There are three concepts that are tightly bound in the minds of the corporate owners and the technologists who are developing intelligent machines.

Those are artificial intelligence (AI), digital identity and depopulation.

Of course it is sold to you, dear citizen, as convenience, free cash and liberty. The latest example is Worldcoin, that went “live” last month, in which people are lured to scan their retina in exchange for crypto money.

AI is not only inevitable but also ill defined. Most attempts at a definition stray into speculation about self awareness or the use, or not, of memory. Zulaikha Lateef has written a handy introduction at Edureka. I’m sure a dozen nerds could find fault but, hey, she’s not tongue tied. [1]

Artificial Intelligence

What is this Artificial Intelligence that is at once liberating and collectivist? Why do so many prominent technologists warn about its dangers while pursuing it in projects, like Elon Musk’s Neuralink or Peter Thiel’s Palantir?

Many of these individuals consider themselves Libertarians. While it is true that technology has no logic, it follows the objective to which it is put.

That is why mud-slingers, who chant fascist or communist at each other, or shoehorn the age of big data into their existing political ideologies of late-stage capitalism or Globocap, are so unsatisfied — because it doesn’t adequately account for what we see happening.

Maybe there’s a reason students are taught theory, for it derails observation. What we witness right now conflicts with the government narrative. It is a time for doubt not theory, for when people begin to doubt they ask questions, and look at their surroundings.

The front men are the big foundations — Rockefeller, World Economic Forum, Open Society — and the front men are also the CEO’s of corporations — taking their Woke orders from Larry Fink of BlackRock — and the bureaucrats who hand the same corporations contracts and subsidies.

That is the syndicate, as Mae Brussell called it 50 years ago.

These foundations and corporations of necessity reflect the interests of the most powerful — what we perceive are the trends: data capture, digitization under the skin, social credit, and big pharma for good or ill.

Social credit scores cannot be pegged to China because they began not in the communist system but in Western insurance companies, from which they spread to banks and then corporations.

AI makes possible the cybernetic control of humans — big data systems — and that requires the digital identification, tracking and surveillance of every resource, human and other.

Digital identity

Governments and technologists assure us that digital ID will protect us... from identity theft, for example, and allow us to prove who we are.

In reality, digital ID works the other way around. It could help us know that a politician or a president is genuine and not an imposter. Wouldn’t that be handy?

Censors and propagandists would likely use AI to populate the Internet with distraction — think how governments are pushing UFOs just now, or what in the past fortnight we experienced when the secretary-general of the United Nations declared the era of “global boiling.”

Such lunacy reminds one that revolutions begin by declaring there is no god. Then they declare that the new boss is god. Like the Bolsheviks, the first target of the Nazis or NSDAP — for whom Dachau was built — was the Church.

Digital ID might be the only way to find or trust a source. It might be necessary to identify the humans from the replicating bots.

In other words, digital ID should (but likely won’t) protect the individual from government. It should be your defence against more powerful forces that would otherwise steal your stuff — digital or material.

In an ideal world, the individual does not need to prove who he or she is, for what they stand to lose by deception is greater than they gain.

“There is a role for stupidity, though. As the late economist Carlo Cipolla showed in his The Five Laws of Stupidity the weakest minds do the greatest harm to society. A bandit is one thing — he aims to profit from your loss — but a stupid person will cause loss or harm to himself while sowing chaos all around.”

You don’t need central bank digital currency. Online payments work just fine. The only entity that stands to gain further power from CBDC is privately-owned central banks.

Like all totalitarians, they win people’s compliance by promising liberation, before forcing everyone into categories and control.

Digital passports

Before the seventeenth century there was no compulsory system of passports. The German states required passes for military service, for people traveling from areas where there had been epidemics, and sometimes for Jews.

The French revolution introduced the strictest and most widespread passport system once the leaders began to execute their own, such as early leader of the revolution Georges Danton.

Soon other countries introduced passports to stop the spread of revolutionary ideas. Yet during the nineteenth century, the spread of liberalism and trade led to the dropping of passports. By 1914 only Russia, Turkey and some Austrian territories retained them. [2]

A slippery slope

Worldcoin lures people in with free cryptocurrency in order to create a new “identity and financial network.”

At the same time Amazon announced it would roll out Amazon One, “the fast, convenient, contactless way to use your palm to pay at a store.”

These are “non-invasive” and scan eyes and palms. But having ridiculed as a conspiracy theory the idea of chipping people, USA Today headlines: “You will get chipped – eventually.”

A German data watchdog has been investigating Worldcoin for a year. The Bavarian State Office for Data Protection Supervision says the project seeks to manipulate “sensitive data at a very large scale.”

The Cayman Islands-based entity led by the pioneer of Open AI, Sam Altman, says it complies with the European Union’s data protection laws. If so, this merely confirms that Worldcoin is on board with the globalists.

The “protection” of personal data by regulators has always been misleading. In Britain, for example, there are rules that prevent sharing individual data — sometimes a spouse living in the same household cannot query the cable bill — and yet corporations and governments are allowed to sell data in bulk.

Individuals can be identified from bulk data by cross-referencing and that is exactly what AI does. [3]

Privacy becomes a joke when multiple services — banking, medical, travel, education — are combined into an “everything app” as proposed by Elon Musk, based on China’s Weixin and WeChat.

“Know your customer” has been a way for banks to extract ever more personal information from a customer. It should be renamed from KYC to K-Y Jelly.

The scandal in Britain over NatWest bank withdrawing services from customers based on their political views takes this to a new level.

Depopulation

There are lots of articles about how AI will solve the problem of a shrinking workforce... caused by people choosing to have fewer children.

Goldman Sachs calculated in March the technology could soon replace the equivalent of 300 million jobs in the U.S. and Europe.

It is already happening. Restaurants face a shortage of up to half a million workers and are using chat bots to take orders. [4]

Former Google CEO and executive chairman Eric Schmidt, who now works inside the Pentagon, told Fortune in May:

“In the U.S., a historically tight labor market could become even tighter in the coming decades as a result of fewer children being born.... Companies started tapping A.I. and automation technology years ago for jobs like truck driving and bar tending, professions that many workers willingly walked away from during the pandemic.” [5]

Statistician and former BlackRock analyst Edward Dowd has shown that hundreds of thousands of U.S. and UK workers are dead or disabled — “cause unknown” — and that unemployment is falling not because more people have jobs, but because there are fewer people available to work.

If it is not from the vaccine it is from something else.

In the U.S. Dowd calculates about 300,000 excess deaths in 2021 and 2022, 1.3 million on disability, and 26 million Americans injured — based on absence from work and disability claims, as well as Pfizer’s clinical trial data. That totals about 30 million Americans out of the workforce or almost 10 per cent of the population. [6]

He also uses the U.S government Bureau of Labor Statistics to show what things “went off the rails” in February of 2021. The BLS gives annualised data for absence and work time lost — and it went even higher in 2022 to 13 standard deviations above trend: a black swan event.

Taking data from the British welfare payments system, Personal Independence Payments, Dowd reports illness broken down by type. Blood related claims were more than 500 per cent above trend in 2022, having previously been stable.

Again, if it is not from the vaccine it is from something else.

Dowd, a partner at Phinance Technologies, is the author of “Cause Unknown - The Epidemic of Sudden Deaths in 2021 & 2022.” [7]

For good measure, here’s an attempt at a fact check. [8]

Putting 2 and 2 together, the replacement of workers by AI was coming, and the owner-investors decided to get rid of a population that was costing too much in retirement, welfare and medical costs.

Technologists talk

The objective of some is to lure what survives of humanity inside the artificial intelligence system.

There are two ways to look at the biggest story in the world:

1. There is an attempt to create homo sapiens 2.0; humanity evolves to the next level. Techno fetishism is propagandised as liberation.

2. The owner-investors no longer have use for homo sapiens 1.0.

Think about those two, dear reader, from the point of view of the citizen and the owner-investor.

Then consider:

3. AI cannot understand beauty, nor can it know what is good. All that AI can do is is reduce everything into the unending pursuit of efficiency.

You will find a lot of deception from corporations and those behind AI. In a seeming joke, if you type “ai” in lower case, Google will tell you it is a three-toed sloth.

The author and commentator Joe Allen draws a parallel between gnostics and transhumanists. The former see spirituality as the highest aspiration, and the material as evil. Transhumanists are transcending humanity through the material. We witness a strange conflation of the two.

The genital mutilation movement has historical parallels in religion: the most recent being the Skoptsy sect in Russia, which started in the late eighteenth century.

Another parallel is the Sabbatean Frankists, a Jewish sect, that rejected social norms. Jacob Frank obliged his followers to transgress as many moral boundaries as possible, the idea being, loosely, that the Earth could only be expurgated of evil by exhausting it.

Reaching for another, more simple, related concept, Sergei Brin, co-founder of Google, told Elon Musk that he wants AI (artificial intelligence) to become “god” and dismissed Musk’s argument to his “former friend” that AI threatened human life. Brin accused Musk of “speciesism” — the human-held belief that all other animal species are inferior.

Or Malthusians, who created a credo for the East India Company, to justify the slaving and the plunder, that the banker financiers parlayed into the Rhodes scholarship, the Milner Round Table, and which is taught today in Oxford’s courses on Politics, Philosophy and Economics (PPE) — the most popular degree among politicians besides law.
