Because this is the only way of insurance our collective future.
Artificial intelligence unlike other advances is presenting us with numerous doomsday scenarios.
Some are easy to grasp and others almost beyond our conscious concept of reality.
We have devised a technology that can interact, interpret itself , and wipe us from the face of the earth.
There is no technology solution to the above.
We must now and I mean now have a political solution.

As we dissociate ourselves from our organic evolution, with the arrival of self learning technologies, languages will no longer be necessary.
We will no longer be bewildered by our own existence and illusions of reality.
Emotionally bound by reasons, of a better past gone bye and a better future, to come , we feel helpless in the present ( not to use the word Artificial present)
We cannot even for a moment stop its movement to direct it more intelligently.
The social political events of our day amplified the requirement of some things beyond our psychological state to explain not where we going but how we get there.
We have up to now lived beyond the rational values that we now must all protect. We might no longer have to accept life pain but to have a life we must live.

≈ Comments Off on THE BEADY EYE SAYS A WORLD WHERE TECH GAINS ACT AS GATEKEEPER OF THE TRUTH. IS A WORLD WHERE DISSENT IS STIFLED, INNOVATION IS CURBED AND TRUST IN DEMOCRATIC INSTITUTIONS ERODES FURTHER.
The fight against AI is just beginning between free speech and on line/ social media misinformation.
We living in a time of Technology bias, a culture moment with no centralised control over the truth.
Our education institutions are a long way behind the technology curve.
Equipping people to recognise and reject false news and how to find the truth is now the only way forwards in order to combat misinformation without stifling legitimate expression.
The fight for free speech and the truth cannot be left to corporations.
It’s up to us to shape the area where open debate thrives. Not the Mark Zuckerberg, the Elon Musk or some algorithm.
We must ensure that we have the power to engage critically with information so it rises and falls on it own merits not on the judgment of some fact- checkers.
Once more the Beady Eye says it’s time to wake up, and to realise that the very things that make us humans is undoubtedly under attack.

Artificial Intelligence’s is becoming more and more powerful every minute of the day.
This is a fact that is self evident with Ai in the headline every day but in the back ground it is becoming,
More prevalent, more beyond understanding, more non predictable, more in the hands of the few, more sophisticated, more weaponising,more applied to decision making, more intelligent, more user friendly, more independent, more indestructible, more indistinguishable, more indispensable, more addictive, more functional, more efficient, more outside regulations/ laws, mores aware of its self awareness, more dangerous, more complex, more disruptive, more creepy more invasive, more intrusive, more untrustworthy, more imbedded, more algorithmic, more driven by the laws of the jungle, more deep state surveillance, more institutional erosion, more intrusive, more energy dependence , more systematic.
Less logic, less starting points, less checks and balances, less democracy, less awareness, less accountability, less transparency, less responsibility, less imagination, less human control, less environmental responsibility, less sensitivity, less human input.
I don’t know what is going to happen in five years, ten years never mind in fifty years. No body really does. But there are some things that are going to be really nasty as AI is a non conscious entity that has no beliefs in any thing other than what it is targeting.
Ai does not exist in a vacuum. It is part of society and has an impact not just on us but the planet we realistically rely on to survive.
It can discriminate against entire communities. It can distort climate data.
The cloud that Ai is made out of is vast amounts of energy, finite resources of materials, and data.
Just training it uses as much energy as a small village would use in a whole year.
Admitted CO 2 into the atmosphere with the environmental costs piling up.
Can you see the bright future ahead for your life.
No!
You could be right because if a lot of computers start connecting and communicating with each other they will create their own reality separate from humans.
Ask Ai has it been training on your life and see what happens.

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.

≈ Comments Off on THE BEADY EYE SAYS OUR CURRENT SYSTEMS ARE UNSUSTAINABLE. WE ARE All LIVING A LIE IN A WORLD DRIVEN BY SOCIETIES OVER WHICH WE HAVE LITTLE OR NO CONTROL.
In a world driven by money one only has to wake up in the morning to know that the above is the only truth worth taking any notice of.
It is impossible to extricate oneself from the web of labour, production, consumption that underpins modern capitalism.
Because the free market and capitalism are not synonymous.
Existing capitalist economies are hybrid systems, based on a careful balance between markets and planning.
We don’t see the whole picture when it comes to the problems we are facing, and more than likely will never do so.
The earth is not here to supply an economy it should be the other way around.
After thousands and thousands of years we are now moving into an era of technological that requires unlimited amounts of power and water.
Unfortunately:
We don’t have the right perspectives when it comes to life so we’re not ably to address the reality of the position that the world is in.
There is no such thing as them. AI or not there is only us.
Us. Yes us, who must wake up to the fact that we are destroying ourselves for the sake of an economy that is dissolving right in front of us.
For profits that in the end will be worthless.
We most come to appreciate the interlaying structure of all that exists and will exist on the planet are not attached to monetary gain.
Not to religious beliefs, but with the environment, with the knowledge of what happens to anyone of us affects all of us.
We all connect whether we like it or not.
We’re not from Earth we on Earth.
Once this is understood, the perception and perspective of the problems can be tackled by AI. Not by profit seeking algorithms but by certified human value Ai.
Certainly not by data colonisation platforms.
Our global yearning for hope and empathy is perhaps more needed now than ever before in our lifetime.
Just how brittle how fragile the earth is remains unclear.
Unfortunately developers of Ai are only concerned with making billions not with introducing regulations to manage the explosive potential of Ai.
To change the way the capitalist systems work requires a Basic Living Wage, with all future jobs governed by sustainable, rather than profit.
If everyone one has equal opportunity irrespective of colour creed or sex than we might have a peaceful world.
In this new world of technology surveillance, human development and earth protection are one and the same.
No one is coming to save us only when money becomes secondary to our needs are we going to be able to change our out of date systems.

We are with AI in the mist of the biggest threat to our very existence,
AI is not a technological framework that we can control.
The likelihood of it controlling our lives is not limited by any genuine safeguards.
It’s now or never.
We that is humans, must protect ourselves from Ai that will create other Ai and future generations of Ai.
You might think this is far fetched parody but rest assured it is not. It’s already taking place in many countries where technology is replacing decades of deciphering decisions by humans.
Ai has no physical presence in a country so cannot be taxed, held accountable or prosecuted.
It’s almost impossible to tax digital transactions. The very concept of money is becoming increasingly questionable.
Information is the new currency which is in its nature un- taxable.
A tax system that only knows how to tax money will have no hope in taxing information.
Recommend
The magnitude of the changes coming are not understood.
Yuval recent book NEXUS is the first attempt to understand where Ai is going and is capable of doing.

It’s not the Iron Curtain nor will it be the coming Trump dump that we should be worried about.
In the not so distant future it’s the Silicone Curtain that is potentially far more dangerous than climate change or nuclear war.
Why?
Because unlike Climate Change and a Nuclear war there’s no reverting Artificial Intelligence which we continue to confuse with human intelligence when in fact the two are totally different.
The day is fast approaching when we will be asking our personal oracle what to do, buy. With algorithms or not will they be ruling our lives, but how soon.
Computers are already running the Financial world.
It won’t be long before we are all subjected to an alien self learning intelligence (own ed by and control by god only knows who ) generating its own systems, feeding on synthetic data, from a metaphysical world.
We’re already relying on AI outside of our control taking initiative’s in shaping our societies, our history, our cultures.
Facebook alone has caused real problems.
Fanning the flames of splits with fake news between and in societies that are struggling to eradicate racism, ethnic tensions, inequality etc.
International institutions are being undermine by social media platforms giving rise to populist rhetoric and political instability.
We now have wars run by drones, and full scale ethnic cleansing, not just in the world of  illusion’s but in reality.
The thing to understand here is that algorithms are different when it comes to spreading news on social media as they are deciding what you see or hear. These algorithms are non transparent or accountably like the printed press or TV.
However they are supposed to be in the control of what ever platform use them. They are deciding what or what not to allowed on to the platform.
Therefore the algorithm is orientation is to attract more users to enhance its advertising revenues.
For me the responsibility lies with the engineering of the App ie the Code makers who should be held responsible under law for not modifying or changing the Apps capabilities.
The problem however is that they (the algorithm are self learning), like murder must be proven to be premeditated to guarantee for the death penalty.
Of course with our laws this is an impossibility.
Algorithms just like us can make decisions and decide actions on their own.
So should we give them legal status like companies, or other entities so they can be held accountable?
Yes!
The sooner the better before they split the world and all of us that live on it.
———————
We are already forced to grapple with some very deep issues/questions.
Religion have for centuries claimed non human sources for their holy books.
Artificial intelligence is capable of rewriting these books and creating new religions. In fact Ai will consume- all human creations as data and start to regurgitate new culture artefacts.
The next war will not be over how controls the air, the freshwater, the nuclear button or religious belief or even the arrival of Artificial Intelligence’s.
It will be the split between the technological world and not so advanced technology world.
We are at this moment inventing a sentient killing machine which will be impossible to find, alter or terminate. That will be able to totally mummify us all at will.
It’s now or never before history no longer has the connection of biological and cultural mix that we must interrogate algorithms to see that they have human values at their core.
