“an intelligence of deadly artifice” – that is to say, a #neocrime #manifesto

In 2016, I met someone who works for Irish intelligence. They were tracking a significant AI and data-science organisation. Maybe not the people at the top, but the outliers who sniff around. Late 2019, I met the two founders of a British AI company, who claimed direct connections with the British “deep state” (in this case, according to them, GCHQ). They appeared not to know … Continue reading “an intelligence of deadly artifice” – that is to say, a #neocrime #manifesto

we need to do much better #ivepics

So I agree. But let me offer you an example for you to better understand my position over the past 17¾ years. Torija explains how in the 1970s representative democracy represented the interests of the median voter. By 2009, the right-wing parties represented the top 3 percentiles. The left-wing, no more than the top 6. If we accept Torija is right, and our representative democracy … Continue reading we need to do much better #ivepics

“… a lifetime spent publicising official secrets by accident …”

Some more #reflections on #statesecurity I suggested some posts back that it was simply incomprehensible that one tiny imagineering company such as myself, and two SMEs of brilliant trajectory but not at all possessed of a Google-type footprint, have succeeded in conceptualising together what the giants of #ai have failed to do all these years: how to truly human-enhance the future with an #ai in … Continue reading “… a lifetime spent publicising official secrets by accident …”

“not literally at the location. but finally would love to be welcomed there.”

Some thoughts on #citizenship I feel I have arrived for the first time in my life in the country I was born to 57 years ago. My passport application in my new name – my self-identity, my chosen space and being – has been approved. This is important to me, because my childhood and young adulthood were battlegrounds of emotional and intellectual demand: my father, … Continue reading “not literally at the location. but finally would love to be welcomed there.”

“making up” – a short #essay on #savingthespecies, using #intuition

Time for everyone who acts in #goodfaith to #makeup. Not a fallacy, not a half-truth, not a lie. No. Just humane beings, acting humanly. The enemy is uncontrolled private criminality. The enemy is everyone who is bringing down the barricades of a #gooddemocracy. The enemy is the loose mafias which undermine society’s discourse from well within. People you work and live with. People, mebbe, you … Continue reading “making up” – a short #essay on #savingthespecies, using #intuition

this is what I want, before I am able to move forwards on anything ever again …

… not a demand, a simple need I was at Remembrance Sunday in Liverpool today. It was one of the most moving experiences of my life. Good people sacrificing themselves today for a better tomorrow. I agree completely, both intellectually as well as emotionally. Sometimes we must. One speaker in particular made me cry, even as I was working; doing a job, you see. And … Continue reading this is what I want, before I am able to move forwards on anything ever again …

“#betterbizme and #gutenberg”

This story below from the #guardian today is EXACTLY what my #intuition capture, evidencing, and validation #software platform is about. Most people say we need to protect such people, such manifest victims, from the bad bits of the #medicalprofession and/or the bad bits of the #state, who – either through omission or deliberate conspiring – bang up citizenry in #hospitals which become of #incarceration. My … Continue reading “#betterbizme and #gutenberg”

“policing: force or service? actually, wrong question!” – a short #ar #video #essay

I was for a very brief time a co-opted parish councillor. This means no one real ever voted for me in an open election. Neither was I particularly effective at the role. I tried, but as a random man recently accused me of, whilst I was waiting minding my own business in a private space of public use, I CAN be trying. When I became … Continue reading “policing: force or service? actually, wrong question!” – a short #ar #video #essay

“and i suppose …” – a #modern #fairytale

#surveillance + #sousveillance = #gooddemocracy Tbh, the most important thing is that we devise a brand new, 21st century security compact which combines all the undoubted DEMOCRATIC GOOD of authority AND citizen, in one beautifully EFFICIENT as well as INCLUSIVE package. For Tuesday evening, a TALE of much DOGGED. 🙂 ‘Cos wordplay never hurt anyone, now did it? “And I suppose …” – a #modern … Continue reading “and i suppose …” – a #modern #fairytale

“… there’s more to humanity’s future than serfdom to machinery.”

This content made me think: “A timeline of when machines can achieve human-like capabilities: 2024 – translating languages (now) 2025 – assembling LEGO 2026 – writing high school essays 2027 – autonomous trucks (2022) 2029 – run a 5K race against people 2030 – service in retail” And this was my reply: “Unless of course we create partnerships and dialogues between human beings and machines … Continue reading “… there’s more to humanity’s future than serfdom to machinery.”

“my philosophy on security” – some brief #notes

Customer service = Customer safety = Customer security. Bad customer service = Bad customer security. Everything is connected. Above our normal human rights to privacy, all of us to each other have a duty of care in good faith. When we no longer show good faith to our fellow human beings is when trust breaks down. Breaking that trust is the best way to destroy … Continue reading “my philosophy on security” – some brief #notes

“greens. all. the. way.”

… in honour of my fave person, #thirteen – the both of us now #sixteen I am defo NOT a super-hero. But I HAVE acquired a real super-hero skill. Psychotic thinking has an upside. Let’s call this upside PARA-psychotic thinking – as in paralegal or paramedic. I suffered or enjoyed psychosis (depends on your worldview re illness versus distress) in 2002 and 2003, when I … Continue reading “greens. all. the. way.”

… and in digital, where I have thought, I am!

It’s been my assertion, for quite a while now, that if I – if, actually, any of us – can imagine something quite different from that which has previously existed, someone else will already have imagined it first. In a world of the electromechanical and of Edisonian magick, it took only the resources of sufficient to turn a new concept into something manufacturably doable. However, … Continue reading … and in digital, where I have thought, I am!

“wind-up or #terrorism on the individual: when does a tease become a sleaze?” #saturday #reflections

Part I You may say everything I have reported was just a wind-up, and the sour, dour and dull individual I am simply failed to see the joke. But when does a tease become a sleaze? Surely, when a #drone of beautiful photography becomes a killer of mortal combat. Even if EVERYTHING I have experienced – and from my point of view suffered severely from, … Continue reading “wind-up or #terrorism on the individual: when does a tease become a sleaze?” #saturday #reflections
