Those who control the fusion of our physical, biological & digital identities ‘will be masters of the world’: perspective The World Economic Forum’s (WEF) Klaus Schwab tells the World Government Summit that he is concerned that technologies emerging from the so-called fourth industrial revolution (4IR) could “escape our power to master” without shared, global policies. For years, Schwab has pointed out that the so-called fourth industrial revolution will ultimately lead to the “fusion of our physical, our digital, and our biological identities.” Now, the unelected globalist is concerned about losing control of 4IR technologies without “the necessary policies.” “My deep concern is that [with] those technologies, if we don’t work together on a global scale, if we do not formulate, shape together the necessary policies, they will escape our power to master those technologies” — Klaus Schwab, World Government Summit, 2023 Speaking at the World Government Summit in Dubai, UAE on Monday Schwab remarked: “I think the fourth industrial revolution will be in our mind for quite some years to come. “ ,” he added. But my deep concern is that those technologies, if we don’t work together on a global scale, if we do not formulate, shape together the necessary policies, they will escape our power to master those technologies https://twitter.com/TimHinchliffe/status/1625223502650286110?embedable=true “How can we make sure that the individual — each citizen — doesn’t feel overwhelmed by change? Because we cannot understand really what’s going on, and if we do not understand, we become fearful, and we react negatively” — Klaus Schwab, World Government Summit, 2023 Regarding the arrival of quantum computing and self-replicating AI, Schwab went on to say, “One of my concerns is how to shape the necessary policies to make sure that those technologies serve humankind. “But the second concern, which I have, and where governments have an important role — the change goes so fast in our world and will go even faster. “ ? Because we cannot understand really what’s going on, and . How can we make sure that the individual — each citizen — doesn’t feel overwhelmed by change if we do not understand, we become fearful, and we react negatively “And we see the first consequences already in many countries, with polarization of the public opinion. “ , and here I think governments have an important role to explain — and to have the ambition and the vision — to show that those technologies can serve for the good.” It has to do with some feeling that we lose control over our own fate “Our life in 10 years from now will be completely different, very much affected, and ” — Klaus Schwab, World Government Summit, 2023 who masters those technologies, in some way, will be the masters of the world https://twitter.com/TimHinchliffe/status/1625155704985198596?embedable=true According to Schwab, fourth industrial revolution technologies are advancing exponentially, and those who master them will be masters of the world. In his keynote address, the unelected globalist told the World Government Summit that all the 4IR technologies that were once considered science fiction have now become reality, and that 10 years from now our lives will be completely different. "I wrote in 2015 the book 'The Fourth Industrial Revolution,' and I mentioned 23 or 24 technologies which would change the world, like crypto and so on," Schwab said on Monday. "The book was considered science fiction; all those technologies have become reality," he added. "When you look at technology transformation [...] we are just now where we move into the exponential phase" -- Klaus Schwab, World Government Summit, 2023 Reflecting on the trajectory of 4IR transformation, Schwab remarked, "When you look at technology transformation, it usually takes place in terms of an S-curve, and ." we are just now where we move into the exponential phase With the exponential advancements in AI, the metaverse, and synthetic biology, the unelected globalist prognosticated, " , very much affected, and ." Our life in 10 years from now will be completely different who masters those technologies, in some way, will be the masters of the world "In order to be a winner [...] you have to embrace the fourth industrial revolution [...] If you embrace the fourth industrial revolution, it means to be at the forefront" -- Klaus Schwab, APEC Summit, 2022 Regarding the mastering of the fourth industrial revolution, Schwab made similar remarks at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit in Bangkok, Thailand last November, where he said that in order to be a winner in the business community, one must "embrace the fourth industrial revolution." " ," said Schwab at APEC 2022. If you embrace the fourth industrial revolution, it means to be at the forefront https://twitter.com/TimHinchliffe/status/1595139326714982401?embedable=true Technologies emerging from the 4IR do indeed have the potential to make the world a better place, such as bringing about greater connectivity, better healthcare and housing, more efficient land use for food and water, advances in recycling, and incredible convenience for billions of people. At the same time, the fourth industrial revolution threatens to fundamentally alter what it means to be human through the merger of humans and technology. “What the Fourth Industrial Revolution will lead to is a fusion of our physical, our digital, and our biological identities” — Klaus Schwab, WEF, 2019 The technocrats’ transhumanism agenda is lined with half-truths, where the promise of will likely be reserved only for a select chosen class while the exist in a constant state of surveillance and control until they become irrelevant. superhuman abilities programmable plebs For the chosen ones, they could receive that would give them the ability to never tire, think smarter, move faster, jump higher, see farther, hear better, hit harder, live longer, adapt stronger, and calculate quicker than any other human being on the planet. human performance enhancement For the rest of us, the is already merging our physical, biological, and digital identities in order to . fourth industrial revolution monitor, manipulate, and reprogram our behavior Those who master these transhumanist, 4IR technologies will truly be masters of the world, indeed.
