Technology is Taking Over. Grave Danger Imminent!

in #writing7 years ago (edited)

Technology is taking over. Many of the world's brightest minds such as Elon Musk are warning that it will threaten our very existence as a species.

The 20th century saw the birth of the personal computer. It started out as a way to easily store files and play missle attack. Now it wants to kill you, your kids and fuck your wife

Technology has enabled terrorists to talk and coordinate strikes on the go with the birth of the cellular telephone. They can also order Domino's while on the bus and have it ready when they get home, thanks to these modern pieces of telecommunication

Everyday our push towards Artificial Intelligence
and more advanced fuck machines puts our future in jeapordy. I read a story in the National Inquirer that said Tim Cook wants to put chips in our brain so we can more easily access the app store!

Everyday were losing more ground to advanced technology. How long before it learns to betray us? We've already put most of our emergency systems and utilities in the trust of super computers.

Humans are even losing the ability to feed ourselves. We have chicken breasts you can cook in a toaster, we can't even make juice anymore we need $400 machines

Ok that one isn't threatening us anymore it went out of business once people realised you can just squeeze the bags yourself. But how long until the next juice machine is built that wants to take us out? I say 3 weeks tops

We have to be careful here people, if you won't listen to a genuis like Mr. Musk, that's saying humans are in great danger perhaps you'll listen to this trusted source?

That's Estelle Getty, the former Golden Girl that was once using an electronic can opener and said, "how do you work this thing?" I think you can read between the lines?..

We're doomed

Thanks for reading!

Thanks for the post.

I tend to fall on the side of guys like Diamandis who are optimistic about technology and the good for humanity. Let us not forget, a lack of technology makes it easy to control the masses (slavery). It is only through the advancements in the last 50 years that we are lowering the amount of people enslaved around the world...including those in first world nations.

Your point is taken. I wonder if or when the gird goes down what will we do.

Good post which makes plenty of sense.

I have been writing about information and communications technology for various publications for 23 years now and when I see how people have become so glued to their smartphones and know them backwards yet do not know how to wire up an electrical cable to a plug properly, it kind of gets me worried for the future generation.

I recently have made a conscious effort to spend less time on my PC and fix some broken things around the house.

Somewhat semi-retired, I set up a blog in 2012 to rant and rave about my feelings about the hype, hoohah, BS and ballyhoo by ICT industry boosters, new media CON-sultants and cyberutopians.

As John Perkins said, "If you're retired, you cannot be fired".

Guys I was only joking but I'm getting serious responses? Oh well I'll take the views! 🙌

I would listen to Estelle Getty over Elon Musk any day of the week.

Lol sometimes she talks to me in my dreams. The wet ones feature Blanche Deveruax 😝 My parents watched that show lol

BTW out of curiosity, what kind of return do you get on all the different upvote services? Just curious if you've calculated it out or anything.

Minnowbooster is the best. None of them are good but it makes it look like ppl are actually viewing my posts.. and I'll get 2.5 more views per post haha

humans are now being replaced by artificial intelligence robots. some day, all workers will lose their jobs.

I'm pretty sure the scientology aliens will take over before AI. And I for one welcome our new overlords. Hail Xenu, bringer of Tom Cruise, master of the volcanoes or something.🙌

Seems legit

True don't forget the Gremlins also
