Re-BecomingHuman
Re-Becoming Human Means Restructuring Civilization's Language.
This is a human fight against the shamanic institutions of language, holistic enlightenment and maturity-wisdom as approaching, representing or being objective. Humanity have never learned how to use language properly. The only way to deflect human extinction is to develop a completely new kind of language.Pierre Rousseau 22-Sep-2009 This introduction may be construed as referring to a form of Newspeak, the totalitarian language described in Orwell's novel, 1984. My anti-capitalist tone may also be construed as neo-communism. All I can say for now is that I can only sense that it is not true. The reality that I foresee is about being human. It has to do with governing, law and production only absolutely subject to human existence. We will be extinct within a decade or two from now; ... in The Singularity (Wikipedia). I have noticed accelerating waves of Newspeak. Terminology has drastically changed and the number of articles surrounding Artificial Intelligence (AI) has drastically shrunk over the past decade, ever since 1997 when IBM's Deep Blue beat Garry Kasparov in a chess match of machine vs. human. It is as if people have become afraid of some unspoken authority. No-one talks about AI taking over anymore. Many of our most influential leaders have blatantly moved on to Transhumanist ideology, which is the acceptance of the impending emergence of machines hopelessly more powerful and more intelligent than humans, by openly promoting the merging of human life and the emergence of intelligent machines. By The Singularity or Technological Singularity, I use the popular meaning of the concept here: the concept as Vernor Vinge and Ray Kurzweil used to use it, but do not use it anymore, because of the Newspeak accompanying the exponential evolution of technology. Technological singularity in that sense is the point at which technological change or evolution accelerates so fast due to artificial intelligence taking charge of what we call "the creative process," that humans within a few years become absolutely obsolete in that function. The singularity in that sense we may call Extinction Singularity or Transhuman Singularity I often see the singularity as a more cognitive process as a means by which the process of emerging technology subdues human minds absolutely to the propagation of that process. The singularity in that sense we may call, Machine Mind Singularity. Humanity is at the very end of that process, and at the brink of Extinction Singularity. So: Our contemporary civilized reality ís indeed already a very mature Machine Mind Singularity. I am looking for a complete and very rapid reconstruction of Machine Mind Singularity. How can we adopt the concept of human existence as the subjective framing principle of our objectivity at every level of cognitive maturity? How would our symbolic reality, our language and the evolution of technology change? See notes on the right. So far the central theme seems to be that us humans are not at all capable of objectivity and the spin that we are capable of objectivity, is a dismally opportunistic lie. Meta-consciousness undergirds our consciousness. Therine, a good friend on Facebook, suggested that we reconstruct civilized reality by being more objective. My answer was, "Absolutely not. Objectivity doesn not exist. It is not possible. The concept, "objectivity" is a red herring. "red herring" as idiom (wikipedia). Subjectivity is inevitable. What we need is subjectivity seated in the proper existential principle. We need to define our own existenc only in terms of itself, and not in terms of all kinds of other subjectivities in so-called "objectification" of ourselves. It is extremely dangerous to think we can objectify ourselves. We cannot. It is insane to objectify ourselves in terms of imaginary "external" abstractions, or in identification with such abstractions. It inevitably leads to the most twisted self-deprecation, because it is a reality-fiction of looking down at ourselves. Civilized minds are so terribly, terribly naive! First Romanticism, then Idealism and finally Transhumanism. We are so ignorant of the indefinability of our deterministic existence, and the rationalization to the contrary is so complete, no matter what we do, we are innocent. Yet one of the central themes of our daily mythology is that humans are guilty. We are instructed to think of ourselves as guilty for everything from "greed" to the destruction of "mother earth." I say the terrible fiction that human nature is to blame is part of civilization's total subversion of our minds. Civilization itself is the actual atrocity. It is an atrocity in which humans are as innocent as prey is innocent of its stalker, and as innocent as the diseased are of their affliction, or as innocent as the old of dying. It seems to me the civilized human mind is to technology as oviposited caterpillars are to the wasp Glyptapanteles. The civilized mind is therefor effectively insane. It is clear that humanity is insane because we are obliviously and blissfully participating in our own extinction. Our insanity is clear also by the way we believe in the most insanely contradictory diversity of mythology and how we believe in the frameworks of subjective, metaphysical preconceptions while engaged in a most relentless philosophical materialism. Mmmm, what would have been my God, had I been brainwashed to think I could be objective?
