“If you are talking about a timescale of decades, than intelligence augmentation does seems like a worthy avenue of investment”
This seems like the way to go to me. It’s like “generation ships” in sci-fi. Should we launch ships to distant star systems today, knowing that ships launched 10 years from now will overtake them on the way?
Of course in the case of AI, we don’t know what the rate of human enhancement will be, and maybe the star isn’t so distant after all.
