Natural Encryption Is Infinite

[jimji]

A human brain has unique, natural encryption that activates when an invasive signal is sensed. Unique, as is a fingerprint.

Programmers should attempt to achieve such encryption. But programmers should be aware that sometimes the natural cyphertext can cause problems when plaintext is the intended output.

This hypotheses came to me while I was trying to figure out how a human would be protected from others that are able to use telepathic ability. I contend that the human brain evolves ever so slowly and if humans are able to keep themselves alive and out of cave dwelling their brains will have fertile ground for continued development and eventually there will be an ability for communications to be brain to brain. How far down the road, you might ask? Haven't a clue. Could be a couple hundred years, or a couple thousand; but I believe it will happen.

So the obvious question is how we can be protected from others reading everything in our brains?

Natural encryption can be the only way. Only those signals you voluntarily send out are in "plain form" (plaintext) --- but I am also concerned with multiple encryption being used in nanoseconds, if you might be in a conference and you want a single individual to receive a signal.

Obviously, I do not think telepathic abilities are a science fiction impossibility. There are some these days that claim some sort of abilities along these lines, but I don't know any of them and I have doubts. And even if there are such folks, their abilities would be very primitive.

I do think the human brain has actually been improving over the years and will continue to do so, but we have to survive to make it to where I am pointing to in the above statements.

I also think it might not be such a bad idea for a really good programmer who is self-sufficient in the essentials for a proper daily life to devote her/his life to experimenting to achieve with AI what I am describing above.

I suspect, at my end, this second post is to prove one of two things:

One, I am completely off my rocker and in a hopeless state and to be ignored.
Two, I am onto something that is worth further thought. BUT I do not have the skills to do this research and I also won't be able to live long enough, even if I were to try.

AND a confession: I have not done the proper research to find out if this idea has already been published by another. This just came to me while I was writing something else and it surprised me so much I just decided to kick it out into public right away. Actually, my medical situation is getting such that if any such types of thoughts with any sort of merit do enter my brain it is safest to kick the idea out into the public rapidly because this latest round of chemotherapy is really kicking my butt and I sense if sayonara hits me it won't be with much warning. I'm already lucky to be alive, so no complaints. But taking possibly good ideas into the unknown would be disrespectful, or impolite.

And if I am a nutcase, then the next George Carlin can find good material in my writings.

how a human would be protected from others that are able to use telepathic ability.

Good question

By coincidence I watched a video last night called "Chaos Walking" which is about how men's thoughts being heard and seen as "noise" above the head. The women didn't give off noise which is the men of one clan killed them off because they couldn't be trusted without knowing what they thought. Sounds familiar I know but some men could control their noise to control others and also spoof noise to project whatever they wanted.

Getting back to the real world, animals can sense ill intent and to an extent humans can too. One example that we may all be familiar with is thinking of a loved one while they are thinking of you. How that is a secure channel might be due to an encryption as mentioned above.

Let them try to hack that one.

We should ask Mr. Spock...

Not saying telepathy is impossible, just curious how each individual will have "natural encryption" that can be secured to only ONE OTHER in a roomful of telepaths to pass along a private message.

We have the same problems right now, in the real world, where language (audible) is the means of communication.

I actually had a cat many, many years ago that sensed an earthquake about 5 minutes before it started. Shocked the heck out of me, to be frank. I was actually trying to figure out what was bothering him and worried about fire and maybe smoke and simply couldn't understand what was going on and then the building started to shake. Odd thing was that it wasn't an area that usually has such shakes and I immediately forgot about Prolyx and contacted my officers because I assumed it was an explosion of some sort. Then they told me what it was and I realized that Prolyx had actually known something before it happened. It was really weird. And I have had other cats since then in this area where we do have lots of earthquakes and none of them have done that same thing, so it isn't a common thing with cats.

I had my own shock when I had an awful dream and precisely described it at breakfast to my family and then the very next day on the other side of the planet that very thing happened. And that is a very, very uncomfortable thing to happen. It was actually terrible, because the details were so exact. That is a very, very bad experience to go through.

I also had a most unusual experience at some railroad tracks and ordered the driver to turn around immediately and we went back to the BOQ. I don't know how I knew, but I knew we were heading into bad, bad trouble. That was also a very uncomfortable experience.

But a more recent experience along the same lines was fully documented online and we even moved it all over to public viewing for many years. I still am not sure how I knew about that one.

But the initial question above came to me while I was working on something only related to Net security in general and I am not sure how that question came to me as it did. I had never thought about it before. I should have, though, because I have two areas I am working on that are going to really upset some people and that is because one will be a thorn in the side of some religious leaders and institutions, as well those that study physics; and the second one is going to seriously upset those that study physics. I suspect the second one is already known by some upper ranking religious leaders, but they don't tell people.

What's really good is that 99% of the people on this planet will simply think I'm out of my mind and that is very comforting because they won't bother trying to hurt me because they think I'm a danger. Of course, they have to get to me, which isn't so easy. This work station location has a security even the best of the best don't like. The main house is over the ridgeline, so that separates "them" from here.

But the whole question of telepathic communications will only be valid if humans can get beyond this stupid era where all major problems are solved by conflict with ever more dangerous weapons systems, like with explosive devices. I'm really surprised the Cold War didn't put us back into caves. I never really thought we'd wipe ourselves out, but I sure thought survivors would be back in caves, and it would start all over again. When the USSR collapsed I was very surprised.

Of course, anything bigger than a G5 from the Sun could cause us real harm, but we night be able to survive that. But if we make it down the road a few hundred more years I think our brains are evolving toward improved ability and eventually we will be able to communicate via thought passing and then we have to ask ourselves how we are protected from having our thoughts read by those not invited to read the thoughts and all I can think of is natural encryption. It might even be we have that ability now, but don't know it.

I was already asking some people about a year ago how fast our thoughts work and how that can be measured and that is not an easy one, either.

That is why I concluded that natural encryption is infinite, tangor. If it is not infinitive, it's never going to happen.

What if they run out of assigned spaces like they did with IP addresses?

That sounds familiar. Many many years ago I had a nervous breakdown from over work and consulted specialists and researched a lot into schizophrenia because my main problem was headaches from hearing voices. Apparently other people do hear voices but in my case there was more than one and they were arguing all the time.

But what my research turned up was that very few people do hear voices. Or at least that is what shrinks believe. But I cannot even imagine getting through the day without an interpreter. Besides, who else is going write my posts?

Animal senses are different than humans. I've had dogs that sensed EQs before happening. Just wondering what kind of brain to brain (thought to thought) encryption, natural or not, is possible since encryption, by description, means OBSCURE communication. Kind of a conundrum. :)

You want to know one of the weirdest places you can spot people who have brain systems that work a little oddly --- in sports. I know that reads as a very strange statement, but it is dead on target. For example, if you play left field and can get the jump on a hard hit ball and can do it over and over it finally starts to dawn on you that something isn't quite the same as some others that play the same position. Then you start to watch the professional folks and you understand why they are professionals. They have that something extra that allows them to anticipate just a tad faster than other more normal humans. It's a very weird thing to catch the impossible catch and do it over and over and people start to say strange things about you after the pats on the back are done. There are a few other fields of endeavor where that anticipation comes forth, but it is in sports where it is much more obvious. It's just that people don't think about it. There's an FBI guy out there in the world someplace, if he's still alive, that was angry at me for so long for stealing his dream by one of those nasty weird catches. Ask him. Not fantasy. A whole bunch of folks saw it that afternoon. And I had done it before that time. Just that was the last one. In fact, sports messed up my spine really bad and they couldn't get the needle into my spinal fluid three times, only once; but the sports has got to be the only reason the chemo hasn't killed me yet. My first relapse they thought I was a dead duck and it was not pretty, but I got through it. And now they have me on an even meaner chemical, but I'm still able to type this and even keep my own AO clean. All those years of sports are finally paying dividends. Of course, all that pain trouble after some events is helping, because I don't have to use as much pain pills now as they want me to. But staying in shape for so many years is finally paying off.

Hypothetically, if person to person communication was at all possible, then the encryption key should be no problem when it can be based on many of the factors that are different from person to person that are unique and the resulting combination can be infinitive.
