It only takes one key technology to happen to kick open the door to unlimited power in unlocking all other sinister fringe technologies possible.
If you're familiar with my works (examples below) then you guessed it, Strong AI. Strong AI
(
AGI) is currently still what we'd call a "blue sky" tech. Others would be global
scale weather control, time travel, light speed & beyond, and so on. AGI itself represents unlimited power (except the part where humans will
inevitably lose control, unless humans merge with it), while the same could be argued for the others.
I warn against assuming that AGI is decades or longer away. The thing about AGI is its the best example of the bunch as actually being possible via
examples of steady progression (in actual AI success). I've yet to read or see actual plausible designs for say a time machine, and cloud seeding is
a far stretch from space based weather control. The other key issue with AGI is its openly being pursued by virtually all levels & deptartments of
government & military, along with their 'technological elite' corporate minions with untold millions in funding.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not even saying something like time travel is in fact possible. I must point out that my warnings in areas such as
Skynet’esque AGI aren’t my own predictions. Instead, those are the predictions of those trying to make it happen. I will add that they have
compelling arguments in their favor, and the constant and ‘predictable’ technological progress that they cite does hit home in their favor. So
while overall I might be a theorist of sorts, the ‘theories’ I’ve always put the most energy towards are in fact the plausible theories of those
who I’m against.
To me, this alone is the cause for concern, even if they didn’t have compelling arguments that they might actually succeed. Look into the National
Debt and realize that this nation is already bankrupted. We can’t even afford to fund such programs even if they could ensure the whole
"Terminator" or "Matrix" scenario could actually be avoided (the AGI advocates I'm refering to all admit that it can’t without humans merging
with the AGI controlled 'collective').
My concerns would still exist even if we could afford it, and if there was no such thing as the "New World Order" or "Neocommunism". I argue the
system is designed to bankrupt all of society to ensure that the masses will never be able to afford to reap the benefits of the technologies their
tax dollars are being spent to create. Humanity still faces being run over by a freight-train juggernaut machine, even those realities aside. After
countless thousands of hours of research in recent years, I’m convinced that the tyrannical Ruling Establishment is perpetrating what most call the
"New World Order". Due to this, the implications of the Blue Sky are vastly more alarming.
Some would argue that if such a control freak establishment were in control then why would they risk their control? The easy answer would be they
believe they’ll be "gods" via such technolgies, with the nanobot neural implants jacked into the
"
mind of god", but I
argue much further.
The motivations I speak of are quite beyond just mere neural enhancement driven collective consciousness. So many times in the past, here and there,
I’ve argued that a key motivation is in kick-starting the Technological Singularity. After passing that "Event Horizon", the technological
progress of multiple exotic ‘new’ technologies such as bio and nanotechnology will go into overdrive. That would inherently mean that whatever
sorts of possibilities there are in terms of Life Extension technologies and other things could come in a few years compared to decades.
I apply the same reasoning to whatever other Blue Sky technologies one could imagine. Whatever is actually possible would become reality
‘lightyears’ faster with the advent of AGI.
In regards to Weather Control, there already exists methods and materials to modify weather in certain ways. I argue, and history shows that the
dream of military commanders would be to control weather. I argue that this would require not only specialized satellites, but also vast networks of
intelligent computational machines to be able to calculate such. While it wouldn’t surprise me if 'they' actually could control storms, I don’t
think they can yet do it under computational technologies that we know about actually existing.
The implications of weather control in the hands of a tyrannical global hegemonic empire should be obvious. What I’m concerned even more about is
actually Time Travel. In particular, anyway of sending people, materials or even simply messages of whatever sort back in time is of maximum concern.
I’d be concerned about anyone getting this actually, but the current masters of the world getting such power are to be feared most.
No one knows how things really work, if there are in fact parallel universes, meaning that if they went back and changed something it would just apply
to some other reality that wouldn’t effect us. For all we know they could already be doing it. Imagine that nightmare. There’s no telling what
would happen. Even if there are parallel universes why should some other worldwide reality be subject to such potential tyranny? Given enough time,
such tyrants could infect and desolate virtually limitless possibe realities.
That would be terrible in itself, but as far as we’re all concerned what if whatever they change only affects us? Would we even be able to notice or
prove such occurences? If there were any chance, would we be even more dumbed down and indoctrinated into deeper mindsets of absurdity to have any
chance of awakening to the evil and fighting back?
These ideas are but more reason why the advent of AGI is the most important and potentially devastating path humanity must consider. Over the years
I’ve extensively proven the Technological Establishment’s AGI Manhattan Project, as chronicled in my various works. The only theory about it is
their own, that they can do it.
I refuse to sit back and wait for the results, but for now there exists no national or global debate. They’re attempting to march us head first into
this thing, while bankrupting us all on the way there. Meanwhile a global dictatorship worldwide Police State is being built as the platform. In my
view, it’s easy to guess what such an AGI would become, according to its own designs.
Even if we could afford it, don't ignore the Blue Sky. Don’t wait for it to fall.
