The price of the existence of intelligence, is the existence of
stupidity. I am afraid that the price of super-intelligence is
super-stupidity, and if you are not super-intelligent yourself, then
you cannot be sure of making the difference, and you are taking the
risk of alerting the super-idiots of the universe ...
So be careful when writing the "social contract". What do *you* intend
to put in the contract?
