We are not data. This is the reason why we are seeing anxiety, disconnection, and confusion rising across every age group?
According to Yuval Noah Harari, “this won’t be just another year of rapid technological progress — it could be the moment our minds begin to strain under changes we can no longer fully process.
A predictable future.
Because we are slowly losing the three psychological pillars that sustained human stability for thousands of years.,
A sense of personal agency.
Coherent life stories that give meaning to our choices .
As AI reshapes identity, algorithms quietly influence behavior, and the traditional sources of meaning — religion, nation, shared truth — begin to fragment, many people won’t even realize what’s happening to them… until the effects become impossible to ignore.”
His assessment is bleak and that’s without addressing climate change.
It begs the question have we all gone senile.
Perhaps it’s time the international court issued some more arrests warrant.
To date these individuals include former President of Sudan Omar Al-Bashir, President of Russia Vladimir Putin, and Prime Minister of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu.
Perhaps it’s time that the Donald Trumps of this world should be added.
He is happily lining his pockets with anti climate change actions, starting a war with Venezuela, supporting Mr Netanyahu, and tearing what’s left of Democracy apart.
And why is Bashar al-Assad who gassed his own people not on the wanted list.
Have we all gone insane?
We are allowed algorithms to run our lives.
We know they’re shaping outcomes all around us. But most of us have no idea what they are — or how we’re being influenced by them.
You’re memories and remembering them over and over in your head are all you have and if you lose that there’s nothing left to stay alive for.
Get out there and experience the world you in and on.
Artificial intelligence must work for all of us not just the rich. You have to be a special kind of dumb to think that
If our information apparatus were designed to prioritize what is actually important rather than what generates the most controversy, there would be a lot more coverage and discussion about AI and a lot less about the latest culture war outrage.
But it’s not and so, people have no idea what’s about to hit them. They don’t even realize that humans may no longer exist in several years. My only advice to anyone reading this is to make the most of the remaining time we have left before shit hits the fan. It won’t last.
All comments appreciated. All like clicks and abuse chucked in the bin.
