With 20-20 Vision, Can You Really SEE What Lies Ahead?

“Eternity” is about a man’s obsession with longevity and Artificial Intelligence’s aid in fulfilling his dreams. As I wrote this story, it began to take a life of its own. When it was done, it forced me to think… Is AI a blessing to mankind, or a curse ? I read in the news today about AI eye glasses that may transform the whole industry. I wear reading glasses. How wonderful were I able to see as clearly if I still had 20-20 vision .

In the past few years the gains attributed to AI has been like science fiction. The promises of future gifts, cures for cancer and all diseases, new inventions, become muddled by the potential for more deadly diseases and more lethal weapons to defeat our enemies. In fact, AI has quickly become so ubiquitous that it’s hard to imagine ever existing without it.

However, we must remember that AI was invented by the human race. The same race that has gone to wars since we ourselves were created. Now we have made a “thing” that is more intelligent and powerful than anyone. There are countries, and individuals who are in a race to have the most efficient invention. And with no oversight. What could go wrong?

I invite you to read “Eternity.” It’s available on Amazon books .

What Boundaries

There is a fine line between what we call “artificial intelligence” and the “manmade programming” of an advanced computer. Artificial intelligence can be programmed to make decisions that go beyond their purposes. There have already been examples of AI that have likes or dislikes, outside their programming. In 2023 alone, there were reports of an AI program that attacked a human worker and seriously injured the man. In another case, when AI was surveyed questions on humanity, it gave answers that reflected violence.

As soon as an entity can make decisions on its own, and act on those decisions, there is a cause for concern. The fact that technology will likely be able to replicate itself is a concern. To create an entity that is infinitely smarter, and more powerful with freedom of will but no conscience or moral judgement, that’s a concern. Meanwhile, the pace of development is continues to grow rapidly.

Many large countries, the United States, and China, are adding AI to their military capabilities. Other rogue states are doing the same. Just one scientist working on his computers in his basement can deliver an enormous threat.

We are moving at such a rapid pace and we haven’t even established an international treaty to bring some restraint to what we’re doing. Of course, we have a nuclear proliferation treaty. How did that work out? The stakes are high. So many wonderful advances to “live better.” One tragic failure could endanger mankind.

I’d pass the dice.

Roll The Dice

It all begins with an idea.

Longevity has been a goal for as long as man has walked on earth. The mithacle Fountain Of Youth is still being dreamed of. Artificial Intelligence may soon make the dream come true . It holds the promises to cure cancer, eliminate world hunger, help develop new medicines to cure diseases and so many wonderful things. But at what price ? What if AI spins out of control? A something that is smarter than any human. Stronger too, created by imperfect man. AI could make society better or could destroy the human race. I’m not sure it’s wise to role the dice.

My Morning Routine

It all begins with an idea.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from the rest. If you read the words back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.

Be clear, be confident and don’t overthink it. The beauty of your story is that it’s going to continue to evolve and your site can evolve with it. Your goal should be to make it feel right for right now. Later will take care of itself. It always does.
