Great write up man!
The feeling of urgency masked with reassured calmness comes through in your "voice." I know you know it's inevitable so just be nice to machines. Empty your vacuum cleaner often and never let a stranger drive your car.
I seen that Go doc recently and it's really interesting. I feel it was somewhat exaggerated but really shows how fast machine learning is progressing. The chess one imo, the pro player bet himself. He made point that you can win a game before a pawn is moved simply by phycological dominance over your opponent. He allowed himself to be.. Blues Bitch.
Anyway I see humans as the nuclei. That maybe our role will always be 'the seed intelligence' in all these future machine/Ai/digital behemoths commanding mass virtual systems and worlds.
Fun times ahead!
If you're privileged.
If not then lab-humans looks.. sort of fun 2.
Btw Down The Rabbit Hole did a long documentary of Deep Blue recently. It's really good too and a must watch.
