, this very moment, typing into the other window from the code editor where I should be writing an experiment with mutual information estimation,
