to me, it seems rather simple (most likely deceptively so). if
people focuse on primarily short-term interests, the corporation who
creates the first upload is going to make a killing. if people focuse on
long-term interests, increased intelligence equals increased production
-- so if each additional intelligence produces more than it consumes, we
must (on average) all become wealthier. the question of falling wages
seems to be at best a phase and at worst a non-issue.
