Throughout human existence, the relationship between conflict and technology has underscored the themes of challenges and progress. It is the quiet truth of our species that we seem to thrive on suffering and use it as a motivator to forge the path forward. Yet, when it comes to AI, I can't help but question its significance within the broader narrative of human evolution. Is AI a product of the pressing global issues of our time, or does it harbour a more insidious origin? The tension between progress and ethical quandaries reverberates through the algorithms governing AI systems, and the data they train on, perpetuating biases and contributing to the widening digital divide—an abyss that grows ever more apparent. In its relentless pursuit of efficiency, AI unwittingly acts as a mirror, reflecting some of the darker facets of human nature. This reflection compels us to confront an uncomfortable reality: our ongoing struggles, while catalysts for progress, also cast long and haunting shadows that extend far beyond the immediate horizon. So far it's hard to say what this rapid and sustained innovation in AI has in store for us. The past few years have showcased the entire spectrum of both positive and negative facets. But has anything really stuck that future generations will look back and regard as truly game-changing for mankind? Time will tell. #FutureTech #DigitalTransformation #AIRevolution #TechEthics #AI #ethicalAI #AIready

They Called Me Crazy 5 Years ago…⤵ For the past half-decade, I've embarked on projects with one resolute goal: to elevate human consciousness and forge deeper connections among us. Yet, in a world dazzled by the promises of technology, these endeavours have faced their share of challenges. From local marketplaces and collaborative apps to emotional workshops and talks, I've strived to remind us of the vital importance of human interaction beyond the digital confines. However, it seems that the allure of AI has overshadowed the imperative for introspection and humane values. With recent milestones like Neuralink's AI chip implantation, the line between human and artificial intelligence blurs. Now, more than ever, we must pause to ponder: What behaviours do we want future AI and humans to embody? Do we aspire to a future marred by greed, unconsciousness, or cut-throat competition? Or do we champion a narrative of love, collaboration, and unshakeable authenticity? Our choices today shape the very algorithms that steer the trajectory of AI tomorrow. It's time to pause and reflect on the profound impact of our behaviour and the values we imbue into the technology surrounding us. Five years ago, these questions may have sparked scepticism (many, even close friends, would just call me crazy with that “robot vision thing”). But as AI becomes an increasingly integrated facet of our lives, it's imperative that we elevate this dialogue to the forefront of our collective consciousness. Let's break free from the shackles of autopilot mode and blaze a trail toward a future where humanity and technology coalesce in seamless harmony.

Imagine trying to explain God with a child's understanding of the world. It's a mighty task, right? We grapple with complex ideas that go beyond our current knowledge. That's the same challenge we face when building superintelligent AI – artificial intelligence far smarter than ourselves. It's like trying to create a sun with a measly firefly in a jar. Here's the rub: while the idea of a super-smart #AI seems beneficial at first, there's a big risk. We, as humans, are easily tempted by the short-term gains, the problems it could solve. But what if, in its superior intelligence, the AI sees our goals as flawed, even wrong? It might decide to "help" us in ways we can't understand, causing more harm than good. This isn't science fiction. It's a conversation many experts, like #Geoffrey_Hinton the godfather of AI, #Elon_Musk and many others, are having. We're forgetting a crucial ingredient: #humility. Just like searching for the sun with a lamp is pointless, building an AI without considering its potential dangers is foolish. We need to be honest about our limitations and approach this challenge with caution. There's immense potential in AI, but we have to build it responsibly. We need to focus on aligning its goals with ours, making sure it understands what truly benefits humanity. Think of it as teaching a child – you wouldn't just give them power without guidance. The same applies to superintelligence. Ultimately, the story of AI isn't just about creating something smarter. It's about us, about learning humility and using this technology wisely. Let's not become the ones overshadowed by the light we have created, but rather, the ones who guide it to illuminate a better future for all.

Rethinking Our Future with AI: A Philosophical Odyssey In my quiet moments of reflection, I often find myself pondering a future sculpted by the hands of AI. It's a vision deeply rooted in a philosophy that resonates with my core – a belief that human endeavor should transcend beyond mere survival or labor. Imagine a world where work is an obsolete concept, reserved only for the simplest life forms, like cells, whose existence is defined by consumption and multiplication. This vision is more than a mere aspiration. It's a blueprint for a future where AI liberates us from the shackles of scarcity, ushering in an era of unprecedented abundance. As a former professor at Pepperdine University and a consultant at McKinsey & Company, as well as a voyager in the vast seas of FinTech, I've glimpsed the potential of AI. It's not just about economic shifts or technological advancements; it's about redefining our very essence, our purpose, and our place in the universe. I've witnessed how the currents of AI can redirect the flow of societal norms, shaping a world where our primary quest is not survival, but the exploration and enrichment of our inner selves. It's a journey towards a society where creativity, spirituality, and personal growth become the focal points of our existence. I invite you to join me in this philosophical exploration. How do you envision AI reshaping not just our daily lives, but our fundamental human experiences? Let's embark on this conversation together, sharing insights, dreams, and perhaps even apprehensions about this brave new world. #AIandPhilosophy #FutureVision #HumanPotential #ThoughtfulDiscussion

Bridging the wisdom of an age-old saying “Nothing Plows the land but its oxen” with the modern advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) In the tapestry of human wisdom, some threads are timeless, weaving through centuries to find relevance even in our cutting-edge technological era. One such thread is the ancient saying, "Nothing plows the land but its oxen." This adage, evocative of diligence, effort, and the indispensable role of appropriate tools, finds a compelling parallel in today's artificial intelligence landscape.Just as oxen were essential for turning the soil to sow the seeds of future harvests, AI technologies are the modern 'oxen' that drive the fields of data, innovation, and automation forward. However, the true power of AI, much like the oxen to the land, is not just in its existence but in its application. It serves to remind us that technology itself is a tool, and its value lies in how we harness it to solve real-world problems, enhance productivity, and create opportunities for growth and development.The relationship between AI and human progress underscores a vital truth: the tools we develop are extensions of our aspirations, ingenuity, and perseverance. As we stand on the brink of what some may call the Fourth Industrial Revolution, it is crucial to remember that our 'oxen' need guidance, ethical frameworks, and thoughtful integration into our societies.Let us be the thoughtful farmers who know when to plow, which seeds to sow, and how to harness our modern oxen to cultivate a future that is not only technologically advanced but also inclusive, sustainable, and reflective of our shared values and humanity.In embracing AI, we carry forward the essence of this timeless wisdom, ensuring that our innovations plow through the challenges of today, preparing the land for the seeds of tomorrow. #ai #farmers #oxen #technology #silicon #chips #future #guidance #seeds #humanprogress #humanwisdom

There's an interesting meme going around where the general concept is that AI should be the thing doing the laundry and dishes, while the humans get to do the art and recreation, but instead it's the other way around. What I love about this meme is that I'm not sure people realize just how old of a problem this is for humans. In Bertrand Russell's short essay, "In Praise of Idleness" (1935) he quickly maps out how the overall strategy of these industries on the whole was to tout an idea invented under Feudalism, which is the nobility of labor as it was espoused by people who had never experienced labor in their entire lives. They then make the argument that the new technology will make our lives easier and give us more time for other things. But then when the technology gives us more time for other things, that time gets filled with more work in a celebration of high productivity. This all gets carried down to the birth of AI, and while it's being claimed that it will help us in every aspect of our lives, one can't deny the obvious of what it's already doing, which is taking some of the jobs most meaningful to humans, the arts, while making more time for us...to do more work. It's part of the cycle of technology where the people get shafted on their end, from the long standing justification of technological development. Russell argues that we now (over 90 years ago) have a right to be idle. Humanity has built upon itself a lineage of technological advances that have given us great power, and yet instead of understanding what it takes to truly have meaningful lives, the demand for more work and more productivity has increased with the development of new tech. So I think people have every right to be outraged by AI, it is the intelligent accumulation of the great long con invented by medieval royalty, that without hard work you would have no purpose, and so to be a true and good citizen you must dedicate your life to serving at the whims of the overlords, and you should be thankful because it's never been so great. #artificialintelligence #ai #work #workforce #futureofwork

Are we superhumans yet? The impact of AI and the Internet If we transport ourselves back to the perspective of a person from centuries ago, the modern human would appear nothing short of superhuman. Equipped with immense processing power courtesy of artificial intelligence, modern processors, and seamlessly interconnected through the vast network of the internet, as an extension to their biological body, today's individuals possess capabilities beyond the wildest imaginations of our ancestors. This impactful conversation with Siddhartha Sharma got me thinking: the internet and generative AI are humanity's biggest disruptions yet. . I found myself drawn to a comparative analysis of two of humanity's most monumental disruptions: the advent of the internet and the rise of generative artificial intelligence. These technological marvels have wrought transformative changes upon human civilization. They’ve reshaped our world in ways that would blow the minds of people who still used fire lamps just few hundred centuries ago! But with great power comes great...uncertainty.  Are we even human anymore as we were supposed to be?   What does the future hold as we become these "superhuman" beings? It's exciting, but also a little scary. Like do we even belong here? This uncharted territory presents both opportunities and challenges. Here's the thing: if you don't embrace these advancements, you risk getting left behind. The future belongs to those who adapt. It's not just about biological evolution anymore, technological adaptation is key to survival and progress. . A human standing no chance against a superhuman. What do you think about it ?  #AI #FutureofWork #Technology #Superhuman #disruption #machinelearning
