A new stage of evolution - Putin?
There is an opinion that "Symbiotes" will be just a new stage of evolution:
Monkey > Human > Symbiotes.
However, this will be a degeneration, not an evolution.
During anthropogenesis, intergeneric natural selection created, among other things, the "divine" qualities of a person - conscience, altruism, mercy, compassion, love. -
People survived - through cooperation, mutual assistance, alliances among themselves.
Now this mechanism will not exist. - It will be replaced by a more efficient, but absolutely soulless AI (Artificial Intelligence).
Yes, the symbiotes will be intellectually superior to man, just as man is superior to the ape now. The symbiotes will manipulate people the way people manipulate pets now. The difference, however, is that people use animals not callously.
But what is the point of such an evolution if the "divine" disappears?
Intelligence by itself has no meaning.
There is meaning in the intellect - only as a means of the divine.
Even without the use of AI, Putin - the main prototype of the symbiote today - is a model of human moral atrophy.
He deliberately lies on camera - without batting an eye - about bacterio- and covid laboratories in Ukraine, on the go changes versions about the murder of passengers on a plane flying to Kuala Lumpur, incites terrorists to blow up a school in Beslan in order to seize power in Russia himself.
He refers to "spiritual values" purely instrumentally. For him, the Russians are the same object of manipulation as the Ukrainians.
Putin is rather the embodiment of "Satan" in a non-religious sense - duplicitous, completely cynical, vile and arrogant.
Satanic selfishness - for a little pleasure of vanity, they are ready to pay thousands of terrible deaths. Moreover, they are perfectly aware of everything, since they are extremely dodgy in the way of obtaining their pleasures.
If today people are needed for those who seek to gain power - as instruments of competition with others in power, then in the next century people will become just a useless hindrance.
People will begin to degrade and die out for quite objective reasons - with the full preservation of liberal democracy.
AI will come up with schemes that modern schemers never dreamed of.
On the contrary, the "New" stage of evolution is based on the animal stage - previous to a rational person. -
On the Stage of struggle for resources and biological rivalry.
Today there is no need for reasonable people to divide among themselves resources. -
At their service are the unlimited possibilities of the Universe and scientific knowledge.
Mutual extermination is unreasonable, especially - today - with its increased possibilities.
Candidates for symbiotes are ugly geeks, misanthropic in the end, relics that are inadequate to the current stage of evolution.
Much more reasonable is happiness, the condition of which is divinity.
There is the possibility of a different evolution - the evolution of all people, not individual symbiotes. Evolution, while maintaining and developing all the "divine" qualities of man.
Genetic medicine is able to provide immortality - all, not just the almighty "gods". It can provide health and youth for everyone.
The resources of the solar system are more than sufficient to satisfy - any material needs of mankind.
No need to worry - what will happen in 3 billion years - you need to survive in the next 300 years.
By the way, the nearest natural threat to the Earth is decarbonization – the lack of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
By the way, 60 thousand years ago, the Earth miraculously avoided turning into a "snowball". In the next glacial maximum, this no longer threatens her - thanks to carbonization.
It's not the climate that we need to worry about now, but the use of AI as a weapon against humans.
Divine Man:
Evolution?:
Is it necessary to fight against "evolution"?
" Symbiote " will be the next stage of evolution?
- They will be like gods - almost infinitely powerful, immortal.
However, there is only one question here - meaning.
- Is omnipotence an end in itself, or is it just a tool?
This is a matter of choice.
The very growth of possibilities, "iron" was only a necessary means, the basis of spirituality.
However, evolution does not repeat itself.
- Today, the human mind is sufficient for its biological self-improvement.
- Hitler was late - by 100,000 years.
Today the problems and tasks are different.
The main question is not whether the Symbiotes will be more powerful, but whether they will be more spiritual .
And this is where there are big doubts.
And precisely because the main factor of their "evolution" was taken from the previous stage - natural selection in new conditions, using a new weapon - AI.
- "They will be selected" - the most crafty, hypocritical, cynical, selfish, vile little sadists. Heirs of modern autocrats. Only worse.
"Progress":
Futurists usually attach importance to technological progress, although it does not matter.
What matters is only progress - moral.
Marxists, however, are right - only technological progress creates the conditions for moral progress.
More precisely, there are actually many conditions - biological, geographical, etc.
However, all these conditions are constant, except for the technological one.
And, human biology is quite "divine" - a person is more prone to sympathy than to sadism - under quite accessible other conditions.
However, technologies can both create conditions for the transformation of a person into a divine being, as well as simply destroy him - if Artificial Intelligence is used as a manipulative weapon against the people themselves.
What could be the future of man and the Earth,
- if you manage to avoid the "End of History" in 400 years?
The Earth will be a planet of happiness - happy not only people, but also animals.
Already today, people are changing their laws, making animal husbandry more humane, the number of vegetarians is growing, the natural environment and biological populations are being restored.
Yes, species are disappearing today faster than at any time in the past 65 million years.
However, the counter movement to preserve and restore the Earth's biosphere is gaining more speed, and a turning point is already noticeable.
A person is quite reasonable not only to create a happy social environment for himself, but also to abandon animal husbandry, replacing it with artificial production of foodstuffs identical to natural ones, and even create such a habitat for higher animals in which suffering, for example, victims of predators, will be minimized.
A person will be responsible for all living things in the same way as today he is responsible for his pets.
Man himself will gain practical immortality.
Serious diseases will not only be eliminated, but people will also improve themselves - biologically.
Chances are 50:50.
Responsible people are engaged only in politics - today, because it is our generation that decides whether to be or not to be.
Cultural selection:
People will take care of the growth of their intelligence themselves - with the help of genetic medicine and manipulations with embryos.
But people don't care about "divine" qualities. Moreover, people usually believe that these qualities only weaken the competitiveness of their children.
Therefore, for the growth of "divine" qualities, it remains to use the old "cultural selection" - to create communities in which people select accomplices - according to these qualities.
Meaning of life:
Many people are looking for the meaning of life.
But here the meaning of life is looking for you.
The chance of saving humanity may be up to you.
We are "lucky" - it is on our generation of thousands of generations that the survival of mankind and the meaning of the Universe depends.
The next generation may not be able to change anything.
Unity of Humanity:
Paradoxically, humanity is as united as ever - precisely when it is most numerous and diverse.
What makes him united is a common threat to his existence - the biggest in his history.
