Today Friedrich Nietzsche's overman is more topical than ever before.

 Today Friedrich Nietzsche's overman is more topical than ever before. 


The overman and the AI: AI will never make decisions for humans. Except if humans will not allow the AI to make that thing. If people who have free will allow the AI to make decisions for them, that thing is made possible. The AI can take control. 

But in this case, humans allow it to make that thing. Humans are things that give the tools to AI to take control. In the same way, we can ask, "Why do some people, like bloody dictators rise to power"? The answer is simple. People who support those dictators are also responsible for dictators staying in control 

Friedrich Nietzsche and his "overman" or "over human" theory that the creature with higher morals, higher capacity, and higher intelligence level abilities will rise over "regular people". Nietzsche created his idea from the people's need to be under control, and he mentioned that character in his novel "Antichrist"  (Der Antichrist). 





The question in this "overman" is what means high moral? Does high morale mean mass murders? I think that the answer is "no". So did Nietzsche mean that people think their leaders are something else than themselves? And did he criticize some people's need to give their thoughts and will to their leaders? 

The overman is a character that is always criticized. The overman is the thing that justifies horrifying actions. And that thing means that the overman is the thing that is sometimes whipped from philosophy courses. The question is: do people who justify their violence by overman characters have high morale?  

The overman is the character that causes questions. Was Jesus some kind of overman? That thing means that I criticize Christianity. But then again, are bloody actions like the mass murder of Indians during colonialism some kind of Christianity? Were people who made those actions real Christians, even if they made their actions in the name of our religion? Did they follow the morality of Christianity?  


When we think of abilities that make humans superior we must say that intelligence and the ability to transfer abstraction are things. That makes us superior to other species. Also, group work and technology give us the position that makes us an almost dominating species. But things like epidemics are our problem. 

The fact is this. We develop our society. We develop technology, but we don't develop ourselves. We still are hunter-collectors who worked under the weather. That thing causes a situation that the biggest threat to us is the diseases of the standard of living. Our life is too easy. And that brings fat to our body. 

Genetic engineering makes species more adaptable and more capable than ever before. Or actually, humans are not so adaptable. Things like houses are making us adaptable. But without houses, we are very vulnerable. Or maybe we will start to use our intelligence. And start to build houses. 





But genetic engineering allows us to develop something inside us. That thing brings immortality to us. Technically is possible to create the human clones and then brain implants will drive data to their brain. The brain-implanted microchips make it possible. The person can store all memories in the computer's memory. And then those memories can transfer to the cloned body. 

Genetic engineering makes it possible to create over humans. The thing is that maybe humans can tell us, that we should stop to use carbon as a power source. The carbon emissions, climate change, and other things like wars show one thing. The biggest threat to humans is the human itself. 

Those things are interesting. And today the overman is more current than ever before. New things like DNA, CRISPR, AI, and nanotechnology. Genetic engineering makes it possible to remove genetically hereditary abilities from people. So is it a non-moral action to give people who are born handicapped a chance to normal life? We who have no those diseases might think that it's OK. that if a person is born with genetic disorders. But we are not that person. Things like genetically grown meat created from cloned muscle cells can make food production more human than it is. 



Knowledge and civilization make humans better than other species. So, as a species, we are "over" other species. But still we depend on other species. Without other species we will face extiction. And that's why we should concern the nature, environment, and climate chancing. 

The ability to remove Alzheimer's and other kinds of things can improve people's lives. Genetic engineering and artificial evolution can also make it possible to create super soldiers. The system works horse breeding. The operators can select the most qualified Navy Seal operators. And then fertilize the siblings of another Navy Seal team operator. Those groups could be two universities or any other well-documented groups. 

That allows researchers to make people, whose genetic background is the best as possible. In this model, the service records and some laboratories are the only needed things. Genetic engineering makes it possible to create animals and humans with certain abilities. Things like genomes that make the dogs so obedient can connect with human genomes. And that thing makes it possible to create obedient but intelligent people. 

That kind of technology requires responsibility. And that means we should think about abilities. That genetic engineering brings. All things that those things bring are not good. The opportunities are big. And genetic engineering can someday give humans the ability to make interstellar travels. The nanotechnology can keep the DNA in condition. 

In the more primitive model, the immortal crew can transfer their memories to the next-generation crew members. In that model when the spacemen will turn old, the system clones their bodies. And the system will transfer memories to those clones.

Schrödinger's cat: and the limits of that idea.

"In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment concerning quantum superposition". (Wikipedia, Schrödinger's cat). But the same thing can use as model for many other thought experiments.  Sooner or later, or at least in the ultimate end of the universe, the Schrödinger's cat will turn into wave movement. The information that this cat involved exists but the cat does not exist in its material form. The information doesn't ever vanish. It just turns its shape.  We are all trapped in the universe and time. The universe is the space that is entirety to us. There are no confirmed other universities. But the multiverse is a logical continuum for the expanding galactic megastructures.  The problem with natural things is this. They are black and white. They exist or do not exist. Could there be something, that exists and not exists at the same time?  Scrödinger's cat is thinking experiment about case their cat is not dead or not alive. But in this...

The string theory offers a new way to calculate Pi.

"Scientists discovered a new series for pi through string theory research, echoing a 15th-century formula by Madhava. By combining Euler-Beta Functions and Feynman Diagrams, they modeled particle interactions efficiently. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Leap in Mathematics) People normally think that. The pi is the ratio of the circumference circle's circumference to the circle's diameter. The Pi is a mathematical constant 3.14159..., the endless decimal number. The Pi is interesting because developers can use that decimal number to make the encryption algorithms stronger.  The idea is that the encryptions program hides the message's original ASCII numbers by multiplicating those numbers with some decimal number. Or the system can add some numbers to those ASCII numbers.  "Aninda Sinha (left) and Arnab Saha (right). Credit: Manu Y" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Le...

There are always more than three actors in the real world.

"An international research team is advancing precision timekeeping by developing a nuclear clock using thorium isotopes and innovative laser methods, potentially transforming our understanding of physical constants and dark matter. (Artist’s concept.) Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Unveiling the Thorium Nuclear Clock and Its Time-Twisting Secrets) From Three-body problem... There are no pure three-body systems in nature. There are always more than three components in the system. For making real three-body systems we must separate those three bodies from the environment. Otherwise, there are stable effects. But nobody can predict some effects like distant supernova explosions or sun eruptions.  And one of those things that affect all bodies is time. When radioactive materials decay. That affects the stability and symmetry of the object.  Energy levels affect the existence of things like neutrons. The thorium atom clocks are next-generation tools for time measurement....
