The bright side – rather than the dark – the benefits of technology in the decades to come – maybe a fountain of youth with a high quality of life!
The movie “The End of Humanity is due to debut in France on Saturday. From the looks of the trailer, it will paint a future that is dark and foreboding.
The bombing of Israel by Iran represents a sea change in modern warfare – from the high altitude bombing of civilian populations in cities that started in earnest in World War 2 – where those killing hundreds of thousands did not see the fire storms and the mutilation of men, women and children – to the “attack of the drones” – where now it’s not so much how big is your army – but how many drones have you got and how cheap are they?
Of course, the “final solution” for humanity remains in place, with many countries able to start MAD (mutually assured destruction) with nuclear missiles.
One could argue that we are entering into the age of robotic war. Developments in technology mean that we are a heartbeat away from “robot wars” along the lies of “Attack of the Clones”.
Well, “que sera, sera” on the military aspects – but there is a flip side. Much of the technology in use in our daily lives was developed in the military. Indeed, times of war spawned a rush for technological advantage that lasts well beyond the megalomanias seeking to take over the world – using devices like the WHO, the United Nations and political parties lie the Democratic Party and many other Governments like Canada’s as “cover” for their despotic ambitions of global dominance.
. The world is, slowly but surely, waking up to the machinations of those who consider themselves the only people who can humanity and the planet from a “human infestation”. Firstly, of course, there is no human infestation, just an infestation of psychopaths pulling strings they found lying around – that they picked up an turned to their advantage, The mechanisms to make these psychopaths from those strings exist – it just needs an acknowledgement that “taxes are theft” and should be minimized, big governments require huge taxes and borrowing, and we must repay the debt incurred over decades to relieve our children of the burden of taxes and (interest on) the debt that arose from pork barrel politics and living beyond the means promised to buy votes by politicians..
Those core “values” need to run for the several decades it took to put us in the “debt Armageddon” we are facing. If we don’t start down this path a.s.a.p., we will face a depression that will make the 1930’s look like a picnic on a riverbank in sunshine!
A year ago, I posted this article:
It touched on a few of the advances made and in progress.
Here’s links to a few projects not mentioned that are likely spawning more advances in technology.
The EU Human Brain Project that finished a few months ago after running for ten years (for a billion dollars?).
“The Human Brain Project was a European Future and Emerging Technologies (FET) Flagship project that ran from 2013 to 2023. It pioneered a new paradigm in brain research, at the interface of computing and technology.”
You can view a 15-page brochure on its achievements here:
hbp_pioneering_digital_neuroscience.pdf (exo.io)
Looks like it is attempting to map every neuron in the brain in order to fabricate a human brain.
And here’s the US equivalent, the Brain Initiative announced with hundreds of millions of dollars of taxpayer funding inn the same year as the EU project in 2013, by Obama.
The BRAIN Initiative | The White House (archives.gov)
Looks like it stopped being reported on when Trump assumed office in 2016 – lots of dollars lining the pockets of some with nothing to show for it? Here is a 2016 Fact Sheet:
Microsoft Word - BRAIN Initiative FY16 Fact Sheet OSTP (archives.gov)
“The President’s 2016 Budget proposes to increase the Federal investment in The BRAIN Initiative from
about $200 million in FY 2015 to more than $300 million in FY 2016. Proposed investments by the NIH, DARPA, IARPA, FDA and NSF are described below. National Institutes of Health (NIH): In FY 2016, NIH will provide an estimated $135 million in funding for The BRAIN Initiative. This investment will support a diverse set of projects with ambitious goals, including developing new devices to record and modulate activity in the human nervous system, revolutionizing human neuroimaging technologies to understand how individual cells and complex neural circuits interact in time and space, and modeling and analyzing the complex data that scientists obtain in their quest to understand how the brain works.”
Lots of the usual suspects climbing on board the gravy train of free money to play with toys.
Again, it looks like the objective is to gather all knowledge – ever discovered or invented – and update a “synthetic brain” with information on all life as it happens, forever– via the internet of things.
Consider the flaw in the plan – the “synthetic brain” invents nothing (yet) it stands on the shoulders of giants but cannot (yet) produce anything new – merely access to the past and present – not the future (yet).
So, what’s my point?
Well, regular readers will recall my ideas of building mega cities in deserts, powered (cooled and heated) and fed primarily by methane which uses the “exhaust fumes” of CO2 and water as the base for self-sufficiency.
Picture 1.000 vertical cities of 5 million people in the world’s deserts under weatherproof domes with thousands of proximate plant and animal bubbles around the cities with multiple storeys of fields for cropping and grazing. Combine that with the recycling of human, animal and food waste as a bonus! Seems to make far more sense to me than terra-forming Mars!
It doesn’t resolve the problem of the real risk to all life as we know it – nano-plastics, but hey, it could be a far cleaner solution for the ever=growing human population beyond 8 billion people!
Ok, now I have re=established my credentials as a dreamer – what is all this stuff about “the fountain of youth”.
Well,
Always Look On The Bright Side of Life - Life Of Brian (Monty Python) Lyrics (youtube.com)
The anti-human movement exemplified by the likes of Harare (an adjunct sycophantic appendage of the WEF and the Cult of Moloch, seeks to deny all human emotions other than “fear”.
Here is one representation of emotions taken from Wiki
·
“Anger, opposite calmness (not feeling excited)
· Friendship, is where people have a bond of joy and will come together and have fun
· Fear, opposite courage (having courage in the face of fear)
· Shame, opposite confidence (shame: how one feels about one's past bad actions or thoughts; shamelessness: one does not feel shame, but others think one should)
· Kindness (benevolence), opposite cruelty (kindness: when people are good to other people)
· Pity (when people feel sorry for other people)
· Indignation (feeling angry because something is not fair, such as undeserved bad fortune)
· Envy, jealousy (pain when people have something that one wishes for oneself)
· Love, a strong emotion of attachment one feels for someone else. Ranges to family, pets, friends, significant others or fictional characters
People get angry for a bunch of reasons – from being hungry, to being falsely accused and so on – each of the emotions is tied to circumstances over which we seek to regain or gain control of outcomes. Same goes for the other emotions that make us human.
There are many other ways to represent possible emotions. Again, there is no link between them or how the interaction of each makes us “human”. We respond by the interaction of these emotions on our circumstances.
So how can technology improve our circumstances ad give us more fulfilling and positive emotions by improving the quality of our lives?
Let’s start with the “fountain of youth”.
From a decade ago:
Blood from young mice shown to reverse aging | Harvard Medical School
“In a trio of studies published Sunday, scientists reported that they reversed aging in the muscles and brains of old mice — simply by running the blood of young mice through their veins.”
Well, leave aside the Bram Stoker visions, that paper was a decade ago. I suspect that the value of unvaxxed blood might be set for another price hike! (Swats away the draining of the blood of aborted foetuses). We can keep an eye on “advances” since then plus the “Trending News”.
. How about this from a few years ago:
“3D printing technology has emerged as a key driver behind an ongoing paradigm shift in the production process of various industrial domains. The integration of 3D printing into tissue engineering, by utilizing life cells which are encapsulated in specific natural or synthetic biomaterials (e.g., hydrogels) as bioinks, is paving the way toward devising many innovating solutions for key biomedical and healthcare challenges and heralds' new frontiers in medicine, pharmaceutical, and food industries.
Here, we present a synthesis of the available 3D bioprinting technology from what is found and what has been achieved in various applications and discussed the capabilities and limitations encountered in this technology.”
I have not looked at developments in stem cell research – it seems that they are the cell types that regenerate or generate other issues – as do cancer cells.
So that is just two ways do reverse or pause the aging process.
Moving on, how about repairing skin – from burn wounds for example or to cover prosthetic (robotic) limbs?
External synthetic skin needs to have a bunch of characteristics. From here 15 years ago:
Biologic and synthetic skin substitutes: An overview - PMC (nih.gov)
· Able to resist infection
· Able to prevent water loss
· Able to withstand the shear forces
· Cost effective
· Widely available
· Long shelf life and easy to store
· Lack of antigenicity
· Flexible in thickness
· Durable with long-term wound stability
· Can be conformed to irregular wound surfaces and
· Easy to be secured and applied
Science advances at a rapid speed – maybe the military has developed this further into body armour od skin for war robots) , but it seems to me that, once (fingers crossed, soon) our best and brightest have figured out how to disinfect the body from the spike protein, maybe this EXTERNAL treatment will have an INTERNAL equivalent for the wounds caused in vital organs and blood vessels/arteries caused by the spike protein and the adulterations/contaminants in the toxic C19 mRNA injections .
From here last year:
“Here, we introduce a fully-implantable wireless powered tactile sensory system embedded artificial skin (WTSA), with stable operation, to restore permanently damaged tactile function and promote wound healing for regenerating severely damaged skin. The fabricated WTSA facilitates (i) replacement of severely damaged tactile sensory with broad biocompatibility, (ii) promoting of skin wound healing and regeneration through collagen and fibrin-based artificial skin (CFAS), and (iii) minimization of foreign body reaction via hydrogel coating on neural interface electrodes.”
Here’s more on the topic from a few months ago:
Engineered artificial skins: Current construction strategies and applications - ScienceDirect
· Give a detailed introduction of the cellular components, scaffold materials and bio-fabrication techniques involved in the construction of artificial skin.
· Highlight the application for chronic wound repair developments.
· Present objective views on the remaining challenges and future trends of artificial skin.
Which brings us back to robotics – or nanobots – that can be used to “cleanse” the body of spike proteins and cancers.
Expose-news.com is out with an article today here:
“The 248 page patent for the Moderna technology that was administered to people in the COVID shots was filed in 2020. The patent lists several embodiments, or variations, of this technology. And while we don’t know who got what embodiment, we know that several different batch numbers were deployed. And some were far more deadly than others.”
That is the dark side.
But what about the bright side? From here in 2017:
These tiny robots can kill cancer cells | World Economic Forum (weforum.org)
“Nanobots have the potential to kill cancer cells. Researchers at Durham University in the UK have used nanobots to drill into cancer cells, killing them in just 60 seconds1.
The nanobots targeted a protein called nucleolin, which is found only on the surface of cancer cells. After attachment to the cancer cell, the nanobots release thrombin into the cell. This cuts off the blood supply to the cancer cells, thus destroying the tumor>”
I wonder how much research is going on right now to do something similar for the spike protein.
I won’t revisit CRISPR technology (or the UK government’s approval of multiple parents using three or more people’s DNA to create a baby with edited characteristics) – or anything further on organoids using 3D printing, but here’s one more bright side to harnessing the internet of things.
First a few articles on projecting the human nervous system outwards to link with the “cloud”.
Then there is this:
Surgical technique improves sensation, control of prosthetic limb | Robotics @ MIT
“Researchers at the Center for Extreme Bionics at the MIT Media Lab have invented a new neural interface and communication paradigm that is able to send movement commands from the central nervous system to a robotic prosthesis, and relay proprioceptive feedback describing movement of the joint back to the central nervous system in return.”
And this from here:
“Advances in our understanding of brain function, along with the development of neural interfaces that allow for the monitoring and activation of neurons, have paved the way for brain-machine interfaces (BMIs), which harness neural signals to reanimate the limbs via electrical activation of the muscles or to control extracorporeal devices, thereby bypassing the muscles and senses altogether.”
And this from here:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8388605/
“… we advocate for new holistic approaches in which human motor control and intelligent prosthesis control function as one system (defined as human-prosthesis symbiosis). We hope engineers and clinicians will work closely to achieve this symbiosis, thereby improving the functionality and acceptance of robotic prostheses and users’ quality of life.”
The interface of robotics and the brain …
Ok, that’s enough for now. If you are still reading, try not to imagine armies of super bots of all shapes and sizes fighting it out for scarce resources – watched by a cowering crowd of humans and instead imagine being in control of your own robot I a spaceship exploring the universe – or even standing on the surface of Sun or floating in Jupiter’s atmosphere armoured by a super skin – and even beyond our solar system!
Onwards!!!
