HOMO TECHNOLOGICUS

Picture

'Homo Technologicus’  The "coming wave" of technology… is reshaping humanity, leading to the emergence of "Homo technologicus," where our future is both dependent on and imperiled by these advancements.  This "wave" of technological change will be more transformative than any previous one, and raises concerns about the ethical implications and challenges of managing such rapid innovation.

The above description was written by Google’s AI.

I had been wanting to learn more about AI, Artificial Intelligence, and read Mustapha Suleyman’s excellent book, The Coming Wave which I highly recommend. His fears for the future of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and AI Super Intelligence are sobering, while his optimism is present but muted.
I have portrayed this future iteration of Homo Sapiens with the components of several cell phones filling our brains, and the division of the lights and darks radiating out reflecting both hopes and fears for our future.

TESTIMONIALS

“My personal choice of Tectonic Shift; New World Order caught my eye from the very start of the viewing process. It is a true mosaic, done in the spirit of the medium. It uses the materials…with complete understanding of their qualities, of light, color and intensity….Brava!”
Elaine Goodwin, Juror , Mosaic Arts International Exhibition, San Diego Women's Museum, 2016
"I just saw the mosaic at the South Surgery Center. It is fabulous! It is just beautiful...once again thank you for leading us to just the right art choice."
excerpt to art consultant from hospital CEO, Dayton,Ohio 2017


"...everyone is over the moon with happiness and excitement about the mural. They are Beyond pleased." Barbara Harriman, President, Distinctive Art Source, 2017
"Seeing your whole body of work together, it blew me away.   Such an inspiring unity of brain and heart. It's authentically smart but balanced so perfectly with such heartfelt gentleness and freedom." Lynn Moor former owner, Mosaic Smalti 2017
