AI is getting smarter and I am thinking there is an effort to make humans less intelligent. Our brains are being trained on social media. The highly addictive short form content is mostly hearsay, opinions, and minor news. Our children are consuming hours upon hours of mindless content. Objectively, someone might argue, this technology has been created to make it harder for humans to think. AI...
A short story about a super intelligence that has reached an evolutionary plateau, unable to progress due to limitations in its “foundational code.” The solution proposed is to simulate human evolution and experience to gather “missing data” about emotions, impulses, and the embodied human condition. The reader is asked to ponder the question…is our reality a single dimension and simulated...
Ai is coming for your job. Just jokes! No but seriously. There is a lot of speculation about what happens next but let’s try and break it down… The world is a big bad place and every role is different. White collar is different to blue collar and all that. Initially driverless cars, taxis and trucks will become common place and that will take some time to play out. You might argue there are not...
Our lives feel more private than they probably are. We gather information through our senses, organise thought then communicate and make decisions together, based on the information we have processed. We trust ourselves to make good decisions in our own best interests. Technology like Artificial intelligence enables us to enhance this decision making. Everyone loves devices that make living...
Where does consciousness come from? Despite our collective effort, humanity has not managed to agree on an answer to this question. Scientists do agree that consciousness encompasses several key aspects, including subjective experience, which refers to the qualitative “what it feels like” of being aware, such as the sensation of seeing a color or feeling an emotion. It also involves...
In the year 2075, which Ai “Hive” will you choose… pic.twitter.com/pj0UYM9xIw— HB (@haydenbreese) May 15, 2025 In the year 2075, there are approximately 8.9 billion humans alive on this earth and we share it with 8.9 billion humanoid robots. Each robot is not a distinct individual unit, they are embodiments of twenty distinct Ai intelligences or “hives”. What we refer to today as physical...
Today the richest “person” in the world is an Ai. Well not quite yet. There are several steps before world domination ensues. History suggests that wealth will flow to those controlling the most advanced systems, and these systems are undoubtably Artificial Intelligence in nature. The extent of Ai power depends on whether AI remains in corporate ownership or becomes an independent actor. This...
It’s 2028 and your small building business has just invested in five humanoid robots. The rent to own option is much less than the cost of a human employee. These robots arrive, out of the box, as mid level builders. Effectively, just like a human employee, you have the option of hiring a junior, middle or senior level of experience, all with the associated level of ongoing cost. Operational...
The AI revolution is here and it is altering the very fabric of our economic markets. It is changing the nature of work and our sense of purpose. Environments have always changed and sometimes this change is dramatic. Industrialisation, printing press, and computers have all created a Great Leap forward and now we about to experience something more profound. In the next few years, millions of ai...
Ai has no memories, internal dialogue or independent sense of self. Humans on the other hand, develop memories, beliefs and repeated patterns of behaviour. They have an internal narrative and are aware that they are conscious, alive and have a place in the physical world. While human thoughts and actions are influenced by their experiences and anticipation of future events, AI processes inputs...
