who’s watching the watchers

The secular moral compass is all about doing what thou will while no one is watching. The Christian moral compass is doing the best all the time because God knows everything. Also no need for artificial intelligence when you can tap into Creator of everything and get the best knowledge.
Hey man, I don't know what to tell you. It is weird that Jack was asking me for my social security number because of an emergency.
Who's watching the watchers? Linux nerds, libertarians, anarcho-capitalists, Molotov-level anti-capitalists, White nationalists, Black nationalists, Jew-critical activists of all kinds, real philosophers, Bitcoiners, and other people of good will.
Let’s supervise the politicians first. Most crime will stop over night when the little guy watches his celebrity politicians hang from a rope in the public square.
The Chinese already reaching this dystopian time with almost complete control & surveillance of your daily life and it seems to be like a really horrible nightmare. Why the fuck don't these people think ahead 3 minutes before ushering idiotic surveillance ideas like this? Who in his right mind would increase the power of the state this massively? This approach has future digital totalitarian dictatorship written all over it. Every freedom loving person has to stand up to this. #Stayfree

This immediate assumption that we should do something because we can is frightening. People “solving problems” without regard for liberty. I guess this is what happens when you’ve had too many pitch meeting for your government/corporate contracts. “We should have nanobots injected into everyone so we can have early diagnosis and eased reporting to insurance companies. And give reduced rates for those consuming their quota of heart-healthy canola oil. blah blah blah blah…” I know people that think along these lines, and I feel like it may be too late for them. It’s like they’re overcome with cleverness and can’t let go of collectivist agendas. They may be worse than the nihilists that feel humans are innately evil and can’t be trusted. image
This is why democracy is meaningless and always leads to autocracy on a long enough period of time. You can't have a monopoly in any economic field, especially the defense one because it leads to this infinite recursion of who is watching the watchers.

How does he see all of this as a good thing? A police nanny state where every possible infraction is reported. People will be afraid to live.
I always find it crazy how people can describe dystopian societies, absolute dystopias AS SOMETHING GOOD. we're already living in most dystopian novels put together, and here's someone basically claiming that perhaps if we added a little more dystopia the world would become "better", this is crazy, literally crazy

I doubt there will be supervision on his island 🫢
Anyone who takes a tour of several neighborhoods in Santiago de Chile will be impressed by the level of surveillance achieved and the complacency with which privacy has been given up in exchange for supposed security. It is overwhelming.
In the world of #surveillance, we must always question those who hold power over our# information. "The Party seeks power entirely for its own sake. We are not interested in the good of others; we are interested solely in power." - George Orwell, 1984 #quotestr

Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
"Stargate" already rhymes with Watergate and many other scam-gates. Should've put more thought 💭 into naming!
The sheer irony of this post. Full circle and yes it is the Watchmen. They are appointed by God. You are easily one of the most *powerful* human beings on this planet. Also, among the most humble hence why you don’t embrace it. But you may be the only person in the world who can find out exactly what Starlite is. Why isn’t Elon on board with this? Is it personal because of his ongoing rift with Sam or is there something more nefarious at play? Perhaps, it’s both. Or maybe it’s all just speculation. “BUT IF THE WATCHMAN SEE THE SWORD COME, AND BLOW NOT THE TRUMPET, AND THE PEOPLE BE NOT WARNED; IF THE SWORD COME, AND TAKE ANY PERSON FROM AMONG THEM, HE IS TAKEN AWAY IN HIS INIQUITY; BUT HIS BLOOD WILL I REQUIRE AT THE WATCHMAN'S HAND.”~ EZEKIEL 33:6 image
Also, entropy. This is the unforeseeable & the unseen. The supernatural. It is the basic law of the universe that entropy must *always* increase.🧬🔬⚗️🔭🧪☄️🪐🤍 Question: Who governs the governors? Answer: Entropy ~ Frank Herbert “Just as the constant increase of entropy is the basic law of the universe, so it is the basic law of life to be ever more highly structured and to struggle against entropy.” ~ Vaclav Havel image
It’s all tied together. It’s a package deal.💥☣️ “The increase of disorder or entropy with time is one example of what is called an arrow of time, something that distinguishes the past from the future, giving a direction to time.”~ Stephen Hawking image

What I mean is that humans do not force other humans to do crimes via technological control. What I really mean is that since the technology is possible, every single thing that can do it needs to be destroyed for all of humans future. what i mean is #butlerianjihad

Open source AI is currently keeping up, not being more than a few months behind frontier model releases. Hope it continues that way.
