Only intelligent beings are capable of being sincere. You are smart when you can reason through everything and win every argument, but you are intelligent only when you are sincere. You can win every argument and still miss the point. You can reason through everything then you end up accepting the most unreasonable things. But when you sincerely want things to get better, you will find a way to make it better. We don't need AI or any advanced technology to tell us that. We can make things better when we begin to sincerely hope to do so. And if we are not good enough to make things better on Earth, we are not good enough to voyage out.
