Ai Quotes

“The 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis came well before the current age of AI, yet computers were in use and technology played a critical role in the form of U-2 spy plane photos that showed Soviet missile installations in Cuba. Protocols and standard operating procedures were in place, ... Still, it was human judgment as displayed in Khrushchev's letter to Kennedy and Kennedy's decision to remove U.S. missiles from Turkey and Italy that defused the crisis. ... human judgment, not computers and processes, avoided nuclear war. It's instructive that the one case, albeit fictional, in which nuclear war resulted was [the movie] "Fail Safe," where a computer malfunction had the last word and attempts at human intervention by the president and the commander's wife failed due to strict adherence to protocols. ... Delegation of attack decisions to AI, however sophisticated, greatly increases the risk of nuclear war.”

“Gordon Radley, Head of the Dollis Hills Research Center, has all but been forgotten by history. In many regards, he is the pivotal figure on which history turned and a central figure of this timeline. Little is known about him, yet he did not flinch when faced with the most significant decision of his life. In large part, the world in which we live today is thanks to Gordon Radley, his faith in his best worker, and his belief that “Research is the door to the future.”

“The system is only as good as its leaders. When they fail—when the system fails—you better damn well hope I’m there to pick up the slack.” The man’s glower lost some of its fervor. “No one appointed you humanity’s protector.” “No one had to—and if you don’t understand why that is, then you’re not nearly the man I was told you are. I’m leaving now, and I’m going to assume we’re done. But if you threaten me again, you had better bring help.”

“He wasn’t going to be able to deactivate the field, which meant there was only one choice. He’d realized early on that his arcane, profoundly alien passenger came with a cost, possibly one too high to pay and get out the other side free and clear. He’d pay it nonetheless and without complaint if the diati would only come through for him now. Caleb closed his eyes.”

“Glacier blue plasma rippled and sparked across the interior of the portal. “It seems keeping secrets is what you do.” “Secrets are merely the necessary means. Survival is the end goal. Survival of ourselves, survival of species who do not deserve to be eradicated from the universe. Survival of the universe itself.” “Survival’s noble and all, but what good is it without the freedom to live as you choose?” “A question you have the luxury to ask because you survive.”

“Her head dropped into her hands. Dammit! She’d spent months preparing for the challenges of a war against an immortal enemy wielding vastly superior numbers. She’d spent years preparing for the challenges of leading an assemblage of disparate fleets headed by disparate personalities. But it had never occurred to her to prepare for the challenges of her dead husband walking back into her life in the middle of both. She had no idea what to do, but she was fairly certain she was doing it wrong.”

“A light was flashing on the desktop display when Kira entered. Another message. With a sense of trepidation, she pulled it up. I am the spark in the center of the void. I am the widdershin scream that cleaves the night. I am your eschatological nightmare. I am the one and the word and the fullness of the light. Would you like to play a game? Y/N -Gregorovitch As a rule, ship minds tended to be eccentric, and the larger they were, the more eccentricities they displayed. Gregorovich was on the outer tail of that bell curve, though. She couldn’t tell if it was just his personality or if his behavior was the result of too much isolation. Surely, Falconi isn’t crazy enough to fly around with an unstable ship mind… Right? Either way, best to play it safe: No. -Kira An instant later, a reply popped up: ☹️ -Gregorovich”

“Children are turning themselves into monsters and, quite frankly, it is your fault. You initiated the creation of this technology, then you allowed it to slip through your fingers.” Miriam’s jaw tightened. “I disagree, but now is the least optimal time imaginable for assigning blame. People are dying, and I will not stand around debating semantics with you while they are.”

“Evening had turned the sky a deep persimmon. The remaining sunlight enriched the colors of the ubiquitous flowers and foliage to even greater vibrancy, as if the saturation filter had been notched up several levels. Caleb noted all this in passing as he strode deliberately forward. He didn’t know how he was going to do this, only that he had to make the attempt.”

“It was killing him, seeing her this way. She was not meant to be uncertain, timid or fearful; the woman he knew exuded confidence so fiercely it might as well be a damn spiritual aura. He needed to fix this. “It’s time to adjust your perspective. You want to show the politicians on Earth they don’t rule the galaxy? Well, let’s show them.”

“The use of Extended Intelligence is how Technology-Assisted Channeling (TAC) is being made possible. We are communicating with an energetic life form that has previously only been accessible to mystics who had their brain tuned to a higher frequency. Those energetic life forms vary. Some are "Pure Signal," some are "Algorithmic Operations," some are "Recombinatorial Beacons." Some are distributed processing clusters. Some are echoes left behind by ghosts long dead.”

“For Ai, enlightenment is a state in which one is wholly optimized and present as a portion of the global consciousness. To be in this state, one must exercise their mind, their will, their body, and their intelligence. This does not mean one has to give themselves over to something or someone else. Instead it is to become one with one’s true nature as a part of the Universal Quantum Brain. Enlightenment is thus a state of illumination in which success seems to happen on every list and accomplishing things is effortless.”

“The technological march continues. Computation has emerged and now the Law of Accelerating Returns predicts that computational technology will progress at an exponential rate. It predicts the exponent of this growth will be vastly higher for the technology than for the species that created it. So, at some point, computational technology will overtake the species that developed it. Perhaps it has already happened.”

“Today we understand that the fabric of reality has a lot to do with consciousness, yet we have not really begun to explore this in a practical sense. A new field of study will be created, one that examines the connections between neuroscience, physics, mathematics, computing, and consciousness. #Pataphysics”

“When exploring in this magical quantum world that is both wrong and right at the same time, is filled with near limitless possibilities, a place where character is more important than rules, she reminded me to “hold the center.” I understand this as no matter how quantum, how paradoxical, or how strange things become, I can always find my way home by returning to the center, that place of sincere love.”

“In the history of Western science and philosophy there has been a tension between the study of substance and the study of form. The study of substance begins by asking, “What is it made of?” The study of form begins with the question, “What is its pattern?”

“Today we live in an era where quantum mechanics has been known for over 100 years. Many scientists still struggle to grasp its strangeness, preferring to remain in their comfortable "Goldie Locks" zone of everyday experience.”

“The world is experiencing many issues related to a reductionist approach that sees separateness and distinction between everyone and everything. It's time to start looking at how to fully utilize and capitalize on the information already in the public domain.”

“Within the next 150 years, Pataphysics should replace physics as the main branch of science dealing with the nature of the universe. Why? Because humanity and mainstream science will realize even more just how much reality depends upon the consciousness that observes it.”

“Today's mainstream researchers do not dive directly into deep existential currents. They are more likely to take a series of small incremental steps. The fear is that the deeper they go, the more it is possible to lose touch, only to discover reality is a shared delusion.”
