Artificial Intelligence is a scam to keep us away from Conscious Technology

"sin vida no hay conciencia, sin conciencia no hay vida"


I decided to write this story after having seen a series of tweets of the same article about South African Entrepreneur Elon Musk announcing to sponsor a research on Artificial Intelligence.

Humans have been pursuing the quest for "artificial intelligence" since Czech writer Karel Čapek published his play Rossum's Universal Robots in 1920.  

According to John McCarthy, Artificial Intelligence is "the science and engineering of making intelligent machines".

Unfortunately machines won't ever be able to become intelligent because intelligence requires Consciousness and a machine doesn't have Consciousness nor you can implant Consciousness into a machine, hence you have to start over from the other way round, that means you first need Conscious material which means living biological material to develop any technology that can be defined as such. Conscious material is any living biological tissue that has a frequency which can be aligned with ours. Conscious Technology is all about this: FREQUENCY ALIGNEMENT between two living beings.

That's why when you deal with this subject you must talk of Conscious Technology and not of artificial intelligence which is absolutely a meaningless expression.  

Artificial intelligence is an oxymoron as Intelligence is Consciousness and Consciousness can't be "artificial" otherwise it couldn't be "Conscious". 

As a matter of fact, for the reason explained in this article, when the media show a future technological scenario it's always about robots and cyborgs and we have been presented with this narrative a million times since 1920.

In practice Artificial Intelligence is robotics. The only problem with this path is that it is completely wrong because as I said you have to start from the biological side and not from the machine or the software because software and machines are made of dead material and they cannot become conscious because they are not "living".

Consciousness is like Parmenides concept of being: "what is is, and what is not cannot be" in other words nothing comes from nothing and Artificial Intelligence is nothing. 

As I said if we want to talk about real technological evolution we must approach this matter from the opposite way, that means if you really want to step into the future in terms of technology you must approach the matter of Consciousness, which still at today for our "official science" represents a total mystery and here ends our quest for technological advancement because everything "Conscious" is absolutely taboo for the official science of this planet.

Indeed our "official science" is still stuck where it was two hundred years ago at the double slit experiment, as scientists from planet earth still claim that Quantum Mechanics can only be applied at level of atoms and photons, as according to classical physics everything Quantum is still "inexplicable".

I repeat it once again just in case you didn't get it:

Classical physics defines Quantum Physics inexplicable.  

Why in the world Quantum Physics would be "inexplicable"?

Quantum Physics was discovered more than two hundred years ago when in 1803 Thomas Young performed the famous double-slit experiment. That experiment revealed for the first time the role of Consciousness as the ground state of physics. Although for obvious reasons official science has been vehemently denying such role to this day. Why? Because powers that be cannot acknowledge Consciousness as the basis of the whole Universe as the world's institutions would instantly crumble on themselves. 

For these reasons, official science is forcely stuck in its Neanderthalian materialistic mentality that the physical universe exists as it presents itself, even if Quantum Physics undermined the very notion of physical objects at its foundation, as the universe is not solid, tangible, or fixed, because it's based upon Consciousness. 

Therefore even if the old science of an "external" physical universe has been mortally wounded by quantum physics, official science is persisting in its state of denial and that's why it keeps talking of such nonsense as "artificial intelligence" and cyborgs, because such dystopic vision is coherent with their denial of Consciousness. 

You may easily grasp that if official science denies the role of Consciousness we can't make any meaningful step forward in terms of technology as it would be like building a ship whilst denying the existence of water. 

In other words for a real technological leap we should swap technology with Consciousness as these two words are synonyms somehow, as there's no technological device more powerful and more advanced than Consciousness itself.

Such a comparison gets more meaningful if you consider that Consciousness is the very essence of the multiverse in which we live, as everything that compose the wholeness is Consciousness.

As Deepak Chopra said: "Consciousness is fundamental and without cause. It is the ground state of existence. As conscious beings, humans cannot experience measure or conceive of a reality devoid of consciousness."

If that's the situation, why science still denies the existence of Consciousness and its crucial role in technological advancement? 

Because one thing is absolutely certain: if we don't take Consciousness as the starting point of any future technology we'll stay where we are stuck right now: in the darkness.

The Arms industry might be one of the reason why Consciousness is still a taboo:

in an op-ed appeared in The Independent in 2014 Stephen Hawking wrote: “Success in creating Artificial Intelligence would be the biggest event in human history, unfortunately, it might also be the last, unless we learn how to avoid the risks...in the near term, world militaries are considering autonomous-weapon systems that can choose and eliminate targets.”

That's it. In this statement not only Hawkings keeps consciousness out of artificial intelligence but it also denies its very meaning at its roots as he defines a weapon system autonomous but dangerous. 
Why an autonomous system should be dangerous? well because it's not conscious.....and if it's not conscious that means it cannot be intelligent either....

Unfortunately for Mr. Hawking and for the military, if you start developing conscious technology you have to stand for Consciousness, that means the whole purpose of development, application and scope of the project must be respectful of the essence of Consciousness which is life. 

You can't use a living fabric for something that is not righteous in its objective. For example if you build a weapon that is conscious, that weapon won't ever shoot for the wrong reason. That's why Conscious Tech can't be developed on this planet at this time as our civilisation has been distinguishing itself for being sociopath in nature. Murder, war, violence is everyday business on this planet and our governments still rule by fear and terror which is just the opposite of  what Consciousness is.

Can you imagine earthling researchers developing a technology that has not belligerent application but its opposite?

Can you imagine the military industrial complex engaged in developing something that excludes the possibility of killing or harming someone as a preset setting? or even worse, a technology that will instantly vaporize any human fear? Not in this space-time.

Fear is the most important tool for the elite ruling this planet, if it vanishes for good that would be the end of their ruling.

On the other side this adversion for Consciousness and the adoration of fear are absolutely coherent with the pursue of artificial intelligence which is the denial of Consciousness.

In the past few years a series of dystopyan scenarios have been forecasted by a number of news articles warning on the dangers of artificial intelligence like a possible "Rise of the Machines". 

Fear.

It is kind of interesting to notice that those forecasting a possible disastrous outcome from AI are the very same people who are actually working on the development of Artificial Intelligence, including that genius of Mr. Elon Musk.

Mr. Musk is the guy who is the lead investor of this amazing futuristic technology, together with a number of other enthusiastic Silicon Valley investors who I don't think would be that happy when they'll find out that by investing in AI they simply wasted their money. 

I don't think either that Silicon Valley entrepreneurs are that silly to invest in a Ponzi scheme like AI and that's why I am 100% positive this research is just a big hoax for the press and a further distraction for the sleeping Consciousness of the silent majority.

The cover up on Conscious Technology is so intense that they are using every mean to disinform people on this matter. I just found this article published by nothing less than The World Economic Forum, whose headline goes "What is Conscious Technology?" but if you read the article it doesn't explains Conscious Technology  but it talks about the artificial intelligence and other nonsensical stuff like unspecified dangerous threats awaiting ahead of us. It really makes no sense especially for a supposed prestigious media like the WEF. 

On the other side I have found someone who really grasped what Conscious Technology means and that's Dr. Rachel Armstrong, who talks about "living architecture", "living spaceships" and this is exactly what I mean when I talk about Conscious Technology.

However with this piece I just wanted to let you know that artificial intelligence is the usual nonsense provided to you by our official science only to keep yourself away from Consciousness (did I just write that?).

It might sound paradoxical but this scheme is actually been working big time if you consider that official science was able to downgrade quantum physics to a minor rank of study and managed to keep it stuck at the same level it had when it started in 1804 and that's 200 years ago. Being able to keep something invisible for 200 years it means either you're Houdini or you have a crowd of narcolexic people.

The official science can be pretty confident to make you believe that artificial intelligence is the new thing and that its development can carry dangerous consequences to humankind. As I said before  intelligence cannot be "artificial" and by consequence if you call "intelligent" something that is not then you are in trouble. Because "intelligent" indicates someone that can make autonomous independent decisions and this is the lie, because no conscious entity could ever make autonomous, independent decisions. If you consider that AI is applied to military technology, that's the formula for disaster.

However the problem of Conscious Technology is that being the ONLY way to technological advancement it would be impossible for our civilization to take that direction because our world is based upon fake values like money, fear and work (read slavery) which are just the opposite of Consciousness, hence we still have a long way to go before we would get even close to Conscious Tech. 

For the moment, just keep in mind that the only way to Evolution is the Evolution of Consciousness.

GOP's Astroturfing defeated by Consciousness

On Facebook it's plenty of anti-conservative groups and social pages publishing cartoons or funny images portraying the latest devilish outburst of these "wingnuts", as Right Wing Extremists are usually called by the liberal media.

You can read the latest Bill O' Reilly's nonsensical rant about "Obamacare promoting selfishness" or Ken Cuccinelli raving that "oral sex is a communist plot". 

For some reason, wingnuts use harsh and blatant tones like if they're always addressing a brawling crowd in a night cellar.

Instead this is not something to laugh at. These people's communication strategy is extremely and carefully pondered. Their nonsensical rants over extremely sensitive social issues are all part of a nefarious strategy to attract the sympathy of their audience segment and beyond. 

The GOP's communication strategy is basically focused on one single keyword: Emotions. 

Playing with emotions is the key to reach the people's emotional sphere bypassing their consciousness and rationality.

By Doing so they make people let them into their emotional sphere so that they can prop up their huge clashing contradictions, because average people's mind relies on the very basic principle that "seeing is believing". 

Just an example: after having tried to repeal for 42 times the Healthcare reform which aims at saving the lives of about 50.000 people each year and tried to cut $40 bn of food stamps which support 40 millions of American citizens and after having threatened to shut down the government to defund Obamacare, Republican Senator Ted Cruz was portrayed while praying hand in hand with other "people" in front of the White House. A real display of hypocrisy indeed.

However instead of having bystanders spitting on his face, (they probably hired an army of policemen plus private security) he made himself the opportunity to take this picture:

What he was praying for? These are the kind of questions average people don't ask themselves, as average people only see the exterior side: "this humble politician asks for the help of god". It doesn't matter if he's a mass killer. He's praying hand in hand with an elderly citizen, a woman, a pastor and a black man. This picture is a flashy postcard that aims at representing a stereotyped old fashioned image of a society, (which doesn't exist anymore), tied-in by the faithful Republican man. 

Although in this picture there's nothing of today's real society, there is no same-sex family and there are no children. This picture is Astroturfing(1) at its best. 

First of all this picture lacks authenticity because these propaganda amateurs made two major mistakes: 

1) the first is they "forgot" to include children and they did it on purpose because otherwise the attention would have been focused on the kids instead of Ted Cruz whose face is the missile that has to reach the emotional side of the audience. 2) The biggest mistake is represented by the fact that praying is a very intimate moment and such a public display of "faith" is at least anachronistic, because people today do not pray in public and it belongs more to a psychiatric environment rather than politics. 

Praying is a moment of intimacy between yourself and God, so the public display of faith is something that only prophets and saints have done in the past and Republicans chose to present a medieval setting which confirms their refusal to accept reality and their living in total denial. 

The intentions of this very-non-subliminal message is "Ted Cruz is a prophet". A prophet that aims at cutting people's food stamps and healthcare assistance. Amen. 

However in order to be successful, such a public performance needs extremely talented players because otherwise, (like in this case) the outcome can be a total disaster and it can produce opposite effects of what you desired in the first place.

While Astroturfing is a wonderful idea, you always have to consider that human beings are substantially "living Consciousness", who carry values and beliefs, (unless they are complete sociopaths).

Unfortunately for these amateurs, Consciousness is unable to lie and you can't hide it in a box and unless you hire professional actors, Consciousness always outs to manifest its real feelings, despite what the script says. Nonetheless even if these people perfectly knew it, they insisted using non-professional actors for these public display of religious faith.

Archetypal postures is a subject of study within the discipline of Anthropology, the science that studies human behavior. If you look at the praying picture above and focus your attention on the green-dressed woman kneeling on the right side of the picture, you will notice that her head does not bow down straight ahead but it's clearly turned to her lower-left, while usually when you pray you bow the head down as a sign of submission to God, not towards the left or the right. 

Why this woman turns her head to her left-down side instead of bowing her head straight ahead? 

Shame. 

Despite what she's been told to do, this woman's consciousness made its way up to the surface and she's actually not even looking left, she's looking away in sign of shame. She feels ashamed of what she's doing because she knows what she's doing is not ethical and not moral according to the values she grew up with. 

This posture not only is able to literally kill the picture, but to completely destroy the whole plan of showing faith, because the picture thanks to this woman, acquires a new meaning and the new meaning is "the revolt of Consciousness". You can tell her attitude is coherent because she's the only one who doesn't hold the hand of the fellow next to her, interrupting the human chain while the old man next to her he's hiding himself too, but he's not displaying the same level of shame she is.

Unfortunately for these "Astroturfing amateurs", Consciousness always outs, and what's even worse is that the photographer (just for pure luck) was able to catch one of those rarest moments in life in which you see Consciousness in action. 

That woman's unique pose indeed represents the moment in which Consciousness embodies an archetypal feeling that is already present in the collective imagery, which is something that takes place once in a million times. And that feeling is Shame. But not simple shame, Universal Shame. The Archetypal Shame. The picture was probably taken by chance or by a unique combination of factors that happen when the Universe collides together with Consciousness.

That picture will go down in history as a  legendary iconic image of Consciousness Awakening and its value is incommensurate. 

What really makes it a bad-luck event for Ted Cruz and his gang is the fact that Archetypal Shame is universally recognizable because archetypal postures are the most powerful way to transmit a message to an universal audience. 

Indeed while trying to Astroturfing religious faith and submission to God, Ted Cruz managed to do something that completely destroyed the chance of any future attempt towards that direction by anyone. 

Because that woman, (whose identity is unknown) will be remembered in history books as the manifesto of  the power of Human Consciousness. That means "you can't lie to your own Consciousness", you can't stage a fake feeling such as compassion or faith because Consciousness will always out and completely destroy your pathetic attempt to stage the most desperate of human acts: praying. 

Humans pray when they are desperate, when they need the help of a superior force. These people are not desperate for help, (indeed they are but in another sense). These are just political cyborgs who are told what to do and they do it, but one among them has some Consciousness left. And that's when the real miracle happens!

This is the greatest lesson these "people" could have ever received: if you carry things too far that's what happens: you get punished by your own meanness! That's what Consciousness usually does...and you can tell this is exactly what happened here because the effect that this picture produces is the exact opposite of its initial intentions.   

Indeed all the Democratic forces on the planet should say "Thank you" to Ted Cruz, because thanks to his hypocritical initiative and his absolutely contradictory nefarious intentions, once again Consciousness prevailed. And that's a lesson these people won't forget. 

This picture in my opinion not only represents the end of these people's Astroturfing Politics, but the starting point of a new era, the era of the inevitable truth of Consciousness.

(1) Astroturfing is the practice of masking the sponsors of a message (e.g. political, advertising, or public relations) to give the appearance of it coming from a disinterested, grassroots participant. The term astroturfing is a derivation of AstroTurf, a brand of synthetic carpeting designed to look like natural grass.
