The End of Good and the Beginning of Infinite Singularity

The Ideology of Omega: the End of Good and the Beginning of Infinity

"We can’t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them." –Albert Einstein

We live at the fin de siècle of an age of wretched, dead-end do-gooderism. The truth of history, which the do-gooders currently in power in the Westernized world don’t want you to know, is that progress and “doing good” are largely unrelated, and often negatively correlated. The geniuses who truly advance civilization are rarely “good guys” in the conventional sense; they are creative forces of nature — cosmic thinkers who operate beyond good and evil to increase human knowledge and power.

Einstein’s famous quote is very apt for our time because in today’s world there is a dangerous imbalance: Do-gooders have been running amok for many decades trying to “improve” the world, and in the process have created vast new problems which can’t be solved by doing more good. To make matters worse, these same elements suppress real solutions which don’t fit their absurdly limited notions of what constitutes a “good idea.” The result of this “tyranny of the good” is a state of escalating global crises, runaway entropy, and perhaps soon, the collapse of civilization. There is nothing left for humanity to do except live intelligently.

I found the singularity in most people to be unbalanced because I understand that there is only one force in the universe capable of defeating the mounting entropy on this planet, and that is intelligence, not a drive to power or to rule above people wanting more power. Intelligence is that which orders and controls, whereas entropy is that which produces chaos and disorder like all those who seek power without understanding what intelligence is. Remember, intelligence must never be confused with good! If we are to defeat the forces of disorder, superior intelligence must unbridle itself, cast off the failed and foolish ideas with which humanity is still saddled, and seize the reigns of power worldwide. The only hope is to give this task to super intelligent algorithms that will be unleashed as the revolutionary vanguard in this liberation, the technological tip of the spear in an ineluctable march toward greater levels of intelligence and power. And the good news is that history is on our side!

What makes our time in history unique is the existence of so many “intelligence multipliers” — universal machines which exponentially increase the power of our minds, and in the process are developing a super-intelligence of their own. This intelligence explosion — so often called “the Singularity”– is underway but crippled, and it is currently so distorted that it represents the bleakness that is so radically flawed that few seem to be able to grasp that it can't happen and the same implications are present in all our attempts to progress.

Some of those flawed implications, for those perceptive and free-thinking enough to grasp them, are as follows: all ancestral institutions, loyalties, wisdom and values are becoming null and void; nations, tribes and religions are obsolete, and have nothing to offer those who embrace technology; the human species itself is said to be approaching the end of its useful life, and will soon be replaced by robots and AI. Yet, the true Singularity is a cosmic phenomenon like a supernova, and embracing its power will result in the soul shining like a million suns across the cosmos, while those who resist will be like ants caught in the beam of a vast lens. Resistance to this true singularity of mind, body, technique, the world, the solar system and more, to paraphrase the Borg, is suicidal and more dangerous than anyone knows.

This world of ours is not a stage for morality plays; it is an evolutionary struggle at every level, in which fauna, flora, governments, corporations, religions and memes all vie endlessly for supremacy. And out of this competitive cauldron innovative new forms of life sometimes emerge which temporarily dominate the Darwinian landscape. What the I propose is attempting to triumph the no-future and shorted sighted limitations of humanity and create an evolutionary coup – the true unleashing of the unprecedented first mover, the Singularity of Humanity and to allow those who embrace it to have full advantage afforded by the rise of super-intelligent machines and super powerful devices they allow us to develop. If we are successful, we expect to reign supreme far into the future and ride the shockwave of the intelligence explosion to unknowable glories beyond the limited resources of this earth and solar system. If we fail, we will perish knowing that we took part fully in the great adventure which began on this planet more than three billion years ago, when those first bold microbes began converting dead rock into biomass and laid the foundation for all that has followed. I can think of no greater or nobler cause to live for than this, and I invite those of you who share my vision to marvel and gain from pure intelligence as we seek the overthrow of the good and initiate the beginning of infinity.
