Visualize yourself as a young indigenous family standing on the water’s edge as tall ships emerge in the distance. Your peoples have thrived as younger siblings to the flora and fauna by living in right-relationship and reciprocity with the land. The people sailing the ships have plans for your family, your way of life, your culture and the sacred land that are antithetical to the concept of right-relationship and reciprocity, thus it is impossible for you to comprehend that they are motivated by material wealth, individual aggrandizement, and the spread of Christianity, often summed up in the phrase "gold, glory, and God”. Now jump to 2021, there are new ships on the horizon but this time they aren’t being steered by people. They are being steered by code, pre-programed by people who deem themselves like Pope Alexander VI who in 1492 confirmed the rights of Catholic Monarchs of Spain Isabella and Ferdinand the right to explore and convert pagan populations. However, this time Artificial Intelligence is on board and it has infinitely more potential for harm as it colonizes us at the cellular level (i.e., The Software of Life) and beyond. Once again it may be impossible for us to even comprehend what it has planned for us and why. We need to start doing the work to decode and protect all natural life on Earth as keepers of natural life.
