That topic is full of a lot of confusion and everyone seems to have different intuitions.

I for one am not proper utilitarian because it seems unnaturally simple (when we have no reason to suspect that human value should be simple).

But an additional awesome person seems like a good thing, if it doesn't make the world suck more.

I am (as much as I can) vigorously trying to make lots of money to fund positive-singularity research.
