dystopian cybernetics future<\/a> that global technocrats are pushing mankind toward.<\/p>\nThe report, \u201cHuman Augmentation \u2014 The Dawn of a New Paradigm, a Strategic Implications Project,\u201d1<\/span><\/sup> reviews the scientific goals of the U.K. and German defense ministries, and they are precisely what the title suggests. Human augmentation is stressed as being a key area to focus on in order to win future wars.<\/p>\nBut human augmentation will not be restricted to the military ranks. It\u2019s really a way to further separate classes of humans, with the rich and powerful elite being augmented \u201csuper-humans.\u201d It\u2019s worth noting that anything released to the public is a decade or more behind current capabilities, so everything in this report can be considered dated news, even though it reads like pure science fiction.<\/p>\n
\u201c… the field of human augmentation has the potential to transform society, security and defense over the next 30 years,\u201d<\/em> the report states. \u201cWe must begin to understand the implications of these changes and shape them to our advantage now, before they are thrust upon us.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\nTechnology in warfare has traditionally centered on increasingly sophisticated platforms that people move and fight from, or artefacts that they wear or wield to fight with. Advances in the life sciences and converging developments in related fields are, however, beginning to blur the line between technology and the human …<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\nMany technologies that have the potential to deliver strategic advantage out to 2050 already exist and further advances will undoubtedly occur … Our potential adversaries will not be governed by the same ethical and legal considerations that we are, and they are already developing human augmentation capabilities.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\nOur key challenge will be establishing advantage in this field without compromising the values and freedoms that underpin our way of life …<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\nWhen we think of human augmentation it is easy to imagine science fiction inspired suits or wonder drugs that produce super soldiers, but we are on the cusp of realizing the benefits in a range of roles now. Human augmentation will help to understand, optimize and enhance performance leading to incremental, as well as radical, improvements.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\nChanging What It Means To Be Human<\/h2>\n
As noted in the report, \u201cHuman augmentation has the potential to … change the meaning of what it means to be a human.\u201d This is precisely what Klaus Schwab, founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum (WEF), has stated is the goal of The Fourth Industrial Revolution.2<\/span><\/sup><\/p>\nWEF has been at the center of global affairs for more than 40 years, and if you take the time to dive into WEF\u2019s Fourth Industrial Revolution material, you realize that it\u2019s all about transhumanism. It\u2019s about the merger of man and machine. This is a dystopian future WEF and its global allies are actively trying to implement, whether humanity at large agrees with it or not.<\/p>\n
Schwab dreams of a world in which humans are connected to the cloud, able to access the internet through their own brains. This, of course, also means that your brain would be accessible to people who might like to tinker with your thoughts, emotions, beliefs and behavior, be they the technocratic elite themselves or random hackers. As noted by history professor Yuval Noah Harari in late 2019, \u201chumans are now hackable animals.\u201d3<\/span><\/sup> As noted in the featured report:4<\/span><\/sup><\/p>\n\u201cHuman augmentation will become increasingly relevant, partly because it can directly enhance human capability and behavior and partly because it is the binding agent between people and machines.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\nFuture wars will be won, not by those with the most advanced technology, but by those who can most effectively integrate the unique capabilities of both people and machines. The importance of human-machine teaming is widely acknowledged but it has been viewed from a techno-centric perspective.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\nHuman augmentation is the missing part of this puzzle. Thinking of the person as a platform and understanding our people at an individual level is fundamental to successful human augmentation.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\nKey words I\u2019d like to draw your attention to is the affirmation that human augmentation can \u201cdirectly enhance behavior.\u201d Now, if you can enhance behavior, that means you can change someone\u2019s behavior. And if you can change a person\u2019s behavior in a positive way, you can also control it to the person\u2019s own detriment.<\/p>\n
Theoretically, absolutely anyone, any random civilian with a brain-to-cloud connection and the needed biological augmentation (such as strength or speed) could be given wireless instructions to carry out an assassination, for example, and pull it off flawlessly, even without prior training.<\/p>\n
Alternatively, their physical body could temporarily be taken over by a remote operator with the prerequisite skills. Proof of concept already exists, and is reviewed by Dr. Charles Morgan, professor in the department of national security at the University of New Haven, in the lecture below. Using the internet and brain implants, thoughts can be transferred from one person to another. The sender can also directly influence the physical movements of the receiver.<\/p>\n
