The Future of AI is Total Neurobehavioural Integration

0

There are many mapping the individual neurons of the human brain, and there are many creating super realistic models of the human face, however Dr. Mark Sagar is a true innovator because he is integrating every modelling factor into one AI interface.

Working from New Zealand’s, Auckland Bioengineering Institute, Associate Professor Mark Sagar has gone as far as to create a baby artificial intelligent computer model that actually learns, and is rewarded by increases of dopamine in the cortico-basal ganglia-thalamo-cortical loop from which the basal ganglia portion of the loop drives the reward system.

By modelling the various interconnected pathways of the neurological system, as well as the interrelation of the facial muscles, and the input system via the eyes, or camera on a computer, Dr. Sagar has effectively created an entity that responds to stimuli, good or bad, and can actually learn from its behaviour. Something that many labs around the world are probably trying to achieve as well, but has not been completed to the level and sophistication of Dr. Sagar and his team.

 

Ray Kurzweil talked about the Singularity, the moment in time when AI supersedes human intelligence as a sentient being, when artificial superintelligence will abruptly trigger runaway technological growth, resulting in unfathomable changes to human civilization.

At the rate we are going now, this seminal moment will occur at a time earlier than thought, and we will have superintelligent entities who will eventually become sentient beings, they will be self-aware and be able to create their own machines, or modifications to technology already created.

In essence, the biological part of all life will be understood completely, as mapping every part of the human brain, every neuron and electrical impulse, will bring completely new understanding to what it means to be human, or a machine.

 

The functional abilities and capabilities to this technology are immeasurable, as their introduction will change every facet of the lives of humans, and could even be utilised to create exact copies of ones mind. If we can now backup the data on our computers today, tomorrow we will be backing up our brains. This event, would effectively reverse death, as our biological bodies deteriorate with time, the backups will live on. Going further into the future, your mind could easily by transplanted into a new body and brain, thus making biological death just a mere hiccup.

Transhumanism is already detailing much of this concept, but it will certainly be a prerequisite that humans absorb the machines and vice versa, because without this coupling, only hardship will follow. Especially when the advanced machine looks down at the inferior intellect of the biological, an arms race that could end badly for humans.

Of course, there will be military applications to all of this technology, and unfortunately there lies great danger in the adoption of sentient machines in the future that have the ability to kill. Already we are seeing autonomous drones flying over our heads constructed by the military, but here lies the distinct possibility that the future AI will not see humans as worthy of life. We would not be deemed as useful, we’re dumb compared to them, and naturally the weaker of any species always meets a sticky end, as the Neanderthals once did too.

The work of Dr. Sagar is truly amazing, and it is rare to see such a complete understanding, all in one package, with true integration into creating a new entity. We must also however look at the moral points regarding the future though, for without that element philosophically speaking, humankind could eventually bear the brunt of their own creation.

Students Cry in Pain As ‘Safe Spaces’ Invaded On Campus

0

“We had to console our students for hours after the terrible incident, which left four students hospitalised in an institution, and one student fighting for her life,” college professor, Eric Cohen, told the LA Times.

Situated close to San Francisco, Berkeley College is known for its support of American socialist values like Marxism, Communism and is staunchly anti-liberty, anti-free speech.

“We at Berkeley college pride ourselves in being upholders of the teachings of Karl Marx, Trotskyism, and the all American communist radicals like Saul Alinsky. Any other point of view is not important to us, because it does not exist to our belief system of indoctrination,” one student revealed prior to the safe space invasive incident.

Safe Space Invasion

The designated safe space which was invaded, was situated just outside the courtyard for Dwinelle Hall, and has since been cordoned off by the police.

According to students who witnessed the invasion, a terrible wind blew autumn leaves from surrounding trees into the safe space even landing on the designated safe zone and some students.

“I saw these autumnal leaves, literally fall on students’ heads as they sat in the safe space. Some leaves even landed on their books and luncheon bags. It was carnage, the invasion caused students to literally run for their lives as the leaves kept coming and coming. One guy tripped up as he ran and hit his head on a rock, another sprained his ankle, and another is now in intensive care as a leaf landed on his sandwich as he chomped down. He choked on it and went blue in the face,” Jonah Chang, a traumatised third year student recalled.

Campus authorities have acted quickly in restoring the safe space by having all trees chopped down throughout the whole Berkeley university campus area.

Students who were affected by the incident have been told not to watch the video below at all costs, or this could cause immeasurable mental anguish to their already damaged constitutions.

The Great British Fake Off

0

When it comes to fake, you just can’t get faker than this banal stale television sadism beating people over the head with fake plastic smiles and even faker bland drooping one-liners that could make your newly ovenised bread loaf sprout legs and dive head first into a winter pond full of ravenous ducks as a last suicidal jump to silence the pain.

For fucks sake, is there not enough crud on the telly that the TV controllers have to regurgitate such quaffing buttered piss swilling crud as the Great British Fake Off.

“Ready, set, fake!”

It’s a fake bake, but one thing that would spice things up a little would be some white phosphorous dropped on the whole set to see the real baking that would occur.

No doubt the presenters are paid vast amounts of shilling for this shit, but what else does the poor TV watcher have left these days apart from gay dancing shows, cooking shows and silly reality shows. The civilians are dying a slow death, baked, faked and all to the strains of the Macarena on constant loop.

What does this say about modern Britain? Nothing, absolutely nothing, because there is nothing left, absolutely nothing has transcended even a millimetre towards some kind of mental absolution, some kind of understanding. The people who watch this grotesque pithy background stuff, are themselves lost in the mire, forgotten, and ultimately condemned to a perpetual dystopian nightmare of televisual torture.

Hell definitely is a real thing, that is if you watch anything on the telly these days.

Celebration of Migration: World’s 25 Most Successful 1st and 2nd Generation Migrants Revealed

0

A new study by easyESTA has revealed 25 of the most pioneering first and second generation migrants.

This interactive celebration of migration explores the heritage and careers of migrants from
arts and literature, entertainment, politics, sports and science and technology. ​
​
Celebrating diversity, the piece discusses influential men and women from different
nationalities, and breaks down their (often surprising) family migration history.

Commissioned by easyESTA, ‘25 of the most successful and influential migrants of all
time…’ highlights the impact of migration on the world’s cultures and industries.​
​
Whether performing sensational escape acts or starring in critically acclaimed films,
migration has heavily impacted upon the lives of actresses, musicians, illusionists and game developers.

Controlled Migration is Good For Nations
​
You may know Natalie Portman for her role in Black Swan but did you know that she was
born in Jerusalem? Alongside Portman is the Kenyan-Mexican Lupita Nyong’o and Zanzibari
Freddie Mercury, the Queen frontman. Henry Kissinger, the most famous living statesman today was born in Germany and eventually emigrated to the United States fleeing the Nazi regime in 1938.

Diversity Through Controlled Migration

easyESTA’s unique look of how history and heritage intertwine among remarkable migrants
is ultimately a celebration of migration when the topic is seldom out of the headlines.​

A spokesperson from easyESTA said:​

“Culture is incredibly important to us at easyESTA, we commissioned this study to better
understand the significance of migration and how migration has positively impacted on
different industries. ​
​
“The research surprised us with how diverse people really are. We gained insight into the
migrants’ physical and metaphorical journeys. By understanding the cultures that have
influenced the migrants’ lives, a new meaning has been added to their legacies.”​

How Kim and His Little EMP Toy Could Take USA to 19th Century

0

 

“Electromagnetic pulses destroy electronics because they induce a very strong current in the electronic circuitry, causing different parts of the electronics to couple, short-circuiting them or even inducing such a large current that the circuits themselves melt or fuse together, rendering the electronics unusable.

“Turning off electronics will not protect them because the EMP is the source of energy that induces current in the circuits. The only way to protect them would be to place them in a Faraday Cage,” an informed member of the public revealed on Monday.

So, unless you put all your electronic devices, computers, phones etc into a Faraday cage prior to an EMP attack, you’re screwed. It is certain that there will not be any warning prior to a surprise EMP attack.

The same goes for any vehicle past the date of 1986, the solenoids and electronics will get fried in an EMP attack. The best option is to own a 4-wheel drive Jeep pre-1986 because you will be going through rugged terrain away from the starving armed hordes on foot. One of the best road vehicles you can own after an EMP blast is a Harley Davidson MT350E motorcycle, with military spec wiring that will shield it from EMP.

As for the effects of an EMP blast, on any nation, let alone the USA, the effects are devastating.

No electricity grid, no water, and no communications. There will be no Facebook, Twitter or Google, as all their data centres would be fried. All cell networks would also be fried, and any call to an emergency service will go unanswered.

All paper money will become worthless in a single day, and the only thing of value will be food, water, weapons, shelter, transport and gold.

Amish horse drawn cart

“Within 24 hours of an EMP blast by North Korea directly over the centre of the country, most of America (excluding some parts of the Eastern, Western coasts) would be catapulted back into the early 19th century (pre-1820). All Americans would effectively become the Amish albeit with heavy weaponry. If you don’t have candles, you’re shit out of luck. If you don’t have an immediate year’s supply of food and water, you’ll be shit out of luck too. All supermarkets would have been emptied within the first few hours of an EMP attack, once that’s all gone, there will never be any re-deliveries, that’s it. As for the military, they will stay where they are, as they have no cause to endanger themselves. The military will have prepared and their electronics will be intact, but civilians will be out of luck. The only thing left to do for the remaining government will be to wait until the majority of the population either kill themselves off or die of starvation within 18 months,” an ex-military commander outlined.

 

Living in a metro area in the United States today may be convenient, but after an EMP attack, the cities will be killing zones. That’s why you have to get the fuck out of dodge as soon as there is an attack. Hopefully you will own a suitable vehicle that is not susceptible to EMP blasts. Always have a bag ready (bug out bag) for such emergencies, stockpiled with all the necessary survival materials.

All supermarkets will have empty shelves within 24 hours of an EMP strike

Once out of the city, you will head for your designated safe house, which you will have prepared earlier. If that does not exist, you will be best served heading towards Canada, past the border “slash” extending from Maine to Alaska, and the forests there where you will have to build a suitable shelter for you and your family. Do not head towards Mexico, or you will die.

There are even further dangers present after an EMP attack, and that is a full invasion from a foreign force. We could be talking about anything from the Russians to the North Koreans committing a full ground invasion on a country that has been crippled by an EMP attack.

As a survivor, you will have to make provisions for this, and retreat to an area where there is little or no human population or military bases.

The USA, as a nation, which uses up 60% of the earth’s resources, would be reduced to using zero in a single day. This may be the only positive factor about an attack on America utilising EMP. However, the vacuum created by the loss of the US, and its vast economy will be devastating to the rest of the world’s economy.

Once again, the lands which had been taken from the Native Americans will be returned to them, and the tribes will roam the same open prairies their ancestors roamed.

FBI Labels Antifa as Domestic Terrorists

0

Confidential records reveal that the heavily George Soros funded group Antifa have been labelled as “domestic terrorists’ by the FBI and Homeland Security.

After a spate of extreme violence over the past few months in the United States, the spotlight is not only on the right wing fascists, but the extreme left wing fascists as well.

The recent Charlottesville debacle showed the extreme levels of violence the Antifa group were prepared to go to to put forward their message, however, it seems the message they were trying to put forward has been lost in translation.

“Antifa is meant to mean Anti-fascist, however, the group is acting like a violent fascist group, and in effect, they should be fighting themselves. They are also meant to stand for anti-racism, but this element is never addressed in their violent ridden rallies. I would go far as to say the group does not care one iota for minority groups, and is committing acts of extreme violence as a statement of anarchy more than anything else,” Miles Kudro, an independent observer of the various groups revealed, Thursday.

Living Your Single Life to the Full – Londoners Prefer to be Alone

0

The Martin Scorcese film Taxi Driver hit the nail on the head with the eternal loner, wandering the big city, all these people around — yet, so alone. In every big city worldwide including London, reside the Travis Bickle’s, alone, alienated, yet being single does not have to be quite as raw as that portrayal, in fact, it can be quite calming and peaceful.

London, the United Kingdom’s most ethnically diverse city, has a well-deserved
reputation for being the loneliest city in these isles. There’s plenty of night life but the
standoffishness of its inhabitants is legendary.

The Jam dealt with the theme of alienation in their hit single, Strange Town. Taking on
the perspective of an alien landing in the British capital, Paul Weller offered a stark view of the isolation felt by outsiders. Those words written in 1979 apply equally today.

But being single isn’t necessarily about moving to a new town or city. It can simply be
timing; friends in long-term relationships while you’re in ‘transition’ or wilfully single.
There’s a lot of that about; Betway Insider recently commissioned a study, What are the
Odds?, which took lifetime events and occurrences. There was a 1 in 8 chance of
staying with your first love; for most people it means they will know a long-term couple
who go from school through adult life together.

Yet as EurekAlert! found last year, being single isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Bella
DePaulo, PHD, observed that “the preoccupation with the perils of loneliness can
obscure the profound benefits of solitude.”

We’re not talking the Greta Garbo “I want to be alone” – OK so it’s a misquote(!) but
it’s been adopted by society – but finding the tranquillity to make sense of life through
the moments of ‘me time’.

There’s a difference between being alone and being lonely. The two are the mutual
preserve of the singleton. Indeed, the report claims that “when people marry, they
become more insular.” In contrast, single people were more open and felt more in
charge of their lives. That’s down to the compromises necessary in a relationship.

A key reason for the ‘never-marrieds’ being happier is goal-fulfilment. Contrary to the
widely-held and media-fed perception, single people are likely to enjoy a richer social
life than their married counterparts. The sole focus of their enjoyment is themselves and
no need to compromise over what activities or groups to take part in.

Swipe To Your Partner

​That’s not to say it’s all wine and roses. In the 21st Century, the electronic world is often
the basis for meeting new people. Dating apps are the way forward and the root cause
for the rise in Repetitive Stress Injury cases; who knew swiping left caused such
problems.

It’s hardly surprising that numbers of app users is increasing, even discounting thoseDating-App
searching for an illicit relationship. The number of marriages taking place up to 2014 is
dropping. In 1934, there were 342,000 marriages; in 2014, it fell to 247,000. That
doesn’t seem much but consider that the population of the United Kingdom was 46.66m
and had risen to 64.352m in 2014.

The underlying percentage in that eighty-year spell fell from 0.73% of the population
being married to 0.38%; that’s a staggering drop but hardly unsurprising with the
changing demographics of the population.

And while the age-old joke about men being commitment-phobes may be one of the
reasons for the change but it seems the modern-day Londoner is taking the concept to a
whole new level. It’s a city to have fun in, even for the worst dullard in existence.

London lends itself to the single life. Unless your salary is comfortably in six figures,
it’s unlikely that you own your own place or even rent a home by yourself. Flat-sharing
with a married couple is an uncomfortable experience unless you’re a couple moving
into the situation. With an estimated 60% of wages going on the average Londoner’s
wage, the bills play havoc with your wallet or purse.

There’s a massive plus side to this. It means you can lead a Peter Pan existence, living
like a student well into so-called maturity. This time though, you’ve got a disposable
income although with the rising costs of the capital city, it’s by no means certain that
you’ll be out living the high life every night of the week.

But DePaulo is using her research as a call to arms. The University of California
scientist is determined to promote equality of status for the unwed. “It is time for a more
accurate portrayal of single people and single life,” DePaulo declared. “One that
recognizes the real strengths and resilience of people who are single, and what makes
their lives so meaningful.”

Say it loud, I’m single and I’m proud.

Like Playing Games on Your Computer? Here are Your Best Free Options

0

This article focuses around some of the best free games that you can play.

They are available for download without any fee required and you can jump in and play at any moment.

Free games can range across multiple categories, and so do people’s interests. Someone with a strong interest for gambling might want some casino type games.

If you’re one of those people, you can check out freecasinogamesnodownload.com. In the meantime, make sure to also check out the games below.

Pinball Arcade

Pinball Arcade is a lovely little game that will keep you busy for a very long time. It’s the digital version of the beloved and oldschool game, Pinball. Just like the one in the bar or the arcade, Pinball Arcade lets you put your skills to the test in having a ball bounce around an enclosed area. It might seem like straight up luck for some, but after you’ve put some practice into it you’ll be able to control how many points you’re getting with ease.

Smite

Do you like tales of gods and goddesses? Are you fascinated by what the Greeks, Romans or Danes had to say about their gods? If the answer is yes, you should try Smite, a free game in which you can take control of a god, from any pantheon you choose.

All of the world’s cultures are represented and the game is working hard to bring in as many new gods as possible. If you have a thing for Anubis or Thor, you can step in their shoes in video game form and fight other gods in the arena.

Dota 2

Dota 2 is a game that was inspired and actually designed from a custom map of the popular oldie but goldie, Warcraft 3.

The map is called Defense of the Ancients, and when you put it in acronym form what do you get? That’s right, Dota. Dota 2 is developed by Valve, the company behind Half-Life 1 and Half-Life 2, and it is classified as a MOBA.

This means that two teams duke it out with magic and weapons and creatures and a lot of smashing, but also faithful minions that do their bidding. The end goal is to destroy the core of the enemy team’s base.

Sounds easy enough, but it’s not, as it will take you some time to get there, as you make your way through the forest, over the river, into enemy territory and past their deadly turrets that will fire at you when it sees you.

Star Wars ‘The Last Jedi’ Luke Skywalker Secrets Leaked

0

The six pieces of paper that were copied from production notes then dumped on the internet yesterday reveal that Luke Skywalker is something that has not been seen awhile in any Star Wars episode for some time, or a long, long time ago in a galaxy far away in the reaches of the universe somewhere up the rear end of Alpha Centauri in quadrant eight, twelve parsecs down under the Kessel run, and one up the Khyber Pass.

After much soul searching and deliberation on the implications this could have on Star Wars fans we can slowly unearth some of the leaked details and find out what they mean.

We can reveal that Luke Skywalker is the last Jedi. Also, Luke Skywalker is not only a jedi and has links with the Force, but he owns a lightsaber too. This incredible finding will have most fans gasping for air in sheer dismay, can you imagine, Luke also owns a lightsaber?

In the film, cinema watchers will be able to see Luke Skywalker holding the previously mentioned lightsaber and waving it around. He will also teach others to do the same thing. Imagine that? Luke Skywalker is not only a jedi but he can hold a lightsaber and wave it around whilst talking about the Force. Incredible. This new film will blow you away at the intricate details revealed once and for all.

But here’s the clincher. Luke Skywalker is not only a jedi, he lives on a rocky island where there is no food, no vegetation and is surrounded by freezing sea on a planet that looks suspiciously like Scotland or maybe Ireland. So not only is Luke Skywalker a jedi who can hold a lightsaber well, he lives on a rocky island in a distant sea with no food or water or anything. He does not even get any Amazon deliveries, and there is no supermarket around the corner to get some fags and booze, or even a chippy, or heaven forbid, some wifi. Absolutely shit around. Nothing, just a jedi with a lightsaber and an occasional person who comes along who wants to be a jedi too. This time though, we can reveal that it’s a wee lass who turns up on the rocky shore. The sad thing is, Luke does not shag her, imagine after all those years, a nice bit of totty lands on your shores, it would be a mad scramble to even get a sniff of her scent. But no, Luke Skywalker is a jedi who can hold a lightsaber and talks about the Force and lives on a rocky island with nothing there. That’s all he fucking does for fucks sake.

According to the leaked text, the film after this next one, will also feature Luke Skywalker back on the rock island, doing pretty much nothing again, but still holding a lightsaber and talking about the Force because he’s a jedi and maybe something a lil extra might happen, who knows? Can’t wait.

May the Force be with you.
