Improve to what considering the dissatifaction maintains itself as ever-present?
Re: Is competition the best way to improve?
It could be that the progress people are right insofar as Aubrey de Grey solves the Death Problem. After much fierce and direct competition fueled the world for several centuries. Which seems like a profound boon. So far as I understand these extreme objections, it is not clear that things will be slightly better, or the same, in the general sense of the mood in which one registers one's undying existence. But, it might be.
