After AGI humans are in essence obsolete. I believe we will transcend the human form either way - whether through evolution and merging with ASI or extinction.

This makes me excited and always did - it's really hard to imagine for this to be depressing.

It's like the ultimate dream - vastly smarter, stronger, significantly richer everything including emotions and whatever we desire as well as countless other things we can't possibly understand yet.

In case getting to ASI won't lead to extinction some humans will undoubtedly choose not to transcend. For people like that I can imagine it could be depressing, but otherwise I can't.
