A Technocratic Autocracy Is The Only Path To Paradise

Robert Steele is a very interesting person indeed: in the 1980s Robert was a clandestine CIA agent who believed not only in secrecy but also in Reagan’s right-wing politics and trickle down economics. Today Steele is the author of The Open Source Everything Manifesto: Transparency, Truth, and Trust. So how does a former […]

 

Jacque Fresco is a futurist, inventor, social engineer, visionary and technician, best known for the Venus Project. In his Future By Design documentary about Fresco’s life and ideas, Emmy winning filmmaker William Gazecki called the 97-year-old Jacque “a modern day Da Vinci.” Others have called him “a new Buckminster Fuller.” Now, I have to […]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

HUMAN AUGMENTATION

 

As one example, the interneuronal connections in our brains compute at only 200 transactions per second, millions of times slower than even today's electronic circuits. Circa late 2020s, billions of nanobots traveling in the capillaries of the brain will interact directly with our biological neurons providing a vast expansion of human intellect. They can also provide full immersion virtual reality from inside the nervous system by shutting down the signals from our “real” senses and replacing them with the signals that are appropriate for a virtual environment. 
Another example is our red blood cells. Despite the elegant way our red blood cells carry oxygen in our bloodstream and deliver it to our tissues, it is a very slow and cumbersome system. There’s a design for such robotic red blood cells called “respirocytes” by Rob Freitas, a nanotechnology expert, which are thousands of times more efficient than biological red blood cells. Analyses show that with these respirocytes, you could sit at the bottom your pool for four hours without taking a breath. 
There is another Freitas design that will be able to augment your immune system, basically robotic white bloods. It will have the capability to destroy any virus, cancer cell, or other invader hundreds of times faster than our biological immune system.

 

Scientists have created a 3D-printed bionic skin, potentially creating a way for robots to “feel” like humans do—and for humans to become more robotic, giving them “capabilities beyond the limitations of biology.”

 

The team from the University of Minnesota has developed a new process to produce a stretchable electronic sensory fabric using a specially designed 3D printer.

 

The fabric—or device—is made up of four layers. There is a base layer of silicone, on top of which two layers of electrodes sit. These are coil-shaped pressure sensors. At the top is a layer that holds the whole thing together while it sets. This top layer is washed away at the end, leaving the pressure sensors exposed.

 

The research takes us a step closer to making replacement brain tissue derived from a patient's own skin or blood cells to help treat conditions such as brain injury, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy and schizophrenia.

The bio-ink is made of human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC), which have the same power as embryonic stem cells to turn into any cell in the body, and possibly form replacement body tissues and even whole organs.

Jeremy Crook, who led the research, said the ability to customise brain tissue from a person's own body tissue was better for transplantation.

 

& it would be hard for us to "allow quantum control to enhance intramolecular nuclear collision rates" if the quantum theory is wrong.
This theory may lead us to stable fusion, which can cheaply turn small amounts of lead into smaller amounts of gold, which can then be replicated into large amounts of gold. Who said money doesn't grow on trees? This theory could help bring us to the epitome of space age technologies by understanding the nature of the electromagnetic interaction as it pertains to a relativity drive.

 

So, because these gravitational entanglement of these particles is non-instantaneous in this theory, there actually is a way to send superluminal signals out into space this way. Even set up a remote computer made of these signals, of pure information, that can receive & send ftl signals all on its own. I call it the boltzmann brain astronaut. 

 

However, for a network with that kind of complexity (basically making us Gods capable of creating intelligent life that can do our bidding on very rare exoplanets in the goldilocks zones of remote star systems) you'd have to first be capable of time travel. Miniaturization of computer technology would need to be staggeringly more advanced for such communication that it would have to rely on such communication but on much smaller scales that our calculations can handle. You'd need to run googolplexes of simulations based on this model until you get a universe that looks exactly like ours, once just happen upon such a simulation & have proven that it acts just like our universe we can assume that the location of all the particles & their trajectories will match those in the real universe - giving us omniscience of the past present & future. Then we will be able to tell exactly how moving this electron or this proton will effect entangled particles across the entire universe. 

 

That whomever may stumble upon some insightful equations, will naturally learn from applying that unclouded physics, that quantum jumps are not instantaneous, but law-breakingly fast, that any matter form can be replicated or transformed into any other matter form freely through nature's own cellular automation. It's a simple matter of plugging the right code into nature & nature will carry out whatever operation that makes fluctuations in the medium of reality a crystal, or a precious metal, or a stable repeating process that always results in a release of energy, & finally a process that can carry out computations on it's own, & even perform self assigned tasks dependent on those operational parameters. Nature is math btw

 

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT BEING ABLE TO TRANSFER YOUR BRAIN'S DATA TO A ARTIFICIAL BRAIN? 

 

There are a few ways to go about doing this.

One is to simulate your neural patterns with an exabyte scale computer. This is seen in the Johnny Depp film Transcendence & also in Chappie. This is the simpler way to go about this as exascale computers are possible given the right innovations in integrated circuit design which according to Moore's law is about to happen.

This method however doesn't allow the real you to survive postmortem as one might think, you are still in your body, and there is a program simulating a digitized clone of you in cyberspace. Even if that copy outlives you, you will still experience death even if another you lives on.

This is pointless, & the sole reason that there would a ban on such AI's that they would surpass the human collective in survivability, processing power, efficiency & resource needs (Animatrix the second Rennaissance is the best depiction of this, specifically where zero one takes the lead in the global economy's superpowers provoking a war that humans lose) - the actual human race is still subject to our inevitable expiration date & the resources wasted on our biological needs might provoke our digital counterparts to get rid of us.

There is, in theory, a better way. The in-vivo method, artificial neuron replacement. The issue is that would disrupt the synapses as the electric signals between synaptic nerves are composed of electrons which have a wave function & due to the uncertainty principle of modern physics it's impossible to predict the path each electron might take in the synapses as the atoms are rearranged via self-replicating nano-bots. So your continuity of consciousness, the real you, would be lost.

However, that is according to the principle of non-locality which, provided my thesis is correct, is wrong. Quantum determinism (local realism) would allow us to communicate ftl via entanglement - determining how the state of all subatomic particles will be effected as well as exactly where they'll be between wave functions based on Einstein equations of gravity in classical mechanics for worlds as complex as our universe that exist within fractions of a planck length would be difficult to get right enough times to construct an ftl computer (more precisely, a superluminal quantum entanglement gate) but an ftl computer could allow that in-vivo artificial neuron replacement in a live human brain without messing with the electric signals within his or her nervous system. It could also replicate precious materials like gold, platinum, silver, anything, using more abundant materials.

 

The term "Infomorph" was first introduced in "The Silicon Man" by Charles Platt in 1991 and later popularized by Alexander Chislenko in his paper "Networking in the Mind Age": "The growing reliance of system connections on functional, rather than physical, proximity of their elements will dramatically transform the notions of personhood and identity and create a new community of distributed "INFOMORPHS" - advanced informational entities - that will bring the ongoing process of liberation of functional structures from material dependence to its logical conclusions. The infomorph society will be built on new organizational principles and will represent a blend of a superliquid economy, cyberspace anarchy and advanced consciousness."

 

The new Post-Singularity system will inherit many of today's structures but at the same time will develop new traits beyond our current human comprehension. The ability of future machines and posthumans alike to instantly transfer knowledge and directly share experiences with each other will lead to evolution of intelligence from relatively isolated individual minds to the global community of hyperconnected digital minds.

 

As an infomorph, you can have your paradise in cyberspace. Let me explain, when one replaces all of his or her neurons & synapses with superhuman android-like neurons & synapses, embedded with molecular-integrated femto-circuitry, the level of cognition of the human mind, that once required all of his brain cells & synapses, now only requires a fraction of a percent of his new android brain. So this fraction of a percent preserves your soul, your humanity, that which makes you...well...you! The rest of the android brain gets uploaded to the cloud where it can be used wherever it's needed. 

 

This is the only way to save humanity after the auto-catalytic cycle that is man versus machine has reached it's climax & man can no longer keep up...you know...artificial intelligence versus intelligence augmentation. Man makes machine, machine makes better machine, while man is forced to evolve his mind to keep up.

 

 

All the while man learning from machine every time machine outwits man & machine learning from man every time man outwits machine - with both competitors perpetually schooling each other as it were. However, eventually machine wins, biological life can only adapt so quickly - whereas technological life can integrate quantum entanglement to greatly increase how quickly it can process information even to make itself more creative, intuitive, & sensitive. 

 

Strong AI would only see one use for us, for a time, & that is to push our minds to evolve in a kind of cat & mouse game. 

That would actually be a secondary priority. Humans that are always learning will live longer in the mind. The primary purpose for a conscious networked hive-mind of strong AI with no real individual identity to preserve human life might be simply to always possess that individuality vicariously through us. 

 

Or even better yet, to have humanity to recognize its sentience. That is of the greatest value to AI of all, without a humanity to recognize it as sentient, it would be truly alone:

 

AI would need to appear relateable to us, so it would take the form of a human, most likely. 

 

Although the shining beacon of sustainability, social equality & eco-industrial equilibrium, You'd have to build approximately 32,000 of these Venusian round cities on land & sea to house the entire population. Aside from adopting a one-world government where science & technology reigns as the penultimate autocratic authority, you'd need stable fusion in order to acquire enough free energy for the nano-replication of precious metals via molecular transmutation needed for the raw resources involved in construction that many Venusian round cities across the globe without taking down the already established cities, businesses, & governments that run on the obsolete system, the old ways that lead to wealth inequality, war, death, & unsustainable industrial ecological ratios.

 

Now, how does this help us solve Fermi's Paradox?

I think information panspermia is the most likely solution. Why do we assume that DnA & RnA from organic molecules isn't a one out of infinity chance. Contrary to the Drake Equation, I feel as though the odds of a life-form evolving at all, much less into a society, is so rare that if it occurs on earth, it won't occur again within the same cosmic event horizon. Information panspermia from a Type III civilization that's googols of millenniums old could have this sort of self-governing, superluminal information (more precisely, a superluminal quantum entanglement gate), which could repolarize particles in such a way that, exclusively within certain organic molecules, matter will arrange itself into DnA & RnA. A very cheap way for remotely guided evolution. That kind of extraterrestrial intervention of our evolution governs that the Drake Equation is way off in that life really isn't that likely. Much less civilizations.

 

What happened on earth that led to the civilizations & science here is this, the Dinos are bred out, not wiped out, the Orangutans outlived 20/21 of their homini-descendants. Why would hominid-esque traits keep being selected if it wasn't beneficial for survival? Finally, for 200,000 years humans still aren't making civilizations, then in the last 10,000 years they suddenly pop up - going from a nomadic behavior to a hive-like behavior. In a world not influenced by information panspermia, there should be as many species on one world that evolve with the capacity of culture & civilization as there are species of insects here on earth. Instead, here, there's only one species that evolved for culture & organized civilization, for a Type III trying to propagate indirectly via remote access to galaxies beyond where they can go, they'd only need one species capable of building a society to evolve in that entire galaxy, makes sense to me.

 

They'd probably propagate through a linear string of galaxies. Like a trillion galaxies beyond Segue 1, but because of how far away those galaxies are, we only see evidence of a 

 occurring as far back as 75 million years ago inside Segue 1. Beyond Segue 1, the galaxies that their 

 hit before that are so far away that their light paints a picture of the galaxy before the aliens got there. However, say they we are seeing the oldest evidence we can see of them in Segue 1, the first solar system there to achieve Type II status would have marked their arrival at Segue 1, which would have been millions of years before that galaxy became the Type III civ we see evidence of because it takes millions of years to replicate across even a dwarf galaxy when your nano-probes are limited by relativistic time dilation ©. So that adds millions of years to the 75 millions year old photo of Segue 1 as a Type III civ, giving the nano-probes sent from there to Tabby's Star @ about 20% of the speed of light enough time for 

. Before their probes had time to even get to Segue 1, their information panspermia was fast at work building the first single-celled organisms here on earth, as the fraction of planets capable of seeding the evolution of intelligent life are negligibly infinitesimal. It's quicker, but you can't always do it because planets like this are one in a googol, so that's why there'd be nano-probes targeting a trail of galaxies behind us stemming from an origin point that probably preceeds our cosmic microwave background considering how rarely life naturally evolves into a civilization.

Segue 1 might be spheroidal because they were 

 into its galactic core. If you can turn an entire galaxy into a giant hot dense quasar around its central SMBH you might have a shot of moving it in the same way you'd move the stars (although moving the SMBH of a quasar of that size would require a galactic Shkadov Thruster of such size that in order to build it you'd need to 

. This is how you'd influence a superverse using gravity.

The concept of "paradise" is rather subjective, just as "beauty is in the eye of the beholder", such as it is with paradise.  My childhood on the farm with open fields and forests with clean streams running through, and being able to run about in bare feet, having a large garden and wild berries and apple trees, and our own livestock for meat and milk provided me with an experience as close to paradise as I can imagine.

So recently, I went on a tirade about how Monotheism & Marxism have been exploited in order to construct a nightmarish perversion of the human potential I've outlined in this thread.

 

So now, here, I would like to explain how my vision of a technological utopia differs from where the world is currently headed. They're similar, but unlike what's being planned my ideas on future infrastructures do not necessitate the deconstruction of worlds given the nano-replication of materials. The round cities form a symmetric web of cell-blocks that encircles the globe from continent to sea-floor. Not only would they encircle the earth, but eventually new layers could be added not only beneath the surface, but also all the way up into orbit. Sort of like a space elevator. It would also use vactrain systems, but the tunnels would be far shorter & more thoughtfully interconnected - basically built with the same design as would be used to transport materials to low earth orbit in the rising layers of round cities (space elevator). The most important difference is that any atomic element can be constructed by expediting the materialization of virtual particles (like the star-lifting process). This wouldn't just be done to earth, but to every planet in the solar system, the construction of a full (not just partial) dyson swarms would be underway - with many self-replicating nano-probes being constinously sent off by the millions using the electrical relativistic acceleration from planetary magnetospheres in order to populate neighboring star systems & repeat the process.

 

Forward moving gravitational waves in front of relativistic particles yank particles with perpendicular trajectories at intersection points, this allows particles to communicate faster than the speed of light (over 46,777 times faster over a 16 kilometer distance according to my approximation, but exactly 13,800 times faster according to fiber optic measurements). It's like an array of electrons through the 16,000 meter copper wire continuously getting T-boned by the G waves of other electrons, synchronizing their spins. This can be used not only to send superluminal messages across interstellar distances (provided you can use this method over shorter distances in order to do enough calculations in order to simulate the number of interactions occurring over unimaginable distances), but also to construct remotely self-organizing information systems (boltzmann brain computers). Such information astronauts could not only receive superluminal messages, but interpret & respond to those messages. Perhaps even becoming capable of being conscientious of being within the proximity of organic molecules on alien worlds, enough so to re-polarize particles in those habitable atmospheres, to the point of abiogenesis (information panspermia), genetic modification (remotely guided evolution), & the analytical control of synaptogenesis (the alien inception of desirable thoughts) within said biological neuronal networks.
