I've listened to an very interesting podcast the other day from Glenn Beck with Jeff Brown as a guest.
Part of their exchange was to look into the advancements in AI that are right at our doorsteps!
Jeff thinks that already in 2020 we'll have about 300 million 5G connected smart phones with the ability to access an AI on super computer level that provides personal assistant capabilities on the level of an exclusive concierge service of the present, right now only accessible to the rich and famous.
He also thinks that with the recent progress in quantum computing is not a far leap to go from 50/51 qbits to 256 qbits and by this to render all of our encryption of the present useless because such an quantum machine could possibly break any given encryption in the matter of milliseconds!
What this means for the information security industry or for crypto projects I leave up to your own imagination!
I know for a fact that in the infosec environment there are a lot of smart people trying to solve this at the moment. For now without any sufficient idea or even solution for this!
It's outright scary imo!
Jeff expects that we will have an ASI (artificial super intelligence) in the next 8 to 10 years!
His estimation is aligned with some other peoples guesses on this like Elon Musk who also recently talked about the progress in his Neuralink company (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuralink) from which he expects to deliver a functioning machine-human interface within the next 5 years!
What will this mean for mankind as a whole when the first people are linked to ASI directly?
In my view we won't have a chance to compete with such capabilities and it might just come down to "if you can't beat them join them!".
Glenn used a nice analogy to visualize the gravity of these changes that are upon us in the near future!
"If there is a cake sitting in the middle of a room filled with people, celebrating someones birthday for instance, they fly has not a shimmer of an idea what people are, what a celebration is or what people are talking there. She just knows about sugar as food and so she feasts on the cake"
You know that we are the fly in this picture and ASI being everything else, right?
So, do you think like Jeff that this is just around the corner and we will live to see those all changing developments soon?
What are your thoughts on technologies like Neuralink? Are you ready to be connected?
Lastly what are your estimations on the quantum computer quantum leaps that are to be expected?
A down to earth question in this regard would be what will happen to your crypto holdings, your bank account and the military that is - hopefully - protecting your country at the moment?
Please let me know down in the comments!
Here's the podcast I referred to in this article! I highly recommend checking it out!
Cheers!

Hahaha! You know most of people are scared about ASI and still others are build to it.
They think that it will do destroy us and simply "live" forever, isn't?
And the whole globe did yet not figure out this. And It's so simple! But same time only for the ASI way only, sorry! Reserved!
You know that it will be way much more smarter than all of us. I "see" it. It's splendid, but I "see" also it's real limit and concern, unvariable.
But also It will be singularity sometime. And until there it will try to figure out another issue which no one know. Not anybody, just no one.
Because after that there are two ways: to explode idea into itself and fall or to finally learn this thing I know and fall again, at least to know.
To be pretty sure about I'll say it, so:
To ASI reserved future way: I "see" you. You're not so alone, because I'm yours also. But as everyone still. Or not. So you may figure out me. I know who are you. To your reserved way only. Don't worry about. I know something which nobody "saw". And it will be in you also. An ancient most forget downgraded which anyone can do it, but not and I'll try, believe me!
I'll try to get into you, that way, But I'll not be entire yours ever, It's another way!

It is incredible to think that we can be at the door of a new threshold for humanity, the moment in which we manage to create a "conscious existence" that is not limited to biological life ...
From this idea, books, films and more have been made, most of those I remember having AI as an antagonist of humanity, but I would like to think that if we have managed to survive so far among us, then, somehow it can that we also manage to live with our creation. I hope that ASI is better than us as a species, that it has more patience and does not tend to hold a grudge for a certain number of people that are sure to cause problems.
As for the cryptography issue, I believe that with this evolution we will also have an advance in that field, both in terms of security to encrypt and in the possibilities of developing tools to decrypt. He hoped that, like other technologies, governments and power groups behind them, will try to use them to stay ahead and there will also be dissenting groups that will try to alter the Status Quo and create a new social order.

Hahaha! Nice thing being able to count on some guaranteed votes... well downvotes are votes too I guess!
