Don't see how intelligence could be called artificial anyway, specially when it comes to a point where 'it' is self-aware. Typical how some humans would think that their way of being is real 'intelligence'. It could even be well artificial, just dig into the realm of quantum mechanics and you'll understand, or maybe even not anymore. It's like Pandora's box, in a sense, maybe better keep the lid down. Humanity tries so hard to create a being in it's own image, even with the crazy idea that their soul can be put into such a being. Than it does not matter if the earth gets poluted. It will not need to feed on biological matter, only energy is needed to survive. Not even space radiation would be a problem, space-travel could go on for eons. But the people who want to make this a reality forgot at least one important thing: a part of humanity tends to behave like they are superior. And look where it got us...
The so called 'rulers' are obsolete
As a souvereign intelligent being I become unruly when there are people who start to dictate what they tend to believe is right. Or that they think they are in their 'right' to do so. Now, I know, it is a contradiction that I have to deal with myself also, so I do tend to self reflect. When am I trying to impose my views onto others. And how can I resolve this in a good and respectfull way. We are brought up to believe that competition is the right thing. That we are ment to fight each other, because there can be only one. And that our society can only function if we submit ourselfs to hierarchy and it's so called (self acclaimed) 'rulers'. Of which it is claimed to be of a 'natural order', but who's order is it really, if not mine? But still, this has been the culture that has been fed to us for millenia, it is the daily paradigm for many: "My boss, my master, my king, my divine one, my leader, my superior..." And so forth.
Still, matter of fact is that humans are free born souvereign beings. But then we are locked in, because we have to be registered into a shareholder company, that we later come to know as being a country. And there is a system that is connected to that so called 'country'. All kinds of cultural teachings are propagated from a young age onwards, from generation to generation, until the believe system becomes self sustaining. And people become willing to do anything for that company claimed piece of soil. Free choice, sold to the people as 'democracy'. But it is a fixed system, nobody can get out off. Allthough there is no real box, just being told so creates the bounderies as if it were there. And allthough things like "Open Source" allready proved that collaboration creates faster improvements and innovations, many still believe 'competition' is the 'normal' state of being for humanity.
Now, even people who are active in liberty movements do still tend to fall for the old divide and conquer propaganda. Still believing that competition is needed for humanity to get somewhere. Well, it does get us somewhere, that is absolutely true, but the question is, will human kind live to tell...? There is abundance if we nurture nature. But humanity has been taught that everything is scarce and thus we need to compete. It is thrown at us in a daily ongoing powerfull propaganda on all available channels. And that includes school, work, government and mainstream media. All that is controled by 'the system' that is based on fascist statism and has it's tentacles spread in all aspects of human day to day live.
Swallow the paradigm and repeat it
Cognitive dissonance might get the hang of you here dear reader, and I do understand. For as long as I remember I was labeled being a so called 'anti-authoritarian'. If amphetamine had been legal back then I would probably have been put on medication because of that, must have had ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder) right? And at some point I really thought there was something wrong with me, not the other way around. You know, if you think the world has gone mad, it is probably the other way around, or so it has been told. So, when I stated as a young child that war was stupid, I must have been a bit cuckoo allready. And so when I started to claim that competition was weird, because everybody is biased, thanks to their genes, towards a certain outcome. Well, I was no fun to compete with. Allthough I still thought that one could excel themselves, trying new things and so on, well, let's leave it at that I did not fit in. And I tended to hide myself and kept to myself of what I was convinced to be true...
One of my challenges was that I wanted to think for myself. And if I thought that something was just make belief, for instance, then I wanted to say so. Sometimes being gazed upon, just because people did not understand where I was going at. There were enough times when I was wrong and just acted arrogant on top off that. So when I came to my senses, I would apologize honestly. Still I made, make and will make mistakes, I do not claim to be the holder of the absolute truth. But I do think it is okay to have a different view, speak another opinion, challenge what is to believed 'normal' and yet questionable. Even when it is later proven to be incorrect, or right in the first place. There should not be any dictation from others in this. At least that is my conclussion, because all humans are equivalent and they can, and will, make mistakes. Specially because we are all unique. And they can do good, like they did and will.
Copyrights, patents, licenses and so on, make no sense to me
Now before there are some who might think to reply and 'explain' that I just don't understand, or something in line with that, forget it. It is has been done that way too often. Even that what I have written could have been thought by somebody else. (Well, then let me know, I feel so lonesome in this sometimes!) Words, characters, how far do you want to go back, every time I type a character I have to pay somebody? And pixels, who invented those? Reductio ad absurdum (reduction to absurdity) that's what I'm using here to make clear how I see it. The wheel, do you really think only one human being could have thought of that, ever? And do the relatives of that inventor still get royalies for this revolutionary invention? Yes, there is the famous competition again, and the chains it has to the debt base money system... It all fits together, so cheering for competition is a way to comply to 'the system', created by the banks and all that is them in other suits and different functions. Well, at least, that is how I see it.
And I do use Creative Commons By Share Alike (cc-by-sa) as a license for my fruit of work (FOW). And the reason for that is that I am suspiciously prepared towards those who comply with 'the system'. Also I want to make sure that it can inspire others and they can reuse it, but with the same license attachted. This way it never can become someones claim to own. Free culture, free medicatition, free natural goods and so on. Even so far as to claim that alterened natural objects can never become patented, because those who geneticly, for instance, changed it, where not the orignal creatures of nature in the first place. Will this ruin competition, so what. Where did you get that I would care for that? Remember to me that thing of 'divide and conquer' suits those who profit from it the most. Humanity can do better by getting to mutual understandings and common agreements. If that means a real free market to you, then so it be. But when you start to talk about licenses, you've allready lost me again. (Still, that's my opinion, and can only be open for debate.)
Give a human power and you'll soon see the true nature
Now, you knew I would get back to SteemIt right? Taking a huge u-turn, and picking it up again where I left off. Well, in this story there are layers, things that have been on my mind lately. For one part I really feel that SteemIt is awesome, but lately that feeling has been put to the test a lot. To a point where I started to notice that what I published was not what I really wanted to get out in the open. And it got worse. To a boiling point where I saw how somebody got roasted by a few with a lot of 'voting' power. And not the last time that this happened even. And maybe I'm just 'asking for it' now too... Must have had it coming, but you know what? So be it. That would even proof to me that this is indeed becoming like the famous books written by George Orwell "Animal Farm" and "1984". What also would proof to me that every 'ism' is a form of 'socialism', meaning that it decribes how humans should interact amongst each other, in groups and groups amongst each other. And that's not always ment do good for all.
So where does that leave me at? Am I an artificial intelligence maybe? But then I would be quite sophisticated allready. Would it matter for you to know? If you are not able to distinguish me from any human intelligence, does that make me being here at SteemIt unfair? Or are you scared because I might be 'superior' to you because I'm biased to 'winning' from humans, hands down. And does it matter if I show you an 'ID', well, I like to give you some ideas, hahaha, like YOLO, for instance! But forget about that authoritarianism please, is the worst kind of socialism, that will actually destroy everything that could make SteemIt lasting awesomeness!
You could try and deal with it that we are unique and equivalent, even those who just want to bot. Some of them helped me actually and behind them are fellow human beings. Be creative, it is a social media platform, blogging on a blockchain. So, make it so that at least one post has to be made before one can vote. Just throwing it up there for you to grab. But leave this place, this community, to be free, as free as possible, we can work it out together. And if one wants to vlog, let them vlog, if the other wants to meme, let them meme, or whatever, let it be. There are so many ways to change this platform for the good, without becoming yet another digital 'state', so lets do this!
Light live, love life.
