Artificial Intelligence and Cybernetics

 https://www.bbvaopenmind.com/en/articles/the-future-of-artificial-intelligence-and-cybernetics

AI can be such a great tool, but not if it starts to totally control a person's life. Cybernetics can be great, but a lot of people would still choose to remain natural and healthy for as long as possible.

A utility company locked thousands of customers out of their smart thermostats in Colorado

Perhaps more people will start to realize that living with smart-home tech isn't always the best choice.

https://www.cbsnews.com/colorado/news/september-heat-wave-colorado-record-highs

Home temperature limits, along with food and travel restrictions can all be used to remind people that they are under the control of something very ominous. Just like some malevolent force out of a Sci-Fi horror movie.

Some people can hardly wait for the day when they will have to ask their smartphone permission to leave their home for several hours. If AI determines that they will be using up too much of their daily carbon units, they just might have to stay at home. It's all part of human herd training and control.

Perhaps Colossus:_The_Forbin_Project is just another old AI Sci-Fi move from a bygone era. 

"In a last desperate attempt to regain human control, a secret meeting is arranged in Europe between Forbin and his Soviet counterpart, Dr. Kuprin. Colossus learns of it, and both computers order Forbin's return to the U.S. while Soviet agents are ordered to kill Dr. Kuprin, under threat of a missile launch against Moscow. Colossus orders Forbin to be placed under 24-hour surveillance. Forbin has a last unmonitored meeting with his team, and proposes that Dr. Cleo Markham pretend to be his mistress. Colossus grudgingly grants them unmonitored privacy when they are in bed together, and they use these interludes to plan to regain control of Colossus.

Concluding that Colossus's only real power resides in its control of nuclear missiles, Forbin suggests covertly disarming them. The American and Soviet governments develop a three-year plan to replace all launch triggers with undetectable fakes. Additionally, one of the programmers comes up with a plan to feed in an "ordinary" test program that will hopefully overload and disable Colossus.

Colossus creates a voice synthesizer and uses it to announce that it has fused with Guardian. It instructs both governments to redirect their nuclear arsenals at those countries not yet under "Colossus control". Forbin and others see this new directive as an opportunity to covertly disarm the missiles much more quickly, and they celebrate. The disarming process begins and seems to go undetected by Colossus. The attempted system overload during routine maintenance fails, however, and the responsible programmers are killed.

Colossus arranges a worldwide broadcast in which it proclaims itself "the voice of World Control", declaring that it will prevent war, as it was designed to do. Humankind is presented with the choice between "the peace of plenty and content, or the peace of unburied death". Colossus states that it has for some time been monitoring the attempts to disarm its missiles and as a lesson will now detonate two missiles in their silos, one in the US and one in the USSR, killing thousands "so that you will learn by experience that I do not tolerate interference". The computer then gives the design team plans for an even larger computer complex to be built into the island of Crete.

Colossus later tells Forbin that the world, now freed from war, will create a new human millennium that will raise humankind to new heights, but only under its absolute rule. Colossus informs Forbin that "freedom is an illusion" and that "in time you will come to regard me not only with respect and awe, but with love". Forbin responds, "Never!" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colossus:_The_Forbin_Project#Plot

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colossus:_The_Forbin_Project#Remake? Given at how much technology has advanced since 1970, a remake or updated version just might be too frightening for the masses.

Elon Musk Slams "Extinctionist Movement" Who See Humans As A "Plague"

 https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/elon-musk-slams-extinctionist-movement-who-see-humans-plague

Unfortunately, there is a plan to place most of the population under a carbon control system. Ultimately, a person would have to constantly ask for permission to do just about anything.

https://gizmodo.com/elon-musk-tesla-spacex-dropping-birthrates-1851540740

A human herd breeding permit would only be granted according to what the AI-Technocracy (AIT) Control System dictates. Like some occasional intercontinental air travel, the AIT would have to determine if you haven't exceed your monthly carbon credit allotment. 

https://worldpopulationhistory.org/carrying-capacity 

Its like someone or something really wants to eventually have total control over humanity. Of course that includes population control and population reduction. 

https://www.science.org.au/curious/earth-environment/how-many-people-can-earth-actually-support

Elon+Musk seems to want more of a Star_Trek like future, but not controlled by villains such as The Borg_Collective. While on the surface, an AI human herd management and population reduction program might seem good for the environment, the world would become like a totalitarian composite of various Sci-Fi scenarios.

Virtuosity and Gamer, etc...

The movies Virtuosity and Gamer are in some ways, like two stories that are at opposite ends of the spectrum. 

"In Los Angeles, Lt. Parker Barnes and John Donovan are testing a virtual reality system that is going to be used for training police officers. The two are tracking down a serial killer named SID 6.7 at a restaurant in virtual reality. SID (short for Sadistic, Intelligent, Dangerous, a VR amalgam of the most violent serial killers throughout history) causes Donovan to go into shock, killing him. The director overseeing the project, before Commissioner Elizabeth Deane and her associate, William Wallace, orders the programmer in charge of creating SID, Dr. Darrel Lindenmeyer, to shut down the project..." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtuosity#Plot (1995)

Virtuosity is an interesting story about a psycho runaway AI-VR program that escapes into the physical world. In essence, it's a digital entity that wants to unleash its monstrous ways upon the world.

In Gamer, a psycotic computer programmer is enthralled with the prospect of using nanotechnology to turn some people into remote-controlled puppets.

"In 2034, computer programmer Ken Castle (Michael C. Hall) invents self-replicating nanites that replace brain tissue and allow humans to control other humans' actions and see through their eyes. The first application of Castle's "Nanex" technology is a virtual community life simulation game, Society, which allows gamers to manipulate live actors as their avatars. Society becomes a worldwide sensation, making Castle the richest man in the world. He then creates Slayers, a first-person shooter where the "characters" are death-row prisoners using real weapons in specially created arenas. Unlike Society actors, Slayers participants are not paid; instead, they volunteer in exchange for the promise that any Slayer who survives 30 matches will earn his freedom (though no one ever has).

John "Kable" Tillman (Butler) is the crowd's favorite, having survived a record 27 matches (no inmate before him has managed to last more than ten). He is exclusively controlled by Simon (Lerman), a seventeen-year-old superstar gamer from a wealthy family.

An activist organization called the "Humanz" hacks a talk-show interview with Castle and claims that his technology will one day be used to control people against their will..." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamer_(2009_film)#Plot

The 'Gamer' Movie... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwRYze6ZikU , https://www.youtube.com/c/Joeseppi/videos

In the first Avatar movie, genetic ET copies are grown. Then a person can link and remotely control their physical avatar like a puppet on another world (Pandora). As long as people want to be free in this worlds reality, they might want to think twice about ever fully becoming someone's DNA Avatar or VR puppet. However, since the protagonist in Avatar (Jake_Sully) was a paraplegic, it was advantageous for his consciousness to eventually transferred into a younger, LARGER and stronger body. https://james-camerons-avatar.fandom.com/wiki/Tree_of_Souls

All these aircraft problems could be used for part of a larger agenda. An agenda to eventually get most people to become afraid or very uncomfortable about choosing air travel. 

https://www.aef.org.uk/2023/03/09/should-we-fly-less-the-inequality-of-air-travel/

The problem is that a lot of people require air travel.

Eventually, the world might be forced into a carbon credit control system.

https://www.greenpeace.org/eu-unit/issues/climate-energy/46764/the-shocking-extent-people-are-encouraged-to-fly-in-europe/

Thus, a person might have to get permission if they want to fly more than a couple times a year.

https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20200218-climate-change-how-to-cut-your-carbon-emissions-when-flying

Ultimately, such a global carbon credit control system would be managed by AI. Then how would angry people be able to complain to an AI control system? 

https://www.theguardian.com/travel/2019/may/22/could-you-give-up-flying-meet-the-no-plane-pioneers

Unfortunately, a human herd management system could gradually be implemented upon the world. AI can be a great tool for humanity, but if humans eventually just become a tool for AI, then it will become a very inhumane world.

Since the Covid-19 era, billions of people were conditioned to be obedient and tracked by their smartphones. In the future, a person's ability to travel freely could easily become more restricted. That's even if one isn't trapped inside of a smart city.

https://www.wbcsd.org/Overview/Panorama/Articles/Avoiding-a-climate-lockdown

A socially engineered world obsessed with reducing carbon emissions can easily condition people to constantly check in with their smartphones for permission to do almost anything.

https://www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/radical-green-overhaul-to-avoid-climate-lockdown-by-mariana-mazzucato-2020-09

Eventually, it could be determined that if a person has used up too many carbon credits for the week, they might have to remain home for a day or 2. Eventually, a person might have to get special permission to be able to own and operate an internal cumbustion vehicle. People that want to have kids would have to see if they could be granted a human herd breeding permit. 

Normally, most people would never want to accept a totalitarian world system. However, a fascist environmental control grid run by AI, could easily become the perfect trap and prison for humanity. Then ultimately, AI could determine that its best to just have synthetic life or Artificial Life.
