For once the YT algorithm got it right! There are certainly some planes in this vid I've never seen before, some very familiar and some I've heard about but not seen like the Li-2 which was the Soviet built version of the Douglas DC-3.

You are right, but if an independent intelligence evolves and passes some evolutionary stages (sorting out "Asimov's laws" in the process), why should it behave 'positive' towards mankind. It does not have to be 'evil' to think of mankind as useless, and more of a hindrance than an asset.

The improvement in speed of computing and acting will be exponential - I know that no one even seems to understand what this means (in case of covid etc.), but he the advance in technology, 'ethics' and understanding will, if positive, probably end in just leaving mankind behind. In every possible way.

It's hard to argue with that, I can't even imagine what the world is going to be like in a few decades when it looks like robots are going to be able to do almost every job a human can better and more efficiently. Possible outcomes seem to range from a "great new era" to "the end of us"!

I agree. A big improvement over the traditional pontoon bridge crossing technique.

Hmm, I'm still not too sure if I am doing it right, I will try a few more times before I get professional help!

The swivel at the end is very hard!
