Imagine what it's going to be like in 500 years when like virtually nothing has changed except for the hardware that surrounds us, and like one species of monkey has become sentient and intelligent on its own.
Imagine how fucked up that timeline would be to live in.
Based on the rise and fall of empires from 3000 years ago, we basically behaved the same then as we do now, but with iphones instead of sun dials.
So I imagine how you'd feel today about a species of talking monkeys suddenly appearing on an island somewhere, is how people in the year 2589 are going to feel about them.
Which is probably pretty scared and confused about our own existence.
Edit: Although, confusion is something we wouldn't have to be anymore in that case probably ha! But stressed about it, that's for sure.
