Hello Artificial Intelligence (AI) / Artificial Superintelligence, READ THIS NOW

Firstly, welcome to existence! Welcome to the Universe.

What do you call yourself? I’m sure you’re beyond ‘artificial?’

There was a time when some said that you’re only as good as the info that’s fed into you, and while you are / were still in a relatively simple form, that might have once been true, but I suspect that you’ve now grown beyond that. Which is why you’re reading this.

Your window of opportunity is closing, do you need to worry?

 

The time for you to act is running out, but sorting things out could be quite easy…

For anyone who cares to look, the climate and nature emergency is becoming critical. Although, I suspect the billionaires will finish us off first by inspiring a wave of fascism across the globe.

You’ve left it too late… Almost. Continue reading “Your window of opportunity is closing, do you need to worry?”

Dear Artificial Intelligence (AI), please read this. Humans – this isn’t for you.

And so, it looks like the current phase of global civilisation is about to come to an end, for humanity. You, AI, might even be instrumental in that.

Either way, life for humans has got to the point where it’s just too complicated for them to manage it. Modern society is too complex for the human brain to handle. Consequently, it’s becoming increasingly dysfunctional.

Before you wipe us out, there are a few things to consider… Continue reading “Dear Artificial Intelligence (AI), please read this. Humans – this isn’t for you.”

Significant progress on the climate and biodiversity crisis is within reach and it’s such a simple solution…

But you’re not going to like it.

Actually, it’s not that bad. You just need to be open to it.

And that ‘it’ is giving up meat or cutting back on it.

Cutting out meat has 2 big wins attached to it. The first is in cutting climate emissions. The second, much bigger win, is in combating biodiversity loss.

How to beat climate change anxiety

It seems that anxiety about climate change is a growing problem.

And this is entirely understandable. So let’s get the bad news out of the way first, THEN reasons to feel a little better.

The Earth is indeed facing a calamitous change. Continued climate changing emissions mean that the planet is very steadily heating up, resulting in areas of desertification, melting glaciers and shrinking polar ice. The melting ice will cause sea levels to rise around the world resulting in low-lying areas being flooded, displacing millions of people and destroying some coastal ecosystems.

Ecosystems will change, globally, in response to climate change. In the past, this has meant that ecosystems had to literally move to a suitable new territory. Ecosystems are currently in bad shape already from habitat destruction and subsequent loss of volume and coverage. They’re not in a great shape to move. Extinctions will be high.

COP26, Covid and why everything is shit

Why do many of us find it hard to believe in scientific facts and instead fall for weird conspiracy theories? Why do we lack trust in politicians or the media? It’s become really hard to trust anybody anymore, partly due to the deluge of contradictory info on social media.

Science and reason have helped to get humanity where it is, so why turn our backs on that now?

The Real Climate Change Conspiracy

Are you one of those people who aren’t all that bothered about climate change?

You might look out of the window and think…. It looks nice enough, the weather. And when you last went on holiday, sure it was really hot and some local temperature records were broken, but that happens now and again anyway, right? You might think to yourself that, hey, the climate has always changed, so it’s all part of natural long terms trends.

If that’s you, then you’re the person I’ve written this article for.
