I think somewhere in his last interview with Dark Journalist, Dr J Farrell had this remark that it looks like Mr Global acts like following a machine. Here are some dots about this theme that I found interesting:
-
In the mentionned interview, he also talked about people having no music. I don’t remember the context, but it reminds me the Ummit ET narrative where supposedly scandinavian looking aliens are coming to Earth helping us with tetralogic and technology 400 years in advance. The Ummit story looks very much like yet another Saucer-Swastika-PsyOp as they are also supposed to have a super Quantum Computer deciding destiny of people at very young age, but … having no music nor visual art. The sometimes rather fanciful if not fantasist French physicist and cosmologist Jean-Pierre Petit promots and seems to believe this Ummit narrative with the main argument that they gave him advanced hints on science…

I haven’t look into details, but from what I have been told, the French Macron goverment implemented a computer algorithm that apparently decides the choices for the university for students (“Parcours Sup”). There is also the remark of former French deputy Frédérique Dumas who was in Macron’s “political movement” and said that she had the impression, he reacted like an algorithm or “matrix”, unable to really comprehend any information and lacking basic sense of empathy; that leads us to one aspect of my question: are we governed by sociopathic people void of compassion? [edit: and is it this that makes their decisions seem robotic ?]

But there is also the work of the German philosopher Günter Anders who in 1956, developped in his ground breaking essay “Outdatedness of Human Beings” (subtitlte “On soul in the Era of the Second Industrial Revolution”) the idea of “Promethean Shame”, the fact that we feel weak and creepy in front of the perfection of the machines. There already he talks about a “Matrix” that we follow in our behaviors…
-
Isn’t it also a frequent problematic in SF? (I think of HAL but haven’t investigated this issue a lot until now, I must admit).
-
And maybe you could include to that picture some of Gigi Youngs ideas, as expressed in her last interview with DJ? For instance, believing in “Might is Right” searching for the “soul” in the DNA?
-
I have also heard about scientific research and AI algorithm to predict history. Maybe someone knows some nice or interesting references?
So do you think everything can be predicted or is Human History more like an eternal adventure and Openness? What’s your opinion on these matters?
