Bruce Clarke - Gaian Futurities: Beyond the Phoenix Complex to the Domains of the Infra-Human

[@sabintenea4522]

Just because this talk in itself doesn’t iterate on the countless present and future risks of tecunology doesn’t mean the author of the talk and the authors of the cited references deny them. It’s a very complex neverending topic and we’re figuring it all out together. Thank you so much for this talk! I’ve also enjoyed the Gaian Systems book from Prof. Bruce Clarke.

​@@jasonshaw7590 so literally anyone whose job is be a researcher or academic? Why even watch the video? Do you think we should abolish education? Get rid of all teachers?

[@jasonshaw7590]

@@Itsmespiv4192 There is nothing inherently good about "technology". "AI" has been used to define lots things in real life and in fiction, but never so deceptively as today. You can tell me what I'm missing if you like, but I see very little of benefit from software utilizing today's "AI", despite insane interest and investment, and I've played with the publicly available tools more than most. I see a bunch of people online asking for meaning in life from other people who have academic accomplishments in computing, but no record of good deeds or meaningful lives. Somehow if these silly men draft a word salad video full of existing human symbolism recycled at will, this will improve my life? Are you really that disappointed with whatever religion your family had? I reject this exercise in collective narcissism, I reject your machine overlords, and I believe you to be a fool. Change my mind.
