Perspectives on Education, Work, Health, and Economy in the Technocratic Age

As technologies across all fields grow in complexity, humans adapt, becoming more specialized to find a niche in the machine. This inverted operating system presents fundamental questions...

Is it possible to understand the nature of the whole when immersed in details? Is this deep-but-narrow strategy to our benefit, and where is it taking us?

What is education's highest purpose — to permit entry into fields that pay top dollar, or to challenge the developing mind and hone a toolset for analytical thinking and creative expression?

The more we come to rely on authorities and cartels to provide essential information and basic necessities, the more we imperil our autonomy and become dependent upon influences of unknown origin, competence, and intent. This becomes apparent as the cost we bear for things we could have handled on our own or had at low cost before the "NewEconomy" was rolled out grows heavier by the day (eg. organic food, fixable cars, profound knowledge).

And now we stand at the precipice of probably the biggest transformation in human history... Artificial Intelligence, advancing undirected in leaps and bounds and now seeming to've acquired the ability to teach itself. No one knows where it's going, but it's going there fast. As usual, nothing of such significance will be put to a vote, so it's best to take this beast by the horns as AI is on track to displace or reconfigure about every job out there once it's paired with robotics.

 

If you're seeking alternative modes of education, work, economics, and/or health, this site will be cataloging intertwined perspectives from all corners and ages.

The ultimate goal is to help people find their unique purpose which always resides at our core but often gets buried by civilization and needs some digging to uncover. Having clear purpose results in radically better lives which propagate over a constructive wave of optimism and good will, then BOOMcritical mass achieved and spiritual evolution unfolds.

That may sound preposterous, but think about it... the upside of all this tech is that once isolated souls are connected like never before, and there are currently millions of souls working on creating this new world from different angles. All we need do is tune out the circus and reengage our inherent intuition that comes pre-installed upon entry into this realm.

Your genome has never been before and never will be again - you are completely unique and you exist to express your singularity in the universe at this very time. We all know this, but when we take a moment to stop and think about it, that reality takes on a transcendent power.

This great shift in consciousness is inevitable as light can do nothing but conquer darkness. Let's open the floodgates on our watch.
