Garry Robson: Humanity Close to Being Automated in Cybernetic System
Garry Robson discusses the deep history of cybernetics and how the goal of the internet was always to create a surveillance man-machine system. Humanity is close to being automated in a closed cybernetic system. The internet and smart phone are the twin pillars. The youth are the key to implementing technocracy. We already have a deeply entrenched enforcement system (e.g. ESG, social credit). However, what they’re attempting to implement does look terribly precarious with too many moving parts. Garry remains optimistic.
