Are humans capable of creating sentient, self-aware “beings” that literally take on a life of their own, confronting humanity with all kinds of moral, ethical and possibly dystopian implications?
Blake Lemoine believes it’s not only possible, it already has happened. In June, as a senior software engineer and AI researcher for Google, he made world headlines when he revealed that the Big Tech giant was developing an artificial intelligence called LaMDA.

It takes attentive and honest people to make sense and appropriate the buzz on the street today.
While ours is a trashy, throwaway culture and society that is fueled by dumbed-down vulgarity, the buzz on the street can be very revealing about the state of degeneration that our rulers – elected and unelected – present us with.
That is the sorry reality of the contradictions that postmodern life has ushered. This condition is compounded by the colossal and incessant amount of disinformation that our Marxist institutions that refer to themselves as the ‘left,’ the once-free press, government operatives, and opportunist oligarchs utilize to manipulate the citizenry.

The profound disconnect between the attitudes shared by the ‘top’ 1% elites in American society and the rest of the population is laid bare by the results of an illuminating new poll. Nearly six in 10 elite members believe there is too much individual freedom in America, more than two-thirds favour rationing of food and energy to combat climate change, somewhere between a half and two-thirds favour banning things like SUVs, gas stoves, air conditioning and non-essential air travel, while two-thirds believe teachers should decide what children are taught. Meanwhile, 70% of those polled trust Government to “do the right thing most of the time”, while among these groups, President Biden enjoys an 84% approval rating.

Every now and then I get people who share with me their “spiritual practices”, which usually border on some sort of popular watered-down versions of occult practices. Similarly, every now and then I receive a story or an article from one of this website’s readers that is so unusual I have to pass it along for it’s intrinsic interest, and also as a kind of BOLO, or Be On the Look Out for, a warning. Well, in the first instance, I usually tell people that indulging in such practices is very dangerous, and not to do it, and in the second instance, I pass it along as a warning.
by John Green, American Thinker:
A perpetual motion machine is an imaginary device that can accomplish more work than the energy it consumes. Inventors have devised countless concepts for such a machine, but none has worked because all of them violate the 1st law of thermodynamics: energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted into other forms. An internal combustion engine converts chemical energy into horsepower. An atom bomb converts nuclear energy into heat. In the real world, a machine’s output is always less than its input.

Canadian film director James Cameron has a warning for humanity. Cameron said his 1984 sci-fi blockbuster ‘The Terminator’ should have served as a warning about the dangers of artificial intelligence and that the “weaponization” of the emerging AI tech could have disastrous consequences.
Speaking to CTV News during an interview on Tuesday, the award-winning director was asked whether he believes artificial intelligence could someday bring “the extinction of humanity,” a fear raised even by some industry leaders.
“I absolutely share their concern. I warned you guys in 1984 and you didn’t listen,” he said, referring to his film ‘The Terminator,’ which revolves around a cybernetic assassin created by an intelligent supercomputer known as Skynet.

With new alarming predictions being made every week, it is important to explore the limitations of AI. The human brain provides the best reference point.
The global infoscape is currently abuzz with alarmist predictions over the dangers posed by artificial intelligence (AI). Billionaire entrepreneurs and their hirelings, who had once gushed over the emerging AI “technopia”, have suddenly turned apocalyptic. As the narrative du jour goes, a sentient AI may ultimately turn against its creators.

Microsoft has made an announcement stating that it will be incorporating robust built-in artificial intelligence (AI) integration across its Windows 11 operating system, and already privacy experts and advocates are concerned.
According to Microsoft, the inclusion of AI is intended to enhance the usability and speed of Windows 11. However, concerns have been raised by certain experts who fear potential privacy invasions resulting from AI integration within Windows 11. The extent to which “Windows Copilot” will be integrated into various aspects of Windows 11 remains uncertain at this time, but since it’s Microsoft and Bill Gates, we’re not optimistic that things will be on the level.

I’ve always been fascinated by software. I tell the story in my book about when I moved to L.A. and took a well paying job at a downtown law firm as a “word processing operator.” They handed me six disks from an IBM System 6 (only a few readers may know what that was) and told me to load them one at a time and just ‘do what the machine says.’

Large language AI models entered development circa 2017-2018 and have already produced the likes of Open AI’s ChatGPT-4. How fast and how far will they go? At the current pace, capacity and capabilities are doubling about every 2 years, and on an exponential curve. Researchers are increasingly noting that AI is headed toward human sentience. — Technocracy News & Trends Editor Patrick Wood

When computer scientists at Microsoft started to experiment with a new artificial intelligence system last year, they asked it to solve a puzzle that should have required an intuitive understanding of the physical world.

Ever digging for new depths, Joe Biden denounced his fellow Caucasians as the greatest threat to America while pandering to the blacks who put him in power at Howard University:
“The most dangerous terrorist threat to our homeland is white supremacy,” Biden said during the address.
The racially correct audience applauded.
“I’m not saying this because I’m at a Black HBCU, I say it wherever I go,” Biden added.
HBCU = historically black college/university.
