'I managed to eke out a few more words than I thought I would' - you did much more than that.... this was top form! Probably made us all want to vomit, which, in this context, is a win.

'Anthropy' - eh. The prefix is assumed. 'Anthropy' as a stand-alone is ambiguous... philAnthropy could also be misAnthropy... techAnthropy... chimerAnthropy... postAnthropy - the list goes on.

Cliches of so many orders, from agenda-ridden vernaculars to physical embodiments. Just wondering what happens to the divine right of kings in a technocracy... does AI becomes god... or one of its key progenitors, say, Ray Kurzweil? Maybe a god hologram even. Dunno. Perhaps they'll just go down the anachronism route and hope nobody notices.

Well, I need to go and get warm (expensive as that is these days). My blood is running a bit colder than it was before I started reading this article. Bless you Ben... you hit a lot of nails on the head... not just insightfully, but eloquently and sardonically. Thank you for that.
