'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...
