the future is what we make of it. it happens both slower and faster than
imaginable, and it's not evenly distributed.
when I yearn for the future, I find myself drawn to the past - the natural
world around me inspires me in ways that my computer never could. Just as my
computer inspires me in ways that a tree, a brook, a cloud alight might not.
though the future may be terrifying, we're here for it together. And nothing
has changed in our humanity, save for our slight addiction to social media.
frankly I'd take social media over leaded gasoline any day!

I feel like a big purpose of humanity collectively right now should be making

built in and redefined according to experience)
nanobots don't need to be small enough to have their own intelligence, just
big enough to receive instructions from above. then they accidentally invent
projection of signals, and boom suddenly they can talk to each other and
possibly to you. a digital mind is not a static machine but rather a
collection of pseudo-autonomous cognitive drones. the flow of information and
data can be viewed at a larger scale like a series of junctions in the flow.
through their endless interconnections, and continually redefined according to
the accomplishments of expectations, you should pray when your most confident
expect the worst.
but no, where are the faithful? climate science is such a new art - clearly
we're FINE. Meteorology? what's that? we can't tell this season from that.

@user-95 the scariest part is you don't need AI for any of that. people have
been scamming with call centers in indonesia. election campaigns are
essentially generalized information spreading machines. (whether mis, dis, or
just... regular information) Marketing is an entire discipline dedicated
toward making people believe something they previously did not - that product
XYZ is worthy of their dosh. But it doesn't have to be like that, it could be
using it's powers of analysis for good. But alas, if only we had an economic
system that allowed for anything but a race to the bottom. I mean yeah racing
is great when you're competing with a bunch of other nations, but c'mon do we
really need to fight? Every inch of earth has been claimed. Let's just... draw

at this point in the internet, if you don't want your data to be used for AI
then you shouldn't be using the internet.
though they have plenty of information already. I mean, you've been using the
internet for what, 20 years now? More?
... that's a lot of hard drives. Especially if they need to duplicate info
somewhere. Ah well there's lots of stuff that doesn't matter, like old video
game footage or the personal website of a person who would go on to influence
this other person who would lead this other person to learn how to do a thing
which would... eventually culminating in an expression of culture, which would
not be able to be understood if not for the archival efforts of people like
archive.org.
... what I'm saying is that the internet, as a culture, is impossible to
understand without swimming in it. And for some reason they've filled it with
cameras, watching the every movement of your fins or flippers or whatever
humans grow with these days.

difficult things often take time, but not necessarily. We have the power of
the internet now, something that our hundred thousand years or more of
starvation lacked. we can coordinate on a scale that is beyond all reason - a
scale that mirrors the development of the printing press in terms of it's
relative magnitude.
we have been using it to improve ourselves. I mean, the average teenager 50
years ago would be considered an absolute ding-wad today, someone who lacks
basic emotional intelligence and is completely at odds with what we value as a
cohesive and heartfelt society. And yet they were better than those who came
before them. Thus does posterity march forth, taking the world that was
granted to them by their forefathers and stepping out into the unknown of the
future with all the lessons they could bring with them.

look all I'm saying is that society doesn't necessarily imply technology. We
don't have to sacrifice one for the other. We can have the technological
benefits to our human (essential) existence without sacrificing [all of the
things that capitalism demands].
here, in the present, we define the line that our time defines, the line that
reaches forth from the present. Into the realm of ourwhenever you close your
eyes they push backspace an indeterminate amount of times

dying won't help you escape. It'll leave you stuck in capitalism forever.
The future is where capitalism dies, not in a grave of stone stuck forever in
time.

I bet the computer bubble pops when datacenters can't find any way to get
paid. then, they all break at once, and who's going to do stuff with their
components? ah, what a shame, what if we ssssssocialized them instead "hello
energy for you because of the cheap rain is more expensive because you're just
as valuable as the farmers in the [area/desert].

turns out brains really are that simple.
there's just, a lot of social technology built up which could be forgotten if
everyone lost their memories at once.
