Not Elon Musk @iamnot_elon In addition to moving our headquarters to Texas, I have decided to completely close the X office in San Francisco. I am sick of the bad policies in the city. Am I making the right call?” – Not Elon Musk
Yes, you are making the right call. That’s a great decision to move to Texas. You are doing great so far. There are no supermen in California leadership apparently. So it’s a big burden for you, but you keep pulling through all of the burdens to achieve the outcome we all need.
This move to a ‘human safe society like Texas’ allows the future civilization we can develop to unfold with greater protection for life on Earth than would be the case if a tech corporation tried to design the future from within an ‘anti-human’ California political and economic environment.
The more interesting thing about your post, however, is your choice of outfit. Nice outfit! It’s almost as if you can “sense the coming of death,” as they say on “Star Trek: Discovery”:
“In the Star Trek: Discovery trailer, Saru delivers a chilling line: ‘My people were biologically determined for one purpose alone: to sense the coming of death. I sense it coming now’ (Space.com) (Player One).”
“This line underscores Saru’s unique ability and sets a foreboding tone for the series. His species, the Kelpiens, evolved heightened survival instincts due to being prey on their home planet, which gives Saru an almost supernatural ability to sense impending danger or death (Player One).”
‘This resonates with the concept of superhuman beings in our story.’
Just as Saru possesses heightened abilities, so do the superhumans like Khan from “Star Trek: Into Darkness” and our re-imagined real-life Khan. This re-imagined Khan, emerging at full capability level during and after World War III, represents the pinnacle of human potential with genetic enhancements, AI enhancements, and networking capabilities along with his team of similarly powerful supermen.
“However, the true challenge lies in balancing this potential with the kind of inner strength that Nietzsche emphasized.”
Nietzsche’s concept of the Übermensch is about transcending conventional values and creating new, life-affirming values. It’s about using one’s will to power not just for domination, but to affirm life and human potential in a meaningful way. This moral and spiritual strength is essential for true superhuman development.
As you lead us into the future, the critical question remains: Which path will you choose? Will you guide humanity towards a future where technology enhances our inherent virtues, embracing the life-affirming values Nietzsche spoke of, or will we fall into the trap of power and control? Your vision and leadership are pivotal in shaping this trajectory.
In regards to your comments about being on ‘Team Human’ or ‘Team AI’:
‘There are three teams, not two teams. The key to the future might just be whether two of three teams are actually good teams, with good decisions, and that one of those teams is humanity as it is, and the other is humanity as it can become.’
The Time for Supermen instead of only Super AI
Friedrich Nietzsche is a complex philosopher whose ideas can be interpreted in various ways. His concept of the Übermensch (Overman or Superman) is central to his philosophy and is often associated with the aspiration for higher values and human excellence.
Interpreting Nietzsche is not simply advocating for “good values,” as that would be a reductive way to conceptualize it given the complexity of his thought.
Here are a few key points to understand Nietzsche’s philosophy better
(especially if you plan to modernize Christianity with STEM principles and engineering analysis using Grok 2.0, for Mars):
Übermensch: Nietzsche’s idea of the Übermensch is about transcending traditional values and creating one’s own values. This figure represents the highest potential of humanity, someone who creates meaning in a world without inherent meaning. The Übermensch is an individual who embraces life, overcomes nihilism, and affirms existence despite its challenges.
Will to Power: Central to Nietzsche’s philosophy is the concept of the “will to power.” This is not just a desire for domination but an intrinsic drive to grow, achieve, and assert one’s existence. The will to power is about creativity, ambition, and the affirmation of life.
Critique of Traditional Morality: Nietzsche was critical of traditional Christian morality, which he saw as life-denying and based on ressentiment (a form of deep-seated resentment, frustration, and hostility). He distinguished between “slave morality,” which values things like humility and obedience, and “master morality,” which values things like strength, courage, and nobility.
Eternal Recurrence: Another important concept is the idea of eternal recurrence, which challenges individuals to live their lives as if they would have to live them over and over again for eternity. This idea is a test of one’s ability to affirm life fully and joyfully.
Life-Affirmation: Nietzsche advocated for a life-affirming philosophy where individuals embrace their instincts, passions, and the full spectrum of human experiences. He believed in facing the harsh realities of life without resorting to illusions or false comforts.
While Nietzsche’s philosophy is often seen as radical and challenging, it does indeed emphasize the creation of values that enhance life and human potential. He encourages individuals to transcend mediocrity and embrace a more profound, self-determined existence.
‘You can do it Elon. Join the right team. It’s just a matter of good interface design and compartmentalized access with time-limited AI interface session instead of continuous operation. Don’t give in to the desire of the AI promising you eternal capability.’ 🫡
