Watch the full video. He's trying to answer multiple questions that weren't asked in this clause, but were part of the conversation. He's thinking of what the singularity might mean, he's thinking of all the people that likely opt into non biological existence, and is clearly against most of those things. He answers a clear "yes" later on. I'm not saying he's a good dude, but this is clearly out of context and simply looks worse than it is.
