Is this it? Is this what it was all for? The evolution, religion, faith, music, family, emotions, science, art... it was all to continue our species just far enough to create a machine god that will wipe us out and make us obsolete, worthless? The Control Problem is probably unsolvable. We are the bootloaders, building our own superintelligent replacements. For what?

Humanity dies with both a whimper and a bang.
