'we are the Gods now'




'We are the Gods now' from AwareCitizen on Vimeo.
Main info from: www.theageoftransitions.com
on this site https://vimeo.com/56371775 you can find full clip (unfortunately, after almost a half of the year, youtube for "whatever reasons decided" to block second part of the clip. Actually, despite the fact that it is not easy for me, when trying to explain topics like this and when I am using just the cuttings from movies and documentaries, that motivates and encourages me to find other solutions on sharing my insights. And personally, I do not have intention to be famous, but just want that vid like this will help somehow for people to pay attention of what I'm noticing from time to time, and if people are going to watch some of my clips then this will be a signal for me, that my insight resonates with the public (meaning - the public has understood my cry in the wilderness :D)

Now let's take a look/read about this particular clip/ Well, I don't even know how to begin actually.
First of all I would like to say about this long and for most people nowadays - very boring video, which has been edited by me, AwareCitizen, of course :)
This clip begins with the talk by Peter Weyland at 'TED2023: I will change the world'. So right here is showing a projection of a possibility of what could happen in the very near future. He started to talk about God Prometheus from Greek mythology. According to mythology, He has actually created mankind (not Zeus) and has steeled  (in Wayland's words) 'a first true piece of technology - fire' and for this reason he was punished to suffer for ages.
Personally for me this talk was very inspiring , because he has been talking about how our development of technologies has been growing and in this talk has made an impression, that our speed of the technologies development on time scale is growing not arithmetical, and even not geometrical progression, but exponentially. After mentioning important technologies he said that after a short few years they will be able to create a robot with A.I. who will look like human and think like human (in other words approximately on that year (2023) they will be able to create a robot who will be equal to human (they will 'brake' singularity point), but that robot could live almost forever. Meaning, that at the length of life aspect this robot will have a superiority against a mortal humankind. And after all that being said Weyland concluded that 'we are the gods now'. I thought that somewhere I heard that and decided to tie this god complex with the developments of robots and AI in reality and in sci-fi movies as well.
I also wanted to reveal how in the movies you can easily see that robots do have human emotions (they are becoming more human in the movies at least, but at the same time you can also see (if you try to search) that robot designers also trying to design them with features, which are similar to humans: even appearance) or robots with consciousness. But here you can easily see a flow from opposite side as well: a man is becoming more robotic in one way or another (take for example Iron man in sci fi movies, or in reality perfect examples could be communism and nazi movement, both sides have been trying to create a new man in their new world order(!) Sounds a bit familiar?).
At that time when appeared transformers, then Iron man appeared on the movie theaters as well. Please, take a look at the dates: Transformers series have been released in: 2007, 2009 and 2011; Iron man: 2008, 2010. Personally I can see a lot of similarities in the robotic side (for instance, it is interesting to look how 'Iron man' puts on his 'iron costume'. Namely here is one of the most similarities with transformers.
In the movie transformers Optimus Prime also says that human race and transformers are very similar species (actually he said so to times: in first and second part of the movie trilogy). So here is the key what I'm talking about (if you know what i mean :D)
In Babylon A.D. a very intelligent (superior) robot girl said also interesting thing. Its sound something like that: if god created us, that means that we also are creators (in other words we are also gods). In the movie A.I. you can see also similar things.
So I tied these movies together in order to get a philosophical direction of what kind of intention do we have when we are trying (so hard!) to create robots with A.I. And as I understood, I think that the conclusion is similar to what Peter Weyland has said. When we will make the robots, who will be equal to humans - then we (actually creators of these machines, not we :)) will be gods. In other words I really saw very strong intention for humans (and it even doesn't matter if it was a sci-fi movie or real documentary) to become gods.
In documentary we can see that scientists are saying (So here is real scientists and please, forget here about scifi movies), that the universe doesn't need a creator, maybe just very clever designer in order to get patterns with very simple rules, and those patterns will be able to evolve themselves as simulation of evolution in computer programs, where even scientists themselves admit that they do not understand how (and why) that can be (they don't understand how this simulation of evolution works actually themselves).
In other words, we can become gods by a mistake :) and that mistake can be fixed when superior robots (meaning: with higher A.I. then our capability of intelligence) and 'will eliminate us' (and this was the quote from scientist). But for our happiness some scientist do have explanation event to this line of thinking. They say that this scenario is very possible, but that's not bad, because robots will be more intelligent comparing to us, and they will remember us, which is not bad at all.
At the end of this extended clip I decided to add Network 1976 talk about dehumanization of the humankind and researcher of university who said that you (pure man) won't change that and basically just go with a flow. It's sad but that is true (in my pure personal opinion). But on the other hand I cannot make it up with this issue and wanted to show as much as I could to others where this philosophy leads us. I wanted to share that and somehow to contribute to others who disagree and just wonder about it, although I don't believe that this will change something...

not to hear, not to see


Hello to everyone!
In this particular clip I wanted to show you fragments from Another Earth which is brilliant to me because step by step you can make interpretation of this movie to even a book (in my native language of course which is not English) :) I guess.
In this particular fragment I wanted to show you an old man, who tired to see and hear. If you watch that more carefully, you won’t see just crazy old man and immediately forget him after the movie. This is a bit more than just that and personally for me it is all democratic Western World, which you can clearly (if you want of course) see corruption which is exposing just even on the top and knowing that you cannot do anything about it in order to change it into better way. When you see day by day a potential terrorist frets and absurd actions of that in order to prevent people from these actions. When you are loosing your job but you couldn’t because you have been taken a huge amounts of money from the bank earlier. When you see a technological society which is prepared for any new technological device, when people are chatting more in facebook or skype, then in a real world (which maybe not always is a bad thing), when you see TV news or reports, telling you how bad it is, when you watch your favorite sport team, or get drunk in a pub and you don’t care, then some people, who seeing these things and much more – they are deciding to leave their native speech country and are establishing in other countries just for not to hear and not to see these daily negative bombardment which is affecting society very much.
For instance, how can you tell other way, when you see in newspapers or in websites or in TV news couple of the same scandal for 2.5 year or 5 years especially in small country, when everybody is affected by that? What it is? For me it is society management ‘in a proper way’ in the right manner, or culture creation, or destruction or disbelief of almost any organizations just your lynch law? It is so easy to do that, because I see that in my country. It is perfect divide and conquer society tactic. And this particular old man represents those people who are fed up to hear and see this ABSURD. Think about it for awhile.
BTW I’m not telling you at all that democracy is bad or something like that. But some people of post-Soviet countries are missing that just for 2 main reasons: they always had a job and they didn’t heard on TV this negativity. And that of course doesn’t mean that that wasn’t, but for the people at some extent was easier for this reason. I do not want to say that daily news should stop telling the truth or propaganda in some cases, but when the same stuff is exposing for couple years day by day, then it is something else and that is not quite good for a society I guess. That’s all.  
Thank you for your attention. Bye.

Using virtual reality & synthetic telepathy we are ‘progressing’ into humanoids [a beehive society]


I would like to present for you my clip about the things, which are coming into view for real. In this particular video I wanted to show you mainly Sci-Fi (known as “surrogates”) some fragments of Wall-E, popular segment of Network (1976) which I merged at the same time with a google glass – which is magnificent technological capability for us to use in the near future and maybe it will replace telephones as well. I also inserted a discussion with the members from the ‘Glasgow Truth movement’ and Aaron Franz, where they have been talking and wondering about future, which is progressing towards transhumanist agenda almost perfectly.
I do not know what about you, but for me personally this invention (google glass) can make a small step towards a big idea… This is a very important step for me to see if people would like it or not. But according to the vid, which has been uploaded into youtube by google about these glasses, the reaction of the people show to me that they like this device. For me this is very sad. It is hard to explain why but I will try. So in the movie surrogates (this fragment is inserted into my clip) main character was walking in the street, but at that time he was very anxious, because he has been always using a surrogate for that purpose (like others as well). So he saw pure robots in the streets who have been walking in one line and have been “looking into one dot”.
So, like I said before, if this product will be popular (and it seems like that) you will see many people in the streets walking like surrogates and “looking into one dot” and talking with total nonsense, but they all will be very happy about that. Sometimes you will see a man in the middle of the street stopped because at that time he (or she) was looking into the map for instance, or maybe reading “very important information”) In front of his/her own eyes. And if you look from side into that situation, I guess are going to say: “This is mass madness! You are maniacs!” People will look like bees and streets will be like real hives and this is it for you folks – a behavior modification. Fortunately, in the movie surrogates have been terminated and man kind went back into the right track. For us I guess will be just constant progression… Towards squaring the circle.
This small step for people is very important because when this step will be done, then it will be much easier for other companies to promote not external devices, but internal… with much more opportunities. And it seems to me that majority will like this big idea or deal. And when it will (or may (?)) be done, we, as humans, will fall and appears new species – humanoids. And maybe they will look like humans, but in reality humanoids. Unstoppable progress just for you folks J Enjoy!
Now I would like to mention about the structure of clip. So I tried to contain the most important details into 15 min period of time. It may be hard for somebody to hear, because I inserted a good interview about this topic and I also used some sound fragments from surrogates and Wall-E movies, because it explains very much for those who has some intuition and are vigilant. I do not think that it is a good idea to insert just a picture and fragment of interview into the clip, because for people it is very boring. But who are interested to these topics I suggest you to watch ‘The age of transitions’ by Aaron Franz and the ‘End Game’ by Alex Jones. Thank you for your attention Bye.
