That’s the good old family values. 👍

Even Nixon is a shining example compared to Trump.

It’s me!

More than that, there is no gap between the hair on my head and the hair on my feet.

Behold the most expensive money burner!

Russian asset, Agent Krasnov, declares war on a major American city.

Thiel shared his views on the Ten Commandments and identified which ones he believes are the most significant.

“The Ten Commandments, the two most important are the first and last on the list. The first commandment is, you should worship God,” Thiel reportedly told attendees. “The tenth commandment is, you should not covet the things that belong to your neighbor. In some ways, the first commandment is to look up, and the tenth commandment is you do not look around. And if you’re too much focused horizontally on all the people around you, that’s sort of the bad version you get caught up in.”

He’s such a hypocrite!

The greedy guy who owns a company that offers mass surveillance systems says that not looking around at your neighbors is one of the best virtues. LoL

The guy urgently needs to see a psychiatrist and a psychologist.

I don’t think it necessarily has to be that way. That’s what I’m trying to say.

Now if you ask me what I think would be most likely to happen I tend to agree with you. This technology is already beginning to develop in the wrong hands.

One thing is certain, it would be a huge transformation.

It might not be that different from using a social network like Lemmy, you wouldn’t necessarily have to be assimilated (in the sense of losing your identity), but you could more easily put yourself in someone else’s shoes, your experience would be augmented. In an ideal world this technology could give you access to my memories and give me access to yours, I would know everything about you and you would know everything about me (no privacy, yes, but no power imbalance either), lying would be pointless and we would be able to feel what each other feels in the way we feel.

A good part of Humanity’s problems are problems with language, communication, understanding others or rather the lack thereof. A technology like this could literally put us in other people’s heads and thus perhaps help us develop greater understanding and empathy, at least I have hope for this.

That said, I don’t trust the people running these companies to develop this with the benign long-term goal I’ve described. 🤣

On the other hand, if done correctly, we could become a federated hive mind and thus finally eliminate lying and achieve absolute empathy because we would be able to feel what the other feel as if it was us.

Ricin is natural and one of the most potent plant-produced poisons.
