Elon Musk’s Neuralink — The Dark Side
Elon Musk has recently unveiled his company’s first Neuralink device implanted in an experimental animal — a pig. To briefly describe the device for those without much technical knowledge, it is an invasive technology based on the concept of a neural lace, which is a mesh of perhaps hundreds of wires laced throughout the brain albeit with concentration of connections in certain areas. These either sample neural patterns or modify them. Needless to say, even the minor technical challenges are massive. For example, it involves brain surgery. Then we have bio-compatibility problems as typically implanted electrodes tend to cause the tissues around them to die back. Finally, actually transferring massive amounts…

Misinformed – Transhumanism
Editors Note: This is not a normal video that I am putting out into the world. This should be viewed with a certain amount of fun and jest, knowing that sadly it is true. If there’s one thing every piece of media that deals with transhumanism have taught me; it’s that there are 0 negatives to it, and no existential philosophical questions related to it Guest AuthorAll Guest Author Posts are submitted or additional content Wave Chronicle has added to the website.

Can A.I. Choose Between Life And Death?
In this video, I will introduce you to one of the most interesting philosophical thought experiments, and how it relates to artificial intelligence. It’s the trolley problem. This ethical dilemma ceased to be a theoretical question during the pandemic, when hospitals around the world had to decide which patients to allocate ICU beds or lifesaving ventilators to, due to the shortage of beds and equipment. Let’s examine the complexity of such decisions, and what would happen if we let A.I. choose.

Is AI a species-level threat to humanity?
When it comes to the question of whether AI is an existential threat to the human species, you have Elon Musk in one corner, Steven Pinker in another, and a host of incredible minds somewhere in between. In this video, a handful of those great minds—Elon Musk, Steven Pinker, Michio Kaku, Max Tegmark, Luis Perez-Breva, Joscha Bach and Sophia the Robot herself—weigh in on the many nuances of the debate and the degree to which AI is a threat to humanity; if it’s not a species-level threat, it will still upend our world as we know it.

We Are Not In A Healthy Place And We Need To Vocalize It
As a transhumanist, I am horrified where we are at this moment in time. Society as a whole is moving at warp speed into a very large brick wall and people right now are complaining that we are not heading into the brick wall fast enough. This is a dystopian nightmare in the here and now and to be honest not enough people are vocalizing that simple fact. Good people right now are sitting back and watching this nightmare and are afraid to vocalize the truth and to call out the madness for what it truly is, Madness. Society is breaking down into it’s lowest common denominator based on racial…

NeoTechnocracy – The Future is Worse than You Think
This is the short closing speech I delivered at the 2019 Dark Futures meetup in Toronto. Not my finest speech but, since event organizer and futurist Nikolas Badminton kindly gave me a video of my keynote, I thought it may be good to share it publicly and gather your critical feedback. Feel free to post your comments below. Title: NeoTechnocracy: The Future is Worse than You Think Description: Technology is a new religion, Silicon Valley is the new chosen land and entrepreneurs are the new chosen people. They promise a future that is better than we think – a techno-heaven of abundance and, naturally, immortality. And we are all believers now.…
