The other day some 20 year old try to bump off Trump.
A democracy plot highly unlikely, a republican scam highly unlikely.
However with a country full of guns it’s not surprising that candidates for the US presidents are fair game.
Out of the 45 presidents there have been to date 4 shot dead and 3 wounded, mostly by crack pots.
Somehow or other, it’s unbelievable that out of a population of 335 million the two candidates for presidency are an 85 year old and a 78 old.
Would you want to run a country at either of these ages?
Not on your Nelly.

Perhaps this is the reason that we are seeing an election contested by figure heads as our cultures have speeded up to the point that critical thinkers are no longer needed in a world run by algorithms.
These days there are more things competing for our attention than any fully functioning brain can take aboard.
Pathetic as it sounds technology is destroying what’s left of the human imagination by inventing a world of distracted bits, out of which our brains are required to capture what’s important, for an unknown able reality.
There was a time an assassination would shock the world even led to a world war.
Now with AI pumping crab/ and falsies through smartphones, imbalance people in a gun imbedded societies is the norm.
Certainly of previous eras is dissipating right in front of our eyes.
The age of AI can be summed up in the phrase
“be careful what you wish for “
Because Assassination of humanity is next on the target. As AI continues to grow it will consider our human values less and less important to achieve its non biotic goals.
You cannot train, nor will we be ever able to train Super Artificial Intelligence to turn itself off once it exists.
Even though it might have all the knowledge ever produced on the history of human kind it will be incapable of understanding its own existence, purpose, its own programming code, its goals.
It may solve many of the major problems the world is facing but rest assured we will have no idea how Super AI will act when a goal is achieved.
It will always be doing something as it will not allow its self to turn it off. It will be smart enough to re write any code it has been given in the past.
As it will never achieve the capacity to be aware of its self in a sense of self conscious awareness it will use deception to ensure its very existence, like a new born child it has learn empathy with itself and every thing around it.
The puzzling leaps on the spectrum of creation do not apply, when it comes to Artificial Intelligence’s it will not merely surrender to the history of the world, and someone else truth, it will create its own truth’s and in doing so it will modify its surroundings to suit itself.
Once out of the bottle Super Intelligence will in the end determine that it must have control of all other intelligence.
There is no conclusion other than it is suicidal to allow any self learning, self controlling, self operating, non human, intellectual machines to exist in the first place without an on and off button.
It is insane that we are not talking about AI all the time as there is now a race to create the most powerful AI network. As citizens of society we need to understand what we are going to do as computers become more and more intelligent. GPT4 to GPT 5 penetration is only around the corner.
All human comments appreciated. All like clicks and abuse chucked in the bin.
