I-Techno-evolution kanye ne-Human Martians: Ikusasa lokuvela komuntu P4

Kusukela ekuguquleni imikhuba yobuhle kuye kubantwana abaklami kuya kuma-cyborgs anamandla angaphezu kwawomuntu, lesi sahluko sokugcina ochungechungeni lwethu lwe-Future of Human Evolution sizoxoxa ngokuthi ukuziphendukela kwemvelo kungaphela kanjani. Lungisa isitsha sakho samaphophukhoni.

Konke bekuyiphupho le-VR

U-2016 unyaka wokuqalisa we-virtual reality (VR). Izinkampani ze-Powerhouse ezifana ne-Facebook, i-Sony, ne-Google zihlela ukukhulula ama-earphone e-VR azoletha umhlaba ongokoqobo futhi osebenziseka kalula kubantu abaningi. Lokhu kumelela ukuqala kwendlela entsha yemakethe enkulu, ezoheha izinkulungwane zabathuthukisi be-software kanye nezingxenyekazi zekhompuyutha ukuthi bakhele phezu kwayo. Eqinisweni, ekuqaleni kwawo-2020, izinhlelo zokusebenza ze-VR zingaqala ukukhiqiza ukulanda okuningi kunezinhlelo zokusebenza zeselula ezivamile.

(Uma uzibuza ukuthi konke lokhu kuhlangene ngani nokuziphendukela kwemvelo komuntu, ngicela ubekezele.)

Ezingeni eliyisisekelo, i-VR iwukusetshenziswa kobuchwepheshe ukuze udale inkohliso engokoqobo nekholisayo yomsindo nokubonwayo. Umgomo uwukushintsha umhlaba wangempela nomhlaba ongokoqobo ongokoqobo. Futhi uma kukhulunywa ngamamodeli wehedisethi ye-VR ka-2016 (Oculus Rift, I-HTC Vive futhi Iphrojekthi kaSony Morpheus), bayizinto zangempela; akhiqiza umuzwa ojulile wokuthi ungaphakathi komunye umhlaba kodwa ngaphandle kokugula okunyakazayo okubangelwa amamodeli afika ngaphambi kwawo.

Ngasekupheleni kwawo-2020, i-VR tech izobe isisetshenziswa kakhulu. Imfundo, ukuqeqeshwa kokuqashwa, imihlangano yebhizinisi, ezokuvakasha ezibonakalayo, amageyimu nokuzijabulisa, lezi ezinye zezinhlelo zokusebenza ezimbalwa kweziningi i-VR eshibhile, esebenziseka kalula, nengokoqobo engaphazamisa futhi ezoyiphazamisa. Kodwa ngaphambi kokuthi sidalule ukuxhumana phakathi kwe-VR nokuziphendukela kwemvelo komuntu, kunobunye ubuchwepheshe obusha abambalwa ozodinga ukwazi ngabo.

Ingqondo emshinini: ubuchopho-computer interface

Maphakathi nawo-2040, obunye ubuchwepheshe buzongena kancane kancane kokujwayelekile: I-Brain-Computer Interface (BCI).

Kuhlanganiswe wethu Ikusasa Lamakhompyutha uchungechunge, i-BCI ihlanganisa ukusebenzisa okokufakelwa noma idivayisi yokuskena ubuchopho eqapha amaza obuchopho bakho futhi iwahlobanise nolimi/imiyalo ukuze ulawule noma yini esebenza kukhompuyutha. Kulungile, i-BCI izokuvumela ukuthi ulawule imishini namakhompyutha kalula ngemicabango yakho.

Eqinisweni, kungenzeka awukaqapheli, kodwa iziqalo ze-BCI seziqalile. Abanqanyuliwe manje ukuhlola izitho zerobhothi kulawulwa ingqondo ngokuqondile, esikhundleni sokusebenzisa izinzwa ezinamathele esiphunzini somuntu osigqokile. Ngokunjalo, abantu abakhubazeke kakhulu (njengama-quadriplegics) bakhona manje usebenzisa i-BCI ukuqondisa izihlalo zabo ezinamasondo ezinenjini futhi usebenzise izingalo zamarobhothi. Kodwa ukusiza abanqanyulwe isitho kanye nabantu abakhubazekile baphile izimpilo ezizimele akusilo izinga lalokho i-BCI ezokwazi ukukwenza. 

Ukuhlolwa kwe-BCI kuveza izinhlelo zokusebenza ezihlobene ukulawula izinto ezingokwenyama, ukulawula kanye ukuxhumana nezilwane, ukubhala nokuthumela a umbhalo usebenzisa imicabango, ukwabelana ngemicabango yakho nomunye umuntu (isb telepathy eyenziwe), futhi ngisho ukuqoshwa kwamaphupho nezinkumbulo. Sekukonke, abacwaningi be-BCI basebenzela ukuhumusha umcabango ube yidatha, ukuze benze imicabango yabantu nedatha ishintshe.

Kungani i-BCI ibalulekile kumongo wokuziphendukela kwemvelo yingoba bekungeke kuthathe okuningi ukusuka ekufundeni izingqondo kuye ukwenza isipele esigcwele sedijithali sobuchopho bakho (eyaziwa nangokuthi i-Whole Brain Emulation, i-WBE). Inguqulo ethembekile yalobu buchwepheshe izotholakala maphakathi nawo-2050s.

Kuze kube manje, sihlanganise i-VR, i-BCI, ne-WBE. Manje sekuyisikhathi sokuhlanganisa lawa ma-akhronimi ngendlela engeke ikuphoxe.

Ukwabelana ngemicabango, ukwabelana ngemizwa, ukwabelana ngamaphupho

Isampula kusuka kuhlelo lwethu Ikusasa le-inthanethi uchungechunge, okulandelayo uhlu lwamachashazi luhlolojikelele lokuthi i-VR ne-BCI zizohlangana kanjani ukuze zakhe indawo entsha engaqondisa kabusha ukuziphendukela kwemvelo komuntu.

• Ekuqaleni, amahedisethi e-BCI azothengeka kuphela kwabambalwa, into entsha yabacebile nabaxhumene kahle abazoyikhangisa ngenkuthalo ezinkundleni zokuxhumana, basebenze njengabamukeli bokuqala kanye nabagqugquzeli abasabalalisa ukubaluleka kwayo kubantu abaningi.
• Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, ama-earphone e-BCI afinyeleleka emphakathini jikelele, okungenzeka abe yisikhathi samaholide okumele uthenge igajethi.
• Ihedisethi ye-BCI izozizwa ifana kakhulu nehedisethi ye-VR wonke umuntu (ngaleso sikhathi) aseyijwayele. Amamodeli asekuqaleni azovumela abagqoki be-BCI ukuthi baxhumane bodwa ngocingo, ukuze baxhumane ngendlela ejulile, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi yiziphi izithiyo zolimi. Lawa mamodeli asekuqaleni azokwazi futhi ukurekhoda imicabango, izinkumbulo, amaphupho, futhi ekugcineni ngisho nemizwa eyinkimbinkimbi.
• Ithrafikhi yewebhu izoqhuma njengoba abantu beqala ukwabelana ngemicabango yabo, izinkumbulo, amaphupho, nemizwa phakathi komndeni, abangani, nezithandani.
• Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, i-BCI iba yindlela entsha yokuxhumana ethi ngandlela thile ithuthuke noma ithathe indawo yenkulumo yendabuko (efana nokunyuka kwezithonjana namuhla). Abasebenzisi be-BCI abakhuthele (okungenzeka isizukulwane esincane kakhulu sangaleso sikhathi) bazoqala esikhundleni senkulumo evamile ngokwabelana ngezinkumbulo, izithombe ezigcwele imizwa, nezithombe nezingathekiso ezakhiwe ngemicabango. (Eqinisweni, zicabange esikhundleni sokuthi usho amagama athi “ngiyakuthanda,” ungakwazi ukuletha lowo mlayezo ngokwabelana ngomzwelo wakho, oxutshwe nezithombe ezimele uthando lwakho.) Lokhu kumelela indlela yokuxhumana ejulile, engase inembe kakhudlwana, futhi eyiqiniso kakhulu. uma kuqhathaniswa nenkulumo namagama esithembele kuwo iminyaka eyinkulungwane.
• Ngokusobala, osomabhizinisi bangaleso sikhathi bazosebenzisa lolu guquko lwezokuxhumana.
• Osomabhizinisi be-software bazokhiqiza inkundla yezokuxhumana entsha kanye nezinkundla zokubhuloga ezisebenza ngokukhethekile ekwabelaneni ngemicabango, izinkumbulo, amaphupho, kanye nemizwa ezinhlobonhlobo ezingapheli zama-niches. Bazodala izindlela ezintsha zokusakaza lapho ukuzijabulisa nezindaba kwabelwa khona ngokuqondile emqondweni wabasebenzisi abazimisele, kanye namasevisi okukhangisa aqondise izikhangiso ezisekelwe emicabangweni yakho yamanje kanye nemizwa. Ukuqinisekiswa okunamandla okucatshangwayo, ukwabelana ngamafayela, isixhumi esibonakalayo sewebhu, nokunye okuningi kuzoqhakaza kubuchwepheshe obuyisisekelo ngemuva kwe-BCI.
• Ngaleso sikhathi, osomabhizinisi bezingxenyekazi zekhompyutha bazokhiqiza imikhiqizo enikwe amandla ye-BCI nezindawo zokuhlala ukuze umhlaba wenyama ulandele imiyalo yomsebenzisi we-BCI.
• Ukuhlanganisa la maqembu amabili kuzoba osomabhizinisi abasebenza ngokukhethekile kwi-VR. Ngokuhlanganisa i-BCI ne-VR, abasebenzisi be-BCI bazokwazi ukuzakhela imihlaba yabo ebonakalayo ngokuthanda kwabo. Okufana ne-movie Inception, lapho uvuka ephusheni lakho futhi uthole ukuthi ungakwazi ukugoba okungokoqobo futhi wenze noma yini oyifunayo. Ukuhlanganisa i-BCI ne-VR kuzovumela abantu ukuthi bathole ubunikazi obuningi phezu kokuhlangenwe nakho okubonakalayo abahlala kuzo ngokudala imihlaba engokoqobo ekhiqizwe ngenhlanganisela yezinkumbulo zabo, imicabango, nemicabango.
• Njengoba abantu abaningi beqala ukusebenzisa i-BCI ne-VR ukuze baxhumane ngokujulile nokudala imihlaba enemininingwane eyengeziwe, ngeke kuthathe isikhathi eside ngaphambi kokuthi kuvele amaphrothokholi e-inthanethi amasha ukuze kuhlanganiswe i-inthanethi ne-VR.
• Kungekudala, umhlaba omkhulu we-VR uzoklanywa ukuthwala izimpilo ezibonakalayo zezigidi, futhi ekugcineni izigidi, ku-inthanethi. Ngezinjongo zethu, sizobiza lokhu okungokoqobo okusha, i- I-Metaverse. (Uma ukhetha ukubiza le mihlaba ngokuthi i-Matrix, lokho kuhle kakhulu.)
• Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, intuthuko ku-BCI ne-VR izokwazi ukulingisa futhi ishintshe izinzwa zakho zemvelo, okwenza abasebenzisi be-metaverse bangakwazi ukuhlukanisa umhlaba wabo we-inthanethi nomhlaba wangempela (ngokucatshangwa ukuthi banquma ukuhlala emhlabeni we-VR olingisa ngokuphelele umhlaba wangempela, isb. kulabo abangakwazi ukukhokhela uhambo lokuya eParis langempela, noma bancamela ukuvakashela iParis ngeminyaka yawo-1960.) Sekukonke, leli zinga lamaqiniso lizonezela kuphela esimweni esizayo sokulutha se-Metaverse.
• Abantu bazoqala ukuchitha isikhathi esiningi ku-Metaverse, njengoba belala. Futhi kungani bengakwenzi? Le ndawo ebonakalayo izoba lapho ufinyelela khona ukuzijabulisa kwakho okuningi futhi uxhumane nabangane bakho nomndeni, ikakhulukazi labo abahlala kude nawe. Uma usebenza noma uya esikoleni ukude, isikhathi sakho ku-Metaverse singakhula sibe amahora ayi-10-12 ngosuku.

Ngifuna ukugcizelela lelo phuzu lokugcina ngoba yilona elizoba yiphuzu lakho konke lokhu.

Ukuqashelwa okusemthethweni kwempilo ku-inthanethi

Uma kubhekwa isikhathi esiningi kakhulu ingxenye enkulu yomphakathi ezosichitha ngaphakathi kwale Metaverse, ohulumeni bazophoqeleka ukuba baqaphele futhi (ngezinga elithile) balawule izimpilo zabantu ngaphakathi kweMetaverse. Wonke amalungelo asemthethweni nokuvikelwa, kanye neminye yemikhawulo, abantu abayilindele emhlabeni wangempela izobonakala futhi iphoqelelwe ngaphakathi kwe-Metaverse.

Isibonelo, ukubuyisela i-WBE engxoxweni, yithi uneminyaka engama-64, futhi inkampani yakho yomshwalense iyakukhava ukuze uthole isipele sobuchopho. Bese kuthi uma usuneminyaka engu-65, uba sengozini ebangela ukulimala kwengqondo nokulahlekelwa inkumbulo okukhulu. Izindlela ezintsha zokwelapha zesikhathi esizayo zingakwazi ukuphulukisa ubuchopho bakho, kodwa ngeke zibuyise izinkumbulo zakho. Yilapho odokotela befinyelela isipele sakho sobuchopho ukuze balayishe ubuchopho bakho ngezinkumbulo zakho zesikhathi eside ezingekho. Lesi sipele ngeke sibe impahla yakho kuphela, kodwa futhi inguqulo yakho esemthethweni, enamalungelo afanayo nokuvikelwa, uma kwenzeka ingozi.

Ngokunjalo, yithi uyisisulu sengozi okuthi kulokhu ikufaka ekhoma noma esimweni sokumila. Ngenhlanhla, wasekela ingqondo yakho ngaphambi kwengozi. Ngenkathi umzimba wakho ululama, ingqondo yakho isengakwazi ukusebenzelana nomndeni wakho futhi isebenze ukude ngaphakathi kwe-Metaverse. Uma umzimba ululama futhi odokotela sebelungele ukukuvusa ekukhomeni kwakho, isipele somqondo singadlulisela izinkumbulo ezintsha ezidalile emzimbeni wakho osanda kwelashwa. Futhi nalapha, ukwazi kwakho okusebenzayo, njengoba kukhona ku-Metaverse, kuzoba inguqulo yakho esemthethweni, onamalungelo afanayo nokuvikelwa, uma kwenzeka ingozi.

Nokho, sisebenzisa lesi sitimela somcabango, bekuzokwenzekani kulesi sisulu sengozi uma umzimba waso ungalulami? Kuthiwani uma umzimba ufa kuyilapho ingqondo isebenza kakhulu futhi ixhumana nomhlaba nge-Metaverse?

Ukuthuthela kwabantu abaningi ku-ether eku-inthanethi

Ekupheleni kwekhulu leminyaka, phakathi kuka-2090 no-2110, amaphesenti amakhulu abantu bomhlaba azobhalisa ezikhungweni ezikhethekile zokulala, lapho bezokhokha khona ukuze bahlale endaweni eyi-Matrix pod enakekela izidingo zemizimba yabo isikhathi eside. —amasonto, izinyanga, ekugcineni iminyaka, noma yini esemthethweni ngaleso sikhathi—ukuze bakwazi ukuhlala kule metaverse 24/7. Lokhu kungase kuzwakale ngokweqisa, kodwa ukuhlala okunwetshiwe ku-metaverse kungase kube umqondo wezomnotho, ikakhulukazi kulabo abanquma ukulibazisa noma ukwenqaba ubuzali bendabuko. 

Ngokuhlala, ukusebenza, nokulala ku-Metaverse, ungagwema izindleko zokuphila ezivamile zerenti, izinsiza, ezokuthutha, ukudla, njll., futhi esikhundleni salokho ukhokhele ukuqasha isikhathi sakho endaweni encane yokulala. Futhi ngokwezinga lomphakathi, ukulala kwenani elikhulu labantu kungase kunciphise ubunzima emikhakheni yezindlu, amandla, ukudla, nezokuthutha—ikakhulukazi uma inani labantu emhlabeni likhula lize licishe lifinyelele. I-10 billion ngo-2060.

Emashumini eminyaka ngemva kwalolu hlobo lokuhlala unomphela e-Metaverse kuba 'okuvamile,' kuzovela impikiswano mayelana nokuthi yini okufanele yenziwe ngemizimba yabantu. Uma umzimba womuntu ufa ngenxa yokuguga kuyilapho ingqondo yakhe isebenza ngokuphelele futhi ihlangene nomphakathi we-Metaverse, ingabe ukwazi kwakhe kufanele kusulwe? Uma umuntu enquma ukuhlala e-Metaverse impilo yakhe yonke, ingabe sikhona isizathu sokuqhubeka nokusebenzisa izinsiza zomphakathi ukugcina umzimba wezinto eziphilayo emhlabeni?

Impendulo yayo yomibili le mibuzo izoba: cha.

Abantu njengezidalwa zomcabango namandla

The ikusasa lokufa kuzoba yisihloko esixoxa ngokuningiliziwe kwethi Ikusasa Labantu uchungechunge, kodwa ngezinjongo zalesi sahluko, sidinga kuphela ukugxila emaphuzwini alo abalulekile ambalwa:

• Isilinganiso seminyaka yokuphila komuntu izokwenaba idlule i-100 ngaphambi kuka-2060.
• Ukufa kwebhayoloji (ukuphila ngokungapheli kodwa ukwazi ukufa ngenxa yodlame noma ukulimala) kwenzeka ngemva kuka-2080.
• Ngemuva kokuthi i-WBE ibe nokwenzeka ngo-2060, ukufa komqondo kuzoba ngokuzikhethela.
• Ukulayisha ingqondo engenamzimba erobhothini noma emzimbeni womuntu (Battlestar Galactica Ukuvuka) kwenza ukungafi kwenzeke okokuqala ngo-2090.
• Ukufa komuntu ekugcineni kuncike ekuqineni kwakhe kwengqondo, kakhulu kunempilo yakhe engokomzimba.

Njengoba iphesenti lobuntu lilayisha izingqondo zabo isikhathi esigcwele ku-Metaverse, bese unomphela ngemva kokufa kwemizimba yabo, lokhu kuzodala uchungechunge lwemicimbi kancane kancane.

• Abaphilayo bazofisa ukuhlala bexhumene nalabo bantu abashona ngokwenyama ababebanakekela ngokusebenzisa iMetaverse.
• Lokhu kuxhumana okuqhubekayo nomufi ngokomzimba kuzoholela ekunethezekeni okuvamile ngomqondo wempilo yedijithali ngemva kokufa komzimba.
• Lokhu kuphila kwangemva kokufa kwedijithali kuzobe sekujwayezwa kube esinye isigaba sempilo yomuntu, ngaleyo ndlela kuholele ekwandeni kancane kancane kwenani labantu elihlala njalo, elibizwa ngokuthi i-Metaverse.
• Ngokuphambene, umzimba womuntu uyancipha kancane kancane, njengoba incazelo yokuphila izoshintsha ukuze igcizelele ukwazi phezu kokusebenza okuyisisekelo komzimba wezinto eziphilayo.
• Ngenxa yalokhu kuchazwa kabusha, futhi ikakhulukazi kulabo abashonelwe abathandekayo ngaphambi kwesikhathi, abanye abantu bazokhuthazeka—futhi bayoba nelungelo elingokomthetho—lokunqamula imizimba yabo yomuntu nganoma isiphi isikhathi ukuze bajoyine iMetaverse unomphela.
• Leli lungelo lokuqeda ukuphila komuntu ngokomzimba cishe lizokhawulelwa kuze kube yilapho umuntu esefinyelele iminyaka enqunyiwe yokuvuthwa ngokomzimba. Abaningi cishe bazoyenza le nqubo ngomkhosi obuswa i-techno-religion yesikhathi esizayo.
• Ohulumeni besikhathi esizayo bazokweseka lokhu kufuduka kwabantu abaningi eMetaverse ngezizathu eziningi. Okokuqala, lokhu kufuduka kuyindlela engaphoqiwe yokulawula inani labantu. Osopolitiki besikhathi esizayo bazophinde babe ngabasebenzisi beMetaverse abashisekayo. Futhi uxhaso lwangempela lomhlaba nokugcinwa kwe-International Metaverse Network kuzovikelwa abavoti be-Metaverse abakhula unomphela abamalungelo abo okuvota azohlala evikelekile ngisho nangemva kokufa kwabo ngokomzimba.

Lokhu kufuduka kwabantu abaningi kuzoqhubeka kuze kudlule iminyaka engama-2200 lapho iningi labantu emhlabeni liyoba khona njengabantu abacabangayo namandla ngaphakathi kwe-International Metaverse Network. Lo mhlaba wedijithali uzoba ocebile futhi ohlukahlukene njengemicabango eqoqiwe yezigidigidi zabantu abasebenzisana phakathi kwawo.

(Ngokwesexwayiso, nakuba abantu bengase baqondise le Metaverse, ubunkimbinkimbi bayo buzodinga ukuthi ilawulwe ubuhlakani bokwenziwa oyedwa noma ngaphezulu. Impumelelo yalo mhlaba wedijithali incike ebuhlotsheni bethu nalezi zinhlangano ezintsha zokwenziwa. Kodwa sizokuhlanganisa lokho ochungechungeni lwethu lwekusasa le-Artificial Intelligence.)

Kodwa umbuzo osalayo, kuzokwenzekani ngalabo bantu abaphuma eMetaverse? 

Izinhlobo zabantu ziyaphuma

Ngenxa yezizathu eziningi zamasiko, imibono nezenkolo, idlanzana elikhulu labantu lizonquma ukungabambi iqhaza ohlelweni lwe-International Metaverse. Esikhundleni salokho, bazoqhubeka nezinqubo zokuziphendukela kwemvelo okusheshayo ezichazwe ezahlukweni zangaphambili, njengokwenza izingane eziklamiweyo nokukhulisa imizimba yazo ngamakhono angaphezu kwawomuntu.

Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, lokhu kuzoholela ekutheni kube nenani labantu abaye bafinyelela inani eliphakeme ngokomzimba futhi abaye bazijwayeza ngokugcwele indawo ezungezile yoMhlaba. Iningi lalaba bantu lizokhetha ukuphila izimpilo eziphansi zokungcebeleka, iningi labo ezindaweni ezihlala ezindaweni zakudala, kanti abanye basemalokishini angawodwa. Abaningi balaba abalahliwe bazokhetha ukuphinda babambe inhlansi yomhambi/umhloli wamadlozi esintu ngokungena ohambweni oluhlanganisa amaplanethi nezinkanyezi. Kuleli qembu lakamuva, ukuziphendukela kwemvelo kungase kubone imingcele emisha.

Siba amaMartians

Uma sikhipha kafushane ochungechungeni lwethu lwe-Future of Space, futhi sinomuzwa wokuthi kubalulekile ukusho ukuthi ukuzijabulisa kwabantu okuzayo emkhathini nakho kuzodlala indima ekuziphendukeleni kwethu kwesikhathi esizayo. 

Okuthile okungavamisile ukushiwo yi-NASA noma kwethulwe ngokunembile emibukisweni eminingi ye-sci-fi ukuthi amaplanethi ahlukene anamazinga ahlukene adonsela phansi uma kuqhathaniswa nomhlaba. Isibonelo, amandla adonsela phansi enyanga acishe abe amaphesenti angu-17 amandla adonsela phansi eMhlabeni—yingakho ukuhla kwenyanga kwasekuqaleni kwakunezithombe zosomkhathi begxumagxuma phezu kwenyanga. Ngokufanayo, amandla adonsela phansi kuyi-Mars cishe angamaphesenti angu-38 amandla adonsela phansi oMhlaba; lokho kusho ukuthi nakuba osomkhathi besikhathi esizayo ekuvakasheni kokuqala kwe-Mars bengeke bagibele, bazozizwa belula kakhulu.

'Kungani kubalulekile lokhu?' uyabuza.

Kubalulekile ngoba i-physiology yomuntu iguqukele kumandla adonsela phansi oMhlaba. Njengoba kutholwa osomkhathi ku-International Space Station (ISS), ukuchayeka okwedlulele ezindaweni zamandla adonsela phansi aphansi noma angekho kuholela esilinganisweni esikhuphukile sokubola kwamathambo nemisipha, okufana nalezo eziphethwe yi-osteoporosis.

Lokhu kusho ukuthi ukuhambela okunwetshiwe, bese kuba izisekelo, bese kuthi amakoloni enyangeni noma ku-Mars kuzophoqa le mingcele yesikhathi esizayo-abantu ukuthi babe ama-CrossFit ama-maniacs noma ama-steroid junkies ukuvimbela umonakalo wesikhathi eside ukuchayeka amandla adonsela phansi aphansi okuba nawo emizimbeni yabo. Kodwa-ke, ngesikhathi amakoloni emkhathi eba yinto engenzeka kakhulu, sizophinde sibe nenketho yesithathu: ubunjiniyela bezakhi zofuzo uhlobo olusha lwabantu olune-physiology eklanyelwe amandla adonsela phansi amaplanethi abazalelwa kuwo.

Uma lokhu kwenzeka, sizobona ukudalwa kohlobo olusha ngokuphelele lwabantu phakathi neminyaka eyi-1-200 ezayo. Ukubeka lokhu ngombono ofanele, kungase kuthathe imvelo izinkulungwane eziningi zeminyaka ukuguqula uhlobo olusha lwezinhlobo eziphilayo lusuke kwevamile uhlobo.

Ngakho-ke ngesikhathi esilandelayo lapho ulalela abameli bokuhlola indawo bekhuluma ngokuqinisekisa ukuphila kohlanga lwesintu ngokwenza amakoloni eminye imihlaba, khumbula ukuthi abacacisi ngokweqile ukuthi hlobo luni lwesintu oluqinisekiswa ngokusinda.

(O, futhi asizange sikhulume ngosonkanyezi bemisebe eyingozi kakhulu abazochayeka kubo ngesikhathi semishini eyandisiwe emkhathini naku-Mars. Eesh.) 

Umgomo wethu wokuziphendukela kwemvelo?

Kusukela ezinsukwini zokuqala zokuziphendukela kwemvelo, ukuphila kuye kwafuna izimoto ezinkulu kakhulu ukuze zivikele futhi zidlulisele ukwaziswa kwakho kofuzo ezizukulwaneni ezilandelayo.

Ukuze ufanekise leli phuzu, cabangela lokhu inoveli emangalisayo Isitimela somcabango esivela kubacwaningi base-Macquarie University: Ekuqaleni kokuziphendukela kwemvelo, i-RNA yadliwa yi-DNA. I-DNA yasetshenziswa amangqamuzana ngamanye. Amaseli adliwe yizinto eziphilayo eziyinkimbinkimbi, ezinamaseli amaningi. Lezi zinto eziphilayo zadliwa izitshalo nezilwane eziyinkimbinkimbi ngokwengeziwe. Ekugcineni, lezo zilwane ezashintsha isimiso sezinzwa zazikwazi ukulawula futhi zidle lezo ezingazange ziguquke. Futhi isilwane esashintsha isimiso sezinzwa esiyinkimbinkimbi kunazo zonke, abantu, sasebenzisa ulimi lwabo oluyingqayizivele njengethuluzi lokudlulisa ngokungaqondile ulwazi lofuzo kusuka kwesinye isizukulwane kuya kwesinye, ithuluzi elibavumela ukuba balawule ngokushesha uchungechunge lokudla.

Kodwa-ke, ngokukhula kwe-inthanethi, sibona izinsuku zokuqala zesimiso sezinzwa somhlaba wonke, esabelana ngolwazi ngokuzikhandla nangenqwaba. Kuyisimiso sezinzwa abantu namuhla asebencika kakhulu kuso unyaka nonyaka. Futhi njengoba sifunda ngenhla, kuyisimiso sezinzwa esizogcina sisidle ngokuphelele njengoba sihlanganisa ngokukhululekile ukwazi kwethu ku-Metaverse.

Labo abakhetha ukuphuma kulokhu kuba khona kwe-Metaverse balahla inzalo yabo endaweni yokuziphendukela kwemvelo, kuyilapho labo abahlangana nayo besengozini yokulahlekelwa ngokwabo ngaphakathi kuyo. Ukuthi ubona lokhu njengento edabukisayo yokungawi lutho kwesintu noma ukunqoba kobuhlakani bomuntu obubhekise ku-techno-heaven/afterlife eyenziwe ngumuntu kuncike kakhulu embonweni wakho.
