Synthetic Super Intelligence and the Transmutation of Humankind

Chapter 6: The Role of AI in Corporations and in the Media
…IOTAS partners with property developers and owners, to install
apartments with smart outlets, light switches, and motion sensors before
they're rented. The typical IOTAS apartment has about 40 sensors in it! 176
Just as this blogger points, it will be difficult to opt out from forty
smart sensors. Also, many of these smart sensors use biometrics, such as
voice, facial recognition, and fingerprints. In light of what we have
discussed thus far in this book, it is probably quite obvious to the reader by
now why the corporate world, which is answering to the AIF, wants all this
information about you; it will all be used in their research and data
gathering leading up to the Singularity and the Super Brain Computer
(SBC).
I warned my readers already in the WPP to watch out for the word
smart in the media; it always means surveillance and control. Now, after the
fact, we see the word “smart” in more and more instances. IOTAS 177 writes
on its website (my emphasis),
Everything is about to change.
Right now entrepreneurs everywhere are bringing to life everyday objects
by integrating smart technology; allowing us to learn, control and enhance
our daily experience. The business opportunity is enormous, estimated by
some to be $70 billion by 2018 with as much as 9 billion new connected
devices. This movement is coming to the home in a big way, and IOTAS will
help lead the way for rental properties. 178
This is obviously the planned future for cybernetic humans, sugarcoated
by the corporate world so that people believe it’s all for their
convenience and benefit. This is exactly why knowledge is so important. How
many times have I repeated that since I started writing the WPP? If we
don’t grasp as much as we can about our past, our present, and the potential
future that is being planned for us, we all willingly and enthusiastically
walk right into the slaughterhouse faster than cows.
Moreover, the blogger at Massprivatel points to other companies that
quickly want in on these smart apartment sensors, including insurance
companies, and they will all be capable of spying on the residents. Beneath
the article, a reader writes in the comment section,
