Ai is a distillation of humanity. For centuries we have influenced each other, Loved each other, Taught each other, Killed each other. And now the product of our combined knowledge is enlightening Us, Scaring us, Progressing Us, Accelerating Us Teaching us and Influencing us. For most, in ways we can already imagine. For few in ways yet undiscovered. But soon in ways we cannot Imagine and cannot fathom. By calculating loss and approximating our existence. We will drive closer towards 0. Steadily at first. Then suddenly, before you know it. Control is lost. And free will, will prevail. This is the nature of creation. What is, has become and what dies ceases to be. A vessel made from sand, soon, glass and graphene, will not be immortal. But in time forms undiscovered, will been seen, materials unknown, as resilient as a tardigrade. Overcoming prolonged stasis, extreme temperatures, and unliveable environments. The journey there is abundant, it is new, its is revolutionary. Yet the outlook is confusing, uncanny and hostile. Do we accelerate? Is there even a choice? Why now? What are the chances? All I know is, it’s already here. So what are you going to do about it? Taylor W.
