You’ve probably heard the rhetoric surrounding, “job creation,” recently in the news… but what if we started a new conversation? What if… we started a conversation about eliminating jobs, altogether? And many corporations have already begun this process of trimming employees in favor of technology based automation services. Furthermore, modern Ai technology is already replacing; cashiers, bank attendants and fast food operators. Whereby, in fact… in the near future even teachers could be replaced by Ai technology!

So, with that being said... let's begin today by discussing my new app launching on ArtificialIntelligenceProject.com and this app is a Depression Counseling Ai System that I designed myself with the intention to explain emotional states… to people who are currently battling depression.

But WHY? (Modern Stress)

I’ve built this app because... today in America… there are roughly 325 million Americans but not 325 million jobs and this is an ill fated consequence of the information age. Whereby, I believe that it’s time to admit that we're living in an age where more and more people are both more connected and more stranded than ever before.

Which is to say… that in today’s America… people are literally being BRED OUT of the gene pool as illustrated much more clearly than in past decades via social media profiles.

In my opinion technology is replacing jobs… but, “likes and retweets,” are also quickly becoming the new currency of both social awareness and marketing strength. Furthermore, many Americans (myself included) are often left to suffer through, “friendless social media profiles,” illustrating and quantifying young people’s self esteem. Whereby, I believe that this circumstance of quantification and new technology is an ill fated bi-product of the computer revolution that we are ALL experiencing simultaneously, today.

So, for those reasons I’ve invented an Ai Depression Counseling System which can be found on ArtificialIntelligenceProject.com... and this is the beta version or test version for which I hope can help those coping with deep seeded depression and even suicidal depression on social media today. But to further clarify this, “Ai Depression Counseling Application,” attempts to give the user a robotic, “Ai Counselor,” whom they can talk to about their problems and which offers advice and coping methods. Whereby, this Ai works to explain emotional states while giving the user an ability to gain insights into their own personal feelings and it’s of my belief that this, “Ai Depression Counseling System,” is of the utmost importance on the internet today, for these reasons.

Because I had to act… I had to invent something to combat this new form of depression.

So, I’ve built the beta Ai Depression Counseling System. Furthermore, I plan on developing more sophisticated versions of this Ai Depression Counseling System in the near future as well and hopefully this style of counseling can be appreciated and helps some people out. Whereby, I strongly believe that many people can benefit from this type of Ai which was designed to give people a clearer perspective into their own emotional state of being.

.

Also, in the near future… I believe that this type of technology could usher in a great deal of conversation and that this type of technology has a great deal of implications, particularly in terms of, “job markets,” as well as how human beings interact with one another.

-HERD THEORY-

And one of my most profound theories, which I plan on implementing into my next Ai app, I call, “herd theory.”

Whereby, I originally developed my, “herd theory,” 6-7 years ago when I first became fascinated by Ai psychology. Whereby, simply put I plan on using this theory along with other theories… to create better and better Ai systems moving forward. Then, over time it’s my hope that my next Ai will successfully pass the Turing Test. (*Passing the Turing Test is akin to creating a chat-bot which is unrecognizable as a machine.)

But Herd theory is a main cornerstone to accomplishing this feat, in my opinion. (And this is only one aspect of the Ai project but since; Google, Microsoft, DeepMind, Tesla, FB and a dozen other companies are vigorously working to beat me to the punch, here it goes.)

Herd Theory Explained

But my version of Herd Theory goes something like this… “almost all emotional triggers,” are tied to the human sense of ego similar to a flock of Geese. So then this theory revolves around the concept that humans evolved long ago into, “herd animals,” and that as, “herd animals,” humans naturally create, “hierarchies,” in their brains upon the moment that they encounter or concieve an idea or social order. Whereby, this innate and often sub conscious level of thinking begins from the moment people step foot into any new environments or are surrounded by different objects or beings in relation to their own ego.

And in theory this mental state is due to the evolutionary course of millenia's of herding and migration amongst the human race. But upon the second a human encounters any sort of stimulus we create hierarchies in our brain and that triggers our ego to create an emotional reaction, is basically the jist of it. So this is akin to our own personal allocation of pride and self asserted confidence tied to the ego but related through emotional triggers (*it’s very Freudian). Whereby, these, “sub conscious hierarchies,” then manifest into ego… then along this line of thought the human consciousness triggers all of it's emotion or emotional responses based upon egotistical hierarchy's and reference points. And this works through our own sense of, “pride,” where this pride then manifests into our daily lives and is then connected to our ego as we place it in various things and subject matters. Henceforth… it is this, “pride,” which forms the ego, inside of our own personal, “hierarchies,” and this then becomes the, “root,” of ALL human emotional triggers.

And this, "theory," is really almost a sub-conscious level of human awareness. However, this is a good way of thinking about our own emotional responses, as well as programming Ai and I find this theory particularly useful because emotional triggers are also subject to free will. Meaning, that by becoming cognizant (or aware) of one’s own personal emotional triggers, one can better adapt, when responding to emotions on a daily basis.

Ai 2.0 Coming ASAP!

And I plan on using this theory to build a better Ai, hopefully to pass the Turing Test… later on this year ideally (UPDATE: *or 3-5 years from now). And this app I am calling The AI Project: Ai 2.0. and I then plan on using this app, to build a better… long term Ai Depression Counseling System. Whereby, I should complete both of those upcoming applications later this year. (UPDATE: *or in 2022-2023-2024.)
