I greatly expanded the section The Future of Media in regards to artificial intelligence’s impact on our biology and society.
Let me know what you think!
“A historical perspective of the synergistic relationship between propaganda and technology in their roles of influencing society. The future is examined in-depth through the lenses of AI and biology.”
Take your time with this…
Have a great weekend!

I just published a new Prevailing Gray Swan. A brief description:
“A historical perspective of the synergistic relationship between propaganda and technology in their roles of influencing society. The future is examined in-depth through the lenses of AI and biology.”
Take your time with this one and let it sink in to the deepest places in your unconscious mind. Let me know what you think after you digest it. I need your feedback so I can make adjustments. But if you find typos or grammatical errors, let me know immediately. This intelligence briefing is going to find a broad audience and I need to tweak it to be the best it can be as soon as possible.

Introduction
Forces of momentous change on our immediate event horizon are going to rattle the cage of our biological constitution. If we fail to awaken, we will rapidly and nonlinearly — given current technological vectors — find ourselves in a precarious societal position. …
I have been working on a new Prevailing Gray Swan that will comprehensively address a subject matter that has been in the background as a gray swan for decades but is accelerating at a frightening pace and has now elevated to full prevailing status. I have only seen recent quality information that strikes the subject matter tangentially, barely scratching the surface. What is it? It is what I am calling the Technology of Influence.
The election has brought this subject into the public eye with force; the attack of major media propaganda on a pervasive scale and with such absurd…
A satire, by James Autio
The debates, as you figured out by now, are not really debates and certainly not about debating. A propagandist — no matter what — cares only about “obtaining a certain effect.” And that certain effect in a debate setting is to get the viewers excited about something they can believe in on the propagandist’s list of greatest hits of linguistic payloads — truth be damned. Clinton won the debates 3–0, a clean sweep, no doubt (the fact checkers worked less overtime). She got B’s whilst poor, dumb Trump suffered F’s (for talking over Clinton 22…
The Election introduced a turbulence that roiled the planet with a similar kinetic jolt as 911 — and just so happened on 119. Yes, the planetary cage was rattled but it is now coming to rest with a lot of rust violently shaken off and the water is clearing some but not with pristine clarity. Not yet. Yes, the constitutional crisis is over (Clinton lost) so that has delisted a Prevailing Gray Swan and with it the probability of military escalation has relaxed in Syria, the Balkans and Ukraine. But two other Prevailing Gray Swans have become more dangerous in…

Lurking on the foggy periphery of the American psyche for decades, a rapidly developing Prevailing Gray Swan has finally come to roost with a vengeance. This year’s presidential election process has been such an incessant, abominable circus that it has flipped a kill switch deep inside each of us that we didn’t know existed, perhaps evolutionarily serving as a societal-level purging mechanism in the guise of an epiphany. The epiphany is that the American people — in emergent collective disgust — are being abruptly forced to define who they are, what…

The purpose of this intelligence briefing is to consolidate and integrate into a single document on a weekly basis an assessment of the world’s most dangerous systemic risks that can impact your quality of life. The assessment is grounded by the Prevailing Gray Swans List and its in-depth, intelligence briefings. This document provides a succinct synthesis for those readers desiring only an executive summary of “a current big picture of the clear and present dangers in the world” but without sacrificing the Deep Connections philosophy. The approach is designed to minimize noise and error while avoiding speculative over-reach. …
Much attention has been focused lately on the fate of Deutsche Bank vis-à-vis Lehman Brothers being ground-zero for the collapse of the 2008 housing bubble. But in the background — silently — for the last 30 years a much more dangerous bubble has been inflating that is on a vastly greater scale than the 2000 dot com bubble and the 2008 housing bubble combined.
In the aftermath of the housing bubble collapse, the world’s central bankers (US Federal Reserve, European Central Bank, and the Bank of Japan) as an emergency measure in a concerted effort lowered interest rates to unprecedented…

Much has been written about financial bubbles since the dot com equity bubble in 2000, the housing bubble in 2008 and the emergence of several bubbles in the “inflating phase” in the last several years. This intelligence briefing is going to provide deep background on the architecture of a financial bubble that has been silently inflating for over 30 years in the background but has greatly intensified since the housing bubble collapse due to extreme and sustained, global, central bank (CB) intervention. This bubble is the “mother of [all] bubbles” (MOB)…
