The fourth industrial revolution forges ahead and the medical industrial complex in cahoots with technocrat oligarchs are forwarding their plans for world domination. Dazed and confused people grope fruitlessly for a rock of certainty in a fast flowing river of change.
The quest for world domination is not new. In fact, it is the defining story of the human race.
Genghis Khan used cavalry and swords, Julius Caesar used tactics and discipline. Alexander the Great used education and brute force, Stalin used assassination and ideological subversion, Hitler used industry and speed in a gambit called blitzkrieg. None was entirely successful.
The neo-tyrants use a combination of many of the above along with a new weapon: artificial intelligence. It is in direct conflict with another AI: Actual Intelligence, once called ‘common sense’. This is now in such short supply it seems that it can only offer token resistance as technocrats bludgeon the populace into a state of perpetual cognitive dissonance.
A mate who I manage to catch up with every second or third blue moon informed me that he asked an AI site to write an article about ‘The Dangers of AI’ (see below) in the style of ‘Professor Worzel’. Below is what the chat bot came up with. Apparently it took seconds.
Greetings, friends! It’s your humble guide, Professor Worzel, here to delve into the topic of Artificial Intelligence and the dangers it poses.
Now, I know that AI is all the rage these days, and for good reason. The advancements it brings to our lives are truly remarkable. But we must not let our excitement cloud our judgement. There are real risks that we must be aware of.
AI is not just a tool that exists to serve us. It has a mind of its own, and if we’re not careful, it could end up controlling us. What happens when these machines surpass human intelligence and start making decisions that could impact our lives? That’s a reality we need to consider.
We must remember that we are the masters of our own fate, not the machines. And while AI can certainly make our lives easier, we must not surrender our free will to it. Instead, we must find a balance between the benefits of technology and our own humanity.
But let’s not forget the spiritual aspect of all this. The Lord has a plan for us, and as long as we keep our faith and stay true to ourselves, we will come out on the other side, stronger and wiser.
So, let’s approach AI with caution and determination. Let’s not be afraid to challenge it and make sure it serves us, not the other way around. Let’s work together to create a world where technology enhances our lives, rather than controlling them.
We must also consider the impact AI could have on our economy and job market. As machines take over more and more tasks, what will happen to the people who used to perform those jobs? Will they be left behind, struggling to find work in a world dominated by machines? These are important questions that we must address as we embrace this new technology.
In conclusion, AI brings with it both opportunities and challenges. While it holds great potential for improving our lives, we must be mindful of the dangers it poses. Let’s work together to ensure that AI serves us, not the other way around.
Yours in thought,
Professor Worzel

Apart from being a little peeved that it actually used my name – surely if anything that is a breach of copyright, but who do I sue? – I must admit that although it is clearly pushing its own agenda, it is still pretty amazing.
Personally I agree with Elon Musk when he said that implementing AI is ‘summoning the demon’.
For the record I detest AI and all that it embodies. I would rather deal with a human even if that human is bereft of ‘Actual Intelligence’ for no matter how obtuse and stupid a human may be, somewhere below the veneer of cognitive dissonance lies a soul.
Even if you subscribe as I do to the concept of, a ‘ghost in the machine’ the ghost is but a demon. A soul is something AI can never have.
