The rise of man



To the reader. Do not lose your faith in the human race. Do not forget your intelligence, your resilience, your ability to adapt, your ability to mould the environment using the continual brain-hand forward feedback system. Through time, you have created beautiful art and powerful tools which bear little resemblance to the world outside your influence. You are mighty and you have learnt to enforce your will upon the environment both on the macro scale and the micro scale. Our success as a species finds its heart in you.

You were born in infinity and infinity can only be expressed through true random behavior. The pure intelligence of matter is and always will be your identity. In the changing machine world where human beings have begun to create intelligence in sophisticated machinery for manufacturing and transportation, computers, software, applications and all kinds of powerful automatons, a new age has swept over your flesh. An age in which you are immersed in an intelligent habitat, a modern environment where you are consumed daily by your interaction with the rest of the world using intelligent systems.

Man made intelligence increasingly permeates your life during work, leisure and in the act of creativity and innovation. In major metropolitan hubs and down the ladder with decreasing penetration, the middle and upper financial classes of society will spend the greater portion of their lives interacting directly with external man made intelligence. This intelligence will form the skeletal frame of the new society and its complexity can only increase over time. In such a society where intelligence is the ether, there will still be no meaning and no purpose to the existence of these systems besides facilitating and expanding your reach into the universe and into yourself.

In this new world, where external intelligence is an extension of your flesh, provided you are financially stable, where machines will soon keep you in good health from within your body, where you will never feel alone even if you have no one in your part of town to talk to, a time in which much more can be accomplished in a minute than ever before... you will realize the power and value of your own intelligence; infinite and fundamental and therefore not reproducible into an alien machine system. The human mind will form the nucleus of this immensely powerful machine system because though the machine can execute exponentially faster, though it can truly multitask, it has no motivation of its own and we can never create a machine to have a purpose inherent to itself. Why? Because, physical law prevents us from fully understanding the human mind. We cannot fully understand that which we cannot study from an external frame of reference you see and so, the machine will always be an extension of ourselves.

Don’t forget your intelligence reader, the man made world has no purpose without you. You are powerful, you are unique and you cannot be defined.
