I want to thank all of you guys for sticking with me through this organic journey. Will try and keep this relevant to keep people coming back. The AKcidentalwriter 5/16/25
I am going to make a bold statement here with the advent of this continuous love affair with technology of the Digerati’s and now with the speed of heading to the ‘wedding altar’ with what is labeled artificial intelligence aka A.I. Humanity is heading to be a revolving startup! What A.I has shown so far is that innovation doesn’t last as long as it use to in our industrial past. This means you may have to startup all over again much quicker. The everyday person will have to be a visionary in this new environment. Having a vision that is concise and coherent is not something everyone can just wake up and do. Vision is harnessed in the realm of ideas.
The human masses will have to adapt and keep up because of the speed that A.I brings to the table! We are now in the ‘Alien Epoch’! This new economy is being led by by this alien not the human being. Now you will have to make adjustments to keep up because most likely others will make the adjustment and if you don’t you will be setting up yourself for failure and irrelevance. With expectations of constant availability, instant information recall, and the general ease of what is called content creation we all will have to deliberate what I will do?
I am going to state a few points after observation daily for the past two years:
a. Do not get comfortable something is coming on the horizon.
b. It is all in how you use the tech tools.
c. There is no more quote unquote innovation what has been called innovation since Napster has been parasitic. The human has become the product.
d. A.I will remove overhead and cost. This will alter budgets and how many things get done.
e. A.I creates opportunity but on the flip side A.I if anything takes away jobs/labor.
f. A.I does not can not alter the law of supply and demand! Which as I observe media does not get mentioned so I am doing so here and now.
g. A.I has created what I am labeling the F.O.C aka flood of content.
h. This epoch of algorithmic delivery of constant content requires little to no critical thought. I saw a statement from a London Financial Times Data Reporter John Burn Randolph which said.. The shift from articles (stuff that requires the reader to synthesize, make inferences and reflect) to more short self contained posts where everything is pre packaged in a few sentences, no critical thought required.
We are now in ‘the can’t focus syndrome’ beyond a short paragraph have created a whole new updated way the human beings brain functions. Within one generation I have watched the decimation of focus and concentration to where now it is socially accepted that a short attention span is accepted throughout general society! Now not being able to critical think is now a national emergency to me that is not generally acknowledged. Silly - Con - Valley’s Digerati has gotten this behavior accepted by society as just the way it is! They want society to use their A.I product lines instead of your God given brain as we are forever pushed towards efficiencies that are conceived of with robots/machines being pushed onto human beings that are not built for such efficiencies in my assessment
Now with individuals addicted to the screen/device that is always in their hand the chance for the mind to wander and go a hah is being taken away from the human species! The concept of wandering thoughts while being alone has been hijacked! I know myself how much clarity has come when I was not expecting it! Such as writing this spontaneously.
Here is the wild card I feel…. as someone who hasn’t used A.I my mind is still shifting gears because I have maintained my ‘mindful cognitive integrity’ which I worked hard to attain over the many decades of living. I am going to close out with something to leave you to deliberate on.
Their is now something diagnosed as ‘brain rot’ I kid you not! It is said the best way is to immerse yourself in a book or a very in depth magazine feature. This is the best way to improve focus, imagination, and over all brain health. We are now being flooded with A.I products which does the opposite of what was just said.
Also to close out, detoxing from your device which will keep your away from algorithmic balderdash. It seems to me that Silly - Con - Valley’s Digerati is feeding #BRAINROT just like the food industry gives us junk food and chemical laden GMO Food which is demineralized. It appears to me Silly - Con - Valley and Big food have a lot in common don’t ya think.
The thing though is once we go deeper into this concept of the individual is the new start up the resounding winners will be the individual that not just comes up with the answers, will be the one who solves novel problems in a new light! It will the one who asks the right questions! I have labeled this the era of the question not the answer. A.I is about the answer! I will end with this…. Since A.I gives us answers and doesn’t teach the dumb downed human to ask questions, then what does that mean for the humans ahead? For me it is very frightening if I am one of these short attention spanned humans!

There is love and hate…. Your choice. There is fear and freedom…. Your choice.
Now what will your mind allow you to do?
Absolutely. It is a horror story.
So the question you ask requires us to act in answer...otherwise the question remains whatever answer is imposed upon those who don't answer is permitted to remain the horror you describe.
Of course we can alter the answer and make the question of disaster into a redesign from the societies that wish us to be living in the horror show of "all of us are a startup" into starting to unravel the all of us as we are wanted to be into all of us starting to be as we could be.
