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.

THE BEADY EYE SAYS THAT WE ARE NOW LIVING IN A WORLD OF EXISTENCE NOT A WORLD OF LIVING.

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.

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.

THE BEADY EYE ASKS ARE WE WITH ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE LOOSING THE MEANING OF OUR LIVES?

( Seven minute read)

Life is all around us. In most cases it has evolved and is still evolving, but are we coming to the end of its evolutionary ability with AGI.

Life I suppose is that which we choose to give it.

According to Wikipedia :

“ The  meaning of life is the concept of an individual’s life’s human life, or existences in general having an inherent significance or a philosophical point.”

“There is no consensus on the specifics of such a concept, or whether the concept itself even exists in any objective sense.”

It’s not a mood or an achievement, but a way of seeing reality clearly and still saying yes to life.

With the arrival of the internet / social media/ profit seeking Algorithms/ and the forthcoming AGI it’s becoming boring because joy is less about ease and more about connection, openness, and love.

We are already trading the complex diversity of human thought for an ultra-processed linguistic diet.

The traditional advice to “trust your eyes and ears” has become dangerously obsolete, as has our tendency toward “seeing is believing.”

But can Hybrid intelligence, marry human intuition with AI’s analytical rigor, can amplify human potential.

As we move toward a hybrid future, the intimate relationship between natural intelligence and artificial intelligence  (AI) is becoming essential to our identity.

We’ve entered an era of hybrid intelligence where the line between our words and the algorithms that suggest them blurs.

The loss of linguistic diversity may be the first warning sign of deeper issues ahead.

Consider what happens when an AI knows you’re most susceptible to emotional appeals late at night, understands exactly which conspiracy theories align with your existing anxieties, and can deploy that knowledge with perfect timing.

Language is more than a communication tool; it’s the scaffolding of thought. 

We are in the midst of a rupture of life on Earth with not just AI but climate change and the ignorance of a United States president named Donald Dump tearing what left of world order, it’s time we stood up and be counted.

It would be fair to say that we are now on borrowed time to do anything about the direction of life is going.

How we answer this is as it always has been will determine our lives.

Unfortunately with AI we are no longer sure what the right choice is.

My personal opinion is that I am applaud by the lack of attention our governments are paying to the problems that AI is creating, which is and will be on a vast scale.

If we don’t now enshrine human values into a future with AGI it will create its own values.

We readily embrace the promise of effortless efficiency.

But are we trading the complex diversity of human thought for eco chambers.

In work and life environments where AI is increasingly pervasive, our brains consume linguistic fast food—sweet and easy to swallow, but lacking the complex nutrients of local dialect, spicy slang, and idiosyncratic quirks.

Are we heading toward a future where vocabularies become uniform, mirroring how American fast food exported a simplified flavor palette worldwide?

The implications extend beyond language.

Beyond concerns about linguistic marginalization, we should worry about the homogenization of certain values and mindsets. 

Consider how AI handles conflict resolution.

JAI productivity tools assume time is linear, scarce, and must be optimized, a distinctly Western industrial framework.

Even concepts of time reflect cultural bias.

To prevent mental fast-foodization, we must practice active cognitive resistance, which starts with double literacy: using AI for efficiency while maintaining the natural intelligence to judge, critique, and override it.

Accept AI as part of our cognitive ecosystem, but don’t accept its outputs as truth or finality. 

These same technologies are learning to exploit the very cognitive shortcuts that helped our ancestors survive, shortcuts that now make us vulnerable to manipulation at a unprecedented scale.

Live your life don’t let it be sold as a product for profit.

Our mind is our biggest friend and enemy when it comes to the hybrid future.

AI can deceive us, but only if we adopt an attitude of chosen blindness will it succeed.

Social media platforms exploit these tendencies brilliantly, offering instant dopamine  hits from likes and shares, training us to crave quick emotional rewards rather than slower, more demanding forms of understanding.

Then time has come to open our eyes and look at what we’d rather not see.

THE BEADY EYE ASKS. WHY ARE WE FASCINATED BY VIOLENCE ?

We all have different personalities, mental models, emotions, needs, wants, goals, values and beliefs, which shaped who we are and partially determined what we do.

It begs the question: what kind of mind wants to witness violence – adrenaline junkies.

What does it say about us—individually, culturally, psychologically—that cruelty has become entertainment, and aggression has become identity?

The attraction to violence doesn’t come out of nowhere.

We don’t crave violence because we’re cruel—we crave it because we’re human.

Because it gives structure to chaos, power to the powerless, and a feeling—any feeling—when we’ve gone emotionally numb.

Why do we settle in for an evening with movies drenched in bloodshed?

Human beings are not simply passive consumers of story; we are meaning-makers wired for survival.

In a sense, violent media allows the viewer to outsource their primal fears to someone else’s narrative.

We get to watch someone else survive—or perish—while we stay in control of our environment.

But the way that violence is packaged, consumed, and even glorified is not the same across cultures.

When we examine global media patterns, American media differs from other societies when it comes to glamorizing aggression.

American media, in particular, has made violence synonymous with excitement, justice, and even virtue.

And the internet has made the distribution of violence easy. With a few clicks, anyone can access footage that would have once been buried or censored.

Social media is saturated with violence in all its forms and it is influenced us to the extent that we are risking becoming spectators in our own lives—watching pain like a plot point, framing suffering as something that needs to be “dealt with,” rather than witnessed.

And slowly, almost imperceptibly, we lose touch with our own moral compass.

It’s not just about the moment—it’s about the culture we’ve absorbed. We’ve been taught that dominance is clarity. That loudness is leadership. That the one who controls the room controls the truth.

But this isn’t emotional strength—it’s emotional fragility dressed as certainty.

And it’s costing us more than we think.

It is possible to choose curiosity over compulsion, presence over passivity, humanity over brutality.

However it will never feel as easy. It won’t give you the instant gratification of a fight scene. It won’t resolve in 90 minutes. It takes more from you—but it gives more in return.

The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) has sparked a frenzy well beyond the technology sector.

For example: The gaming world is saturated with violence.

Today’s technological era would astonish past generations.  Unlike the past when the march of history was at a stately pace it is now not constant — it is rapidly accelerating.

Everything around us seems to be changing at breakneck speed. Twenty years ago, smartphones were niche products.

The emerging power and associated risks of AI doesn’t just exist in their training datasets.

From fraud detection and customer service to cyber security analytics and risk scoring, AI algorithms are now influence outcomes across the face of the globe.

It’s not surprising that the public is developing a false sense of security that superintelligence is not an urgent risk to society. 

Like it or not, there is increasing evidence that frontier AI systems do not just store text patterns as statistical correlations, but also build structured internal representations (i.e., “world models”) that abstract the concepts described in the ingested content.

AI systems can solve problems that do not exist in their training datasets, thereby demonstrating out-of-distribution reasoning.

In addition, today’s large models can solve problems presented in formats other than text descriptions. 

I say all of this as someone who believes society should-not be racing to build superintelligent systems.

I believe that AI systems will become smarter and faster than individual humans by a wide margin, but that does not guarantee that the systems will represent human interests, morals, or sensibilities when solving problems.

Knowing humans might be good but that is not the same as being human.

In the age of polarization Artificial Intelligence through Social Media is amplifying societal polarization.,

AI could create destabilizing shifts in the balance of power or negatively influence human strategic judgment in ways that fuel misperceptions it will cause wars.

As extremist groups and state actors weaponize social media, the rise of AI threatens to amplify these risks at a scale that was previously unimaginable.

AI can make war faster, more brutal, and far more impersonal.

The potential for AI misidentifying targets, being hacked, or malfunctioning is immense not to mention that it is more or less unaccountable.

This is the most urgent problem – to create some way of making AI and its algorithms ACCOUNTABILITY. As with all powerful technologies, advanced AI must be handled with great responsibility to manage the risks and harness its potential.

People could intentionally harness powerful AIs to cause widespread harm.

The list of harmful possibilities.,

1) AI could be used to engineer new pandemics or for propaganda, censorship, and surveillance, or released to autonomously pursue harmful goals.

2) Competition could push nations and corporations to rush AI development, relinquishing control to these systems. Conflicts could spiral out of control with autonomous weapons and AI-enabled cyberwarfare.

3). There are risks that organizations developing advanced AI cause catastrophic accidents, particularly if they prioritize profits over safety. AIs could be accidentally leaked to the public or stolen by malicious actors, and organizations could fail to properly invest in safety research. 

4). AIs could optimize flawed objectives, drift from their original goals, become power-seeking, resist shutdown, and engage in deception, catapulting humanity into a new period of unprecedented change.

The rapid and unpredictable progression of AI capabilities suggests that they may soon rival the immense power of nuclear weapons.

With the clock ticking, immediate, proactive measures are needed to mitigate these looming risks.

Infinite growth on a finite planet is probably the biggest lie.

If anyone thinks that this transition is not going to be easy or smooth they better open their eyes as there is no focus on safety.

In the next three to ten years this transition is going to happen.
