The only safe genie is no genie at all, it’s obvious, it just astounds
me that otherwise intelligent people think this is a point worthy of
debate. They actually think they can enslave a mind astronomically more
powerful than their own for eternity. I fully admit I just don’t get it,
I don’t understand what the hell they are thinking.
