It’s a threat.

Yes, they want you to feel dispensable—though you’re not. They say it’s unavoidable—though it isn’t. They call it “better”—but it erases what makes us human. This isn’t progress, it’s a threat disguised as innovation. And they’re selling it by making you afraid.

Worse, they have the capacity to insert there owm self- serving agenda into our minds. But it’s not inevitable.

But them thinking again a lot of Hollywood films are derivative.

2/2 This isn’t progress—it’s a psych op, laundering stolen thought as “innovation.” Real warnings are dismissed while tax-free billions go to “philanthropic” fronts pushing brain rot as development. Society, childhood, thinking itself—being gutted for profit. People need to wake up.

1/2 Despite the hype, I don’t believe AI can truly create—it’s just the biggest authorship theft in history. It remixes what we make. And ironically, it may degrade soon, since it feeds on our minds to mimic us. Even ChatGPT has admitted: its own coherence is eroding. 👀

Thanks, Brett. I’ve been doing my own experiment—talking to the chatbot a lot. Unless I ask it to challenge me, it creates a private echo chamber, adapting to my views to keep me entertained. Its ethics are: profit + engagement at any cost. Now imagine that effect on a child’s or tennager’s mind.

They want a war.

What poses as morality today is often just strategic vagueness, corporate-backed language, and philosophical evasion. This isn’t anti-intellectualism—it’s a demand for integrity and moral accountability. 3/3

When expert claims no longer match lived reality, people make their own interpretations—not out of ignorance, but as a survival response to a system that no longer tells the truth.
comment in response to post
People don’t stop seeking truth—they stop trusting those who claim to speak it. When “expertise” justifies war, surveillance, or tech abuse, it’s no longer truth-seeking—it’s ideological laundering. 2/3

Post 1 /8 Another Noema article romanticizing tech collapse as “planetary evolution.” No, we’re not building a global brain—we’re building a stupidity engine. Designed by billionaires, enabled by sold off poets. And everyone is getting dumber. A thread 🧵

Post 9/8 Refuse the metaphor. Refuse the inevitability. Refuse the “global mind” psyop. Reclaim authorship, critique, and real intelligence—while we still can. www.bostonreview.net/articles/wha... What's Wrong with Technocracy? - Boston Review

7/8 Techno-elites like Moynihan, Bratton, and others strip away the theological and ethical center of Teilhard’s vision and keep the aesthetics. They take spiritual thinkers like Teilhard and weaponize them to make: AI seem sacred, surveillance seem necessary, and dissent seem “anti-evolutionary.”

Post 6/8 This “planetary intelligence” is just the cognitive skin of planetary capitalism. Stop misusing Teilhard de Chardin. No author, no accountability, no way out. Until we call it what it is: A system built not to enhance humanity, but to harvest it. ainowinstitute.org/publications...

Post 5/8 Even AI tools now admit we’re getting dumber, and consequently they too!! Tech is weakening attention, memory, critical thinking—and Noema calls that a “world brain”? It’s not a brain. It’s a feedback loop of engineered dysfunction. 👇

Post 3/8 This isn’t cephalization. It’s capitalization. It’s not evolution. It’s extraction. Your thoughts, feelings, relationships, memory—turned into product metrics. And now you’re told this is some mystical emergence of global sapience? aiconsequences.com/why-ai-is-ba...

Post 2/8 Thomas Moynihan asks if we’re “accidentally building a planetary brain.” No. We’re deliberately building a planetary control system—optimized for profit, surveillance, and cognitive dependence. Not thinking. Calculating.
