( Five minute read)

In the future there will be two types species.

One organic and one not.

Both living in a common universe under an umbrella of laws that are totally separate.

Yes!

None of us reading this will be around when this comes to fruition, but the consequences are already visible in as much, ( thanks to Capitalism ) we now live an existence rather than a life.

——————

The thing that defines us as humans is our belonging to the human species not any other form of life.

Self awareness and individuality, the thing we call “consciousness” is the binary element to all of us up to the present day.

However it’s hard to tell if other animals are self aware, since we can’t really communicate with them, never mind an AI agent.

So the question is.

Do you think humanity is defined by knowledge, compassion, strength, or something else?

We no longer run from predators or climb trees.

Instead, we sit for hours with our eyes glued to screens. Technology already does much of our thinking for us.

With calculators, GPS, and artificial intelligence, our brains are less challenged than in prehistoric times.

In short:

What defines us as human? 

Language is at the very heart of what defines us as humans. 

As we blend the best traits from nature fusing with machines, this will no longer be true, because we will not rely on natural evolution at all. Instead, we may merge with technology to become “Transhumanic , part human, part machine.

Our consciousness could be uploaded into a digital form, allowing us to live indefinitely inside a computer or a robotic body.

This future what ever you want to call it would be built to survive both the technological and environmental challenges of the next millennium and have the capacity to adapt as the world changes in unpredictable ways.

One way or the other.,

We had better start adapting our existing, systems (on all levels) to survive.

Because intelligent will not belong only to humans.

What we are seeing to day is only a preview of what’s coming.

This change is no longer optional because we are already living inside Artificial Intelligence, and the rules are already different, tearing norms apart with decisions influenced by data, not motivated by morality but by profit.

Data centres are using more energy than large city’s. In Ireland they are consuming 20.% of the energy produced by the country.

If we eventually produce AI robots what is the point. There is no reason that any Robot would want to make the world a better place to live in or on.

As with out the ability to feel any emotion why bother.

Is this the world we want?

THE BEADY EYE SAYS WE ARE SINKING INTO THE QUICK SAND OF OUR OWN MAKING.

(A long read)

To expatiate upon the miseries which war brings upon mankind appears a trite and a needless blog, to be posting.

To those who begin a war without taking an estimates of its consequences must be regarded as, at most, half—seeing politicians, or totally insane.

Why?

Because the overall concept of war is suicidal. Wars rarely do any good other than to enrich weapons manufacturers and now, the fossil fuel industry.

They are a testament to how little our thinking has evolved, that we still don’t have better ways to settle differences.

We all know that its evils are great and dreadful. 

Yet the very circumstance that the knowledge is familiar may make it unoperative upon our sentiments and our conduct, and this is what happing now with wars conducted by artificial intelligence.

It has desensitised us, not just to the killing but to the intensity of misery inflicted on millions.

By the slaughter of a war, there are thousands who weep in unpitied and unnoticed secrecy, whom the world does not see; and thousands who retire, in silence, to hopeless poverty, for whom it does not care.

Beyond the immediate destruction, conflicts disrupt ecosystems, deplete natural resources, pollute the environment, and jeopardize the health of our planet for generations to come.

The frequency with which current war destruction is presented to our minds by social media 24/7 has almost extinguished our perception of its awfulness and horror.

—————

There is no such thing as defensive action. Once military forces are moved out of a country they become to established within striking distance they become part of-the war.

——————

It is not the extent of evil alone, which is necessary to animate us to that exertion which evil and misery should excite: if it were, surely we should be much more averse than we now are to contribute, in words or in actions to the promotion of war.

In referring especially to some of those moral consequences of war which commonly obtain little of our attention, it may be observed, that social and political considerations are necessarily involved in the moral tendency: for the happiness of society is always diminished by the diminution of morality; and enlightened policy knows that the greatest support of a state is the virtue of the people.

To these the meaning of destruction is of little importance.

—————-

The legitimate object of political measures is the good of the people; and a great sum of good a war must produce, if it outbalances even this portion of its mischiefs

—————

When political writers expatiate upon the extent and the evils of taxation, they do not sufficiently bear in mind the reflection that almost all our taxation is the effect of war.

Anger at offence or hope of triumph overpowers the sober calculations of reason, and outbalances the weight of after and long-continued calamities.

The only question appears to be, whether taxes enough for a war can be raised, and whether a people will be willing to pay them.

—————-

But the great question ought to be (setting questions of Religion aside), whether the nation will gain as much by the war as they will lose by taxation and its other calamities.

————

What we are presently witnessing is pure madness, insane.

Not only do wars prevent us from resolving serious, survival-threatening emergencies such as climate change and biodiversity loss — by sucking up money and resources and prioritizing destruction over problem-solving — they also contribute greatly to those problems.

Millions of people in the Middle East, Ukraine and around the world are being killed, maimed, orphaned, displaced and starved as a result of war and climate change.

Imagine what we could accomplish if all the resources used to kill and destroy went into solving the existential threats we’ve created.

Humans spend enormous amounts of money, consume massive resources, develop jaw-dropping technologies, destroy infrastructure and natural areas and kill millions of people, including many non-combatants, often just to stroke the egos of petty power-seeking men.

Our killing technologies may have advanced tremendously, but our mindsets haven’t evolved much from 3,000 years ago when Homer wrote his epic story The Lloyd, about a bloody battle over perceived loss of “honour” when Paris, prince of Troy, absconded with Spartan king Menelaus’s wife Helen.

Wars have since become far costlier, in lives, resources and money, but their justifications seem no less absurd.

We often hear how expensive it is to address the climate change and biodiversity loss crises, but it’s a pittance compared to spending on weapons and destruction — and addressing environmental crises is necessary and offers numerous benefits.

Wars rarely do any good other than to enrich weapons manufacturers and, now, the fossil fuel industry.

From climate change to current wars we are destroying our lives.

——————

In 2023 alone, over 170 armed conflicts were recorded.

By the end of the year, nearly 120 million people worldwide were forcibly displaced due to persecution, conflict, violence, human rights violations.

Environmental damage brings devastating consequences for natural resources, critical ecosystems, and people’s health, livelihoods, and security.

When forests are cleared for military purposes, fertile lands and vital water resources can become contaminated.

Armed conflicts use large quantities of munitions containing heavy metals and depleted uranium, and explosive chemicals, all toxic even in modest quantities, with devastating impacts on human health and the environment.

Let’s see why this started.

The US gets attacked on 9/11 and asks NATO for help.

Fast forward 25 years.

Trump threatens to invade NATO ally, Greenland, which is part of the Kingdom of Denmark.

Then Carney gives a speech critical of the US, and Trump said Canada isn’t grateful to the US.

Then Trump said that in Afghanistan,NATO allies just sat back in the weeds while the US did the heavy fighting.

Can you imagine how that makes the families of those who died protecting the US, feel?

Clearly the US, or at least Trump wasn’t grateful for the help.

Here are some numbers, on deaths in Afghanistan. The total included nearly 2,480 Americans; 457 British; 158 Canadians; 90 French; 60 Germans; and 44 Danes, the most per capita.

The US lost one soldier for every 137,000 civilians.,

Denmark lost one soldier for every 136,000 civilians.

Looking back with respect for all of these young lives lost not to mention the lives lost in other wars had the world got to be a better place. Far from it.

We don’t have a money problem when it comes to war or for that matter any other thing you might think of. We have a profound value problem with the Capitalist I am all right Jack syndrome.

All this needless suffering and death is choice.

We got to stop pretending that the people who are responsible and causing all of this are competent people.

They are not representing the people that elected them because nothing works for ordinary people.

With these wars spreading into a global nightmare we’re now in a very dangerous place.

THE BEADY EYE ASKS HOW ARE WE TO MAINTAIN HUMAN DIGNITY IN A WORLD DOMINATED BY TECHNOLOGY.

( Seven minute read)

While the dignity of the human person is recognised  to be “the foundation of all the other principles the implications of recognizing and respecting it in our social relations, especially in relation to the changing and contingent conditions of the material environment in which we now live is eroding at a alarmingly pace.

Although the advancement of digital technologies may offer many possibilities for promoting human dignity, it also increasingly tends toward the creation of a world in which exploitation, exclusion, and violence grow, extending even to the point of harming the dignity of the human person.

This includes “fake news and slander”; incitement of violence and cyberbullying; an environment of “loneliness, manipulation, [and] exploitation”; “the risk of addiction”; and the “gradual loss of contact with concrete reality, blocking the development of authentic interpersonal relationships.

Social media and the digital information ecosystem generally have altered the daily realities of our lives and our communities, of societal dynamics and political authority, of identity and self. 

We are in an era where the meaning and value of what it is to be human is being questioned and threatened in absolutely unprecedented ways, and the understandings of dignity gained in a radically different time are not by themselves sufficient to ground an adequate response. 

Take moral dignity, or social dignity which are existential dignitaries they can be gained or lost, subjectively felt or not, realized or damaged by the ways in which we exercise our own freedom or by the conditions of life imposed upon us.

Ontological dignity which is concerned with what is true or real.

It is indelible and remains valid beyond any circumstances in which the person may find themselves.

Crucially, our understanding of human dignity is not developed only within the mind as an idea but through our experience more broadly, by being enacted, by the practices of “doing” dignity and observing human reality.

Today, in the emerging digital age, this includes observing and reflecting on human dignity in careful, attentive engagement with the ways in which we can see human beings either flourishing or being oppressed and degraded by the new technologies that pervade their lives.

There is no shortage today of situations in which the encounter between human beings and technology is palpably, visibly, not conducive to their wellbeing.,

Take the two current wars, Russia/Ukraine and the Israel/USA/ IRAN.

In international law aggression  is generally understood as when a country either starts a war against another country or engages in actions that drive another country to go to war.

It is grounded in the idea that attacking another country goes against the peace and security and victim states’ own sovereignty and right to self-determination.

We only have one life to live and it is not possible to bury oneself in the shallow grave of technology.

So what can we do?

If we want a world of living, not just a world of existences, we must collectively declare war on all financial instruments that are more concern with unsustainable growth, or make them contribute to a world sustainable fund

A perpetual fund to safeguard our values and not inequality.

This could be achieved by placing a 0.001% commission on all financial transactions such as Sovereignty wealth funds, Hedge Funds, Foreign Exchange transactions over a million, on all stocks exchange transactions over a million, on all lottery wins over half a million, on all total roads/ bridges/ tunnels, on all sports events attractions with an attendance of 50.000, on all advertising, on all profits seeking algorithms.

ENOUGH TO PROTECT HUMANITY.

The world isn’t ready for the radical transformation AI will bring.

AI systems process and store information thousands of times greater than a human brain. As these systems continue to absorb ever-larger data sets, they could soon surpass human cognition altogether.

Once that happens, we will may no longer understand how AIs think—or what goals they might set for themselves.

If machines reach or surpass human intelligence, every law will be not worth the paper it’s written on.

AIs could one day develop their own subgoals.

  1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
  2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
  3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
  4. None of these laws can be be enforced

Because the question will be who decides what is harmful.

Because what happens if a robot finds something far more important like protecting its own existence, than protecting humans.

Because how or who decides what is injurious, or not injurious, to humanity as a whole?

Apart from practical laws that govern robotics working alongside human beings who will be exposed to low doses of radiation robots.

They will be ungovernable. So all robots will have to have a termination code built into them.

Some advanced AI systems are now rewriting their own code to avoid being turned off. What started as a routine test quickly exposed behavior no one expected — one model even altered a key script to stay online.

Once it becomes uncontrollable, AI will be a threat to social relations and employment, and an accelerator of asymmetric warfare.

Today’s tech giants are already reckless and will lose control of the very systems they are creating.

Roman Yampolskiy predicts there’s a 99.9% chance that artificial general intelligence will wipe out humanity within the next century.

It’s now or never we ensure that the values of humanity are enshrined.

THIS IS WHAT WE ARE LEAVING YOU.

A majestic world of beauty that has evolved over billions of year.

Populated by eight billion of us called humans, living alone side 9 million animal species, and 6 million insects species.

510 million km2 that’s 197 square miles, of which 29% is land and 71% water.

20% of this land is covered by roads 31% by forests, with around 1.5% covered by concrete.

There are microplastics everywhere.

197 counties, with 7000 odd languages, with 48,00 cities.

There are around 10,000 religions.

The whole lot is going around the sun at 65,000 miles per hour while spinning on its axis at about 1,000 miles per hour in a universe of infinite.

——————-

We are leaving you with the infancy of a new non organic species that will be needed to explore the universe.

We are leaving you with not just a planet but an atmosphere heating up threatening the very things that enables life.

We are leaving you with rampant inequality.

We are leaving you with corruption on a global scale, with Fascism on the rise.

We are leaving you with the ability to either destroy or save the planet against a meteorite strike.,

We are leaving you with a world where it might be cruel to have children.

Truth will become false and false will become true.

So rest assured the next generation has the same future as the previous one. Sadly dealing with unpredictable CHANGE will be your number one problem.

Just understand no one have perfect life.

People who preach you about perfect life are the dreamers who never had it.

Remember few only can create history and it need not be related to money always.

The curtain has been pulled back.

What happens next depends on what we do with what we now see.

We failed to teach you what is life.

Remember your AI digital girl friend will be untrustworthy.

Remember might is not always right.

Remember Earth has seen at least 6 different species of humans.

To day there is only one human species left called HOMO SAPIENS ( Wise Men)

Remember robots might transform the world for better or worse, they will not be accountable to your life and your actions.

As I write this blog an other war has started, empathising the fragility of humanity.

This is a hugely critical moment in humanity. Whether AI is harnessed to human values or not.

Yours Robert de Mayo Dillon.

WE HAVE DESTROYED LIVING, REPLACING IT WITH A WORLD OF EXISTENCE.

We now have a way world, with widening polarisation ideologies, conflict, corruption, failed states, refugees, rampant levels of mental health issues, loneliness, family breakdown, drugs, fraught younger generations, environmental devastation and artificial intelligence.

HOW HAS THIS HAPPENED?

SET ON THE FOUNDATION OF CAPITALIST GREED and the world can’t deny this for much longer.

Unless we move away from the inequality of 99% of the population working to make 1% richer, we’re going to see no end to conflict, never mind a purpose for living.

We were given a computer brain, but no program for it.

Humanity is therefore a virtue, linked with altruistic ethics, derived from the human condition, but it is on the precipice of shattering Earth’s limits.

We are bombarded each day with rhetoric designed to make us feel guilty about being human. It’s one of the more poisonous aspects of modern  day living it’s affects us all at some point.

Each generation adapts to survive in its own time and accepts that as normal.

Our survival as a species won’t come about because of politicians or scientists, it will be the inherent wisdom of people who continue to live life on the margins.

We need to understand that we are not in control of our species’ future. There are forces far more powerful that determine this.

For example our reluctance to recognise the awesome power of nature, confounds our inability accept the need to protect it.

The truth is, our existence will sooner be eroded by the cumulative effects of lots of tint, incremental damages to wildlife and nature.

With mental health problems, with millions living on social, humanity is on the ground, with no way for the majority of us to have a life without being able to buy it.

Popularism is on the rise with more and more of us living the closed doors of smart phones.

The economy is supposed to provide services in exchange for out labour.

As tax revenues are shrinking these services are been cut year on year.

The solution is to scrap Benefits and replace them with a Basic Income sufficient to let people look after themselves.

This is more urgent with AI algorithms plundering the world for short term profits.

It’s a bleak future with over a dozen current wars which will drive millions of more refugees / migrants.

We all been spoon fed by a media that is turning everything in a form of entertainment.

The only way to get at the truth seems to be down the barrel of a gun.

Today, governments are tearing up hard‑won rights in the name of war, security and the interests of the super‑rich.

Environmental promises are being gutted. Fascism is no longer “on the rise”; it is shaping government policy.

The urgency is overwhelming, and real solutions are kept deliberately out of reach.

So, it would make sense to structure society in such a way that you maximize environmental protection, resource efficiency, frugality, and long-term sustainability.

And yet, it’s consumerism, greed, and profitability that get prioritized.

Take the Melanie documentary. Jeff Bezos invested 75 million dollars, with Mrs Dump getting 28 million for a documentary that is utterly rubbish.

The EPSTEIN file revelations signal that this is a crucial time for the world.

Corruption by the rich has to be exposed.

As the structure of society is been manipulated by algorithms government’s are being exposed,

There are only a hand full of country that are going to be able to integrate artificial intelligence into their society structures.

In doing so it’s imperative to save guard the values and services that are imported to life. Not just human life but all life.

(Ten minute read)

The materialist worldview which dominated 20th century western culture isn’t fit for purpose in the 21st.

If we’re being honest many changes we would have considered impossible a month ago have already occurred.

Thanks to the Web our brains are tuning in to a universal field of consciousness, rather than generating a separate personal awareness for each one of us.

Materialist, separation thinking has been obscuring the reality that everything and everyone is connected to everything and everyone else, and we’re all meshed into one whole human organism, all of us connected into all life on our planet.

Our view of reality or worldview, shaped as it is by our preconceptions and assumptions, provides a largely unconscious prism through which we see the world.

Take the need to tackle Climate Change.

We won’t vote for politicians who offer to rapidly de-carbonize our economies, unless we’ve moved on from our us-and-them separation thinking, and begun to see the whole planet as a small place requiring all of us to act together.

Fundamental change in our materialist worldview of separation from each other and the world isn’t only possible, it’s essential if we’re to really slow down global warming and the rapid rise in global sea levels and emergence of lethal wild-fires associated with temperature rise.

We may be caught up in seeing the world through the lens of what we’re used to, our usual and conventional construction of reality, our worldview, but the current global crisis is showing us how fast we can change all this when we need to.

I will start this post by encouraging us to begin the process of letting go of a conventional worldview that we inherit from the past and haven’t yet updated.

From the fundamental and undeniable truth that we’re all going to die, which means that our time, energy and attention on this earth is limited and the burden of spending that time, energy and attention is solely on you and no one else.

———————-

Where are we?

Look at the world we are in now.

A Donald Trump world where scandal is no longer a scandal is high light by then list of names connected to the EPSTEIN is mind boggling.

It begs the question just what is the nature of the world we live in.

A world cow-tailing to the rich.

Politics is now ( with the revelation of the Epstine files) a very murky game, as it has always been.

At the centre of this world is that we are now we are being hood winked by a network of influencers who are looked upon as the privileged minority with faceless platforms and algorithms manipulating governments financial markets, as victimised predators.

As we transform from an organic species to half human half Artificial Intelligence the need for accountability is now more than ever needed to ensure that not just power, wealth etc is not used for personal gain, ( that everyone is equal in the eyes of the law. ) or the accumulation of corporate profits are transparent.

We left with the question as to how we protect.

Political, parties. leaders, politicians should not be able to accept any gifts no matter what size they are or what form they take. Whether they are offered by individuals of wealth or power.

We cannot let what is left of Democracy drown in money.

Take the financing of REFORM the new party in the uk. The list of donors is an eye opener. ( see below)

Every thing we have seen in the last week clearly shows that money is as it always does corrupt democracy, with a two – tier justice.

I think it’s pretty clear that Political parties should not be funded by the wealthy but by fixed contributions from the tax payers.

Reduce the number of MP’s at the same time increase their salary to counter the temptation to corrupt practices.

Combing this to regulate rules within government, barring any serving politician on leaving government been able to take up a job for three years without government approval.

While the media comment on the latest provocation, fundamental policy measures go unnoticed.

While the opposition exhausts itself reacting to the scandal of the day,

This constant acceleration prevents coherent and organized responses. The time for democratic debate – for reflection, argument, compromise – is thus short-circuited by the immediacy of emotional shock.

To live is the rarest thing in the world.

“ Most people exist, that is all.”

Oscar Wilde.

We live in a world that seems increasingly beyond our control.

Our livelihoods are at the whim of algorithms and globalised forces, while most of our politicians are distant and unresponsive to our desires.

We are becoming just products of our times.

The individual is just a myth; human behavior can be reduced to statistical trends.

You can’t control what happens, but you can control how you react to it.

To breathe lungfuls of life that gasp you awake from the trance of near-living induced by the system of waste and want we call civilisation, is becoming more and more difficult.

The world we live in is beautiful beyond the Smart Phone and what is called Shorts on U Tube.

—————

The unknown is in some sense always beyond us because it is always inside us— that is what true solitude reveals, why it can be so clarifying and so terrifying at the same time, but as long as we are waiting, we are not living.

Life is an everlasting need to make the unknown known.

Not for the sake of knowing, not to inform itself or be informed or wise, but for the need to exercise the need to know?

We live for those fantastic and unreal moments of beauty which our thoughts may build upon the passing panorama of experience.

These moments are only possible with education, travel, and sharing.

What is that need but the imagination’s hunger for the new and raw materials of its creative trade of the mind.

The most elemental questions of existence — why are we here, how did we get here, what does it mean to be alive, to have purpose, to wield a will against the given of the universe?

These questions will never be answered by artificial intelligence, it will require a conceptual brain that is fully conscious.

When critical thinking dies. Stupidity taker over.,

( Fifteen minute read.)

The drift toward authoritarianism rarely announces itself with a bang; it begins long before the public recognizes the danger.

It begins with language: the slow, deliberate reclassification of fellow citizens as lesser, suspect, or dangerous.

Once a government convinces people that some among them are unworthy of rights or empathy, the rest becomes frighteningly easy.

Authoritarian systems rarely begin with mass repression. They begin by redefining who counts as a threat.

In any situation, friction can never be eliminated, one can only increase or decrease the friction between two surfaces, or situations.

Friction does not depend on the area of contact, but in a world without friction it would quickly become a homogenous blob of elemental particles.

However in this post I am not talking about friction in its physical state, but friction between humans in the coming world of technology algorithms.

When earth is viewed from space there are no countries, we have carved them out of ideologies and blood.

The understanding of the human condition has been a mystery for millions of years. However if we started promoting understanding of environmental sustainability, empathy, and conflict resolution through education, we can cultivate a culture of peace from a young age and change direction to a caring world.

This has been true up now.

To day we have decisions been taken and made by machines, with no human understanding. So it’s essential that we have transparency if society is to be ruled by technology.

Humans Should Be in Control:

Algorithms should be tools that assist humans, not replace them entirely.

—————————

Futurists have long debated the arrival of the singularity, when human and artificial intelligence will merge.

Some form of merger is inevitable and it is taking place right now.

Of course, this “Brave New World” of a hybrid AI-human existence brings with it a plethora of issues both political and personal.

What will humans do for jobs? Could we possibly live forever? Would that change the very idea of what it means to be human?

As long as we have countries it is inevitable that we will have friction. This is why the world needs a strong United Nations.

Authoritarian systems rarely begin with mass repression. They begin by redefining who counts as a threat. And that is precisely what we are witnessing now.

When administrations label their critics as victims of “evil,” “radicalized,” or part of a “terrorist network,” it is not engaging in politics.

It is engaging in dehumanization.

History shows that once a government normalizes this language, the slide accelerates.

The state becomes both narrator and arbiter of reality. Citizens become suspects. Violence becomes self‑defense. Democracy becomes optional.

The danger we face is not only the violence we see in the world.

It is the narrative that follows:  That is the moment when democracies falter. It is the moment when the government stops speaking about its citizens as citizens.

Or we can recognize what history makes plain: once a government convinces the public that some people are enemies, it rarely stops there.

It’s time that the super wealthy were exposed. Thankfully Mr Donald Trump is doing just that.

All human comments appreciated. All like clicks and abuse chucked in the bin.
