HUMANS ARE 'HACKABLE ANIMALS'



Story at-a-glance:

  • According to Klaus Schwab, founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum (WEF), the goal of The Fourth Industrial Revolution is to change what it means to be human by merging man and machine.
  • Humans are now �hackable,� in that technology now exists by which a company or government can know you better than you know yourself, and that can be very dangerous if misused.
  • Professor Yuval Noah Harari predicts that algorithms will increasingly be used to make decisions that have historically been made by humans, either yourself or someone else, including whether or not you�ll be hired for a particular job, whether you�ll be granted a loan, what scholastic curriculum you will follow and even who you will marry.
  • Harari warns that if we allow the establishment of a digital dictatorship, where the system, be it a corporation or a government, knows the most intimate details about each and every person, it will be impossible to dismantle it. Its control will be total and irreversible.
  • If you believe that your thoughts and behavior are and always will remain under your own control, think again. We already have the technology to directly alter thoughts, emotions and behavior.

According to Klaus Schwab, founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum (WEF), the goal of The Fourth Industrial Revolution is to change what it means to be human by merging man and machine.

In short, while the term �transhumanism� is not being used, that�s exactly where the global cabal intends to take us, willing or not.

In a November 2019 interview with CNN, history professor and bestselling author Yuval Noah Harari, a Klaus Schwab disciple, warned that �humans are now hackable animals,� meaning, the technology now exists by which a company or government can know you better than you know yourself, and that can be very dangerous if misused.

He predicted that algorithms will increasingly be used to make decisions that historically have been made by humans, either yourself or someone else, including whether or not you�ll be hired for a particular job, whether you�ll be granted a loan, what scholastic curriculum you will follow and even who you will marry.

Profound dangers ahead

There�s also an ever-increasing risk of being manipulated by these outside forces that you�re not even fully aware of. Looking back over the last two years, it�s rather easy to confirm that mass manipulation is taking place at a staggering scale and that it�s phenomenally effective.

As noted by Harari in 2019, the available capabilities already go far beyond Orwell�s �1984� authoritarian vision, and it�s only going to become more powerful from here. He�s certain that in short order, there will be the ability to monitor your emotional state through something as simple as a wearable wristband.

You may dutifully smile and clap when listening to a speech by a government official, but they�ll know you�re angry or don�t agree with what�s being said, and could therefore take action against you based on your most personal, internal emotions rather than what you outwardly express.

Importantly, Harari warned that if we allow the establishment of this kind of digital dictatorship, where the system, be it a corporation or a government, knows the most intimate details about each and every person, it will be impossible to dismantle it.

Its control will be total and irreversible. And, Harari believes we may have only a decade, at most two, to prevent this digital dictatorship from taking over.

Reengineering life itself

Harari also discussed the coming transhumanism at the WEF�s 2020 annual meeting in Davos (above), and in this speech, he went even further. Not only does the global elite have the technological capability to create a global digital dictatorship, but �elites may gain the power to reengineer the future of life itself,� he said.

Harari continued:

�For four billion years, nothing fundamental changed in the basic rules of the game of life. All of life was subject to the laws of natural selection and the laws of organic biochemistry. But this is now about to change.

�Science is replacing evolution by natural selection with evolution by intelligent design, not the intelligent design of some god in the clouds, [but] OUR intelligent design, and the design of our �clouds,� the IBM cloud, the Microsoft cloud. These are the new driving forces of evolution.�

It�s hard to determine whether Harari is for or against transhumanism. He speaks of it as an inevitability and something that can be used for tremendous good. But he also recognizes its profound dangers and seems to believe we need to discuss how these technological capabilities can be used, and whether they should.

In the featured Davos speech, it sounds as though he�s a proponent of this human intelligent design venture, but in his 2019 interview with CNN, he also stated that �we must never underestimate the stupidity of humans.�

The fact that we have the technology to design new life forms, including new kinds of humans, does not necessarily mean that we�re smart enough to design something better than what natural evolution has come up with thus far.

In his Davos speech, Harari also pointed out that science is now enabling us to create life not only in the organic realm but in the inorganic realm as well. We�re talking about �living� robots and the like.

He also raises the question as to who �owns� your DNA, if it can be charted and hacked. Does it belong to you, a corporation or the government?
