    All energy needs in the physical world entirely provided by automated machine work while humanity lives inside a digital singularity with limitless possibility for anything.

    Everyone is thinking utterly small in this thread. The highest, wildest, utopia-ist future is a completely workless space where resources are truly limitless and "reality" is anything at all. The only thing humanity will then have to worry about is how to overcome entropy or the heat death of the universe trillions of years down the line in the real universe outside of their digital space.

    Almost everything people are describing in this thread is achieved just by the final defeat of capitalism. There are absolutely ridiculous levels of utopia to imagine that exist far beyond that victory.

        At a certain point, it stops being a question of how to organize a perfect society and starts being a question of whether it's possible to be an ethical demiurge.

      The only thing that id personally add to this is a semi-hivemind for all of humanity, as i feel that only real deeply engrained actual interconnectedness will be able to prevent individuals fucking over the whole of humanity in the long run. Only semi tho, as our differences and therefore differing views on everything are what make us as humans really interesting (and i just want to stay me, assimilation sounds shit).
