Sounds Like Control Dystopia to ME!

If one is paying attention, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the believed breakthrough invention about to make life easier or simpler for human existence. Seriously, the joy expounded about AI potential stretches in apparent agreement on the political spectrum from Left-to-Right.
I am not on board with that AI joy.
On Social Media comments I receive input that ranges from nice people explaining that an AI cannot exceed its programming to vicious people calling my AI dissent delusional.
As I have stated in the past my concerns about Artificial Intelligence are admittedly shaped by an affinity to science fiction reading. Add to the SyFy dystopianism a good dose of Christian End Times/Last Days reading from the Holy Bible and Christian authors.
With that piece of an intro I found a post by Michael Snyder at the New American Prophet that yet AGAIN has awakened my AI concerns. It is entitled, “Implantable Brain-Computer Interfaces Are Here, And They Are A Giant Step Toward The Dystopian “Digital Prison” Society The Elite Have Planned For Us”.
Snyder writes about the apparent impending technology in which an AI implant is attached surgically on top of the brain (as opposed to inside) to create a human-Internet interface. THIS SOUNDS LIKE MARK OF THE BEAST STUFF TO ME!
Here is an excerpt from Revelation Chapter 13 Amplified Classic Bible:
4 They fell down and paid homage to the dragon, because he had bestowed on the beast all his dominion and authority; they also praised and worshiped the beast, exclaiming, Who is a match for the beast, and, Who can make war against him?
5 And the beast was given the power of speech, uttering boastful and blasphemous words, and he was given freedom to exert his authority and to exercise his will during forty-two months (three and a half years).
6 And he opened his mouth to speak slanders against God, blaspheming His name and His abode, [even vilifying] those who live in heaven.
7 He was further permitted to wage war on God’s holy people (the saints) and to overcome them. And power was given him to extend his authority over every tribe and people and tongue and nation,
8 And all the inhabitants of the earth will fall down in adoration and pay him homage, everyone whose name has not been recorded in the Book of Life of the Lamb that was slain [in sacrifice] [a]from the foundation of the world.
[Footnotes
a. Revelation 13:8 Alternate translation: “recorded from the foundation of the world in the Book of Life of the Lamb that was slain [in sacrifice].”]
11 Then I saw another beast rising up out of the land [itself]; he had two horns like a lamb, and he spoke (roared) like a dragon.
12 He exerts all the power and right of control of the former beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell upon it to exalt and deify the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed, and to worship him.
13 He performs great signs (startling miracles), even making fire fall from the sky to the earth in men’s sight.
14 And because of the signs (miracles) which he is allowed to perform in the presence of the [first] beast, he deceives those who inhabit the earth, commanding them to erect a statue (an image) in the likeness of the beast who was wounded by the [small] sword and still lived.
15 And he is permitted [also] to impart the breath of life into the beast’s image, so that the statue of the beast could actually talk and cause to be put to death those who would not bow down and worship the image of the beast.
16 Also he compels all [alike], both small and great, both the rich and the poor, both free and slave, to be marked with an inscription [[a]stamped] on their right hands or on their foreheads,
17 So that no one will have power to buy or sell unless he bears the stamp (mark, inscription), [that is] the name of the beast or the number of his name.
18 Here is [room for] discernment [a call for the wisdom [b]of interpretation]. Let anyone who has intelligence (penetration and insight enough) calculate the number of the beast, for it is a human number [the number of a certain man]; his number is 666.

Michael Snyder’s post does NOT paint a picture of AI Joy! RATHER this imminent future is one of CONTROL by Corporations, Governments, Globalists or evil combinations thereof!

Implantable Brain-Computer Interfaces Are Here, And They Are A Giant Step Toward The Dystopian “Digital Prison” Society The Elite Have Planned For Us

Would having your brain connected to the Internet 24 hours a day be heaven, or would it be hell? Today, a very large portion of the population is seemingly glued to their phones or their computers much of the time. But soon implantable brain-computer interfaces will allow those people to stay connected to their devices all the time. Apple has partnered with a shadowy tech company known as “Synchron” to develop a “brain implant that allows users to operate digital devices by thinking”…
Imagine controlling an iPhone or MacBook with nothing but thoughts. It may sound far-fetched, but Apple’s latest partnership suggests it could be closer than we think.
The tech giant has teamed up with neurotechnology firm Synchron, developing a brain implant that allows users to operate digital devices by thinking — no typing, tapping or swiping required.
Interestingly, it is being reported that Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates are both involved with Synchron…
According to the Wall Street Journal, Apple is partnering with Synchron—a privately held, New York City-based company backed by Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates—on the in project. The brain-computer interface, or BCI, industry is projected to grow significantly over the coming decades. Perhaps the best-known player in the space is Elon Musk’s Neuralink, which, as of January, has successfully implanted its devices in three people.
Unlike Neuralink’s brain-computer interface, Synchron’s device is not actually implanted inside the brain.
Instead, it is actually located on top of the brain…
Unlike Neuralink’s N1 implant, Synchron’s stent-like device, called the Stentrode, is implanted on top of the brain, not inside of it, which allows users to avoid an invasive open brain implant procedure. Once placed, the Stentrode works by using its electrodes to read brain signals and translate them into on-screen navigation and icon selection.
The way that they get Synchron’s device on top of the brain is by implanting it into the jugular vein and then navigating the device “into a blood vessel near the brain’s motor cortex”…
At the core of this breakthrough is a technology known as a Brain-computer interface (BCI). This system allows a person to control a device using their brain activity, without the need for muscle movements. Synchron’s device, called the Stentrode, is implanted via the jugular vein and navigates into a blood vessel near the brain’s motor cortex.
“This is transformative,” said Synchron CEO Tom Oxley. “We use the blood vessels as a natural highway into the brain, lacing them with electrodes that record activity. That platform becomes like Bluetooth for your brain, letting you control a device without needing a keyboard or mouse.”
A lot of people will find this preferable to having the sort of open brain surgery that is required for other brain-computer interfaces.
Of course I will never be allowing anyone to implant anything inside of me under any circumstances, and I am sure that most of you feel the exact same way.
But this is where things are going.
The goal is to create a dystopian “digital prison” society in which as many people as possible are connected to the Internet for as long as possible.
Even if you choose not to participate, you will not be able to escape it.
We are being told that soon millions of people will be wearing AI glasses that will be constantly gathering information on everyone and everything that they are pointed at…
The real revolution — and the real threat — lies in what comes next: Meta’s AI glasses. Sunglasses, spectacles, whatever you want to call them — they look like something out of a sci-fi flick. But they’re real, and they’re here. Very soon, millions or perhaps tens of millions of people will be walking around with them on. And you might not even know it.
These aren’t just toys. They’re tools — and weapons. They comprise a camera, microphone, an AI interface and internet access, all embedded discreetly in eyewear. They are capable of recognizing faces, interpreting language, overlaying information in real-time and collecting vast swaths of data as their owners simply walk down the street. They can whisper comprehensive summaries about the stranger across the subway, translate foreign speech in real time, suggest pickup lines, record interactions without consent and overlay reviews of a restaurant before you’ve even looked at the menu.
All this is done without lifting a phone or typing a word. These glasses are not just watching the world. They are interpreting, filtering and rewriting it with the full force of Meta’s algorithms behind the lens. And if you think you’re safe just because you’re not wearing a pair, think again, because the people who wear them will inevitably point them in your direction.
Can you imagine what our society will be like once we get to that stage?
Cameras and microphones that are connected to the Internet will constantly be pointing at everyone and everything all the time.
Privacy will essentially be a thing of the past.
Of course that is exactly what the elite want.
They envision a time when the “digital world” will be more important than the “real world”.
And they also envision a time when basically all commerce will be conducted using digital currencies…
Philip Lane, chief economist of the European Central Bank, recently expressed urgency for the need to develop a digital euro—also known as a central bank digital currency (CBDC)—to compete against stablecoins such as Tether and electronic payment systems developed by U.S. tech firms, such as Google Pay and Apple Pay. Not content with eliminating cash, now the goal of central banks is to eliminate any competing electronic payment system.
We’re sleepwalking into a world with digital currencies without any government coercion whatsoever. As a 51-year-old Generation Xer, I carry lots of cash in my wallet. I teach personal finance at the local university and recently asked a class of about 30 students if any of them had any cash. Not one of them had a single bill or coin on them. They use debit cards, credit cards, Venmo, and Apple Pay. As it turns out, cash usage among the 18–24 age cohort has declined from 28 percent to 13 percent over the last five years. Most like the convenience of electronic payments, even though studies show that people spend 12 percent to 18 percent more when using credit cards than cash. If the government does attempt to implement a digital dollar, there will be little resistance to it.
In such a system, tyrannical governments would be able to watch, track, monitor and control all transactions.
If you are a troublemaker, you could have your “digital privileges” suspended or you could even be banned from the system entirely.
So how would you survive if you were unable to buy, sell, get a job or have a bank account?
We are living in very strange times, and the “digital prison” that they are constructing all around us is becoming more suffocating with each passing day.
