A question keeps recurring again and again,
across all cultures and systems of thought:
where’s the core of consciousness in brain -
within the universe or in hands of God?
They told me that God is the answer.
I said, no, you created it.
Okay, then science is the answer.
No, you created it.
Ah, then maths is surely the answer.
No, you created it.
“Uff, seems like I’m caught in myself -
what’s the way out of it? ”.
Centuries of debates happened
over mind and matter,
philosophers were in trouble
when their ideas were shattered.
Until the night Turing arrived
and imagined a new dawn
of creating computations -
alien intelligence artificially spawn.
Smart move that was, now I am more keen -
How's our brain different from a machine?
What's this secret behind the scene?
Machines are designed with rules to follow.
Humans make rules which they hardly follow.
‘Human with a machine brain’ seems like the new theorem -
where a cyborg vacillates between freedom and decorum.
Humans and machines seem like striking their chords,
transmuting into an army of cyborgs:
chips in brains, sensors in eyes,
to keep track of calories and time.
Wow! A cyborg standing on this slippery interface -
what will be more worthy for his solace -
some objective rules or his subjective space?
Looking at history of humanity it seems,
we attach value to our dreams -
Not the parcel delivered to your doorstep
but that soul-searching you begin after.
Not the person you meet on web,
but that magical real encounter.
The world in future will have a society -
not built on our rules, but on our autonomy.
The song that you create, the painting that you make.
The pun that you quip and the laugh that we all share.
A social structure built on pillars of arts -
will set everyone equal on charts.
No new rules to make,
no old rules to break.
Though as we become more algorithmic,
your heart will strive to stay rhythmic.
Rules will feed a dead life in you,
so you'll yearn for a life in you.
There might be times of depression -
of less free will and maybe oppression.
The mantra is: to breathe and meditate,
to be able to love and to create.
Wow! This world is so full of excitement and tension.
I guess I have found hints to my old question -
that part of my consciousness is in the machine,
and the valuable part is working behind the scene.

AI as alien intelligence
controlling our brain
making rules for us to follow
control on ourselves is reducing
algorithmic and non-algorithmic part of brain
non-algorithmic part reducing
value of money here
to meditate, arts etc..is what is the future economy.
