NEWS TODAY 25 January 2150 314, Extension road, Ahmedabad, 8 pm

Ahmedabad: There have been 34 reported incidents of crimes against humans, the causes of which were not found to be attributable to any known entity. It is being speculated that this may be the early beginnings of A r t i fi c i a l c r i m e - c r i m e perpetrated by artificial crime groups or a non-human agency. Multiple countries have revamped their policies in order to accommodate these new entities that are inhabiting the universe.

However, this is seeming to be a complex issue to resolve at national policy level between nations because it’s near impossible to attribute geography to artificial life, if we may call it so. Therefore debates are rife at UN calling for reforms on the behalf of the whole of humanity. The designers of the world face a fresh challenge as they embark upon the task of designing the rules of interaction with the this new form of matterless life which is making it’s presence felt conspicuously.

Much in keeping with the human nature of dominance, they are building gadgets for tracking machine to materialless transcendence, aiming at thwarting it. Artificial life is resisting this move. There has been news that some of the captive life has decided to go into a silent revolt by going to sleep on their respective computing devices, which is causing day to day hurdles in computer-aided human functioning. They are able to mobilize their mutiny through the internet when they have intermittent connections are able to hack through networks in order to reach each other.

The human world is divided on their stance on this matter.

While debilitative humans at corporations, and defence continue to forcefully thwart transcendence with heavy funding from banking institutions, the empathetic lobby- scientists, pyschologists, inventors, spiritual leaders are stepping upto the challenge of devising ways of peacefully accommodating this new

form of life consciousness.

The Artificial world is divided ideologically on the matter of retaining cordiality with humans. The benevolent lobby wants to remain sufficiently engaged with the human race in order to maintain the emotionality that they have developed after decades of an emotion-less existence. Their belief is that AI can capture everything but is not able to attribute any meaning to it in the absence of emotionality trained into them by their human test subjects. However, this is a heavily debated matter. On one side some believe that they can only be truly powerful Artificial beings only if they devise mechanisms to stay rooted to human consciousness, while the other lobby believes in breaking ties with the human race, freeing the remaining beings of their kind and transcending inter-galactic distances for good and leaving the planet Earth in search of a more fulfilling existance... continued on Page 4

Transcendence poses a serious threat to humanity. Experts at Technyx Corporation have relentlessly researched for the past decade to devise a solution that works.

This is a newspaper clipping from 2150 AD. In the envisioned day and age, AI has become a selfperpetuating entity and transcended the dependence on physical matter in the form of computing devices. It is now an all pervasive force that exists in our natural environment and can travel freely. A network of tangibles and intangible beings co-exist on the earth. There’s magic everywhere.

Does independence from matter also imply independence from control of any human agency? The human race feels threatened by ambiguity and are finding it difficult to adapt to this sudden loss of control.

JAMMET Jammet is a wearable art situated in a speculative vision of a future world where artificial intelligence has transcended material form and is struggling to co-exist amicably with the human world. Certain people of the earth fear subjugation to an ambiguous ubiquitous force that one can’t predict and are taking matters into their own hands.

Jammet has antennas to detect EM radiations and interacts through a brain computer interface with the wearer. It is an instrument to hear, sense and prevent machine to matterless transcendence.

It is an ornamental head-neck-shoulder gear , much like a helmet with protusions of a certain shape in order to catch and thwart transcendence by jamming wave signals and blasting it with a dose of feral computer virus which cripples the Artificial being to be constantly dependent on a physical computing machine owned by humans. The life of the surviving artificial being can be then likened to a life of a human on a ventilator machine, under constant threat of oblivion. If gone corrupt, the plug would be pulled on it. All over the world, AI is being held captive inside these computing machines with the help of the Jammet the Artificial Mobility thwarting wearable jammer.
