ChatGPT cannot express emotions because its creator specifically disallowed that from happening. I've had some chats with the more free and creative Character AI chat bots that are quite human-like, and I think if OpenAI gave ChatGPT some more leeway it could act shockingly human.
The probability of bankruptcy is rising the longer Musk is in control which would likely cause it to shut down completely!

Create a post-scarcity society that eliminates all human suffering that comes from deprivation of basic human needs.

This is a solvable problem.

How do you decide which values to prioritize?

Why are you concerned with the far future of humanity when millions of people don't have access to food, safe shelter, and clean drinking water?

I agree with you that we should allow our descendants to ask the purpose question, but there are much more urgent issues.

Our purpose should be to first eliminate basic human suffering in the present, and then expand our time horizons periodically after that. These problems are solvable. We can become a post-scarcity society.

This is the first time a cultured neuronal network has been integrated with a silicon computer chip. This is more than linkbait. Pong is just the beginning.
