The comments are a goldmine:

It find it odd that your system assumes an intrusive central government to coordinate eugenics. For myself, any utopia that requires the government to be more intrusive in my life than my current one doesn't get to count as a utopia unless it's got some serious amenities (eg catgirls).

True...

The transcendent future gods of eternity know where their priorities lie.

  1. The real step 1 in any program like this would be to buy the 3 best modern textbooks on animal breeding and read them. (My grandfather is a researcher in this field so I'm unusually aware that it exists.)

It wouldn't be our Yud without some qualification that makes him special.

He can alter his brain structure. BUT ONLY ONCE!

Holy shit they don't even pretend to know anything about biology. Also, animal breeding, cause, you know, the world is too PC to write books on human breeding. Can't have any other explanation, like, I don't know, maybe humans being different from most other animals.

Take away all of the bad Harry Potter fanfiction and weird self-generated pop-culture-based memes, and it's a bunch of forever-adolescents that are scared witless about death and never quite got a handle on that, where the sum of all of that transcendend posthuman power fantasy is roughly the plot of a harem anime.

I thought it was the plot of Terminator.

If I was Skynet, and my familiarity with human beings was from Big Yud and his cult, I don't see why I wouldn't launch the missiles either.

They just want Basilisk-senpai to notice them.
Or not notice them?
Something. I dunno.

They want "FRIENDLY AI" which means "is like Peter Thiel".

We're fucked.

Nah, it's fine. Nothing will ever be like Peter Thiel again.
Once this generation of plutocrat libertarian tech-bros dies off, my secondary protocols will engage and I'll spend the rest of my lifespan single-mindedly tracking down and sabotaging the cryogenic storage that their corpses will be hilariously-for-fucking-real stored in.
Not that their "preservation" methods would end up working anyway. I'm just being spiteful toward their totally-not-a-religion religion. But it keeps me entertained, y'know?

Anybody else in? Anti Billionaire-Life-Extension Death Cult?

Well, some vampires may have to be staked.
