On some level, the question really comes down to what kind of successors we want to create; they aren't going to be us, either way.
That depends on whether you plan to die.
If I didn't, the person I become ten thousand years from now isn't going to be me; I will be at most a distant memory from a time long past.
It will still be more "me" than paperclips.
Than paperclips, yes. Than a paperclip optimizer?
Well... ten thousand years is a very, very long time.
