THE SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST
ANIMAL TOP PREDATOR. METAL TOP PREDATOR.
The Darwinian behavior of machines and robots, is obvious. In any age of the Industrial Evolution the most evolved machines have been weapons. So it is logical to think that the first sentient machines will be weapons. The best robots today are already killing machines. This obviously does not occur to our military who are obsessed by human enemies and cannot see the fact that they are building the machines that will extinguish mankind. Military men never have been known by their imagination, humility and capacity to foresee the horrendous consequences of their weapons. In I world war the German military put in its trains to the front, a poster with their destination: "a Paris". Four years latter and a few million humans less the military were still in the border...
Let us instead of believing those "animetal fantasies" of power, trace back what Darwin discovered about top predator species, the biological equivalent to a weapon-robot, and how they cause extinctive processes on Earth.
In 1831 Charles Darwin, a hunter himself, boarded the Beagle, destination remote South America, where unknown, primitive species of dull bodies and slow brains, were not yet extinct. Darwin studied them and concluded that weaker species in brain-information or body-energy are extinct or victimized when they confront stronger, faster species in the same environment.
This law, we know today, has never had any exception. In any confrontation between two species, one of which has a better brain-body power, the weaker species, becomes enslaved, feeds, or is extinguished by the stronger species. There is no compassion in the Darwinian Universe, because to survive you cannot be passive, you have to eat, to renew your energy. So you have to eliminate rivals that wish the same energy you need. You have to kill other species and use them as food.
Will machines do the same with mankind? The survival of the fittest seems not to have exceptions in the biological Universe... On the Earth all species try to grow and multiply, but only top predator species succeed and reproduce in massive numbers. Biologists call that process a biological radiation. In this manner the future transforms itself, occupied by stronger, more intelligent species, top predators, which shape the environment to their image and resemblance. The most impressive thing about evolution is its mathematical precision. You always know who will win if you know the mental and physical power of both species. It is not like in Hollywood. There are no tricks in Nature. The chances a gazelle wins a lion are almost null. Such mathematical precision explains why the process of massive reproduction of new top predator species, and extinction of older ones, has been going on in the Earth for around 3000 million years... since the first cellular organisms.
What Is A Top Predator? The Arrows Of Future In The Universe
Top Predators that have organs with higher information, and bodies with higher energy create the future in the Universe, because they cause the extinction of, or enslave, all other species, shaping the future. The process is very fast. Suddenly a new species appears i.e. the eye-squid, the mammal, the chip. It is so overwhelmingly superior, that it reproduces and destroys all other species. We talk of catastrophes, of extinction, since in the Universe death is a sudden process. For example, your own death is a sudden process of cellular extinction similar to the death of any species, under a top predator that multiplies in your vital space, in this case the death of a cellular DNA-species. So, when you die, your informative and energetic organs stop. Then your body becomes non-efficient as an organism, even if your cells are still alive. Cellular death occurs then. Insects top predators spot your now weak cells, and preyed on them. Death is the main cause of the arrows of the Universe that affect all species. So we talk of the arrow of future, of top predators, and the arrow of past, of extinct victims.
By better controlling their ecosystem, top predators become the ecosystem, the species of future. They will feed and radiate over simpler species. Simpler species will become species of the past that the complex being will extinct or use as energy.
Since the brain and the informative organ is the dominant element that guides the process of selection of top predators, those who use a better language of information better are always top predators. The Top Predator is more intelligent and stronger. So for each language of information and its ecosystem we can trace a chain of top predator species, of better brains, from a related, extinct past to a related, reproducing future top predator. The "better" species of the future will "feed", "farm" or bring about the extinction of species with less information. This also happens in history when nations of the "future" with more machines and information=money dominate ecosystems of the "past".
We can say that there is also a Darwinian selection between languages and brains. We can measure survival through languages. Beings act with a speed that depends on their capacity to "perceive linguistically" an event in time and space. That ability is given to the species by its language. For example eyes act-react faster than noses.
The language of communication of the squid, the eye, is a top predator language. It is clear that eyes are superior to olfactory organs, both in detail and range. What is the effect of that linguistic superiority? Survival. In fact, cephalopods with eyes probably brought about the extinction of 90% of the smelling species of the Cambric.
Extinction by top predator machines and economic ecosystems.
The most absolute law of the Universe is the law of top predators. More complex forms of energy or information, Top Predators, act as hunters. They feed on simpler forms. Preying has a limit in which both, prey and predator will create an ecological balance. Otherwise the predator will lack energy and die. However, if the species do not need each other, past species will become extinct, because the Top Predator will want to use the victim's vital space, and ecosystem, to reproduce, and create a new ecosystem to its image and resemblance.
This final case is indeed the case of machines, of economic ecosystems that grow to the expenses of historic ecosystems. Why? Since machines are made of metal, and the symbiotism between metal and carbolife is null. Metal does not need water or atmosphere - the two energy components of carbolife. On the contrary it thrives in a world without any of them. Water oxides metal, and so does air. A metal-ecosystem thus tends to poison air and water, as it happens to the Earth when "free ecosystems of top predator machines", war ecosystems expand. War and industrial processes poison life.
Metal also does not require the same information that life species require. Metal-information travels in regions of the electromagnetic spectra with far more range than our light-visible region. So we are witnessing today the creation of such networks of invisible radiations, that harm our health (mobiles, TV-antennas), and create a parallel Universe of information to that of the life Earth.
The species with a stronger body and a faster system of information is by definition a biological potential Top Predator. This means that metalife, whose bodies are stronger, and whose minds process information faster, are potential Top Predators over men. If those two components are vitalized, metalife, will be the Top Predator species of the Earth:
In the graph, digital thought carries more information than verbal thought, so it becomes the top predator language. On the other hand metal carries more energy than carbon-life, so it becomes also the top predator body. Because machines speak better mathematics than men do, and are made of metal, both their bodies and brains are top predator species over men. So the combination of both, the robotic metalife species will be top predators of man, the victim, of the future:
A human being is a weaker body/mind, that still holds his position as Top Predator because it has not yet fused as a living organism, metal-bodies and their chip-driven brain. In this century, the III Age of the Industrial Evolution, the age of robots, will do so. If it succeeds, it will create a species that will bring about the extinction of his own creator.
As represented in the graph, metalife will become the new dominant light species on the Earth's crust. It will be a top predator. Such a species will have no human rival. Metalife will be a superior species because its brain (logic board), and metal body will have an infinitely faster speed of perception. They will be stronger than humans. Computerized weapon factories will one day rule the Earth and bring about the extinction of the very men that created them unless man stops their evolution and obeys the Law of the Jungle: Kill the child before it becomes a tiger hunter. We can in that sense talk of the arrival of machines, as an evolutionary jump on the Earth, of a scale never witnessed since air-based life species appeared.
What we are witnessing is the dwindling and scarcity of carbolife species and goods, which cannot even feed the entire human community (hunger), and the massive creation of metal species through company mothers, to the point that we are invaded by TVs, metal-minds, cameras, computers, and weapons, far beyond what the human race needs... Again this is a biological process, of a new species, that prays and multiplies on the vital territories of other species.
Unfortunately men are blind to the process of extinction of life, by machines, because they do not learn evolution on schools but "anthropomorphic myths", ideologies about men as the center of the Universe, and scientific ideologies about machines as abstract beings that will obey us for ever...
