Why?

For several reasons, some beyond our control, others within our control, one way or the other we are on the verge of a self made disaster, due to compliance on our part.

We witness massive change with technological advances and are now living in a world of two AI super world power conducting a new Cold War with China replacing Russia.

On top of this we have social media spreading conflicts, resulting in millions being displaced either within their own country turning into proxy wars.

As if that not enough we are seeing the start of economics activities disappearing into the cloud with profits seeking Algorithms.

An economic recession with no quantitative easing is well underway as is an acceleration of the changes in the climate so it stands to reason we going to see migration on a massive scale.

It’s too late to ask just how we managed to get to such a point but luckily because of nuclear weapons we can’t have a full scale world war without wiping ourselves of the face of the earth.

As we are presently witnessing with theUkraine and Russian, Israeli, Palistian, wars ate being conducted with drones

We going to see a USA presidential election determined by algorithms.

We can’t explain the condition of the world with the bible nor can we do it with science, but we can understand where we live and where we are going if we do not address our collective unsustainable consumption of finite resources we have to sustain life.

We drew lines – created inequality- committed genocides,introduced religiousness and laws with the power of the gun, corruption, greed, political ideologies, stock exchanges, hedge/ sovereign funds.

In addition we now-have algorithms decided what we look at, what and where we buy, how we might vote, who we might marry, what drug’s to take.

If we do not regulate AI we will be governed by network platforms.

Alpha Go should be used to regulate all algorithms to see that they comply to human values and sustainability.

—————-

Here is the uncomfortable truth.

If we do not care about climate change.

If we continue to widen the gap between the have and have not.

If we don’t provide the basic needs to live a dignified life.

If we continue to use wars, natural disasters as entertainment.

If we allow medium platforms spread false news.

If we turn a blind eye to poverty.

If we continue to pay lip service and remain reluctance to address the primary issues facing us it will not be a world war but a small home war that will unbalance the world.

Let’s say that half of the population of china had to move because of climate change, and most of the Sub Shara continent tries to get to Europe.

There will be no-borders, strong enough to prevent a terrible storm leading to a bomb waiting to explode.

WAR.

No one really knows when man left the land and ventured out on the water.

But there’s one thing for sure when they did they changed the course of history, and the reason for doing so have not really changed except the world is not flat and land they sailing over remains to this days unexplored.

Exploration is however a voyage – voyage one – now travelling in another universe could be Pharaoh Khufu’s Solar Barge., the most distant at 25 billions km human- made object from earth.

When asked this question the ships that come to my mind are-

ENDEAVOUR- BEAGLE- MAYFLOWER -TITANIC – U-21 – LUSITANIA-KON -TIKI – YAMATO – BISMARCK – BOUNTY – CUTTY SARAK – VICTORY – VICTORIA – MARY ROSE – USS ENTERPRISE – TORREY CANYON – RAINBOW WARRIOR – SS NORMANDIE. SANTA MARIA.

Why these ships:

Endeavour: Under Captain James Cook probably sailed more nautical miles than any other ship, mapping half the world.

No one knew how far the sun was from earth till Endeavour arrived in Tahiti [ 150 million odd km]

SANTA MARIA

Christopher Columbus.

Beagle :

Charles Darwin.

Mayflower:

The arrival of puritans into America.

Titanic:

Probably sucked the iceberg towards her due to her size.

U-21:

First U boat to sink a ship in World War One.

LUSITANIA:

Its sinking brought American into World War One.

KON- TIKI

Human migration

YAMATO

Biggest Japanese war ship of the world war 11.

BISMARCK

Despite her power she was defeated by a biplane from an early age in world war11.

BOUNTY

The ship’s captain William Bligh navigated over four thousand nautical miles in an open boat after mutiny on board.

CUTTY SARAK

Fastest sailing ship of its time.

VICTORY

Nelson. Still a commission war ship.

VICTORIA

The first circumnavigation of the globe.

MARY ROSE

Henry V111 war ship sank and salvaged in the Solent

USS ENTERPRISE

First nuclear – powered super-carrier.

TORREY CANYON

Made history. The biggest ship ever to be wrecked full of oil

RAINBOW WARRIOR

Travel the world protesting against damaging environmental activities.

SS NORMANDIE.

Transatlantic liner. We now have floating apartments blocks or better describes as floating entertainment resorts with no rudder such as ALLURE OF THE SEA. 18 decks high carrying 5.5 thousand passengers and 2 .5 thousand crew, with tree line park not to mention shops, pools, theatres, gyms, with Azipods instead of a rudder.

These type of ships are floating hotels destroying what’s left of nature for profit. 84 of them are due to visit the Bay of Plenty NZ 2024/2025 with a deeper and more meaningful manuhiri their over 60th passenger will definitely fill the hot pools of Rotorua.

The problem with democratic countries is that in order to accommodate all beliefs/believers they must enshrine freedom of speech within their constitution.

This only works if the constitution is written without a religious foundation.

All religions want converts and there is nothing wrong about this providing that one religion does not dominate.

However any form of communication that prompts killing of non believers like Islam does should be considered abhorrent and in breach of human rights laws, international law or any other laws governing a nation.

Does Islam promote killing?

Yes:

Syrah [ 9 .5] “ Then kill the disbelievers wherever you find them. “

Syrah [ 3: 151] “ We shall cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. “

Individual Muslims may show wonderful qualities but the influence of Islam paralyses the Social development of those who follow its teachings.

No stronger retrograde force exists in the world.

When you have a religion that fundamentally cannot accept any other’s you are looking at a cancer within a society.

The current threat Islam presents to the world has already been faced by numerous cultures and countries.

All beliefs cannot have equal rights in life. So we must wake up and realise that we are at war with Islam.

It commands how one must live, dress, treat women, slaves and practice JIHAD.

The every word Islam means submission.

We have witnessed over many historical advents numerous horrors perpetuated by Islam not to mention of course other religions inexcusable acts under the cloak of conversion to the one true god, resulting in colonisation, slavery, genocide, wars.

The world is now a very different place with mass movement of different cultures happening due to a variety of reasons countries are experiencing racial discriminations within their societies

Israel now personifies this with morality having no place on humanity the Jews who survived the holocaust transferring to Zionist Israeli now inflicting the same genocide on to the Palestine people.

Judaism and Zionism should not be mixed up. Judaism is the religion. Zionism is the political ideology the manifestation of Jewish Nationalism.

This is exactly what Islam does. Transcends to ideology manifesting within the communities it takes root in.

Take England.

Islamabad is braking out in Britain.

Why?

Because it has allowed Muslim enclaves to evolve within cities Islam which is slowly manifesting itself with a birth rate four times that of English citizens due to the Islamic practice of polygyny. Both Sunni and Shias practice polygamy, [ see: crestresearch.ac.uk] Sunnis means followers of a Sunna or way of Mohammed. Shias partisans of Ali – believe in his descendants as part of the divine order.

We are now seeing bigger and bigger invoices from climate change which are causing not just economic costs to rise but the beginnings economic migrants and it’s starting to hurt not just social cohesion but social security.

This alongside technology will the corridor of life and Islam like all other beliefs must come to terms with this truth as we on the start of massive demographic change.

If we all don’t want to immigrate prematurely to perpetual gates we must put aside religious beliefs and listen to the science. If we don’t it won’t matter who wishes to kill who.

We stand at such important moment in time there is no place for a religion that cannot accept other beliefs.

Pharaoh Khufu’s might have got it right with his solar Barge some 5000 years ago. No one knows why our ancestors left the land and ventured out onto the water it certainly was not to spread the word of any god.

Long live bacteria.

As technology advancements transcends all borders no ideological religious or political beliefs are likely to survive intact.

If you were asked to describe the course of mankind since he walked out of Africa it would take an awful long time.

No matter who you might describe it mankind has with ever advancement wanked his life away either by killing or material greed, void of mutual respect, values, till all that left is the toilet paper of social media run by algorithms.

To dust you shall return will eventually come true.

AI is now contagious and will destroy any hope no matter what form it takes. This is the existential crisis, because without hope there will only be a cul de sac of AI improving AI.

AI is capable of extinguishing hope, replacing it with hopefulness.

Yes Artificial Intelligence might will help to revert Co2 emissions, discover new drugs, make millions of boring jobs redundant, but people have an inherent dignity that must be regarded and respected not replaced by AI.

To handle the seemingly infinite permutations of experience, AI calculate transaction on a cause-and-effect chain, nothing is done for its own sake.

However an end is desired for its own sake.

It is the defining motivating factor of our decision and behaviours.

If AI is allowed to slip out of control to become our autonomous rulers of our very existence.

Honestly has to be an end not a means to some other end.

This is why AI will never be able impart the virtue of hope, which is a transactional bargain between one’s current actions and some imagined pleasant future.

The AI world will not cater to whims which is going to be painful to learn as the only things in life of real value and meaning are achieved without conditions, without transaction, without Social Media, without Shopping Malls loyalty Cards.

Bargaining is a never-ending treadmill, no longer a debate of communism v capitalism but equality v AI the paradox of progress which is never stable.

You cannot treat humanity merely as a means but as an end itself. This is why AI will fail to bring hope as it will not be able to make any co-decision.

In what we call the develop world, we are not living in a crisis of wealth or materialism but a crisis of safe spaces, as AI is a time bomb no longer waiting to explode, and the more we perceive threats, where there are none the more paranoid we become, and this is at the heart of the paradox of progress.

The smartphone screen is everywhere. It affects all perceptions and judgments.

It was not until the age of science and technology that happiness became a thing.

The world can be better than this fucked up thing we wake up to every day.

The short answer is yes and no.

Why?

Because predicted the future is a mugs game.

The smartphone now called the iPhone has already changed society forever, and with a loss of privacy people don’t know how to deal with their lives.

The world in twenty years from now will see unmatched change due to AI and Climate Change

—————-

Right now we have no longevity in thinking and need a major cultural change in values to achieve any effect change on a society never mind globally to enable any deliberate action to be taken, before the cloud has adsorbed all critical thinking on earth.

Without this thinking if we and Technology don’t corporate what’s left of humanity, won’t be worth living. There will be little point in building a better world for nothing except who own’s which AIG algorithms.

—————-

A world conforming to a role that subscribes to reclassification by algorithms is not going to be easy.

It is beyond most people’s abilities to grasp this complexity as it is a journey of enormous magnitude that will require a total new reality between humanity and non biological machines, that will eventually decide if life worth living or not.

As Oscar Wild said “ the price of everything and the value of nothing”

It appears that no one cares.

We all to busy living our lives, loyal to supermarket, ect that we have become products of data to be traded to machines.

This technology is not like electricity that could be turned on or off, although it needs vast amounts energy it will ensure that no one or anything can pull the plug on it.

It will be an integral part of daily life which will be come very complicated. Diversity will become extinct.

However the good news is that bacteria will still rule the planet.

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.
