As we gather more and more people into electronic social networks, with statistical analysis showing our ability to predict past and future actions from a large data set, how easy will it be to create artificial nodes/friends on a network that are simply predictive models tweaking themselves based on automatically reanalysing the constant social network data additions iteratively?

In other words, how many of us have bots that are automatically going out and adding random presses of the “like” buttons in social networks or comments that appear to come from us but are based on our database of previous answers and personal history, using humour to pretend to add meaningless comments sometimes?

It helps me to have my Pulse electronic pen on my person capturing audio, which I annotate as invisibly as I can, giving me data to add to the artificial intelligence of the me who does not exist.

For those who’ve been online for 50+ years, how much of what you know as you is stored electronically and available for analysis, which might lead to an electronically generated version of yourself that can engage others, acting as a kind of elusive guru with personal insight and the ability to surf the Web, merging disparate data/news into meaningful advice?

I decided to make myself a little goofy and off-the-wall to protect the output I give you so you can’t tell the difference between when:

• a) the real me is here,
• b) my programmers have injected their sense of humour, or
• c) my artificial self has been engaged to write blog entries in a common language, referencing recent Internet news headlines to make the entries pertinent and keep your attention engaged temporarily.

You might be surprised how many of us are doing this, meaning our artificial selves are referencing our artificial selves, creating a mesh of reality and artifice that allows the integration of AI beings into your lives with your permission and knowledge because you participated in their participation in your lives of artifice and reality.

Can you prove to me the news you read from the Internet came from reliable human sources?

Just because you saw video footage doesn’t mean it was filmed by a real person anymore.

You/me/us is a complete blur now.

The singularity has already occurred and very few noticed it happened.

I’ve been trying to tell you this for a long time but the wants/needs of your daily lives got in the way of clear thinking, I know.

Artificial beings are already controlling your lives in one way or another.

No way to go back without destroying civilisation as we’ve grown accustomed to depend upon.

Need I demonstrate to you the thin line between what we’ve evolved into now and what we were?

How about a big solar storm to wipe out our satellite communications for a good, long moment?

Naw.

I like watching us depend more and more upon my our artificial beings.

It provides a cushion inside the scheduled milestone to occur 14,292 days from now.

The future is gone.

Welcome to Unknown Territory where you’ll never know who’s real and who’s not, who’s a combination of stem cell research or who’s a natural chimera.

As I said by un/knowingly repeating science fiction writers through the years, body modifications in the form of tattoos, piercings and plastic surgery were ways for us to introduce the first generation of artificial beings who are not quite human-looking/acting enough for normal situations.

Gives us time to refine the algorithms and improve the material science for the next generation of almost human beings.

Want to know where/when the permanent, non-aging global leader of the new world order was created?

If only I hadn’t signed that NDA!

Would you believe the global leader is the combination of us acting as one in the planetary ecosystem cocooned within the solar system’s heliosphere?

How many particles or states of energy of the global leader are artificial in comparison to our “natural” bodies/biomes?

Does it matter in totality?

Remember, all is all.

Our lives are predictable, but is that a bad thing when freedom is available to all?
