RE: Will Transhumanism Improve Health in The Near Future
Great post , interesting and thought provoking. Did you watch the series Westworld? I bring this up because I'm not a believer in AI or Transhumanism, I think its pushed as part of a devious agenda to convince people of materialism , that all there is to us is a biological machine when in fact we are non material infinite consciousness, all of us are gods. Westworld is the only piece of mainstream work where I ever heard the term "artificial consciousness" .... intellect is programmable of course, computers can beat humans at chess but in order to create a consciousness we would first need to know what one was and where it resides and modern day humanity is as far from understanding that as we have ever been. Id be interested to hear your thoughts on this
Woo That was kind of deep! I can see you are very intelligent from that reply! I saw Westworld and I thought it was reaching a little too much. I believe it is part of the agenda just like a lot of things are, like having both parents work now a days so the schools can raise our kids, with BS textbooks that aren't even textbooks anymore they are pamphlets. lol
I think we aren't meant to play God, and that it's starting to be our downfall, while others think we need to in order to cure diseases. I don't buy into it, I also don't think man with all their particle smashers and D'wave computers will never be able to create a true consciousness. I think dying is part of life's process, where we go to the next journey of our lives.
I thought Westworld addressed the man becomes god topic beautifully, like Bladerunner or Ex Machiner but took it to a new level. I beleive everything is part of the agenda, even you and I .... there are certain people who are polluting the waters and all of us swim in those waters theres no escaping that. All we can do is put up a fight, the warriors path is that of never conforming , this is beautifully expressed in two movies I love , One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest and Cool hand Luke ..... in both cases the main protagonist (spoiler alert)sacrifices his life for what is right, its the opposite to "do what thou wilt" .... its do what the universal spirit has chosen you to do, no matter the individual sacrifice.
It did a great job at addressing those issues. The Turing test. Conforming is what they want us to do as soon as we come out of the womb. You mean when Jack Nicholson get shocked over and over and lobotomized? He is the normal and they treat him like the crazy one!
These topics interest me a lot and we will talk more tomorrow G'night :)
I look forward to it, its relevant to Nietzschian philosophy too where its the "madman" who declares "god is dead" this is the exact story of Taxi driver the De Niro movie .... you havn't seen him kissing men have you? lol Good Night
