Today Google introduced another commercial to tell me how smart I am for using their AI. Yesterday, OpenAI introduced their commercial to preempt Google. OMG, his prescience on this score is beautiful. I don’t agree with his philosophy of arresting change at all. He converted to Catholicism which I rejected after 6 decades. It used the information media of its era to do what he disliked; the rejection of Christ’s own ‘old’ religion for a “modern” one. His insight embraced the fact that information is physical, but he was blind to the evidence of radio and TV being embodied on the physicality of electromagnetics. Like McLuhan, I embrace the idea of understanding and explaining memetic transmission of knowledge at the speed of light. We don’t have a good explanation of how memes are embodied in our beings, but neither did Darwin know about DNA. He observed and described genetic replication and selection of the most fit variants molded to the context of an organism’s environment . We have yet to unlock the “DNA” of memes, but we will. I may be wrong.
