It’s incredibly optimistic and egotistical to even think that humans will be around that long.

We won't be around, but something we turned into, or something we built. Maybe.

The timeframe of our demise really doesn’t leave much time for us to evolve or create anything.

Nobody can claim to have a clue about such a timeframe.

Even if every nation collapses into anarchy, that's a far cry from extinction.
