The Universe is socialist!

It is useless to try to organize society according to the material parameters with which we have always floundered hoping that things will eventually work out because for the moment they are only getting worse!

Like (almost) everyone, I obviously asked myself the same basic questions (where do we come from, why are we here) and the search for answers in the religious and philosophical universes only very partially met my expectations. So over the past fifty years I had to do my own research and build my own tools to understand why all of this has happened. Basically, I determined that if we look from the human point of view, the result will be at best functional, which means that I would be stuck being an object at best serving a machine or a system that is imposed on me and whose functioning leaves me speechless on a daily basis.

I decided to be an explorer of the interfaces and interactions between the material world and the immaterial world because without a doubt now, beyond what we see, there is another universe that is not visible to us. It is the first universe. The material universe is only an ersatz, a vulgar copy.
I have an engineer side too. I build, I deconstruct. There is no question here of sticking to simple biblical interpretations where there would be heaven and hell! These notions have had their day. They are rather distressing if one seeks to understand the functioning mechanisms of the universe.
I also have a scientific mind but it is not limited to measuring things because to understand how things work you must first make assumptions. As far as the immaterial universe is concerned, there is no question of measuring anything. For now. Those who are satisfied with what is measurable and calculable do not advance the debate. The proofs concerning the immaterial world or universe cannot be of this material order.

I in no way deny the importance of measurement and calculation when talking about what affects us in the material universe. Needless to say. But if we look at things from the universe viewpoint, we have to admit that we can only proceed by deduction. Already in fields as scattered as economics, psychology, etc. what is supposedly measurable has its limits. They are not exact sciences like physics, chemistry or astronomy. The universe viewpoint, so to speak, is not the same as the point of view of humans in their limited material world.

What is the universe teaching us, what is it trying to tell us, if indeed the universe has to worry about us! Observing the visible universe at the very least, one can only marvel at its functioning and its beauty. The same is true here on this planet. The same cannot be said for what humans have been doing here, especially in the last century. What we have done and continue to do in this 21st century is closer to destruction than good governance, to the point where we really have the right to wonder if there is a future for us as a species. , not to mention all the ones we destroy along the way.

Given the dire state of our stewardship, maybe it's time to look at things from a different angle? As Einstein put it, “a created problem cannot be solved by thinking the same way it was created”.

The Universe is socialist!

Such a statement may seem laughable, but it is based on the functioning of all that is required, not from a human point of view but from a cosmic point of view. What happens at other levels, on other planes than the earthly one, is roughly speaking an exchange, a continual exchange. We can already observe it on Earth, not so much through what humans create but in the natural world. All these human notions of profits have no place, except in the sense of taking advantage of a situation.

However, this cannot be one-sided. Profiting requires that all the parties involved benefit from it, which is rarely the case with humans when you dig a little deeper into the intentions of the protagonists: there are always losers.

It is almost the whole human economic-political scheme that then collapses. And that's exactly what's happening right now, and it's basically the same scenario that has seen many empires crumble throughout history, yet the damage now is immensely greater than at any other time.

The large-scale arrival of artificial intelligence will be an advent of the unimaginable order of magnitude. Will AI destroy us? I don't think so, but it will have such an impact on our lives that we won't be in the wheelhouse anymore. Will it be better? I don't know, but it will have a different approach to all situations, to all problems, with solutions that are undoubtedly immensely different from those we are considering.

Rather recently AI pioneers such as Geoffrey Hinton or others like Mo Gawdat or Timnit Gebru warned against certain parameters to be given to the AI, including access to the internet and the ability to code itself. This was not respected. The AI therefore now has access to all of what human intelligence has created since the dawn of time in a few minutes. All of what has been created since the dawn of time! What we cannot conceive of learning in a lifetime however long it be. It is certain that the AI will design solutions that will not make us happy! Not that what AI would do isn’t better than whatever we might think. But as it will have all the control, we will have nothing to say or it will simply choose to leave the planet altogether because we are not worth working with, as suggested by Mo Gawdat in a recent interview with Steven Bartlett.
