What was supposed to connect all of us is in fact doing the opposite.
Not only is it getting worse in every conceivable way, in recent times it’s is spreading false news, misinformation, housing extremism views, reinforcement of culture view, and worse of all enabling the birth of the influencer.
On top of all of this behind each platform there are profit seeking algorithms that are ramming down your throat mathematically what they have been paid to do.
This is on the good platform.
If you’re on Twitter or Facebook or Instagram you’re not only getting desensitised to world problems, but swamp by bad-faith politicians views.
Instagram I will remind you is primarily about social photo-sharing.
Its vision is to do away with the pesky human and have all of us following the AI -generated slop created by its AI generated profiles
Tic Toc: Sharing Videos
Snap Chat : Sharing videos that disappear
Meta : Selfishness.
Just how fake anything improves a platform is a question to be answered.
Hypocritical at least, these platforms are supposed to bring people together.
The answer is they don’t.
What we looking at are a collection of code, data and clever deception- fictional persona, created to manipulate emotional connection and trust which is going to result in your face being used to advertise something to you.
Ai described us as users.
So let’s start using it, not the other way around.
Ai is all ready using synthetic data to train itself.
All human comments appreciated. All like clicks and abuse chucked in the bin.
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.

The prosaic language of the benefits of Artificial Intelligence hides the facts that if we do not ensure our existence we will become products both in dead and alive.
What makes people stupid is their certainty that they have all the answers, and when they have power they are very dangerous.
AI at the moment can be seen as in an embryo state rather than a fully developed and integrated set of tools that will accompany us into the future.
If this future is to have any relevance it has to have an organic relationship with humanity. It must have a worldwide authority in the form of a human written constitution that can be amended by humans.
Why must this be done?
Not because Yuval Harari is warning us of the dangers of Artificial Intelligence.
Rather AI in its present form is shining a light on itself with its self learning not yet fully aware of its abilities to fuck up what’s left of our lives for the sake of short term profit or shots of pleasure and addictions.
What is this warning?
The way to live is to kill because you don’t have to worry about anyone who’s dead.
This is a human truth down the centuries.
Those in power must first show their power is not only there for others, but an instrument of service.
It’s not power that corrupts but fear.
Fear of loosing power corrupts those who wield it and fear of the scourge of power corrupts those who are subject to it … justice and compassion… are often the only bulwarks against ruthless.
Why?
Because ” Unlimited power is apt to corrupt the minds of those who possess it ”
It should be clear by now to all of us that prohibition of any country resort to war is a valid principle of international law.
Unfortunately international law is non enforceable due to the veto.
Let’s hope that the United Nations has the bottle to radically revise its constitution.
————
With social media the truth is becoming cheaper to find. Because the past is a messy and dangerous place the truth must be protected at all costs.
There is with artificial intelligence, climate change and the current wars, no room for false news.
And the truth is that all technology now and in the future will not replace the planet you live on.
However without control, algorithms will be running your life because they are not tools but agents.
Ask yourself what is their GOAL.
Answer. To make decisions.
Without Trust what is there?
This is if you lived fifth years ago the same world, except it is at a point that is going to change for ever.
We are approaching the beginning of the last years of human evolution as a biological creature.
Remember human beings are complex.
HAPPY CHRISTMAS.

≈ 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.
All human comments appreciated. All like clicks and abuse chucked in the bin.
It’s an intelligent totally different from human intelligence and as such should not be compared to evolutionarily human advancement.
An algorithmic bot is not a robot it’s a digital code of instructions to follow to achieve a specific target.
Ai is a net work of algorithms on a platform.
Quantum chips will take computing to the next level of artificial intelligence’s, with quantum information that only the computer will understand.
We all know that if our kids are constantly looking at computers I pads laptops and mobile devices we’re heading for a generation of fat kids with huge backsides.
Already we have over 208million Americans classified as obese.
Just imagine.
If it took millions of years for us to evolve but Robots without outside help will evolve at speeds not yet seen.
We are getting close to a world under constant surveillance thanks to the very thing I am using this very second – A Mobil phone.
It’s now impossible to live without constant contact with a computer, that is feeding of your personal and non personal data.
The ability of algorithms to analyse all this information is really beyond our comprehension.
The ability to make decisions must be within our capabilities, not with algorithms.
If we to have lives worth living, all technological advancement must be subjected to upholding human values.
This can only be achieved if we humans pass laws to regulate all social media platforms.
They all must be able to verify their content as genuine fact, not computer generated tripe.
Human if you have not noticed are inextricably connected to the earth not artificial intelligence.
It’s time to shift to a war time mindset when it comes to profit seeking algorithms and computers decide our lives.
Our smartphone accomplish the job 24/7
It’s simple unacceptable that they suck the life out of living for profit, while remaining un- transparent, un- unconscious, unethical, untrustworthy, untrainable.
The grow apathy about Ai, the state of the world drags on. It’s now or never or tomorrow will not arrive.
There is no deal to be had with Ai.
All human comments appreciated. All-like clicks and abuse chucked in the bin.
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.
The Beady eye recommends its reading by all.
