Acting: Dramatic Action<\/h2>\n

“And yet a few actors achieve quite a high degree of dramatic art.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

For that few seconds of immortality on stage, is it worth thousands of hours and dedication to the never ending pursuit of the craft?<\/p>\n

Yes.<\/p>\n

As much as we seek for transcendence, the answer to transcendence may lie within ourselves more so than trying to please the audience or critics. It is a lifelong dedication to understanding oneself, and to enact that beauty on stage for that fleeting moment. Like a flower that comes to bloom, it lasts for that few moments before the seasons change. But that tiny glimpse of transcendence is akin to touching the face of God – to be one with the divine.<\/p>\n

“The only real rules in art are the rules we discover for ourselves.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

A \u201cperfect system\u201d requires outliers. As it is in the matrix when the artificial intelligence (AI) created the perfect system, the society destructed. The moment they allowed for outliers to exist, the society rebalanced itself.<\/p>\n

As it is right now the foreseeable threat to my existence is artificial intelligence. Now AI can author books, beat top chess players in the world and soon, they will drive our cars. The moment they make humans redundant it would be the end to us.<\/p>\n

Unless humans can figure out a way to store our consciousness in transhuman android bodies, so that our consciousness live forever in different replaceable bodies, it is very likely AI will control humans like a hive mind IF we are not careful.<\/p>\n

To make my consciousness immortal, I have been writing as much books and articles as possible on the cloud aka the internet, releasing videos, and imparting my cultural legacy before the end of my physical self.<\/p>\n

Eventually I have to merge my consciousness with the cloud and publish my magnum opus, The Scarlet Throne trilogy and short film before my time on earth is an end.<\/p>\n

My artistic works will belong to the AI once it is uploaded on the cloud\/internet.<\/p>\n

I am afraid of self learning AI (deep think) technology and how it impacts the creation of artistic content. If machines could create art, what would happen to our human cultural legacy? I did not predict that they will outdo humans so soon.<\/p>\n

I foresee with almost 100% certainty that it\u2019s either we fuse and merge with artificial intelligence or…. there is no other alternative.<\/p>\n

The new legacy is no longer in acquiring physical objects but in a shared human consciousness.<\/p>\n
