Imagine, you end up synthesizing a Species, & you witness it how it evolves as an experiment. Your expectations are high from such super-intelligent being because, of course, it’s a well-crafted machine. But the lifestyle of that species too ends up restricting to: earning meals three times a day, building box house(s), expanding families (what today's elite / rich / lower-middle-upper middle class / poor / destitute are doing). What would you call it? Indeed, a waste of highly Intellectual Machine, Knowledge & Species in the Universe! Presumed!
As
this routine has been followed in the Jungle as well by Animals. And so as by
homo-sapiens, who’re extended versions of animals. In jungles, it’s understandable,
because minds of animals failed to evolve. But, a well-crafted human-machine restricted
to this, is beyond comprehensible! Alas, such evolution can’t be avoided too,
else it would an end to an Individual as well. No academia, no medical care, no
society, no life!
Both
the left & right, capitalism & communism (that made almost all of the human machines mere laborers in fear of being consumed by boredom), & further today’s liberals are complicit! For
the left, poverty became evolution. For right, more vernacular. For today’s liberals;
well, no idea where they fit in any evolutionary cycle! Politicians put posters
of Meals during elections, as they feel proud for, & as a human machine,
doing this. And so as the mainstream, who juggles between sad to success
stories or vice versa, as that’s the meal for the minds of billions
of machines!
If
you can’t be proud of your own invention, or let’s call it creation cum
evolution, of the species restricted to the selfsame lifestyle of what social
animals have followed for millennia; then how is it that human-machine deserve
to unlock the truth of (multi) universe, cosmos? As rather evolving, their own
footprints everywhere would restrict the mind & body mere to this societal evolution
confined to convenience, which alas, they all are proud of!
