AI and the Soul

In 2023, Elon Musk issued a warning about Japan’s severe population decline, stating that the country “will lose almost a million people this year.”

Musk emphasized that artificial intelligence (AI) might be the only viable solution to reverse this alarming trend.

Is Elon Musk a fortune teller of population decline? Of AI?

Despite Musk’s forecasting, the population has been declining due to low fertility rates, low birth rates, and high death rates. Since current trends will continue, the world’s population is expected to peak at 8.6 billion in the middle of the century (2050) before declining by nearly 2 billion before the century’s end (2099).

The Push for AI

Proselytizers like Musk suggest that AI can play a main role in supporting society and mitigate the economic and social impacts of population decline. No details are provided on how AI will affect the human soul.

However, plenty of information shows the opposite; that AI will change human nature for the worse. AI is already precipitating an inevitable decline in world population. But such a decline has a purpose, to be discussed later.

First, we will experience a Biodigital Convergence: It won’t be business as usual when the landscape of biodigital convergence sets up its own standards by 2030.

The Metaverse

The emerging enabled digital space of virtual reality is an augmented reality with augmented humans, or Metahumans in a Metaverse. Ask no questions. Just put on the wearable headgear and step into a MESH-reality, cloud-based platform.

The Metaverse is a network of virtual realms, with physical risks:

Identity theft
Cyber bullying
Collection of unauthorized data
Ransomware attacks
Fraud
No regulatory framework
threats from bots
Mental health decline
System outages
New dangers

Transhumanism

Along with physical risks are the unspoken spiritual risks. When a digital identity from mechanical hardware is introduced into the body, the transformation from human to meta-human and posthuman begins.

In a transition to Transhumansim, technology takes hold of the etheric body, a spiritual body embedded in the physical body, resulting in the soul being displaced.

The materialist ideology that man is a machine was first published in the 1748 book, L’Homme Machine, by 18th-century French physician and philosopher Julien Offray de La Mettrie. Not until 1923 did population geneticist, J.B.S. Heldane refresh the concept of Transhumanism. He wrote, “great benefits would come from controlling our genetics and science in general.”

The human body is a machine which winds its own springs. It is the living image of perpetual movement. —L’homme Machine, 1748

By 2020, in an article by Adam Kirch, titled, Looking Forward to The End of Humanity, the explicit message was, “COVID-19 may turn out to be just the kind of crisis needed to turbocharge efforts to create what its advocates call a “transhuman” future.”

Of course, Musk et al, will only proclaim positive aspects of AI, such as a the peer-to-peer (P2P) human BCI interface network to medically track cognitive, and mental changes in the population.

To Preserve The Soul

A healthy respect for the human soul means returning to the 19th century and the words of Rudolf Steiner, the founder of Anthroposophy, who often spoke on the preservation of individual human identity, as the human “I,” also called the ego.

Steiner compared the individual “I,” to the group soul, or consciousness. He said, “If we have not cultivated it, the ‘I’ will not be there as the innermost human essence, and we will remember only a group-I.” (GA 117, 4 December, 1909).

Transhumanism and AI are tools of Ahrimanic dark forces used to obstruct the development of the “I.” Ahriman is the word in Anthroposophy used to describe the dark intelligence (devil) that opposes the light (Christ Impulse).

Although most of us do not see these forces, we must be aware that Ahriman is both Lord of Death, and Lord of Illusion on the physical Earth (Ahriman’s realm). While our task is to move through the Tech Age without fear, we must be aware of its dangers. [See Secret Brotherhoods by Rudolf Steiner].

A group consciousness is being fast-tracked through a digital Blockchain architecture, where economies are built from brain-computer interfaces (BCI) of whole populations. Networks are set up to include humans as nodes on The Internet of Things.

The group soul was part of human evolution millions of years ago. Today, the group soul (from the astral condition) is the experience of animals, who do not have an “I.”

Thus, to choose an artificial “I” (AI) is to revert to an animal-like consciousness, or rather, a hive mind portrayed as The Borg in Star Trek:

Population Decline

There are many reasons for population decline, including poor nutrition. But at least one 2011 long-term German study under real-life conditions showed how WI-FI and Bluetooth microwave frequencies negatively affect everyone, but especially the most sensitive populations of children and chronically ill people.

Similarly, we must also be aware of foreign substances entering the body. In 2021, doctors shamed pregnant women into getting the C19 jab, although this group was left out of trials. Later, research documented a rise in spontaneous abortions, with a statement that the vaccine cannot be declared safe.

Between 2020 and 2021, an annual UK report showed increased rates of stillbirth, neonatal mortality, and late fetal loss across all gestational age groups, after 7 years of year-on-year reduction. In 2022, studies documented lactating women who took the jab, showed that vaccinated parents pass along a new microbiome to the baby.

While we see clear evidence of population decline from technology, one hundred years ago, Rudolf Steiner saw that Earth was in its decline. He urged that we “develop upwards” (with spiritual truths) to prepare for the future.

A clairvoyant Steiner saw that physical procreation will come to an end around the year 5700, partially based on the soul’s inability to remain in the physical body (the etheric body withdraws). Anthroposophy identifies this future time as the sixth cultural age.

Will humans require synthetic bodies in future incarnations? How will that work? The study of Anthroposophy investigates these types of questions.

Both the human physical form and consciousness will be different in the future, just as we were in the past. As we are now in the 5th cultural age (1413 to 3573 AD), humanity and Earth are on track, directed by forces higher than the materialist, Elon Musk.
