THE ELECTION OF DONALD TRUMP AS PRESIDENT OF THE USA WAS BOUGHT BY A FEW RICH PEOPLE.
It makes one wonder whether you should want something or someone else to determine your voting choice for you.
At the moment we have different voting systems all with a variety of different features.
But how proportional they are is hidden in corruption and money.
They are also difficult to understand depending where in the world they are taking place.
All have advantages and disadvantages.
However most can be manipulated by outside factors and forces and of course by money and bots.
Voting on minor issues is done usually by
General Consent – Visible
Voice Vote. Aya or no
Show of hands – Visible
———————
The question is whether seats in parliament reflect votes cast or just the party which has the most funds.
————
This post wishes to emphasise the importance of understanding different voting methods to make informed decisions as citizens.
————-
A ballot vote is used for elections.
To curb the political power of a dominating oligarchy we need to change to Direct democracies through an assembly of citizens, or by means of referendum and initiatives in which citizens vote on issues instead of for candidates or parties.
Why ?
Because AI will make voting an academic-Exercise.
Are you unsure about how to vote?
Simple: just ask an AI chatbot and within seconds you’ll have ready-made voting advice.
Easy? Yes. Desirable? Not really.
Choices such as who you marry, which job you choose and who you vote for are, in my opinion, a significant part of being human; they seem too important to me to outsource to technology.
Voting is now a collective illusion.
Take the Uk for example
ENGLAND has no written constitution.
The king might not have hard powers but he still has soft powers.
This must be removed by making Royalty solely a cultural historical institution.
It’s nive to think that the Royals have no influence over government.
They are asset rich, costing the tax payers million. On then other hand they generate millions as a tourism attraction, which would remain.
England with its mixed population needs a constitution.

≈ Comments Off on THE BEADY EYE OPEN LETTER TO WORLD LEADERS.BUILDING TRUST. JUST THINK WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF WE OFFERED RUSSIA FULL EUROPE MEMBERSHIP IN EXCHANGE FOR DISSOLVING NATO WHILE LEAVING IT WITH ITS DEFENCE NUCLEAR POWER ( WHICH LIKE THE USA NUCLEAR IS USELESS)
Such an offer would solve the war, boost world trade and overall global trust, on a massive scale to achieving a sustainable peaceful world.
In the world as we build a new world with technology there is no point to massive power.
Like every country Russia would keep its culture glory with in the Union, as would the Ukraine .
There are going to be hundred and hundreds of thousands new jobs, because we are going to have to transfer the history of us and the planet into the metaverse for future generations. This will have to done because of climate change extinctions and damage coming to the planet.
In this new world of technology sharing will be essential as there is only one earth we know
Why fuck it up?
There is nothing but good to be had by stopping all the unwanted pain of conflicts we are experiencing right now.
Removal of NATO could be verified by international independent observers both from Russia and the United Nations.
There would be no need to continue the war with the Ukraine as it would now like Russia secure its identity within the Eurozone. There would be no need for cow-tail trade deals with the USA.
How do we start this process?
During the next United Nations general Assembly we scrape the veto, and put in place a constitution for the Earth .
If we want a world worth living on we got to come together with understanding that we are all in the the same boat no matter who you might think you are life is the same for all.

≈ Comments Off on THE BEADY EYE SAYS. IN ORDER TO TURN THE WORLD AROUND FROM SELF DESTRUCTION WE MUST BUILD A WORLD ON TRUSTING EACH OTHER NOT ON POWER.
We can all see that we must change the direction we are presently persuading our lives before it’s too late. There is no point in living in a world looking over one’s shoulders afraid of being attacked just because we have not the ability to share our lives.
To achieve a peaceful world we must share its resources.
Build shared prosperity by extending the hand of friendship, building hospitals, health systems centres, retirement homes, rehabilitation facilities, schools, with grants free of charge or repayment.
We must make richer societies provide a bigger portion of its wealth to building trust between communities, cultures, countries, tying the world together, not pushing it apart for the sake of I am all right JACK.
The old proverb is true “ YOU CANNOT EAT MONEY “ but you can eat-away trust, which is exactly what Mr TRUMP & Mr PUTIN are doing for no reason other than self glorification.
WHO WANTS TO LIVE ON A WORLD RUN BY MACHINES FOR MACHINES.
NOT ME.
STOP THESE WARS AND START BUILDING TRUST. THEN AND ONLY THEN WILL WE LEAVE SOMETHING WORTH WHILE BEHIND.
THESE ARE THE WORDS OF FELLOW HUMAN, WHO IS RECOVERING FROM A TRIPLE BYPASS NOT A ARTIFICIAL GENERATED ASSHOLE ALGORITHMIC PLATFORM.
ALL HUMAN COMMENTS APPRECIATED. ALL LIKE CLICKS AND ABUSE CHUCKED INTO THE BIN.
≈ Comments Off on THE BEADY EYE SAYS: WE HUMANS HAVE TRIED MANY DIFFERENT WAYS TO LIVE TOGETHER /BUILD SOCIETIES WITHOUT SACRIFICING OUR INDIVIDUAL IDENTITIES.
With many names from the bottom of the globe to the top, it has cost billions of lives and trillions of dollars, with each and every advancement predicted to cause an apocalypse end to us all.
To days artificial advancements how ever are different from previous human interventions. All previous inventions required humans in the loop. Artificial intelligence will not.
Therefore the compatibility of democracy with technological advancement is paramount to our very survival, not to mention democracy itself.
This time we got to get it right as there will not be a next time.
However given our inability to recognise our errors ( if we are to be successful with AI ) we need to install self correcting mechanisms that can id and correct mistakes as Ai becomes part of being human.
This time we will need a written constitution to protect the values that are common to all organisms that are organic
That requires a fundamental change in our thinking, ambitions, and our awareness to what makes life possible and worth living.
It’s not living life through the lens of a smartphone.
Not living life through pretend reality with in the metaverse, pandering to wealthy elites, platforms.
It’s not living life through our photos stored in the cloud.
It’s not social media which is desensitising us to world problems.
If artificial intelligence micromanages everything I do and think that will give it totalitarianism control over society.
Is that what we want?
Technology is rarely deterministic. As a as a binary all are nothing choice.
Having access to our personal life comes with a fiduciary duty to act in our best interests. This an ancient principle must be incorporated by law into all algorithms and applied to all platforms .

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.

Ai is the first technology that is more efficient than all the collective instruments, institutions, corporations so far invented by humans.
However its main objectives is us.
While we reside in our twenty century caves call houses, apartments, algorithms exam our every day existence and addictions to our smartphones on behalf of their overlords.
Engagement is however not the model. As we will be less and less involved in making decisions.
With our caves converting more and more to automatic functions at speed to maximise profits.
In the mean time the planet is in a state of crisis not only to provide the necessary materials and energy to sustain itself never mind ourselves or AI which is slowly killing real activism, and replacing it with slacktivsm – with smartphones opting – out of actually committing time or money.
Where are we?
It is having a profound effect on all that surrounds us.
Social Media has already transformed the way we communicate, share information and consume media its self.
It’s all about attention seeking.
It had shifted the balance of power from the hands of the masses to the hands of the few.
On the threshold of a war,
Popular v. Democracy.
The future is not yet determined by Ai
We have to decide what we want before it’s too late.
Yuval Noah Harari book Nexus says that history is not deterministic and the future will be shaped by the choices we make in the coming years.
He says and I quote “ if we cannot change the future why waste time talking about it”
Unfortunately we respond to these dangers with the same brains as our Ancestors had some 60,000 to 80,000 years ago.
( He rightly pointed out who will we know that we are talking to a human. Place an x on a serious of photos not on your Nelly.
There will be no way to know. )
Unlike us with our I am all right Jack society they had a vested interest in each other. Peace without Victory.
Strong societies or weak
The fact that we have bot pits of rewards to engage the more extreme the more consuming the content becomes the bigger the rewards and that is what we are presently being fed by Algorithms.
What do we get in return for engagement?
Nothing.
Except democracy hacked for profit.
So here is my advice:
Really is you not some Algorithm that is trying to hack you.
Imagination is information that has be checked to become information.
So it follows that there is no such thing as information, there is only reality which is this very present moment in time, becoming fact when observed more than once by independent observation.
Life is a series of positions that fluctuate with time.
Most information including technology information has nothing to do with reality.
As we have found out in quantum mathematics is that it can be in two places at once depending on who or how it is observed.
We all have different perspective on the world. Here to day gone to morrow.
It is nothing but information.
As Yuval Noah Harari book Nexus states and I quote “ No account of reality is 100% accurate, but some accounts are nevertheless more truthful than others “
The question is will we adapt to Ai or will it be the other way around.
We need sleep it does not.
The world as you know it is over. It’s not about to happen it has already happened.
Remember that corporations in the USA already have legal rights.
One year remaining to ensure that our rights are respects as humans not as Ai pets.
We already have decisions being made by Ai that could replace the richest person with an Ai controlled company.

There was a day when the free world would react to a war stricken countries by sending Peacekeepers.
No longer!
The reasons for this are numerous.
Our inability to plan long term as a result of I am all right jack veto in the UN.
Our collective insanity not to value life beyond Social Media, Consumption Advertising, GDP, Lottery dopamine injection, Olympic medals, God bless me or Allah be praised.
Our collective inability not to see that technology has no boundaries. The unadulterated social media agendas, the fragility of algorithm capitalism driven markets.
Without our true participation in democracy, it will collapse.
The eroding religious mix in countries influencing the cultural direction of politics
—————
The need to re evaluate our lives.
Rather than live picture on a smartphone, of tragedies, genocides, climate disasters we need to take our fingers out of where the sun does not shine and change direction with unlimited funding.
Just look at the Paris Climate change commitments – 1.5 – it’s now looking like 3.5.
As you can see Climate has been turned into a product with the next conference in Baku Azerbaijan in November next., making it the 29th already begging for funds.
We have already used all the data that exists to try and create Generative Ai which by the way is going to need massive amounts of energy.
We are looking down the barrel of democracy being hi-jacket by systems controlled by non elected global corporations mining knowledge while we communicate with Mojos.
Personal I find our sorry state pathetic, considering we view our self as superior to the DoDo that went extinct or was killed to extinction by the perpetual Dodo us.
Yes no political system is safe or guaranteed but the only reason we now raise a finger to help or form an alliance is to avoid sanctions or tariffs.
All human comments appreciated. All like clicks and abuse chucked in the bin.
The truth is we have only after centuries of killing each other it’s not difficult to imagine the next step to how pathetic we will become.
YUVAL NOAH HARARI see the algorithm as “ arguably “ the single most important concept in our world.
His latest book Nexus describes some kind of automaton that especially through smartphones use we have succumbed to the cold inhumanity of compassionless algorithms.
Somewhat a remarkable claim, given such concepts as time, identity, information, morality, and so on.
Determinism is central to his world view.
Honestly every thing in the quantum world of entanglement and chaos points to non deterministic outcomes.
He argues that 20th century scientists found neither self nor free will.
We can at least assume they knew what both looked like before commencing their search.
He therefore stated that we’d never expect to hold a fully determined robot legally responsible for its actions, but we do hold fully determined human beings legally responsible for their actions.
The ethnical implications are glossed over, but a jurisdiction governed by this principle would have no selves to prosecute, casting doubt on the legitimacy of prisons and the legal system.

How did the planet earth get into such a dire state on terms of climate crisis and degraded environment?
Donald Trump has pushed us to the point that we can’t even agree on the weather.
What a stupid time to be alive.
Nothing would exist without temperature and the words adaptation and mitigation are ridiculously inadequate to describe what is coming.
Has anyone thought about unplugging American then plugging it back in again.
Hush, now before we look after the planet close to my heart are some home truths.
Democracy and the rule of law just aren’t doing the business. Why?
Because we all now connect with a computer in our pockets call a mobile phone. Also with social media we are all publishers.
This alone is an enormous destabilising factor that we have not figure out as yet.
So what will ?
Perhaps another pandemic, a nuclear explosion , an asteroid, a natural disaster, or Hubble discovery of another life form might do the trick.
It won’t be the second coming of any prophet, or AI, or American or Chinese domination.

AI IS FUNDAMENTALLY DIFFERENT FROM ALL PREVIOUS TECHNOLOGIES AS IT CAN CREATE ON ITS OWN FUNCTION/ FUTURE.
Artificial intelligence’s is creating its own language of Mima ( Mining information for management and acquisition) in order to inte-grate natural language, structuring knowledge over large systems, and using automated algorithms recognition techniques to gain our loyalty.
Once AI algorithms work out how to gain your loyalty there will be no need for you to search for what’s new.
The Advertisement Industry will therefore collapse, with social media platforms becoming the battleground for attention.
Algorithms are already well established in our society/lives and some are powerful in their practicality- Face recognition for example or predicting the stock markets.
They are interpreting how we think and communicate and will have big implications for us and what it means to be human.
As no one fully understands how Artificial Neural Network actually work, how they find connections & retrieve data, with an ability to generate written content in response to almost any command, cannot be fully explained.
How they are monitoring anything.
How they are adapting to their surroundings, if they are supposed to be mimicking the human brain [which is in itself still one of the greatest] whose functioning is still largely unknown.
Artificial Intelligence relies upon vast data sets to learn, this data is already contaminated and littered with every human biased thinkable.
Harmful gender stereotypes
Racial Biases
Elections
Currently our elected world leaders are being encouraged to spend 5% of GDP on defence with most political parties pledged to keep country safe at all costs.
In this age of proxy wars conducted with AI weapons, we are well on the road to getting further away from the objective of getting AI to explain how it arrives at decision and outcomes .
As a result there will be deep learning hidden layers to AI to make it untrustworthy and far from ethical in the Future.
Their reach already goes far beyond playing Chess or Go with their influence becoming thinner they’re going to have a profound impact in the future on all aspects of living a life.
How these Neutral networks will adapt to the world around them, which is too variable to do anything absolutely.
How the real world is understood and imagined will shape these systems.
It’s is well described by a Turkish proverb.
“ The forest was shrinking, but the trees kept voting for the Axe as the axe was clever and convinced the trees that because its handle was made of wood, it was one of them.”
All human comments appreciate. All like clicks and abuse chuck in the bin.
In a world where we are supposed to able to communicate, we are so saturated with information and bombarded with advertising we are no longer able to distinguish what is false and what is true.
Truth is usually the opposite to a false statement. Another words in accord with reality or facts.
We have a thing called Social Media which is destroying the very thing it claims to be – Social.
Far from bringing people together it’s is driving them apart with artificial predictive data gathering turning us into products.
Consider the risks.
While world leaders sit around a table passing worthless resolutions.
Exploding pagers /mobile phones with fake news becoming a major propaganda tool to launch cyber attacks.
To contaminate the air or water with drones.
It’s now or never we hold the owners of Algorithms to total transparency and legal responsibility.
It’s now or never we stop all wars and concentrate our collective actions to stop climate change.
It’s now or never we start to legislate for a transfer into living alongside non biological life forms.
It’s now or never that we learn that time it’s self is not just a forwarding of now but encompassed the past and the future all together in space time.
It’s now or never we ensure that all AI recognise our collective human values.
It’s now or never we put genuine value on all life.
It’s now or never Democracy cleanse its self up with long term solutions to world hunger/ poverty/ insecurity/ inequality/ racism/ living wage/ sustainable.
It’s now or never.
