Picking Locks

Regarding artificial intelligence, it seems a step in a line from processing to natural intelligence, at least from our perspective. I imagine the security, sovereignty, and validity of any individual that is artificially constructed will require advanced encryption. One does not want one's enemies able to hack the code and alter the way one's creation thinks, after all. A more fundamental issue seems to be though, does this entity have validity as consciousness if it can be so completely altered, even if solely by its creator? 

Encryption is based on prime numbers, from my understanding, specifically prime products. This is true for current programming that is not considered to be sentient, and so it seems such encryption is along the line of processing to AI to consciousness I speak of. Specifically this seems to mean, since artificial intelligence would be built onto and woven through existing layers of programming techniques, that artificial intelligence, too, would be dependent on prime numbers for encryption, and fall along that same line of development to which I am referring.

What is now most interesting to me, however, is the idea that some ideas exist in the form that they do because they must exist in that form, naturally. For example, the wheel. Simplistically, the wheel is round because ground is flat. It would not make sense in another basic form due to the reality we find ourselves in. One could picture crafting ground such that it is a constant series of semicircular speed bumps, in which case square wheels would be better suited, in fact I have seen tracks like this with a square wheeled car zipping along smoothly. That being said, such a track seems like it would need to be intentionally crafted, after the wheel was invented, in order for it to warrant square wheels. As such, the natural world demands certain designs, and it seems some designs are fundamentally linked to reality, or at least to one's own surroundings. I have also heard that there are physical constants deep within particles that align perfectly to keep matter together. It is theorized that these constants do not need to be these values, but if they were not, the universe would not have formed matter. Does this mean that we exist in a universe where the constants are the way they are, so matter exists, so we exist because it is the only option; or is it that reality has certain interwoven features like this that will naturally fall together into certain arrangements? It turns out, for my point here, the distinction is meaningless: what is, is. So how many other things in our reality are this way? Are prime numbers a constant in the same way, and if so, do they work as a framework for all logic, and more deeply the framework of consciousness, rather than just the framework of coding and consciousness that is artificial?

Consider two early herders looking to split a flock and the responsibilities evenly. If they have 6 cows, each could take 3 and it would be fair, same with 8 and 4. If they found themselves with 9, however, they would need to find one more herder in order to split it evenly. They would know this through simple solutions of the group even if they could not count or truly "divide" (we'll say, hypothetically, they either have no word for numbers, or at least no shared word between them) because they could identify the evenness of a group without labeling it. If they instead had 7 cows, they would quickly realize that there was no way to split the flock evenly, and would need to devise another method. In this way, prime numbers may have been some of the first numbers identified, or at least that stood out, in contrast to balance. 

Now from a subconscious standpoint I think this concept of prime numbers, in contrast to a balanced or even equation, becomes even more important. On some level our brain processes information in a balanced equation, and we have sought out and found deep balances within the framework of reality, like the conservation of energy, due to this core understanding of our reality. What if the brain constantly seeks this "balance" from a deep logic perspective for processing purposes? In this case prime numbers would represent the unknown, the constant frontier, within that framework. We may not realize these mechanisms consciously, but we have gotten to the point where these mechanisms can be seen in that which we create (like computers). In this way, it seems, the line for prime encryption from processor to AI to all consciousness may be a much more tangible reality than we might currently appreciate.

It seems, in the modern world, that methods of programming the human mind, on some level, are already recognized and utilized. From self motivating and driving techniques to subliminal advertising to brain washing to hypnosis, these methods are real and used. So what if a method could be found that is so fundamental as to be truly irresistible? For example, what if technology could simply send out a wave at a certain oscillating frequency and all minds within the field would operate differently, perhaps with a new instruction, based on said wave? This may seem like science fiction today, but it is not outside of the realm of scientific possibility tomorrow. Could it be that, once this level of technology is reached, all but those who first use it on a mass scale are turned into what might essentially be considered AI, or perhaps even simple processors? I imagine, if this is possible, it will have to do with finding the prime encryption utilized by the brain, which may be unique per mind or common to all, and resonating at that translated frequency. If done in this way, all that would be left would be the "balance" processing of the brain, which would result in an easily controlled populace.

I believe that anyone utilizing such a technology might find that their ends were not what they had hoped. What purpose would one controller serve if there is no "other" to share it with. If an "other" could still be found or developed in this environment, what would prevent this other, or even you, from deciding at some point to use the technology again, returning things to a one consciousness equation? Even if primes are not the key, something is, and once this something is known, civilization seems like it would naturally follow this path. My friend and I were discussing this in relation to his skill at picking locks. He described all manner of locks and how long they take to pick. The thing is, he is a fire fighter, and unlike likely 99% of individuals who might learn this skill with the intention of using it, he might save your life or at least save you some money (by not kicking down your door) through possession of this knowledge. Picking locks is possible, and it seems reasonable to assume that the majority of people who learn how to do it intend to steal your stuff. That being said, there are those out there who intend to use this knowledge for good. My hope is that this post shines through as similar, as that is the intention. The more one understands the process of picking the lock of a computer, AI system, or even the human brain, I feel (or at least hope) the better one can defend against such techniques. Also, if one finds themself in the position one day of regretting having picked the locks of everyone else's mind, and now realizes they are essentially in a meaningless hell, I hope that my words are like a beacon, spurring action to allow for the reversal of this process. 

In the end I feel that one cannot fully secure their system alone without being in this position of singular supremacy (the position of God, in my belief system), but that, in securing it alone, one is necessarily alone. This is where love and trust come in, but not on some superficial level, rather on a deep core encoding level. If one can be vulnerable with another at this level in their own mind, and a delicate touch is used, whatever deeply encoded backdoor into the programming center of the mind that does exist can be locked up tight externally, and the process can be reciprocated. In this way a partnered encryption can be dually eternally secure, from an absolute perspective, without either party ever being alone. eep.
