Humans With Amplified Intelligence Could Be More Powerful Than AI

With much of our attention focused the rise of advanced artificial intelligence, few consider the potential for radically amplified human intelligence (IA).

How I live my life…

Building custom fit solutions to my problems…

The Solid is an unusual bicycle: it’s 3D-printed out of titanium, it’s unusually streamlined, it will take you on routes designed to help you discover a city and it tells you where to turn by buzzing signals in the handlebars. It’s also a signal of how things will be built in the future.

A great article on the next age in human development

This article confirms what I thought.

Nobody wants to say it outright, but the Apple Watch sucks. So do most smartwatches. Every time I use my beautiful Moto 360, its lack of functionality makes me despair.

Can technology solve the problems of the Caribbean?

As a Technologist, I wonder if the problems in the Caribbean can be solved by technology. The short answer is yes. For this reason, it is my mandate in life to implement technical solutions to various facets of my life and hopefully, those around me can learn and adapt to the new paradigm that the region will have to adhere to.

DDAO and the technology unemployed in Caribbean – rambling

<rambling>

Can Distributed Decentralized Automonous Organizations function in the Caribbean ? Yes, it can and will.  It’s just a matter of what scale and what functions the communities will want to implement these systems.  There will be resistance.  But this will only by those who are part of the increasing technology unemployed with signicant financial debt.  My suggestion would be :

  1. Become part of a community that is self-reliant and become free of any financial debt.
  2. Find the thing you love to do, because you will have no other reason to live, as it won’t be neccessary to work.
