Synthetic Super Intelligence and the Transmutation of Humankind

Chapter 10: AI: “I am Lucifer’s Vessel”
their customized robot, and they get the exact partner they want. The same
thing will be available for women; they will be able to buy male sex robots—
they are already on the market in Japan. A study has shown that it is
possible that women, even more so than men, will rely on android partners
in the future, using them both as life companions and sex partners.
This may seem like a great depopulation program, and to some degree
it might be, but the purpose with the sex robots is more for humans to get
used to AI and to substitute human emotions for fake emotions of a lower
range. Dr. Kurzweil has said in many interviews that we should not be
concerned about population boundaries; with the Singularity, we will be
able to accommodate everybody because we can use our resources better and
even clean up our environment.
The Guardian writes,
Although the day when every household has its own Erica is some way off,
the Japanese have demonstrated a formidable acceptance of robots in their
everyday lives over the past year. 288
As we can see, introducing AI to the public, and getting the public’s
acceptance, is a piece of cake for the Controllers. Although Japan has been
a technological society for a long time, people in the Western World
obviously have no problem accepting AI either, referring to the number of
devices being sold there on a daily basis.
In a future chapter, we will address the question that is on most
people’s minds in terms of AI; will robots take over our jobs? If so, what are
we going to do? However, here is an example of what is going on at this
very moment. This quote refers to an event that happened in the summer
of 2015:
…And this summer, a hotel staffed almost entirely by robots – including the
receptionists, concierges and cloakroom staff – opened at the Huis Ten
Bosch theme park near Nagasaki, albeit with human colleagues on hand to
deal with any teething problems. 289
The Guardian report also brings up another interesting point on the
subject of robots taking over our jobs. A report from the Japanese Nomura
