THERE IS NO FUTURE UNLESS WE WAKE UP AND GET RID OF THE PRESENT WANKERS THAT THINK THEY ARE RUNNING OR RULING THE WORLD.
REPLACING THEM WITH LEADERS THAT HAVE VISION NOT GDP.
THERE IS NO FUTURE IF YOUNG PEOPLE CANNOT BUY A HOUSE, CANNOT EDUCATE THEIR CHILDREN FOR FREE, CANNOT EARN A LIVING, CANNOT ASPIRE TO UTTER THAN BEING DIGITAL CITIZEN FEED BY SOCIAL MEDIA.
THERE IS NO FUTURE DRIVEN BY CAPITALISM CONSUMPTION, CONSTANT WARS, OR WALL STREET PROFIT FOR PROFIT SAkE.
INFINITE GROWTH ON A FINITE PLANET IS NOT POSSIBLE.
THERE IS NO FUTURE IN 10% OWNING THE WEALTH OF THE WORLD.
THERE IS NO FUTURE IN IGNORING CLIMATE.
LIVE IN A NOW AND NOT YET LIFE.
THERE IS NO FUTURE IN ALLOWING UNFEELING GENERAL ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TO RULE THE WORLD.
THERE IS NO FUTURE IN TURNING A BLIND EYE TO GENOCIDES – RWANDA AND NOW PALESTINE.
THERE IS NO FUTURE IN AMERICA FIRST.
THERE IS NO FUTURE IN SEE EIGHT YEARS OLD PEOPLE BEING ARRESTED AND CLASSIFIED AS TERRORISTS BECAUSE THEY ATTENDED A MARCH SUPPORTING PALESTINE.
THERE IS NO FUTURE IN DEPORTING REFUGEES.
THERE IS NO FUTURE IN A WORLD WHERE RELIGIOUS BELIEFS AND IDOLS GOVERN SOCIETY.
THERE IS NO FUTURE UNLESS WE OVER COME THE HUMAN PREDICAMENT OF AGI VERSUS HUMANITY.
THERE IS NO FUTURE IN ADVERTISING THAT IS BECOMING PERSONALISED.
THERE IS NO FUTURE IN ALLOWING SMARTPHONE AND PLATFORMS CREATE AND SPREAD FALSE INFORMATION.
THERE IS NO FUTURE WITHOUT ALL THAT STILL LIVES ON THE PLANET.
THERE IS NO FUTURE WITHOUT CLEAN AIR, UNPOLLUTED FRESH WATER AND CLEAN ENERGY.
THE FUTURE IS IN OUR HANDS. GRAB IT WHILE YOU CAN.
ALL HUMAN COMMENTS APPRECIATED. ALL LIKE CLICKS AND ABUSE CHUCKED IN THE BIN.
Yes we have artificial Intelligence but we still don’t have the intelligence to eradicate poverty in the world.
It remains the foundations of a lot of the problems, because most of us have no understanding of what it means to be poor.
However the capitalist system fully understands the problem. Indeed it encourages its continuance with profit seeking algorithms, scratch cards and lottery tickets.
We talk about choosing.
However the great question to be asked here, is what choices are there, (if any) available to those living on 5$ a day.
The daily unifying ritual of all of us is eating, no matter how rich one becomes they are obligatory. A shit a day keeps the doctor away.
With climate change and AI categorisation bridging the gaps needs free speech because it is leads to justice but it’s not the golden point.
Surely the golden point has to be the equality of opportunity.
The slippery slope arguments of dripping down economics can no longer can be considered to hold water.
To be a nation one must ensure security of its citizens – protected- support- dignity and opportunities are no longer true.
Why?
Because we’re on the threshold of organic transfer to a new species that is going to live in a manufactured world, which will not be environmentally efficient, due to demand for energy, unless we harness infinite free energy.
By then poverty will have become lack of knowledge not opportunity.

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.

From a distance so many of our lives look the same. Survival, Procreation, Death.
But in our lives everything depends on others and there is no life without feeling part of something bigger than oneself.
Life demands an horizon bigger than the four walls of your living space.
The narrow ruts of immediacy is not life.
The din of humanity has to be shaken off to experience life.
A super market, a shopping centre, a consumer market mall, what ever you want to a call it is not life
Is your life to focus on convenience and consumption?
Are you walking around in fear of loosing your phone, having never read a book or visited an art gallery or museum or being to a play or concert. Climb a mountain, gone scuba diving, sniff a flower, cooked a meal, crack a joke, live in nature.
Life is not a football team, a culture, a race, a language, a country, or the cadaverous light of the computer, the laptop, the iPhone, the iPad, the smart TV.
Or is it rituals we continually reenact that-have long ago emptied of their meaning and do nothing to regather the sense of self.
——————-
Modern day life is turning into a multifaceted compendium of evolving technology and social media affecting our physical and mental health.
It’s is not a life.
Unplug your phone and take notice of your surroundings.
Standing in front of a panoramic vista, or horizon less night sky, is a bit like waving ammonia underneath one’s nose. It reminds you that you are part of a bigger scheme of things than just life.
Change is inevitable.
There are it seems no rules to modern day life, other than overindulgence and living beyond one’s means.
There are nearly 8 billion of us destroying what’s left of our planet’s beauty.
Life on a credit card and the never never of a pay check, bragging on social media is not living, its existence at the pleasure of others.
With the interdependence on each other to reverse climate change becoming more and more urgent, before living becomes not worth while, other than it being harvested by an algorithm. It’s time we understand what an algorithm is.
A set of commands that must be followed for a computer to perform calculations or other problem solving operations actions.
Life is an algorithmic process that does not function as a set of commands that cannot be self imposed or enforced or implemented or taught.
It (like an algorithm) never sleeps but we as organic entities must take a rest or die.
Despite many advances the world is still facing many challenges that have plagued life since it began- poverty- wars- hunger etc.
It’s a no brainier that with all of our achievements we have been unable to achieve equality.
Society is no longer a few people you know.
Non organic technology life is out pacing out ability to live a life and given the pace of change it is essential that we stand up for our rights and avoid assumptions that AI is going to benefit one and all.
The question is who is going to adapt to whom?
Us, to the AI bureaucrats or them to us?
The answer is obvious to life, but not to us as we are loosing the ability to think, talk, or tell each other what is at stake.
You are not a person on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or the internet you’re a product to be bought, exploited for profit by self learning algorithms.
This is why all education should be freed, why all health care must free, why a basic living income is essential.
So we all can become spellbound, transfixed, entrenched, arrested, riveted, mesmerised call it what ever, by the beauty of life that set our selves free to come somewhere near living a full life.

As an independent institution the life mission of a parliamentarian within in government is to stay relevant within a parliament.
This is not the problem it is the first issue to solving the problems with democracy.
If we don’t wake up to what is happening with elections we will get nothing from democratic elected government.
It is time we all stand up together for equality, accountability, and transparency not wealth, and definitely not Democracy by self learning self correcting algorithms that have and are penetrated all of democracies institutions.
If we don’t take actions now it’s going to be a nightmare with parasitic profits seeking algorithms feeding on the bodies of our nations.
For an Algorithm to operate efficiently it must update its data /input constantly and have everything specify for its object.
If not it will make out of date decisions. Even if it is self learning or uses reinforcing learning, it will end up as a narrow Algorithm if it doesn’t have up to date data.
This is why it won’t be long before algorithms will be writing their own syntactic data and code, creating other algorithms, with tailored recommendations and content curation.
This is perhaps the main difference between democratic authoritarianism algorithms and self correcting elections.
( Both are run by wealth, rather than any real choice that is free of contamination by either data or money)
This is why governments are incapable of achieve anything the electorate wants – ie reducing inequalities -climate change- wars – cheap housing etc,
Why?
Because only 2% of the population is represented in elections, which are decided and rigged by wealth, not wisdom, selecting the candidates for elections in the first place in safe seats constitutional voting.
Our problem in solving problems is that our only guidance is the past.
——————
The past shows that with each and every invention of technology inequality increases.
Except perhaps the smartphone which changed a great deal of what was wrong within the free marketplace- ie curbing corruption.
Unfortunately all of these profits seeking algorithms are and will continue to widen the inequality gaps.
In fact inequality is at its greatest since World War Two because the free market is no longer free but governable by algorithms trading.
Everything you see and do on the Web is a product of Algorithms exploiting data that we feed them for free.
Perpetuating social bias, optimising everything, putting control into the hands of a few, to predict market movements, portfolios performance, credit risk etc.
AI is naught but algorithms but as to how or whom should own/ control these algorithms is very much a pending question.
If that data is slightly changed the results could be small or catastrophic.
Luckily to days AI ( even with all the hype surrounded its future ) can’t actually think for itself.
We don’t have and are very unlikely to have in the short term to have anything like that.
However as with most things that threaten us we are in a caught up situation.
It is too late to close the gate on AI as the world would not be able to function. This of course is an absolute lie.
We must preserve our innate cognitive abilities by critically assess the role of technology in our lives.
What would happen if the technology world collapsed?
Would we be back to square one?
Yes.
Our vote had no relationship with the candidates standing for election they are selected by money donors.
Yes– the roads would turn into chaotic parking lots .
Yes – our hospital without AI powered tools, would collapse.
Yes – the economy would tank.
Yes – If it existed there would be long queues at the gates of heaven.
Yes – there would be a world war.
Yes – no one would remember the internet.
Yes – religiousindoctrination would increase.
Yes – we would release that we were too reliant on outsourcing our brains to machines.
Yes- Not even would AI be relevant.

The lack of understanding of the issues affecting life is visible in most political parties aspersions, not to mention profits seeking algorithms.
Unfortunately, this is not the world in which we live. Power stems only partially from knowing the truth.
Our world not matter how one looks at it, is getting into a worse and worse state on almost every level and front.
AI – Climate – Wars – pollution- greed – inequalities- racism- religious intolerance- exploitation- social media- education- profiteering- pandemics- gender ideology- dehumanising refugees- metaverse- cost of living- you name it and its getting worse not better by the day
Why you might ask?
Because.
We are walking around with our very own colosseum areas in our hands, portraying a world full of succulent burgers with violence on tap.
Because.
Social media deriving pleasure from other people suffering is promoting false news, with false like clicks, false on line friends, false values.
Treating wars and natural disasters as entertainment, promoting growth and unsustainable consumption above any worthy while common values. Becoming morally hypocritical with AI knowledge.
Because.
Rationality is going out the window for the sake of shot term pleasure’s detaching us from reality.
Any one can become an Internet troll.
Because.
If we are unwilling to invest in a future, it is no wonder our world is in such a mess.
Because.
Psychopathic traits make for Popular leaders with bloated and boundless egos.
Because
We fail to understand the basic laws of nature resulting in an endemic of bad effects.
Because.
Climate change has the potential to cause deviations and millions of deaths but we remain unable to act together even though we are facing such a stark prospect.
Because.
To find a way to make millions of us to cooperate is a science still in the making.
To inspire people to make a common sacrifices for a common cause requires fictional stories rather than the truth,.
If we want to battle climate change it has to take precedence in all activities and this can only be achieved by bribing the great unwashed into changing how it conducts itself.
Rewards / tax breaks.

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.

Since time immemorial we have had poverty, inequality.
Even with all the technology advances, political initiatives, international aid, etc we humans are unable to set values because capitalism has turned everything facet of life into a product.
Being born to being departed along with everything in between is an opportunity to make money now or in the future.
However we’re now at a crossroads.
Algorithms are mining our desires, sending personalised ads to stimulate unsustainable growth.
It’s no surprising that we have ended up in this situation.
We can say whatever, the international rules based of trade no longer applies. It and its organisations have been blown up by Donald Trump.
I am all right jack is back with the inequality gap getting wider by the minute.
The only rules that now matter are the rules of finance. All of the rest don’t apply.
If we don’t step back from the brink of climate catastrophe, due to growth at all costs, there will be little point for our continued growth/ existence, other than to become slaves to AI.
