RAEL\u2019S COMMENT: <\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n
Very stupid analysis, especially the conclusion: \u201cIf we do not have enough things to do, even if we will feel happy just sitting, watching films and drinking, it will be a very stupid existence. It will soon get dire.\u201d \u2026 This journalist doesn\u2019t even imagine a world without money and work where people can enjoy doing nothing and yes play and watch movies but also meditate, dance, sing, etc. It\u2019s what people do in monasteries. For him, people without a stupid work have a \u201cvery stupid existence\u201d. No room for meditation and spiritual life in his mind. Working 12h a day just for money, this is the really stupid existence.<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n

Technologies linking human consciousness to any sort of a cloud computing service could not just open the way for totalitarian mind control, but destroy the very essence of human relations, philosopher Slavoj Zizek says.<\/p>\n

A computer that can read the thoughts of many people at once would make normal human life impossible, the Slovenian cultural philosopher told RT in the wake of the World Artificial Intelligence (AI) Conference in Shanghai, which saw Alibaba\u2019s chairman Jack Ma and Tesla CEO Elon Musk clashing over the future of AI.<\/p>\n

While the two technopreneurs engaged in a heated discussion over the possibility of humans being controlled by machines in the future, the senior researcher at the Institute for Sociology and Philosophy at the University of Ljubljana shared his thoughts on the issue with RT.<\/p>\n

Our brain being connected to a machine is not a utopia<\/p>\n

What I am studying now is the so-called phenomenon of wired brains, a possibility of our brains being connected with strong digital machines. And that is not a utopia. In the media lab at MIT, Massachusetts, they already have simple machines like that. It is like a helmet, nothing intrusive, they put it on your head.<\/p>\n

And then something horrible happens – I saw the video – you think certain thoughts, you do not say anything, and the machine reproduces them either in writing or with artificial voice.<\/p>\n
