Superintelligence by nick bostrum is about this and is fantastic. I actually forgot I read this book a few years ago until reading this post reminded me. An incredibly interesting book about the possibilities of intelligence (paths through bio hacking, AI, etc)

Many of my health & fitness colleagues are finding themselves out of work. The next big question is, will they ever go back to a gym or health club.
