Does the success of autonomous spacecraft and the rise of AI render human involvement in future space exploration unnecessary?

Probably not.

Even were AGI & autonomous swarms of robot space drones to take over space exploration tomorrow, they'd probably want to take a few humans, and maybe some other species along—heck why not a biosphere or two?

Maybe not ‘necessary’ necessary, but still handy to bring along. How better to help young AI learn patience?

Why do men always bring up “the draft” (the last military draft was in 1972) when abortion rights are being discussed? - are they advocating that women ought to owe our bodies to the government? Should anyone owe their body to the state?
