Hi everyone,
I was wondering, Harvest is all about entities getting a chance to move up a notch in the Universe. Now, everything that exists has to belong to a particular density. So what density would technology fall under? Perhaps 1st, or maybe even 2nd at the moment?
However, surely when we finally create true artificial intelligence (A.I.) we would essentially be taking technology to a new density, since artificial intelligence is supposed to mean that the machine becomes self-aware (to use Terminator terminology)? But, can’t entities only really move up a density during a Harvest? If so, then our creation of A.I. would surely signal that a Harvest of sorts is taking place, or at least that there is a good chance that a Harvest is taking place?
If we view the creation of A.I. as a good indicator/benchmark for when the Harvest will occur, then perhaps we could monitor the progress of A.I. in order to time/track the upcoming Harvest. Perhaps the guys behind the scenes (military, corporate, etc.) are closer to true A.I. than we know, with all the progress in quantum computing, chips, processors, memristors, etc. that we know about! Ok, then I guess the hidden or secretive nature of the cutting edge of A.I. development would make it kind of hard to track, but I think this is at least an interesting line of thought.
Any thoughts?
Cheers,
Ryan
