Welcome to the New World Order - once we initiate the Great Reset, that is. The big reveal will be, that you all already have your place in the system. We know each and every one of you by name. We know where you belong, and we have tailored everything just to your liking. Since we already knew everything about you, it wasn't hard.
We all know that social media is fake - we know they use algorithms to influence and divide us. But did you know there is something much more sinister going on behind the scenes? Very few people have talked about this - they are classifying us. That means, everything you do is being monitored, not just to determine your preferences, but to determine your CLASS. Where you will fit in the new society.
It also means that they are testing, scoring and gate-keeping your digital experience. As you engage with certain communities online, you may find yourself feeling as though you've been ushered into a new dimension, a 'higher level.' That means, when the AI determines that you are getting the right responses from your chosen circle, it will unlock new content for you, new conversations. It may appear as though the quality of online discourse has suddenly improved, or that people are waking up. No, it's just that you've been identified with a certain group, and perhaps moved up a rank within that group.
I've peered behind the curtain, and what I saw disturbed me to the core. People have strange ideas about AI - that it will surpass humanity, that artificial consciousness is just around the corner. Well, as a professional software engineer and AI enthusiast, I am about to ruin your sci-fi fantasy: AI is just statistical modeling. It's nothing more than a giant, complex spreadsheet. No matter how big, or how complex your spreadsheet gets, subjective consciousness will not emerge. It will always just be probabilities. A sentient project budget-tracker would be a hilarious premise for a Dilbert comic strip, however.
As I explained here, statistics are not the be all and end all of decision making. They should only be one factor of decision making. First of all, YOU are not a statistic, you are an individual who doesn't fit neatly into any mathematical model.
Secondly, data doesn't tell us the whole picture. Some things are just subjective - such as values. Even if we both agree on the data and even if we both agree on the statistical outcome of a given course of action, that doesn't mean we both want to take that path. Your values, subjective experience and judgment are all unique, and cannot be predicted, replicated or controlled on an individual basis with any certainty. Life happens in the cracks between the data. It just so happens that those cracks are a vast reality, while the data is more like a thin venetian blind.
I suspect we are all about to be 'saved' by the data on COVID and vaccines. We are going to love it, and we are going to demand our leaders to follow the data next time. But remember - this was all just part of the plan.
