Praise be to Nero’s Neptune
The Titanic sails at dawn
Everybody’s shouting
“Which side are you on?”
And Ezra Pound and T. S. Eliot
Fighting in the captain’s tower
While calypso singers laugh at them
And fishermen hold flowers
Between the windows of the sea
Where lovely mermaids flow
And nobody has to think too much
About Desolation Row

Bob Dylan

Well Eric, as a 60's baby consider this:

Times are different,
people are strange,
I used to care,
but things have changed.

Same dude.

THE FUTURE ?

These three subjects will determine everything that will matter. 1. Genomic Architecture. 2. Nano Technology. 3. Artificial Intelligence. When they are combined to form the algorithm of singularity to solve the problem to solve the problem for superhuman level machine intelligence. Meta-Cognition.

metacognition
Has also been a subject investigation in the social sciences, not just AI. That said, AI will bring with it development moral and ethical issues, which may or may not alter all known social structures to date.

Someone asked the question on another forum I frequent concerning the millennials being the worst generation yet this is my response when someone stated the baby boomers were the worst....

Every generation is the product of previous generations decay compounded there are signs of societal collapse every generation some subtle clues some more pronounced

Every generation since we came here from England has been tasked with building a nation this nation and worked hard to build it with the pinnacle being placing a man on the moon in under 200yrs of existence with slide rules, long math and basic computers.....every generation at some point found less and less was required to build and started to enjoy the fruits of its labor more and more....America has been exceptional compared to other nations in social matters in science in production etc.....and in human advancement as a whole....what do we do now? all the great achievements have been accomplished as far as man can conceive? there is science that shows the deterioration of mans biology when his purpose is not so clear anymore....we have the primal need to evolve but what does mankind do now?....(rhetorical)

The millennials are the latest greatest product from a nation of excess and privilege on the decline.....from producers to consumers....they are the recipient today of our education system here in the U.S. of the radical anti's baby boomers ideology whom have seized our education systems.....only students of history and self aware are the exceptions who seek to continue to build while standing on the shoulders of the exceptional minds of history who advanced mankind......self awareness involving history and current social engineering...recognition and desire to advance something logically.

We have become so passive the warrior gene(argumentatively the psychopathic part), the primal man the hunter, the one who instinctively takes what he and his family needs is fading....it stands out more and more in contrast to civilized modern society and era of lesser testosterone driven she-men who are more comfortable calling themselves feminist. This society today has evolved from Primal man with a club dragging his woman back to the cave by her hair to a society women have begun to commandeer....ironically this would never happen in any other phase of man-kinds existence....are mens genes evolving to fit into the more feminine society??

What does man in his primal needs have to accomplish today? hunt? not unless he chooses...build, explore, fight for territory? most of these needs have been taken care of by societies evolution! man is reduced to sustaining society.....the primal instincts are becoming dulled....not even continuation of ones bloodline (pro-creation) is of importance anymore....many women have suppressed the need to reproduce and society has reduced the need for mans primal instincts as a means of survival.....

How does this generation contribute when everything that makes a man needed is reduced to a females ability and men are not able to find their natural place?....is this what happens as societies decline? does man reach his pinnacle and then go into a figurative biological hibernation? Is this why man cannot ascend any higher except for at a snails pace? is this what happens to great civilizations?
