I think it's kind of a shame we created a legal system of judges and lawyers who aim to be intelligent and work hard for poor people who are wronged, just for so much of their time and work to be spent on greedy and selfish people like Elon Musk and Sam Altman to get even richer.
I hate to break it to people who enjoy mythical fantasy and a good story, I think there's a good chance we are god ourselves, and living beings on any planet shape its way, and from that perspective humans may be doing awesome as dinosaurs likely fought way more and never smiled.
