So, maybe instead of AI eliminating humanity it will just assimilate us into them. What a cure that would be for us. No more crime and prisons would close, no more care for monetary things. A society all thinking and working together for a common good. The quest outward from earth would be to go out and find and take new and better technology from other life forms and assimilate them into the collective as well. We won't even care about eating bugs and probably no more vaccines or politics. THIS would be the New World Order!

I enjoyed The Prisoner show, but his village is much more campy and cute than ours.

A few years ago one of my friends went to Portmeirion in full “Number 6” outfit and filmed himself running down the beach with a weather balloon attached to his wrist by a length of fishing line. Lots of puzzled expressions from people who knew nothing of the tv series. I asked him why he did it; his response “Had to be done mate!!” |

Yes, it takes a few days for Biden (between naps) to build up enough energy to issue his stern warning and/or piece of advice of "Don't".

Apart from the space stuff I think this is pretty well where things are headed, perhaps the Chinese will start doing it first but other countries will follow suit because they are afraid of falling behind. |

I had read that businesses had to provide information on how to their products worked to China in order to sell there as apparently the Chinese schools weren’t encouraging creativity through their teaching methods. American schools are dumbing down educational systems as well and going woke which will help stiffle a lot of creativity as well. At the rate the education is going, we very well need A.I. in another generation or two to develop anything new which involves more than becoming influencers and social media stars. |
