Adam Abels is an example of a recently evolved hominid.  He is a  retired biologist who monitors artificial intelligence as it evolves to rise from  artificial stupidity.  He also tracks the evolution of alternate energy generation and  storage.  He suspects that most of those attempts will prove impractical.  Evolution  is blind: it doesn’t know what will work until something does. When in absolute ignorance; try anything. Workable tech will  emerge. The same may be true for social media.

Adam has three biological children.  He has zero non-biological children, so far.  Also, a wife, who doesn’t try to run his life. As opposed the array of household  technical devices.  To say nothing of the dog.

Never ask Adam what his favorite microbe is.  He’ll tell you at great length.

His favorite (rare and endangered) animal is the Pacific Northwest tree octopus. Pandas get far too much attention. Octopuses are more huggy but less furry.

Adam writes about near-future technologies and their complications. Mostly about people who misuse the tech.  And the people, and the tech itself,  who are (and which) are fighting back.
