THE BEADY EYE ASKS WHY IS IT SO DIFFICULT TO GET HUMANS TO BELIEVE IN ANYTHING?

( Five minute read)

Truth is truth, regardless of belief.

It can feel incredibly frustrating when you present clear facts, solid data, or even personal experiences, only to watch someone completely brush them off.

It makes you wonder: Are we just hardwired to be stubborn?

That people don’t believe a fact doesn’t make it untrue, nor does an idea being believed by millions or even billions of people make it true.

The main reason why it is so difficult is that human brains evolved to protect our survival and our social status, not to act as objective, flawless calculators of truth.

Because truth is truth while belief exists only in the absence of knowledge of what the truth is.

We don’t judge information based purely on whether it’s true; we judge it based on what accepting it will do to our social standing.

 If a new truth threatens a person’s political alignment, religious community, or family ties, their brain registers that truth as a threat.

They will reject the fact to protect the relationship.

When people are presented with facts that contradict their core beliefs, it doesn’t just fail to convince them—it often makes them double down on their original stance.

We actively hunt for tiny scraps of information that prove us right, while completely ignoring mountains of evidence that prove us wrong.

I swarm by almighty god that the evidence I shall give is the truth and nothing but the truth.

However if you want to change someone’s mind, arguing with raw facts rarely works.

Because.

Beliefs are tied to emotion and safety, a person usually has to feel respected, safe, and socially secure before their brain will allow them to lower its defenses and accept a new truth.

When all of this comes to things like climate change it is no wonder we have had climate conferences after conferences.

Unfortunately these conferences focus on the symptoms rather than the cause.

We cannot invent our way out of climate change.

The truth and nothing but the truth is that climate change is now a product to be traded to the highest bidder.

New thechnogicale innovations will deepen the awaiting Catastrophes, because in this highly competitive industry there exists a deep ingrained subterranean culture of its own.

Even pure fantasy is built from reality.

We cannot reconstruct what we have not experienced. 

This boundary is what protects us from pure hallucination.

————————

It is the difference between a mind grounded in the world and a system generating things from nothing.

The past has a ground truth, constructed by micro organisms that converted poisonous gas into oxygen, which we all rely on for our existence.

Your reconstruction may well be faithful to what happened, or it can drift, and felicity measures the distance.

The future has no such ground. 

You can lead a human to knowledge, but you cannot make he or she think.

When you imagine the future you are superimposing your existence, your expectations, your experiences, into an arrangement that has not happened, with nothing to correct you but the realism of the pieces themselves.

A child born in the next decade will be living in an artificial generated world.

A post human era .

Instead of carrying smartphones, people might integrate technology directly into their bodies.

Brain-computer interfaces could allow us to share thoughts, memories, or skills instantly without speaking.

The idea that a person’s consciousness could be transferred into a digital network, allowing them to exist without a physical body at all.

If human ever managed to leave the planet over thousands of years, living in low gravity or under different suns would naturally cause humans to evolve into entirely different species.

The Beady Eye says. If we are to avoid more wars. The redistribution of wealth must start now.

Tags

( Four minute read)

We are living in a world of technological advancement, with inequality growing on a scale not seen since slavery was abolished.

We elect people to represent us, because only living entities have goals:

To find food, to reproduce, to survive, sometimes simply to experience good things. 

The tragedy is with the imminent arrival of General Artificial Intelligence it will be too late to do anything about the inequalities that exits, never mind what’s over the horizon.

———————-

Wealth is being weaponised, and the Ukraine war with Russia shows that standing armies are out of date.

Governments get weaker and weaker year upon year, eroding quicker than their manifesto.

Spending money they don’t have on futures that don’t understand or can ill afford to comprehend.

Because their tax returns are dismissing year upon year, as profit seeking algorithms that have no sources can make profits disappear into the cloud.

—————————-

We know that massive changes to employment are coming down the line.

To combat these changes redistribute of wealth must start now.

This can only be achieved by governments nationalising their countries sources of wealth and introducing with new laws governing compulsive purchases orders.

I am not talking about income. I am talking about property.

——————-

Proponents argue that extreme inequality hurts growth because the wealthy tend to save their money, whereas putting money into the hands of lower- and middle-class citizens immediately boosts consumer spending and drives the economy.

This is going to-be no longer the case

The biggest challenge in wealth redistribution is balancing equity (fairness) with efficiency (growth).

This argument is also with the current revolution in technology coming to a cull de sack.

Just look at Elon Musk or Donald Trump-

How grotesque it is to see one man owning trillions while the other lines his own pockets, while wasting billions of tax payers dollars.

—————————

There isn’t a single “best” way of achieving redistribution, because every method comes with trade-offs between economic equality and economic growth.

Collecting the money is only half the battle; how it is spent determines how effectively wealth is redistributed.

Taxes are enhireantly disliked and so complex that more money is spent on advoiding them than paying them.

———————

Instead of letting the market create extreme inequality and trying to fix it later via taxes, “pre-distribution” changes the rules of the economy so wealth is shared more evenly from the start.

Setting a legal floor for wages ensures workers take home a larger share of a company’s revenue.

Breaking up monopolies and fostering competition prevents massive corporations from artificially driving down wages or inflating prices for consumers.

—————————

While demand on Governments tax coffers shrinkand demand goes up exponentially.

The equality gap between the rich and poor widens year upon year.

The question is how to go about looking at fresh ways to raise the funds to bring assets back in public ownership.

They could be funded-by a lottery system

They could be funded-by new government bonds.

They could be funded by increasing the tax take on the extremely wealthy.

Elon Musk might have helped human consciousness to leave earth and enter space. However with his trillion he would, like others, need to have this consciousness prickled here on earth.

THE BEADY EYE SAYS HERE IS THE BEST WAY TO HANDLE A LONG REHABILITATION.

Tags

, , , , ,

( Seven minute read)

This is those of you that will have looked down and see a stump where your leg used to be.

There are no words to describe or comfort you, but here are some hard facts with first hand experience that might be helpful.

—————————-

The first thing to say is a long rehabilitation can feel incredibly overwhelming.

Losing your independence—even temporarily—and having to schedule your entire life around appointments, exercises, or strict routines can feel incredibly restricting and frustrating.

It is incredibly draining to manage pain in a space where there is no physical leg.

It is notoriously grueling affair. There’s really no way around the discomfort; you have to go right through it.

Physical rehab hurts.

Re-training muscles, breaking down scar tissue, or pushing joints past their current comfort zone requires a lot of grit. 

Before you can even consistently use a prosthetic, your residual limb (the stump) has to heal, shape, and mature.

Your body has changed, and it is completely natural to experience a profound sense of grief for your biological leg.

I am rehabilitating from the loss of my left leg above the knee.

Amputee rehab forces you to confront changes in your body image, self-esteem, and your perceived role in your life.

You’re aren’t “failing” rehab on the hard days; you are simply navigating one of the toughest transitions a human body and mind can go through.

There will be days where the psychological exhaustion far outweighs the physical fatigue.

You will have massive downers so if possible use every opportunity to take a break from what ever rehab centre you are in.

Time spent in the real world is not only health it is healing.

Here are most frustrating realities about rehabilitation:

You can work yourself to absolute exhaustion for weeks just to regain a fraction of a percentage of your old function or stability.

You don’t just get better every day.

You will have great days followed by sudden, demoralizing setbacks or long weeks where you hit a flat “plateau” and nothing seems to change.

Managing the psychological toll of taking two steps forward and one step back is often harder than the physical work itself.

So the gap between effort and visible reward is incredibly draining.

It is a massive disruption to your normal life, and it is completely normal to feel anxious, frustrated, or even a bit isolated at the start.

While the doctors and therapists are the experts on medicine, you are the expert on your body and mind.

The most important thing is to stay in charge of your recovery.

This is perhaps the most essential aspect of your recovery. Because without this conviction your recovery will drag on and on.

If a medication changes or a therapy exercise feels wrong, ask why.

Understanding the purpose behind a painful or tedious task makes it much easier to commit to.

 Speak up about pain and mental health:

Do not try to be a “hero” by hiding physical pain or feelings of depression. Both will actively stall your physical recovery if left unaddressed.

So within the first 48 hours, transform your living space to feel less like a hospital and more like a temporary home.

Bring a long phone charging cable (outlets are often far away), a white noise machine or earplugs for sleep, and a favorite scent (like a lavender lotion) to mask clinical smells.

Rehab facilities have strict schedules for therapy and meals, but there is often a lot of empty, boring “down-time” in between.

Fill those gaps with things you control.

Dedicate specific hours in the day to ring love ones for chat this gives your day ax structural anchors and keeps the days from blurring together.

Readings/ movies on your smartphone/ gaming on your smartphone or Chess.

Make a point to get dressed in regular clothes every morning instead of staying in a gown or pajamas.

Celebrate the micro-wins:

If you stood up for 10 seconds longer today than yesterday, or if you managed a difficult emotional trigger, that is a massive victory.

Recovery is never a straight line.

You will have plateau days or even minor regressions. Treat those days as a required rest stop, not a failure.

Don’t isolate yourself in your room during meals or free time. Talk to other residents.

Remember your time in rehab is a temporary season designed to give you your life back.

It is hard work, but it is an investment in your future. Nothing is forever. Nothing.

Set a target like a holiday.

THE BEADY EYE SAYS TECHNOLOGY WHETHER WE LIKE IT OR NOT IS HERE TO STAY BUT ON WHO TERMS.

The above statement couldn’t be more true, and needs to be critical analysis sooner than later.

This is extremely important as we are moving rapidly towards a world of AI surveillance.

Artificial Intelligence’s is if we don’t get a grip of now ( not in the future) it’s going to rule the world we live on.

Its unchecked development with the rise of hyper-realistic deepfakes, automated text generation, and voice cloning is already out of control.

AI makes it incredibly cheap and easy to manufacture fake realities at scale.

When anything can be perfectly faked, trust in media, democratic elections, and institutional authority collapses entirely.

If citizens can no longer agree on objective reality, cohesive society becomes impossible to maintain.

A rogue actor or terrorist group could use AI to design a highly lethal, vaccine-resistant pathogen that would have previously required a state-sponsored lab and a team of virologists to engineer.

It’s time our governments wake up to reality’s of AI.

Just look at what’s happening in the Russia/ Ukraine war.

A war of drones against an unwinding army that needs, fuel, food, water, ammunition etc.

The integration of AI into military hardware creates autonomous weapons systems (killer robots) that can select and engage targets without human intervention eliminating human hesitation or mercy from the battlefield.

Furthermore, algorithmic bugs or rapid-fire escalation between opposing military AIs could trigger accidental wars before human commanders even realize what is happening.

Are we all so stupid that we are unable to see that the future will be run by a select few, if we don’t take action to regulate AI now it will not be possible to close the gate later.

Resistance is not futile.

We need laws to force companies to pull back the curtain on “black box” algorithms.

This means maintaining clear data provenance (knowing exactly what data was used to train the AI) and allowing independent third parties to audit systems for hidden bias or security flaws before they go public.

Deciding who is legally responsible when AI causes harm.

If an autonomous system misdiagnoses a patient or crashes a vehicle, liability frameworks establish whether the fault lies with the software developer, the data provider, or the end-user.

Because AI code doesn’t stop at national borders, global bodies (like the UN, G7, or international treaty organizations) must establish baseline safety floors.

This prevents “regulatory arbitrage,” where tech companies simply move their operations to countries with lax safety laws.

The “Pacing Problem”:

This is the core structural hurdle of AI regulation.

Technology develops exponentially, while traditional legislative and democratic lawmaking processes move linearly and slowly.

By the time a comprehensive law is debated, drafted, and passed, the underlying technology has often entirely changed.

To solve this, many experts advocate for agile governance—using living regulatory sandboxes where tech companies can test new models under close government supervision, allowing regulators to learn and adapt rules in real-time.

Or they are required to lodge a copy of the software governing any technology with a government held computer in order to receive a license to operate the software.

This hits right at the core of the modern human condition.

We are drowning in information, while starving for wisdom.” — E.O. Wild

We live in an era of unprecedented mechanical and scientific clarity.

If you want to know how something happens, humanity has an answer, or is actively coding one:

Our modern world is obsessed with optimization. We ask “How do we make this faster, smoother, or more productive?” instead of “Is this worth doing?”

We confuse knowing about something with actually knowing it. 

We can read the 3-billion-letter code of human DNA and literally edit it with CRISPR.

When everything is reduced to a metric or a function, things stop being sacred or deeply felt; they just become tasks to manage.

Thanks to AI and instant connectivity, raw knowledge has become a commodity.

It is practically free, infinite, and accessible to anyone with a screen.

Knowledge used to be a rare, premium currency.

The premium currency now belongs to those who can answer whether we should do it, and what it means for us.

When anyone can look up a fact, generate a functional line of code, or draft a legal contract in three seconds, simply possessing information loses its premium value.

In a world drowning in data, deep fakes, and AI-generated noise, the ability to separate truth from hallucination and signal from static is incredibly valuable.

Because knowledge is everywhere, the ability to focus deeply on one thing without getting distracted is becoming a rare, elite skill.

THE BEADY EYE SAYS: BECAUSE THE FOUNDATION OF ALL ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IS OUR COLLECTIVE INTELLIGENCE IT SHOULD BE OWN BY ALL OF US.

The question is. Are we going to allow the world to be run by a few rich people or are we going to nationalise the largest Ai companies.

Here is what Gemmi thinks

“At the moment we are looking at a messy, high-stakes tug-of-war between Big Tech’s corporate consolidation and aggressive government intervention.”

“Training state-of-the-art foundation models requires billions of dollars, massive data centers, and specialized chips (like NVIDIA’s GPUs).”

“Only a handful of mega-corporations (think Microsoft/OpenAI, Google, Meta, Amazon, and Apple) have the capital to compete at the absolute frontier.”

“These companies already own the platforms where humanity generates its data, giving them a perpetual loop to train and refine their models.”

“ If left entirely unchecked, this leads to a “closed” ecosystem where a few billionaires hold the keys to the most powerful productivity tools in human history.”

“Governments may well recognise that AI is not just a commercial product—it is national infrastructure, a geopolitical weapon, and a societal shift.”

“ The European Union’s EU AI Act is a prime example of governments setting hard boundaries on risk, copyright, and privacy.”

“ The US and China have also implemented sweeping executive orders and regulations targeting safety and national security.”

But to date there is little legislation.

“Instead of “nationalizing” private companies (which is politically difficult in capitalist economies), many governments are building or funding their own Sovereign AI.”

“Countries like France, Japan, India, and the UAE are actively investing public funds into localized, state-backed models so they don’t have to rely entirely on US-based tech giants.”

“Rather than a total corporate take-over or a full government nationalization, we are likely heading toward a highly regulated oligopoly—similar to how we treat defense contractors, utilities, or mega-banks…”

“ A few massive tech companies will likely continue to build the heaviest, most expensive infrastructure, but they will operate under strict government surveillance, mandatory safety audits, and heavy antitrust scrutiny. “

“ At the same time, a thriving ecosystem of open-source models and state-funded AI will ensure that basic AI capabilities remain accessible to “all and sundry.”

All very well. But the truth is below.

THE BEADY EYE SAYS Political decision-makers and the business world bear immense responsibility for a climate disaster that is already expressing itself in the current heat waves.

( Four minute read)

As the Vert blog says and I quote

Those with the most malevolent intentions know they can count on our collective amnesia to continue accelerating down the highway to chaos.”

“ From one heatwave to the next, we forget what we endured a few months earlier .

This mechanism is vital, since it allows us to continue our lives (almost) normally. But it is also one of the reasons why so many of us continue to elect those who are leading us toward disaster.”

The Beady eye could not agree more, but what Vert had chosen to ignore is that climate change had been turned into a tradable product. Once this happened which has now been shown by gods knows Climate Summits it is virtual impossible to coordinate a unified approach.

So unfortunately we will continue with forest wild fires costing the tax payers billions, countries economy billions, not to mention the lost of lives and the billion of tonnes of extra carbon into the atmosphere.

This picture will remind the same until like most things in our world it is too late to do anything.

THE BEADY EYE ASKS. HAVE WE ALL GONE STONE CRAZY.

( Ten minute read)

I invited you to watch a small movie or documentary named CHASING TIME ( the link is below) and you will be left wondering just what it is that we cannot appreciate about how fast we are heading for a climate disaster.

There is no denying the evidence that this documentary presents, that the world’s ice is disappearing and sea level are rising.

The rate of melting is directly proportional to how quickly we are going to witness coastal erosion.

According to data from NASA and the Copernicus Climate Change Service, global sea levels are currently rising at an accelerated rate of roughly 3.6 to 3.8 mm per year.

Greenland is losing an average of roughly 242 billion tonnes (Gt) of ice per year.

If the entire Greenland ice sheet were to melt completely, it holds enough water to raise global sea levels by 7.4 meters (24 feet).

Antarctica is losing roughly 201 billion tonnes (Gt) of ice per year.

If it completely melted, global sea levels would spike by an catastrophic 58 meters (190 feet).

Sea level rise doesn’t happen uniformly.

So it stands to reason that some cities are facing a much faster threat than others.

Dhaka, Bangladesh & Kolkata, Mumbai, India:

Bangkok, Thailand.

Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Miami. New York, USA.

Shanghai & Guangzhou, China.

Rotterdam & Amsterdam, Netherlands.

Dublin. Ireland.

London. England.

If you’re a believer in what the vast majority of the world’s scientists say,the ocean is warming.

If you’re a believer of a small but loud minority made up of YouTubers and snake-oil salesmen then ocean warming is fake news.

The issuy, though, is that reality doesn’t care about how loudly, those YouTubers might scream the science is there and it’s proof enough.

The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, or AMOC, is huge and incredibly important to how the world’s climate — and in the shorter term, weather — behaves.

AMOC plays a key role in shaping Earth’s climate by moving heat, freshwater, and nutrients around the Atlantic Ocean,” explained the Gulf of Maine Research institute

“One of its most visible effects is on regional temperature: by transporting warm water northward, the AMOC helps keep parts of Europe and the North Atlantic milder than they would otherwise be.

Now, the science world has known for quite some time that the AMOC appeared to be slowing down, but they didn’t know exactly why. They thought, perhaps, that there was simply less warm water moving through the AMOC, which would’ve explained the cold blob.

They also thought that maybe that particular area was losing heat into the atmosphere, but they wanted to pin it down for certain.

Temperature records go as far back as 1870, with satellite records kicking in around 1993.

If the AMOC was holding steady, and the surface was the source of the heat loss, the data should show an uptick in heat flux to the atmosphere over time.”

When they pored over the immense amount of data, however, that’s not what they found.

When diving deeper, they found that in the last 50 years alone — especially from 1993 onward — the largest drop in heat was from the top 3,000-or-so feet of the North Atlantic Ocean, which (not coincidentally) is where the AMOC runs.

That means, at least to the researchers’ eyes, that “the AMOC ‘s heat supply to this region had been declining over the last few decades.

If the AMOC simply collapses, which isn’t entirely out of the realm of possibility, we could expect some seriously disastrous weather patterns.

“Such a collapse would be what scientists call a ‘climate tipping point’ —an event that would lead to sudden, wide-reaching impacts that are difficult if not impossible to reverse,” wrote the MIT climate Portal team.

“Changing currents would cause sea levels to rise swiftly in areas like the U.S. East Coast, storms would grow more severe, the rainy and dry seasons in the Amazon may flip, and the ice age pattern of a cooling north and warming south would play out once again.”

But belief and proof are two very different things.

AND THAT IS JUST CLIMATE CHANGES.

WHEN IT COMES ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE,

We have little concept of how it is already changing the world never mind the changes in our lifetimes, never mind in ten never mind in twenty years from now.

However like climate change we (that is our society) had better start preparing for massive changes otherwise there is going to be massive unrest and catastrophic consequences.

We are now living in a world that has more than bleak outlook, on several fronts.

Climate change – Current wars- Artificial Intelligence.

In not so distant future the above three will cause mass migration not extinction.

We have a popular asshole president of the U. S. A.

Supporting a country while stating its ambitions for a greater Israel, has just pulled of a genocide with two fingers in the air to the rest of world.

We have the prospective of millions loosing their jobs.

We have Ai threatening to displace millions of jobs.

Been replaced by coded machine. Without any income, it doesn’t take much of an imagination to know what happens next.

We have over a million and half people refugees in the ongoing war in the Sudian.

We have talking heads everywhere who don’t know what their heads are talking about.

We have al-Qaeda -.Hezbollah – Isil Da’esh, Along with probably 50- 60 other groups.

We have one individual worth 1.2,trillion dollars.,

To put that in perspective, his wealth is equivalent to roughly 3% of the entire United States Gross Domestic Product (GDP), 

We have billions being spent on useless weapons.

We have around 9 billion mobile phone in the world.

We have enough plastic to bury ( around 10 billion tonnes)

There are an estimated 170 trillion microplastic particles floating in the oceans alone, which have now been detected in everything from global drinking water to human lungs.

We have up to 150 to 200 species of plants, insects, birds, and mammals go extinct every single day. 

We have well over 4,000 distinct religions and faith groups active in the world today.

With 160 major lottery operators across roughly 90 countries. 

We have 1.8 billion vechiels in the world

We have AI already coping itself to advoid being replaced.

The big question is.

Do we have the geeks and brainiacs now are now us to get on top of AI before it gets a consciousness.

Answer complement of Gemmi

“ We don’t know for sure, but if it does happen, the legal and ethical framework of the world will have to change completely.

To understand how this might play out, it helps to break it down into two parts: the science of the “mind” and the reality of the law.

But consciousness requires a physical, biological body, emotions driven by hormones, and millions of years of evolutionary survival instincts.

Or does it.

We got to appreciate that AI is uncontrollable.

The soon we accept this the better.
