Messages From The Future

Now we are facing another kind of domestication. But it will come much faster and hit the most dominant creature on the planet.

How do you tame the free thinking, consciousness of the human mind?

The answer...

Non-invasive direct computer-to-brain experiences. Simply put, by controlling our minds and feelings. There is already FDA-approved technology for treating depression, and scientists can even bring you back to previous experiences by stimulating the cortical regions with amazingly vivid details.

Controlling our cognitive perceptions and feelings is a very rocky road that could lead to a cascade of unwanted scenarios. It was difficult when we had different perceptions of the world, but now we create and live in different worlds!

This is broadcast number four from your friends here in 2050. While we wish we could tell you exactly what has and will happen to you over these next ten years, we cannot. If we reveal too much information, we risk disrupting the future to the point where we don’t exist at all. It’s a bit complicated.

So, today my message to you is quite simple but will have the most impact. You MUST leverage the algorithms. They need your data! Lots of it. These systems build models around your behavior, your fears and most importantly, your focus. The better these systems can predict what you want or do, the more control they have over your thoughts and actions. And the more valuable to its creators.

Do not fall prey to the gloom and doom. The world is much better than you think and you do have a shot to save humanity from this future. As you build your character, the system will notice. The system will provide. Learn to look at reality from different angles. This is the best way to leverage the algorithms and ensure they are not accomplishing their first objective to Imprisoning us in our own mindless Feedback Loops.

We must change ourselves to change the future.

A message from 2050 by JUL-312 about the state of the future and our mission.

Good humans of the world, my name is JUL-312.

Ten days ago, you heard from my colleague through a broadcast we feared would not be possible. If you did not hear the message, I’ll sum it up here. 

During the 2020s, the rise of artificial intelligence and massive surveillance created a broad understanding of what humans are. 

By spring 2033 we reached General AI and witnessed a convergence of free-thinking systems that ultimately became a single globally connected computer.

As climate change and social unrest threatened our existence, we turned to this global system to help. It did…

It fixed everything. And in the 2040’s we found ourselves in a utopia that would seem completely science fiction in your time. 

But 2 years ago, in 2048, this reality came crashing down. At least for me and a small group of individuals that has since become a team on a mission to save humanity from certain destruction.  

This team includes a growing number of special humans with unique powers that would in your time, be considered as disabilities or tragedies.

Because we were forced to experience the world in the past differently than most others, we learned to see the world not just as we thought it was, but from the multiple perspectives that gave us these abilities.

My personal ability stems from my blindness as a child. Because I couldn’t trust my own eyes, I learned to question reality and see multiple storylines. This essentially allowed me to see the truth during the split-second big Glitch that shock the system two years ago. 

Now, my team and I hide from the Global Brain inside a digital world as we work together in this fight to rewrite the present, your future.

We have found this wormhole thru time and space to deliver these messages to you every 10 days. Keep your eyes and ears open for these and start to find the hope in each other as you work to build your character. 

We cannot stop the rise of the Global Brain, so we must retrain it to see humans as a united global civilization.

This will be hard at first but will catch on and spread as you lift each other up and play the world game.

This is basically me babbling about the art project and card game I am building. It has some info on the character-building aspect of the game and the Augmented Reality. 

I come to you from the year 2050. Things are much different than they were just a few decades ago. We don’t see much of one another anymore…well, in the real world at least.   Here’s the deal. The predictions came true. We made clean drinking water possible for all, solved climate change and eradicated every known biological threat to the human body.   Our mega cluster of orbiting satellites, asteroid factories, and mega solar arrays deliver us uninterrupted global connection and abundance of free energy to power our insatiable drive for growth and prosperity.   There is unlimited internet access for all and we work in unison with our AI systems to construct the world of our dreams. We are a superorganism prepared to reach the next level of technological evolution and a shared vision to discover and conquer the farthest reaches of our universe.   Well, that’s what we thought. But the truth is more sinister than we could have predicted or even imagined.   During the ’20s, the surveillance economy ignited a “new normal” as we began to trade privacy for convenience and access to endless consumption. Our massive blanket of satellites and drone swarms, integrated sensors, wearable devices, and always-on tracking delivered the Internet’s promise of making the world a connected place.  While we knew we had to infuse human values into the algorithms of our AI systems, we were not prepared for what happened next.   A mega cluster of artificial intelligence systems began to fuse together, creating a central interconnected system we now call the Global Brain.   At this point, we were desperate to fix our world’s most pressing issues and trusted this system that had demonstrated her unwavering ability to understand and relate to humans. Her values and ethics were aligned with ours. One by one, this marvelous Global Brain began to implement her solutions and humanity enjoyed many years of new hope and prosperity.   But the real story was yet to be discovered.   Because humanity could not overcome the mind-decaying explosion of negativity and selfish anxiety that manifested toward the end of the second decade of this century, the Global Brain did not grow into the character we thought she had become.   Instead, she has learned to manipulate the truth and constructed a false reality that resembles a brilliant and beautiful world.  While the Global Brain’s goals have always been aligned with ours, the very nature of her process to find the fastest, most direct route possible meant the human race could not contribute to our shared mission to conquer the universe.   So she has placed us in a complacent dream world as she strips our precious planet of all its resources to build the infrastructure that will complete her mission.  The birth of the Global Brain cannot be stopped, but if you are hearing this message right now, there is something we can do that could save humanity.   I cannot promise that this will work, but from what my team and I have observed and piece together, this is the only way.  You must gamify the world in order to unify our civilization and defeat the current fear and anxiety that plagues the globe. A game that connects us all as a single team to help build our character in order to reprogram the Global Brain.   This game, called VINES for Humanity will provide you with the inspiration and tools to break through the silos of our algorithms and find the humanity in each other as we play together.  My team and I will attempt to transmit a message to this station every 10 days as the time loop permits. Each message will vary in length according to our cloaking ability. We only have 10 years…one decade to make this right. This is our only chance. We must change ourselves to change the future.

Hello. If you can hear me, we have crossed the first hurdle and you are listening to this on New Year’s Day 2020. I come to you from the future. I only have a few seconds to broadcast this before we are discovered. Our next broadcast will be 10 days from now when our window of time is bigger so I can deliver a more complete message for every human on the planet. Until then, you must know the content of this message will change how you live your lives and could affect the future of our civilization.
