at 87.9 percent penetration United
States is amongst the leaders in
internet usage
we went from Internet traffic of 100
gigabytes per year in the year 1992 to
100 gigabytes per second by the year
2002 this Internet traffic is estimated
to reach 3.30 bytes by the year 2021
with that data I have to assume the
majority of you in this room a regular
Internet users can could very well
relate to the pain and frustration of
losing an Internet connection without
internet it’s almost as if world comes
to a standstill
so could you even imagine today a world
without internet at all let’s explore it
for a few seconds if there is no
internet there is no Facebook if there
is no Facebook you will not be able to
instantly upload any picture or
instantly do a status update to let your
500 plus friends know that you have
reach safely in Timbuktu certainly you
will not be able to deposit a check
sitting at your dining table or make a
trip or reserved a trip I should say
from the comfort of your bed late at
night or worse you may actually have to
turn back on your way to work to see if
the garage door was closed or not
needless to say Internet has completely
transformed our lives today their mega
businesses like Facebook Expedia Google
and so many more the likes of which did
have become everyday common household
names like it used to be Sears for
example ex
these businesses did not even exist 20
to 30 years ago
indeed Internet has completely
transformed how we conduct business how
we process information so much so how
even we socialize interact with each
other having no boundaries Geographic or
social Internet has even transformed the
way we interact as Internet has even
transformed the way we have
self-identity or security so what is
this internet where did it come from
where is it taking us is it something to
be afraid of
simply put Internet is a cable that runs
around the world connecting different
computers to form a network of computers
allowing these computers to be able to
talk each other using a common protocol
derived from the phone networks internet
was conceived in 1969 but unlike the
phone networks internet uses packet
switching networks where it allows a
data stream to be broken down into
smaller packets and allowing each data
packet to transfer using a potentially a
different route and all these packets to
be able to reassemble recompile at the
destination to form the original message
much like the transporter in Star Trek
however internet offered a much more
reliable and a scalable mode of
communication therefore hence it is what
where it is today from the popularity
standpoint in the 1990s internet became
more adapt then adaption of the internet
became more popular on the backs of
worldwide internet worldwide web as more
and more computers patched into the
internet and the availability
personal computers became more popular
internet the commercialization of the
Internet was inevitable hands began the
start of the internet revolution that
became more prevalent and transformed
the world much faster than the first and
second Industrial Revolution combined
with the advent of the communications
with the cell phones and the cell and
the cellular network internet became
more prevalent and became more
accessible now requiring no wired
connections to the devices internet
people evolved from asynchronous
communication to synchronous
conversations just as the internet was
the disruptive agent for the technology
internet of people emerged to be a
disruptive force for our societies for
instance today no one like an emergent
emerging artist does not require an
agent to promote them they could self
promote themselves on YouTube hence
making every member of her society and
feeling empowered on the backs of the
internet internet indeed was the
catalyst for globalization or even for
many social and political revolutions
around the world by the year 2000
automation and robotics were prevalent
and had advanced enough so that now we
could program machines to be able to
network with each other and to be able
to talk to each other to complete
complex tasks now humans dream of
creating a self-learning machine was
becoming a reality the likes of which
was portrayed as Johnny Five in the
movie short circuit except unlike Johnny
Five the modern machines do not have to
sit in front of a TV all night long to
learn and expand their knowledge base
they simply have to patch into the
internet to be able to expand their
knowledge
humans have an age-old desire to forge
God’s to be able to create us like a
perfect being an all-knowing creature
the likes of which that was portrayed as
Lilu in the movie Fifth Element well
with the advent of machine learning that
dream was also fulfilled today
machines patched into the internet could
actually continue to evolve themselves
by learning on their own data patterns
and as they patch into the internet the
the ecosystem is expanded so as their
knowledge base now in comparison to the
human beings what was lacking was
machines ability to sense well no more
today the advancements in sensor
technology is not only much advanced but
also very cheap allowing the
manufacturers to introduce these sensors
into everyday household items today
the introduction of sensors cameras
microphones into everyday household
items is allowing the machines to be
able to touch feel listen speak or even
relate and communicate
today’s intelligent agents like CD
Cortana Alexa Google home are finding
their way into our everyday lives
these agents connected to the central
computers who are managing them these
central computers are almost as if God’s
they are Omni present they are
omniscience and they are omnipotent
and often we are ready to put our trust
into these agents and gods just as we
would put our trust in real God so are
we up against some new gods
we’ll be concerned I for one believe
there is no need to be concerned because
we have not even reached our potential
there much many more advancements that
have yet to come so for instance the
term Internet of Things has already been
expanded to internet of everything by
Google by Cisco so whereas the Internet
of Things is connection machines to
other machines and to machines to the
Internet internet of everything brings
data and process into the equation the
paradigm presented by internet of
everything we are conventional in the
paradigm presented by the internet of
everything
the conventional contributors like
people and machines become the
contributing agents to provide inputs
whereas the differentiating agents like
data and process become the outputs and
hence converting that input into action
and that is the power of internet of
everything for instance a simple
thermostat at home can be connected to
the Internet and it would allow you to
or it will allow the thermostat to
automatically set the home’s temperature
and humidity based on the area’s
forecast but the same thermostat can
also advise the homeowner of the optimal
settings looking at the areas homes of
the same size and in their geographic
location imagine your car being able to
not only by talking to the other cars
not only able to predict the slowdown up
ahead but also have the ability to reset
and reschedule your appointments into
the based on the predicted slowdown this
is indeed the power
of information to generate actions in
the world of internet of everything for
the first time in our history we as
individuals are not limited by our own
individual imaginations the journeys are
not defined by our destinations and time
no longer is a is a factor in terms of
our dictating our terms Internet has
indeed transformed the very basis of
problem-solving for instance when some
people did not like the conventional
banking system they look to the internet
and collaborated with the internet on
the Internet to be able to form the new
electronic cash system independent of
central banks or regulations imposed by
governments hence came the advent of
Bitcoin and blockchain in 2009 so would
the future be simply more of the same or
is it something more
is this something more AI enslaving
humans just the way it was predicted or
showcased in matrix Terminator or AI the
movie accepting my personal limitations
of even understanding the current state
I simply and humbly refer to Ray
Kurzweil the the brilliant mind of today
who had accurately predicted the fall of
Soviet Union and also the spread of
Internet and also the fact that
computers will beat humans at chess
according to him in his book how to
create a mind curve Oh suggests that the
brain brains neocortex has 300 million
pattern recognizers circuits and a
computer could be developed based on
this design to be able to create
artificial intelligence and looking at
the law of accelerating returns he
argues that the hardware
to be able to do that competition will
be ready within her within a few decades
so according to him by the Year 2029
artificial intelligence will be just as
smart as we are and by the Year 2035
artificial we will be able to plug in
our brains into our synthetic as or our
organic brains into the synthetic
neocortex into the cloud to be able to
be seemingly more smarter and again the
synthetic neocortex being in the cloud
and subject to law of accelerating
returns would grow much faster and much
quicker
hence reaching the state of singularity
where technology is much for advanced
than humans by the Year 2045 now to
answer the question would a I enslave
humans in the future I naturally ask
that question first to CD on my on my
phone well series simple answer was
hella Javad I do not understand and then
by me asking this question again and
again CD bombarded me with lots of
documents a lot of lengths and tried to
confuse me so naturally I went back to
Ray Kurzweil again according to Ray he
offers a very foolproof plan to keep hey
I beneficial he believes today as a
global community we have more consensus
on values like democracy Liberty
tolerance and compassion so the plan
should be to be able to integrate these
core values into our societies today so
that the future societies are largely
with which are largely dominated by
artificial intelligence and where
artificial intelligence is intimately
integrated with ourselves it will emerge
from today’s societies
so if we embody these values into our
societies today the future societies
will be based on these values also what
could go wrong thank you
