"To replace the sky god with a computer god isn't advancement. Real advancement is when nobody suffers from scarcity of sustenance."

"How does the bird come and go(Sufi Scientist Sonnet, 1300)How does the bird come and go,In and out of this bodily cage!So long as you nourish it with love,Who cares about some mythical fate!Cages are born of dust,In dust cages will wither. Yet you sob in love of cage,Oblivious to the endangered flier!With all knowledge of cosmic building blocks,How come you still cannot put an end to war!With all your high and mighty technocracy,How come children still starve and suffer!I say, put your intellect aside for a change,First unfold a human heart outside the cage. Otherwise, your posterboys of superficiality,Will turn this world into a wreck of cages."

"The idea is not to ban innovation, but to adapt it with human welfare."

"Statement on Generative AIJust like Artificial Intelligence as a whole, on the matter of Generative AI, the world is divided into two camps - one side is the ardent advocate, the other is the outspoken opposition. As for me, I am neither. I don't have a problem with AI generated content, I have a problem when it's rooted in fraud and deception. In fact, AI generated content could open up new horizons of human creativity - but only if practiced with conscience. For example, we could set up a whole new genre of AI generated material in every field of human endeavor. We could have AI generated movies, alongside human movies - we could have AI generated music, alongside human music - we could have AI generated poetry and literature, alongside human poetry and literature - and so on. The possibilities are endless - and all above board. This way we make AI a positive part of human existence, rather than facilitating the obliteration of everything human about human life. This of course brings up a rather existential question - how do we distinguish between AI generated content and human created material? Well, you can't - any more than you can tell the photoshop alterations on billboard models or good CGI effects in sci-fi movies. Therefore, that responsibility must be carried by experts, just like medical problems are handled by healthcare practitioners. Here I have two particular expertise in mind - one precautionary, the other counteractive. Let's talk about the counteractive measure first - this duty falls upon the shoulders of journalists. Every viral content must be source-checked by responsible journalists, and declared publicly as fake, i.e. AI generated, unless recognized otherwise. Littlest of fake content can do great damage to society - therefore - journalists, stand guard!Now comes the precautionary part. Precaution against AI generated content must be borne by the makers of AI, i.e. the developers. No AI model must produce any material without some form of digital signature embedded in them, that effectively makes the distinction between AI generated content and human material mainstream. If developers fail to stand accountable out of their own free will, they must be held accountable legally. On this point, to the nations of the world I say, you can't expect backward governments like our United States to take the first step - where guns get priority over children - therefore, my brave and civilized nations of the world - you gotta set the precedent on holding tech giants accountable - without depending on morally bankrupt democratic imperialists. And remember, the idea is not to ban innovation, but to adapt it with human welfare. All said and done, the final responsibility falls upon just one person, and one person alone - the everyday ordinary consumer. Your mind has no reason to not believe the things you find on the internet, unless you make it a habit to actively question everything - or at least, not accept anything at face value. Remember this. Just because it's viral, doesn't make it true. Just because it's popular, doesn't make it right."

"Worse than silicosis is silicon psychosis."

"AI oughta do manual labor, so humans can do the creating."

"Before you master raspberry and arduino,learn to master common everyday humanity. If you're not burning with the fire to do good,there's no point to your gray's anatomy."

"The Humanitarian Nerd(Sonnet 1538)Machines have a tendency ofdisconnecting mind from society. Unless you're driven by a humane dream,silicon dreams only facilitate inhumanity. Worse than silicosis is silicon psychosis,Worse than septicemia es la indiferencia. Worse than writer's block is fighter's block,to settle in ice-age is insult of la conciencia. Before you master raspberry and arduino,learn to master common everyday humanity. If you're not burning with the fire to do good,there's no point to your gray's anatomy."

"Difference between toys and innovation is that toys are for the privileged, innovation is for everyone."

"Welcome to the age of AI, where algorithms grow bigger, and minds get smaller."

"L’innovation et l’intellect ne servent à rien si jamais notre cœur est froid."

"Le pouvoir n’est le pouvoir quelorsqu’il est utilisé avec prudence,Tout pouvoir est un poisons’il est utilisé de manière imprudente."

"Tout pouvoir est un poison s’il est utilisé de manière imprudente."

"Humanovator (The Sonnet)Chatgpt pampers plagiarism,Facebook pampers conspiracy. More and more innovations arebecoming catalyst of catastrophe. Note, I didn't mention the birdie,Very mindful, very demure. Facebook can still be repaired,but once a MAGA, always a sewer. Innovation that outlives its usefulness,is no longer innovation but carnivoration. Innovators not in touch with soil-n-roots,are predators of the concrete jungle. The golden age of startups is behind us,today it's mostly filth, fraud and smut. Amidst the crowd of trust fund termites,be the humanovator to humanize the world."

"Silicon and Sapiens (The Sonnet)Once upon a time,I put down my soldering ironand picked up the keyboard,for I couldn't afford to sustainmy passion for electronics any more. But now that I look back,It was for the best. The world has plenty tech genius,what it lacks is reformer scientist. My inside awareness of machine intricacieshas been an aid to my neuroscience. In a world torn between mind and machine,I bridge the shores of silicon and sapiens. Biologists often diss the potential of machine,just like gadgeteers are oblivious to life. Life is a cosmic miracle, machines are a human one,and with added purpose, machines could bethe mightiest defense of life."

"Once upon a time in the future,robovans will carry robo-sapiens,apes advanced in feats of silicon,yet degraded in feats of sentience."
