Facebook is building an AI that can see, hear and learn like humans… and it will no doubt be used to ENSLAVE humanity

Written by Arsenio Toledo

Facebook recently announced a research project that aims to build an artificial intelligence (AI) capable of understanding the world like human beings.

The company’s AI project is called “Ego4D.” It involves a consortium of researchers from 13 labs and universities in nine countries. The project hopes to create an AI that can “understand and interact with the world like we do” in first-person. To do this, the company is planning to use a constant stream of video and audio from people’s lives.

“AI typically learns from photos and videos captured in third-person, but next-generation AI will need to learn from videos that show the world from the center of action,” says the company during its announcement of the project. “AI that understands the world from this point of view could unlock a new era of immersive experiences.”

Kristen Grauman, Facebook’s lead AI research scientist, says: “Next-generation AI systems will need to learn from an entirely different kind of data – videos that show the world from the center of the action, rather than the sidelines.” (Related: Facebook’s AI robots will destroy the entire human race if not stopped.)

AI being taught using over 3,000 hours of first-person video footage

To teach the new AI how to perceive the world from the vantage point of a human, the Ego4D project gathered over 3,000 hours worth of first-person video from around 850 project participants in nine different countries.

Participants have taken the first-person video by wearing GoPro cameras and augmented reality glasses. They have recorded themselves accomplishing various tasks as they went about their daily lives.

The footage is supplemented by an additional 400 hours of first-person video captured by Facebook Reality Labs Research using test subjects who were wearing augmented reality smart glasses in staged environments.

The AI is then tasked with learning five key benchmark tasks from these 3,400 hours of footage.

The first is “episodic memory.” The AI needs to learn how to tie specific events to the correct time and location that they happened and to be able to recall them when asked.

The second benchmark is “forecasting.” The AI has to learn how to predict human actions and to try to anticipate human needs.

The third is “social interaction.” The intricacies of socialization are innate to the human experience, but no AI system anywhere in the world can properly understand it. The AI must be the first to learn how to understand it.

The fourth is “hand and object manipulation.” The AI must learn how to manipulate hands to learn new skills.

The last benchmark is “audio-visual diarization.” The AI needs to keep a “video diary” of clips and audio and must be able to tie them to specific locations and times.

No AI system anywhere in the world can perform all five of the tasks listed above. Facebook hopes this new AI can help people recall critical information, locate objects and accomplish tasks better and quicker.

“Ego4D makes it possible for AI to gain knowledge rooted in the physical and social world, gleaned through the first-person perspective of the people who live in it,” says Grauman. “Not only will AI start to understand the world around it better, it could one day be personalized at an individual level – it could know your favorite coffee mug or guide your itinerary for your next family trip.”

“This will allow AI systems to help you in ways that are really in the moment, contextual with what you’re doing and what you’ve seen before, all in ways you just can’t do now,” Grauman adds.

Neuralink competitor Synchron launches human trials for first commercial brain computer interface

Written by Ethan Huff

Human beings are about to be merged with the “cloud” in a new clinical trial involving brain-machine interfaces.

Synchron, a competitor of Elon Musk’s Neuralink Corp., just enrolled the first patient in its United States-based clinical trial. If successful, the company could soon receive regulatory approval for wide use in the human population.

Funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the government agency where Tony Fauci works, Synchron’s trial will manipulate the human brain with a Stentrode device, which will supposedly allow patients to control digital devices without their hands.

By just thinking about controlling something, a Stentrode-modified person can perform various tasks. Both Synchron and Musk have been working towards this goal for many years.

With Musk, it started with pigs but ended there, as the company is still looking for a director to run human trials. This is despite raising $205 million just last year for the project.

Synchron, meanwhile, is altering the human brain with just $70 million total, beating Musk to the punch.

Musk and other technocrats want to turn humans into AI robots

Brain-computer interfaces, or BCI, are being touted as a way to “empower” disabled people to easily communicate and engage in the same activities as non-disabled people.

These implants, according to technocrats like Musk, could allow those who receive them to develop “superintelligence,” also known as artificial intelligence or AI.

“Synchron’s device, once implanted, travels to the brain through blood vessels. Neuralink’s is implanted directly into the skull,” reported Bloomberg Quint about the technology. “After it reaches the brain, the Stentrode translates brain activity into signals designed to allow texting, emailing, online shopping or other activities using an external device.”

If Synchron can put together “evidence” showing that the device works and is “safe,” then the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is expected to grant it commercial approval at warp speed.

Six patients split between New York and Pittsburgh will receive the implant as part of Synchron’s trial. The first patient to receive one enrolled just this week at Mt. Sinai Hospital in New York.

Synchron founder and CEO Tom Oxley refused to identify the patient or provide any demographic details.

Following this trial, the company hopes to expand it to a larger one before getting the FDA’s rubber-stamp approval. Then, in the next few years, the device would hit the consumer market.

Though all eyes are on Synchron right now since it is ahead of Neuralink, the world must not forget that Neuralink and Musk are where this all started.

Musk, despite his newfound pandering to conservatives with the purchase of Twitter, has long promoted AI hybrids as a new, “smarter” humanity. He even gave his “gender neutral” baby an AI hybrid name in recognition of what he truly believes.

Like his Tesla and SpaceX empires, Musk’s Neuralink project is highly subsidized by the U.S. government – meaning American taxpayers are footing the bill for his various pet projects.

In 2019, Musk envisioned incorporating a “bunch of tiny wires” into people’s brains, creating an “electrode to neuron interface at a micro level.”

Synchron is doing much the same thing while beating Musk to the punch, but both companies are forging the same path.

“The long-term aspiration with Neuralink would be to achieve a symbiosis with artificial intelligence and to achieve a sort of democratization of intelligence, such that it is not monopolistically held in purely digital form by governments and large corporations,” Musk said at the time.

Harrison Smith: Mind control via remote control is coming soon

Written by Kevin Hugues

“American Journal” host Harrison Smith has warned that direct control over the mind via remote control is soon coming. During a recent episode of his program, Smith played two video clips of a beetle with a brain implant that can be controlled by remote control.

“It’s not enough anymore to simply manipulate you through the information that you have access to through your hormonal receptions such as dopamine or adrenaline by invoking fear or giving you the pleasure of receiving a like on your posts. No longer is this pseudo-direct control of the mind being exploited. They’ve gone a step beyond now to direct control over minds using remote controls. It’s really an astonishing thing,” Smith said of the scientific advancement that scientists are now making.

Smith said the brain implant on the beetle allows the researcher to control the bug against its will. He also noted that the beetle was trying to fight the stimulation controls, but the researchers said they still had control over the insect. The researchers were using electricity that was being pumped into the beetle to keep it moving.

A lot of people are already talking about chip implants to pay for things, as well as palm scanning. Smith said brain control implants are coming next, and it may be mandated just like the masks and the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccines.

“It will be an existential crisis that people are able to think the things that they think without oversight of the overlords and that’s a problem for them. So they’ll soon have direct access, subdermal brain access, to your physical functions,” said Smith before showing a video clip of World Economic Forum founder Klaus Schwab bragging about it several years ago.

The video clip showed Schwab talking with Google co-founder Sergey Brin at the 2017 World Economic Forum about how people will have brain implants very soon.

Smith said Schwab and his fellow globalists are trying to live forever and that this brain implant is now being implemented.

He added that people still see this scientific advancement as some sort of fantasy conspiracy theory that is not worth paying attention to and they will not think about it until the order comes down that will force them to get an implant in their brain “for safety and climate change.”

Brain-computer interface device is coming soon

Meanwhile, people are now a step closer to being able to text or interface with personal devices using their thoughts, and it’s all thanks to the successful initial safety trial of an implantable device that can translate the electrical impulses from the brain into readable signals.

The new brain-computer interface (BCI) also called “brain modem” doesn’t need a hole in your head but it does require a hole in your chest.

Brain modems are coming soon and they will be delivered by Elon Musk’s Neuralink company or another corporation that will invest in it. Big questions like how fast they will be ready, how well they will work and how many will want to use them have already been asked. (Related: Ethical questions raised after Elon Musk’s Neuralink company implants chip in monkey’s brain.)

Last month, New York-based biotech company Synchron declared the results of a trial of its two-piece brain modem in four individuals with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or ALS, which is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects the brain and spinal cord and can cause paralysis. The BCI clinical trials were approved for the first time by the Food and Drug Administration.

Testers supervised the four volunteers for a year to search for any negative effects from the implants and the company stated that there were “no serious adverse events that led to disability or death.”

Synchron’s team published the results in the Journal of NeuroInterventional Surgeries.

According to Synchron, the implants were safe and “allowed participants to use a computer to communicate by text and perform daily tasks such as online shopping and banking.”

Globalists want to track your “individual carbon footprint” for total control over your travel, food and consumption of goods

Written by Lance D Johnson

The World Economic Forum (WEF) met in Davos, Switzerland to discuss the future of controlling humanity. J. Michael Evans, president of the Alibaba Group, talked about the development of an “individual carbon footprint tracker.”

“We’re developing through technology an ability for consumers to measure their own carbon footprint,” said Alibaba’s Michael Evans. “What does that mean? That’s where they’re traveling, how they’re traveling, what are they eating, what are they consuming on the platform. Individual carbon footprint tracker. Stay tuned, we don’t have it operational yet but this is something that we are working on,” he added.

Chinese mega corporation to unleash new carbon footprint tracking technology

This carbon footprint tracker technology (from China) is designed to track and control every person’s travel and consumption of food, energy and other goods. To accomplish these goals of surveillance and control, the world elite would either have to use injectable or implantable surveillance technology or reset the global economy with a digital currency that can track and restrict everyone’s purchases and travel abilities. This tracking technology could be adapted into vehicles to restrict a person’s travel and interfere with their autonomy and freedom. Individuals have already been primed to accept this technology due to their use of apps and devices that track and record their every move, purchase and behavior.

The Alibaba Group is behind the technology. This Chinese mega corporation operates in a culture that doesn’t respect human rights. The company has great leverage and would be able to implement these tracking systems with ease. The company could easily convince corporations around the world to apply the “carbon footprint tracker” technology and shame companies that don’t go along as being “climate change deniers.”

Carbon footprint trackers go hand-in-hand with social credit scores and grander population control schemes

Now that individuals have given up their body sovereignty to mask and vaccine mandates, it wouldn’t be that hard to “mandate” this kind of technology for the “greater good.” Many people will easily go along with the carbon mandates to virtue signal that they are saving one another and “saving the planet.” This is all part of a grander scheme of implementing social credit scores, which have also been introduced in China. People will be pressured to slowly give up their faith in God and put their trust in a global government. In order to have a high social credit score and be acceptable in society, individuals will be cajoled to behave and believe as their masters desire. Social media platforms have already been engineered to prime people to comply with this system of social acceptance and control. The carbon footprint is just one of the main aspects in this system of total control over the population.

This technology will easily go hand-in-hand with future plandemics and climate change lock downs. The WEF previously praised the lockdowns of 2020 and 2021 as beneficial to the climate. In social media posts, the WEF advertised lockdowns as “quietly improving cities around the world.” Many of the WEF members supported contact tracing to unlawfully detain and lock people in their homes for two weeks at a time, (multiple times) under the guise of complying with a public health-ordered “quarantine.” These same WEF panelists lecture the world population about their carbon footprint, right before they take off in their private jets, which spew more carbon emissions in one flight than the average person uses in one year.

The WEF endorsed the lockdowns and the labeling of small businesses as “non-essential.” It was these totalitarian actions that rapidly consolidated corporate and government control over the population, quashing property rights and leaving individuals and businesses dependent on the next government stimulus. As WEF founder Klaus Schwab infamously said, “In the future, you’ll own NOTHING — and you’ll be happy about it.” Schwab and the rest of the WEF elite derive their pleasure from manipulating and controlling people and treating us all as expendable blips in a faithless, centrally-planned world.
