What are the top 5 inventions of all time? No, the wheel is not one of them.

June 25, 2024 

Here are the Top 5 Human Inventions of All Time: 

  1. Language 
  2. God
  3. Money
  4. Science
  5. Computers
Language 

Language is the top human invention of all time because it is the master invention that facilitates all other creations and inventions. For example, the remaining 4 inventions on our list of Top 5 Human Invention of All Time depend on the invention of language.

A language is a code to convert select sensory input (sounds, signs, characters, symbols) into concepts or units of meaning. Human languages facilitate intelligence, creativity, communication, and collaboration. Intelligence and these three Cs (creativity, communication, and collaboration) set humans apart from the rest of the animal kingdom and from all other forms of life on Earth. To be sure, all life on Earth is intelligent, creative, communicative, and collaborative to some degree or level. Humans possess the most advanced degree of intelligence, creativity, communication, and collaboration on Earth. This is in great part due to the invention of language. 

Life is organic data processing. A language is a code for effective data processing. Languages codify select sensory input (sounds, characters, gestures, signs, etc.) into output that conveys meaning based on agreed upon definitions and usage conventions. 

Languages are creative inventions governed by human-invented rules such as grammar and syntax. Within those arbitrary rules for convenience, languages allow for unlimited creation. Users of human language (humans and AI) can generate a practically infinite number of utterances to create new meanings and convey all sort of messages and responses. 

Languages can transcend time and reality. Using languages, humans can create concepts that are not bound to time such as past or future events, and that are not bound to reality itself such as imaginary concepts likes deities, spirits, and supernatural forces. Humans are the only animals on Earth capable of such a feat, and it is all due in great part due to the invention of language.  

More to follow on how language facilitates the development of intelligence (problem-solving ability), creativity (transformations), communication (messaging), and collaboration (team efforts). More to follow also on the remaining four inventions (God, Money, Science, and Computers including AI) on Creatix List of Top 5 Human Inventions of All Time. By the way, the wheel is a fine invention and so is the lightbulb and so many others human inventions. Nonetheless, no invention tops these 5 (language, God, money, science, and computers).

Stay tuned. To be continued.

When will the Tesla bubble burst?

December 11, 2024 When will the Tesla bubble burst?  We don't know Fools rush in. It's impossible to know exactly when the Tesla bubble will finally burst. Unfortunately for us at Creatix, we began shorting Tesla too soon. We are down almost 40% on our position as of today. We are not fooling ourselves thinking that we were ever make money on the short position. We truly doubt that Tesla can go down 40% any time soon.  We would love to add to the short position, but it would exceed our $3,000 limit on the stupid bets that we do for fun. We're not Mr. Beast. We have a very limited budget for ridiculousness. We would love to short Tesla tomorrow morning at the ridiculous share price of $424. Tesla is trading at an incredible 116 times earnings, which gives Tesla a market capitalization of $1.32 Trillion. Elon Musk added today $13.4 billion to his fortune. Yes, $13 billion in one day. Yesterday, he had added $11 billion. Yes, that's $24 billion in 2 days.  Six months ago, ...

Will Tariffs Reduce the National Debt?

Creatix / June 30, 2025 The U.S. national debt has surpassed $34.7 trillion , and the cost of servicing that debt— just the interest payments—has soared to over $1 trillion annually as of mid-2025. This marks a historic shift: we now spend more just paying interest on the National debt than on defense, Medicare, or any single discretionary program. Economists warn that unless fiscal policy changes, interest costs will crowd out critical investments in infrastructure, education, and innovation, deepening the structural debt burden for future generations. From Osama to MAGA OBBA: the path to U.S. bankruptcy. Osama Bin Laden "succeeded" in putting us in a path to bankruptcy. The U.S. national debt began to increase dramatically after 9/11, marking a sharp departure from the budget surpluses of the late 1990s. In response to the terrorist attacks, the U.S. launched costly wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, while also implementing sweeping tax cuts under the Bush administration. These...

How TikTok can Artificially Spread Socialism in America?

Creatix / June 29, 2025 TikTok's Socialist Movement in New York City  In one of the most unexpected political turns in recent New York history, Zohran Mamdani , the democratic socialist Assemblymember from Queens, has defeated former Governor Andrew Cuomo in the Democratic primary for New York City mayor. While the general election remains to be decided in November of this year, Mamdani is now the clear frontrunner. His socialist victory signals not just a generational shift, but the rise of a new kind of political power: one fueled by TikTok , a Chinese-owned social media platform that has become Gen Z’s ideological training ground. From Astoria to Citywide Dominance Mamdani first rose to prominence as a bold and principled advocate for tenants’ rights, public transportation reform, and wealth redistribution in the State Assembly. But his stunning mayoral primary win wasn’t just about policy—it was about algorithmic delivery powered by Chinese media company. Mamdani didn’t r...
