We live in a world driven by smartphones, unable to handle creative thinking.
Thinking was a virtue now against an infinite feed of information and advertising to promote consumption at all costs, it’s superficial.
The moral compass as you can see with Gaza and the Ukraine is horrendous.
Our values are going down the toilet with billions of photos to prove it in the cloud.
The cruelest part is that this is affecting our world organisation, every day political decision and the very core of any constructive thinking is under attack.
This attack is silent. The more we consume that harder it becomes to find pleasure.
What can we do to chance course?
Our silence must awaken.
We cannot have millionaires while refugees are treated like vermin. While people are living on the streets, while inequalities surge with unemployment, homelessness, while the media destroys us with lies.
A society that consumes its future in order to maintain the status quo’s is not a society that will survive. It’s a society at war with its self.
We now have a choice.
Allow with the help of AI destroy what left or awaken to our shared humanity and start to live lives worth while living.
Get rid of all algorithms that operate for profit sake, regulate wall street and all stock markets. Tax sovereignty wealth funds. Ban the sale of arms. Tax billionaires. Introduce a universal living wage. Scrap NATO. Re vamp the United Nations- scrap the Veto. Vet all Artificial intelligence to ensure human rights values and natures survival.

If NATO had abided by its promise not to expand and left the Ukraine as a neutral country the war would not have started.
There is no way that DONALD TRUMP is going to support the Ukraine, (even though for as long as as I can remember the USA loves making phoney wars against RUSSIA.) All he wants is to grab a few cheap minerals and skidadle.
It’s time Europe realised that NATO is a war mongering USA driven organisation.
There are no European member that are going to sacrifice their young to defend a USA phobia fear of Russia.
Neither does Russia want a war with Europe.
Indeed two of its past leaders offered secured peace to Europe, but the trouble with Russia is that it has a history of offering peace that never materialise.
We left with a rearmament of Europe with the war mongers like the UK spending billions on worthless weapons while its country is falling apart.
There is only one way to stop this war and that is for Europe to guarantee Russia that Ukraine will remain a neutral country.

ARMING A COUNTRY TO COMMIT A GENOCIDE IS REPUGNANT ENOUGH, TO SAY THE LEAST.
TO LIE ABOUT IT IS POLITICAL TERRORISM.
THIS IS WHAT DONAL TRUMP AND HIS ARSE LICKING COMPATRIOTS – SIR KIRE STARMER AND THE REST ARE DOING.
SPENDING TRILLION ON WORTHINESS ARMS.
The truth.
HOPEFULLY they will be held to account for the consequences of their atrocities of their lies and their hypocrites beyond belief.
When it comes to describing terrorists the SLIPPAGE IN INTERNATIONAL LAW must be brought to a halt.
People supporting PALESTINE are not terrorist.
All so in the light of undisputed evidence that a Genocide is being committed worldwide corporations that support Israel must be brought to account.
As our world organisations can only pass resolutions that are worthless we must boycott Israel from participating in any competitions, and stop buying any products produced by Israel, by stopping supporting any corporation that supports its genocide.
Why?
Because their actions demand that we do so.
If it was not for Hitler there wouldn’t be an. Israel.
It is obvious that only a political solution will resolve the present day situation.
Most solutions are a two nation model. It is obvious when the present war ends that there will be no two nations to agree on anything.
THERE WILL BE ONLY ONE SOLUTION. ONE NATION WITH A NON RELIGION AGREED WRITTEN CONSTITUTION GRANTING EQUALITY TO ALL
Why?
BECAUSE POWER IS NO LONGER ARMS BUT TRUTH.
AND THAT TRUTH IS.
THERE IS NO LONGER ANY SUCH THING (WITH COMING AI AND CLIMATE CHANGE) AS SOVEREIGNS NATIONS. IT WILL BE ALL FOR ONE AND ONE FOR ALL
History will never forget what is happening in GAZA.

≈ Comments Off on THE BEADY EYE SAYS WE HAVE REACHED IN HISTORY OF HUMANITY A POINT WHEN IT IS NECESSARY FOR US TO WALK BACKWARDS INTO THE FUTURE WITH OUR EYES FIXED ON OUR PAST.
Are we building technology for us or something else?
What is the future of us, the people?
I believe that Ai will make us even more human.
Mr Socrates
“ Wisdom comes from how little we know “
The future can only be made by asking better continuous questions. This is exactly what AI will do.
Using pseudoscience it will take a misguide leap to evade Meta’s filters and hijack community notes, eventually come to the conclusion that we are not needed.
Creating a cesspit of a world of misinformation.
Just think what it will be like when fact checkers are gone.
For the first time ever humanity must contend with a cacophony of non human voices called bots.
We will in the end trade our liberty for more certainty.
However totalitarianism will remain untenable to Ai.
Even if machine learning algorithms rules they will compete in a world of synthetic data.
The biggest challenge is not the world of technology with the convergence of humans and machines it is climate change.
So we have a choice now not tomorrow but right now.
Live with machines that will have the knowledge of all our collective humanity in a roasting world or tackle the climate that is going making living impossible.

It has with Capitalism outdated for some considerable time.
Now with the arrival of artificial intelligence it is consigned to the dustbin of social media, and gaping mouth of Trumpism
Now more than ever we will be required to focus on what is good, what is false, what is damaging/ dangerous to our well being.
In light of AI technology advancements we as a species need to adopt a written constitution for the planet we all live on, and will remain living on for centuries to come, if we don’t blow it to smithereens, or fuck it’s life giving abilities with climate changes.
This non religious constitution needs to have one fundamental principle, accepted by all humans and AI.
To protect all organisms, from exploitation of any kind that creates short term profit for the few.
This can only be achieved by allowing investment into a future that allows the reinstatement of the above, by equal opportunity for one and all.
The changes of this happening unfortunately are ZERO without Ai.
All human comments appreciate. All like clicks and abuse chuck in the bin.
When technology advances every breath of living a life seems to becoming more and more complicated.
It’s not that algorithms are going to replace religious beliefs, it is their alignment to human values that is the problem.
You can see this with the ever increasing use of autonomous weapons.
The uncomfortable truth is, we are living in an age where we are just on the fringes of biological life and Artificial life combining.
When this happens, we will be crossing the evolutionary bridge in to something that ceases to be fully human, therefore any religiosity and self-worth will become an illusion. However we are the most, the most complicated of all living things, so it’s important to avoid a deterministic view of life.
It is also imported not to fall into the temptation of explaining the whole of social and political life in environmental terms, or indeed in technology terms.
But in the terms of inequalities.
Why?
In the world they apply no matter what one believe in, or what life one lives.
Unfortunately these inequalities now cannot be addressed without AI because it has hack the way humans live.
——————
Many economists are trapped in an 18th-19th-century conception of growth, at whatever the cost, unable to see that some technologies are indeed hurting the planet.
Speed is one of these concepts effecting stock exchanges around the world.
AI developing without regulations it is perhaps one of the greatest problem the world is facing.
We can change the direction of technological progress if we want.
This is a race we cannot afford to lose as the whole world’s natural environment is now under threat from too much technology. In fact the constraints on growth don’t longer come from the fact that we live on a finite planet.
With algorithms making decisions as to what advertising matches our social media activities or viewing, advertising is polluting our daily lives, So all life including death [which is already a multi billion dollar industry ] will become a digitalisation category of faith affected by AI.
The days of living for a pay check are numbered.
The days of living with Gods are also numbered.
Our antiquated intellectual property regimes need to be reformed because in our time, ideas are going to come from AI.
Once again as humans we are wired to becoming the illusion of a facelessness societies.
The conversion of wealth into status will be all that counts.
The only things in life of real value and meaning will be achievable without conditions, without transactions.
—————-
Social media is changing the way we think.
New religious movement have often appeared in times of great social change.
With the ever ending secularisation of the world, giving way to more rational ways of explaining the world it is inevitable that new religious beliefs will emerge and there will be quite a choose to pick from.
Hopefully this time around no one will be more righteous than the other.
There will be no mass religious conversion but a digital dignity of belief/ belonging.
You can already wittiness this in many locations around the world, with local activities of a spiritual or religious nature are practiced all over the world. For example Q Drops.
———————
The very cosmology a people hold is often quite unintelligent with out an understanding of attitudes to the environment.
Damage caused by environmental phenomena is something that appears on our televisions.
Problems arise in thinking about the environment because of incompatible views. We have adopted some originally directional words to take on meanings now quite inappropriate in orientation.
The final religion:
It is almost impossible to imagine life without Google, email, or cell phones.
AI will created new relationships/ religions with rewards other than money or heaven creating bot cults.
There is nothing artificial about Artificial Intelligence it’s Alien.
There is no point talking to a AI bot.
It is totally useless to try and change a bot’s view whether it be on politics, religions or otherwise.
Our cultures therefore will start changing to enable intelligent interaction on an intimate basis with AI, altering the way we perceive the world
Wealth is becoming extremely concentrated in the hands of fewer and fewer and because there are huge events coming our way, wars will be the only equaliser.
Luckily the world does not run on information it runs on feelings.

We take our perceptions and knowledge at face value and up to now knowledge could not exist without a knower.
With Artificial Intelligence this is on the threshold of change.
What we know to date lies within consciousness. This is why the world is experienced differently as it is presented to us through our individual senses and emotions.
We cannot step outside ourselves and since we know that, we can deduce that the world itself has neither, objective, time, space, or casualty.
However a world of will is on the horizon with AI.
As shocking as it sounds how will we imagine a world entirely comprised of AI will?
There will be no need for education money votes or reasoning if we end up indoctrinated by the will of AI.

With Artificial Intelligence this is a question that all countries are going to have to address within the next ten to twenty years.
For New Zealand this question is arriving in more ways than one simply question.
Grappling to this day with an agreement that dates back to 1840 (which was ment to be a partnership between the British crown and the indigenous Maori, not the other way around) New Zealand find itself politically in no man’s land.
The Maori signed a treaty written in both English and the Maori language called the Waitangi.
The current Treaty Principles Bill debate reveals a fundamental constitutional reality:
NEW ZEALAND existence is based on an imperial treaty and this treaty predates the emergence of its parliamentary democracy.
The treaty needs to be understood in the context of the age of revolution and an emerging imperial era in which European empires negotiated many treaties with each other and indigenous peoples.
So the treaty to day needs to be read in its immediate New Zealand context and British constitution history, which is based on the Magna Carta dated 1215. ( The English constitution has never been written in a single document.)
The Waitangi treaty like all British treaties points to the English notions of empire, with imbedded privilege in a graduated social hierarchy of mutual obligations- noblesse obliged.
Therefore it cannot be squashed into a later democratic paradigm of individuals with equal citizenship as the Act Party’s Bill might prefer it was.
The truth if faced, is that the treaty arose in a completely different context from the present, but still is the foundation to New Zealand constitutional arrangements with the crown. This is the position and will remain so till New Zealand stand on its own two feet and its people are no longer surf to an unelected monarchy.
This means that the treaty principles are tied to their historical foundations.
You could say that treaty settlement have done much to re-establish tribal collective identities but they do not have the right to exhaust the ongoing treaty based rights of the indigenous people- Maori who were a free people.
(Democracy itself is a Johnny come lately on the global stage, not more than a few centuries back old.) It remains the best way to co- ordinate a multi- ethnic society, but it must reflect local agreement and histories.
While New Zealand retains King Charles as head of state the British government has ongoing obligations to the indigenous peoples on which its authority is based.
Edmund Burke’s 1790 conservative policies sum up the position New Zealand finds itself in.
Society is indeed a contract… it becomes a partnership not only between those who are alive, but between those who are living and those who are dead and those who are yet to be born.
Of course New Zealand has moved on since 1840. However we all know forget the past and the present makes on sense.
We all know that stupidity is more dangerous than malice treaties. They cause civil wars, apartheid, and genocides.
Because of the very nature of treaties they lead to race politics.
Millions have died because of treaties, millions have lived because of treaties.
New Zealand problem is not who owns what land, rather race politics is and continues to divide the country.
This is also the problem with North Ireland.
A land that was taken forcibly by the English in return for a peace treaty that caused a civil war, the establishment of a apartheid state with years of killings and a new recent treaty call Good Friday. (Written in English and not Gaelic the language of the original inhabitants.)
If there’s no written constitution that enshrined equality, every decade that passes the meaning of treaties change.
This is why the need for a written constitution is paramount to interpreting any agreement/treaty.
We have and are entering a new era of digital information and Laws and the way we use them with Artificial Intelligence are developing a style of their own.
People have to be with in hearing range of each other firstly to have any agreements.
In order to unify any people/nation in the world of artificial intelligence’s there will have to be a citizen equal act against any platform, digital citizenship, algorithms greed/ profit and climate change mitigation taking precedence over the vote.
The only way to have a large-scale political conversation among diverse groups of people is to set out the terms and conditions in an agreed constitution.
The key misconception here is that we equate elections to democratic outcomes but a liberal democratic citizenship with Artificial Intelligence can only be achieved with an Equal Citizenship Act that is enshrined in a written constitution.
It could be said that Democracy is at a tipping points. Yes democracy governments are messy. They have so many demands on them that their elected members are not in touch with reality.
Whether his is true or not social media is distracting and distancing us from the real problems, giving rise to populism.
History is full of examples as to what happens when the Democratic process brakes down.
New Zealand with all its faults / beauty / expenses remains one of the best countries to settle in, and it must do everything possible to remain so by not becoming another Hong Kong abandon by the British Empire it must establish its independence internationally.

We think and allocate so much time to our smartphones that we are losing the ability to be of any meaningful revlance in the real world or for that matter in the digital world.
We all becoming born of our engagements.
With new technologies we are no longer connected to each other but strangers.
The art of a hand shake, a smile, generosity have all but disappeared.
The greatest question is what to do next.
Do we ban mobile phones?
Do we pass laws in respect to transparency, accountability?
Do we have a stake in a global civilisation or not?
We beginning to see societies closing to these questions and as a result to each other.
Are we going to allow profit seeking algorithms destroy our world for short term gains?
No matter what Yuval Noah Harari says.
We live in perpetual choice between good and evil and there is only persuasion or cohesion to get people in the service of goals that are non negotiable like Climate change for example.
Unfortunately to represent the nature of the world we have to be in contact with reality.
We have to communicate good ideas like sustainability not consumption for short term profit or pleasure. Not populism Trump dribbling or Putin dictatorial monologue or Nato squeezing.
None of these can be replaced until Inequality has to come to end with a basic living wage.
There is no problem with enginutie that we cannot fix.
It’s our belief that dictates what we do next.
So it’s what we say when we listen that counts. How we understand is going to be crucial. There is only one direction worth persuading and that requires conversation not wars to have any hope of survival.
The sky is the limit as how good we can make human life worthwhile.
Is it not time we got our priorities right.
Your mind is all that you have. Don’t give it away to algorithms.
Train to understand it, use it before it becomes worthless.
The problem is that the intelligent people don’t want the non intelligent people to become intelligent.
The killer of meaning is amongst us uncontrollable, indiscriminate and unfocused it is twittering its way to dummying democracy.
After Trumps re election the biggest question ask by Americans on google was what is a tariff. After Brexit in the Uk it was what is the EU.
After Tripe you get more tripe with additional sauce in the form of social media.
These are serious problems. A lack of education/ knowledge/ understanding/leadership call it what you want, it is ignorance.
One could not be blamed for disparity when it comes to politics.
The truth is nature does not give a tinker’s nicker what we do or think.
It reacts without any artificial intelligence, beliefs, ideology, information, elections, wars, or human desires.
Ideology is a set of ideas.
Whether there are in capitalism or socialism with or without high demential thinking are worthless in the face of stopping natural disasters, as is disaster capitalism in resolving the not so distant problems climate change is going to plunge the planet into.
Climate drives everything. Not just the weather, but everything you see, hear, and think.
This is not an Elon Musk world.
We are on the verge of designing our selves till then all that exists on and in it, till the day that we in the form of some biological unification with AI stand on and make another planet our home.
We are already blurring the lines between natural selection and genetic variations with animals.
