People want and deserve to see themselves reflected in technology. We believe that the suite of tools known as “artificial intelligence” can include thoughtful, supportive, and inclusive technologies that benefit our communities. However, we also believe that AI is seldom the solution and its advance should not be treated as inevitable.

The Mother of the MATRIX.

MATRIX TERMINATOR

http://www.matrixterminator.com/

Science Fiction writer, Sophia Stewart, also known as the Seer of Science Fiction, is a keen example of this phenomenon. Child prodigy, prolific writer poet, creative genius, and visionary are just a few of the terms used to describe Sophia Stewart and her profound literary legacy.

In her novel, “The Third Eye,” she writes of a society controlled entirely by autonomous machines known as sentinels.

A reality in which ordinary human beings live underground in a world known as Zion while the rest of humanity falls victim to an all-knowing computer simulation, more formally known as The Matrix. A world in which many today would argue is no longer science fiction, and indeed actually exists.
