Sell Me Your Soul: The Klaus Schwab Interview (Part 3)
Guns, Brain Implants AI & Soul Storage
Sir Klaus and myself have been chatting for quite some time and have become well acquainted. We are sitting in the drawing room of his bunker beneath the Martin Bodmer Museum estate which overlooks Lake Geneva; While there are no windows through which to admire the spectacular views, we do have a live feed to gigantic LED screens that wrap around the interior walls of his drawing room. A side benefit is that these provide extra security for a man that has invoked the ire of a small but significant following of dedicated opponents to his grand global vision. (as discussed in the earlier parts of this interview.) We sip a fine brandy and smoke a cigar.
What does Sir Klaus do to relax? I asked.
I shoot pheasants.
Are you a good shot?
I'm not bad. Of course I get quite a lot of practise in. My wife hates guns. They make her nervous.
Why so?
Well, there have been a few minor scrapes. Staff members can end up in the wrong place at the wrong time or they just don't duck fast enough. Obviously when something untoward happens we have medics here on site who take care of everything. My wife forgets that we build humans. The staff are very grateful for the help we give them. I even think it is worth their while receiving an injury to get our life-enhancing treatment!
Yes. You are in fact doing them a great service Sir Schwab.
I think so.
I know that you do a lot of travelling. Do you like to take vacations?
Yes certainly, but we mostly mix business with pleasure. My wife and I like to visit places such as Hollywood, Seattle, Washington, London and Beijing. We get to attend all kinds of fun events and meet fascinating people.
I'd like to talk about one thing you mentioned- Building humans. What does that involve?
As you know we are engaged in the Fourth Industrial Revolution, or The Great Reset as I call it.
Yes that's such a great name- Simple, catchy and to the point. Please continue.
As you know we are seeing a massive upsurge in the use of Artificial Intelligence. We can now chat with a digital entity like ChatGPT and the results are very impressive. We can ask AI to provide recipes, paint pictures, do research, and even write articles.
Some people are nervous about the advent of AI and the concept of merging themselves with machines. What are your thoughts? How do you reassure those with such apprehensions?
We all know the story of Frankenstein's monster where the obsessive doctor reanimated dead tissue. The doctor had a good idea but he went about it the wrong way. What we want to do is kind of the opposite- Start with a live person and gradually turn him...
Into Frankenstein's monster?
We need a better name for it. (He almost smiles.) Humans have their own embedded traits- Likes, dislikes, traditions, customs, memories, knowledge, skills; So what we do is kind of "bottle" them as a digital file where their entire personality will be uploaded and stored forever.
And what do you do with that stored personality?
We keep the original of course and make multiple copies. With our new digital toy we can insert things, delete things, alter perceptions, create behaviour patterns. In other words, improve the personality. In a sense, create a new and improved soul.
And what do you do with the subject whose personality you copied?
We erase the existing personality and install our new improved one through a machine-to-human interface implanted in the skull. We add AI capabilities to assist with function and data processing.
Sounds incredible Sir Schwab. What kind of capabilities does that bestow?
Well, the beneficiary will be able to recite any page from the Freemasons Handbook for example, or suddenly know how to perform brain surgery.
I see. Truly breathtaking. And what about physical capabilities?
Robots will bear that responsibility. They will become like a physical extension of ourselves, and the human body will eventually become quite obsolete.
Won't these things need to be tested before launch?
Naturally. That's why we are currently recruiting our "Angels" who will test drive the technology. These lucky men and women get to be part of humanity's great leap forward. There will obviously be teething problems but we have the means to make them as comfortable as possible whenever things go wrong.
I see. And the software running all this- Will it be open source?
No, not at all. I know many people believe that open source is superior, and that may be true, but you can't make money with it.
Presumably the operating system will need regular updates. How will this work?
That's not a problem. The subject will receive updates automatically through a satellite-linked receiver built directly into the brain.
Amazing. Will the system ever crash or need a reboot?
Well, yes. That's why subjects will need to refrain from activities such as driving, climbing, flying aircraft, running, rigorous exercise, or anything else that can result in injury.
I see. Fun as we know it will be set aside for the greater good.
Yes.
For everyone?
Some of us will be able to avail of laughter circuits that mimic the experience of enjoyment. That will be a premium feature.
Who controls the software?
Me.
When will it be ready for public release?
We’re already testing it out on Joe Biden. It needs a lot of work, but at least Joe is mostly able to move around, nod and smile, so it’s a start. He tends to malfunction a little, but we believe that is down to the subject being quite mentally challenged.
When do you think you will be ready for your own “Human 2.0” upgrade?
That will be decided in due course. Next question.
Well this has been an absolute pleasure Sir Schwab. I have appreciated your graciousness and super hospitality. It's just a pity we didn't get to meet your lovely wife Hilde.
At that moment a loud female voice booms over the intercom: “Lovely to see you Charles.” it says. It is Hilde. “I've enjoyed your visit immensely. Please do come again soon.”
Certainly. Likewise.
Sir Schwab attempts a smile.
That's my Hilde. She is omni-present.
She sure is.
I suspect you're right Judith Anne but Globalists don't fret over such trivialities. We will own everything and we will be happy whether we are the real us or not!
They are both omnipresent, but is it really them or have they been genetically modified into transhumanists? Then again, perhaps this beautiful couple has merely been replaced.
