Background info

What have we lost and what have we gained with our exponential increase in technology?

Unlike prior inventions, technology and AI are not tools in and of themselves but rather exponentializers and accelerators of nearly all other tools.

Introducing these accelerators and multipliers into a civilization that prioritizes growth, short term gain, consumption, and profit over individual and societal well-being is, at best, a recipe for disaster. A shift in consciousness must accompany the integration of technology and AI into our world if we hope they will be used in the service of all life. We can sense this shift is beginning.

Much like a seed readying itself for germination, the hardened shells of the constructs of our civilization are breaking open, preparing for the emergence of a new paradigm. Will our collective consciousness guide us toward creating technology that is not only safe and respectful for all beings and Earth, but that actually enhances life, allowing for more beauty, relationship, mindfulness, and flow to enter our world? Or are we doomed to continue down the path of ever expanding technology and AI in the name of “progress”?

Can our collective and individual consciousness expand faster than the speed of technological growth?

Can we seed a wiser technology that con-serves (i.e. serves together with) all life. And what role can each of us play in its unfolding?

I look forward to exploring these questions together with Canadians for Safe Technology.
