I realize I am biased against artificial intelligence. It's synthethic and not intelligence at all. What it is is collections from the pools of digital data provided by humans. Ai had to mention gender as non binary didn't it. That's because it is programmed with biases by the humans who run it. That fact alone shall keep us down. I doubt we'll get very far by asking a dumb calculator how to think differently. Polarity is what that exists in this realm (as far as I can see) and there are points on the spectrum from one polarity to the other. That doesn't mean that polarity doesn't exist or that we should think up something else becuase it's too limiting. We have to observe nature and a computer cannot do that. I understand that Ai (with a small i) is just another reference to go by and I think that's great and can do wonderful things for humans. But don't forget who created Ai and that we are not synthetic, we are the real thing. We are always looking at information that is written yet are blind to nature's formulas that are written nowhere. For example we don't see the holographic yet inidividual framework of nature (and of ourselves) Science treats physics as though it is mechanical and that is in my view, totally off the mark and leading us to nowhere. So what will help us see "out of the box"? Discussing different perspectives, as many as possible. I know this sounds simplistic, but that is how we will advance, that is how we spread knowledge and intelligence and start everything. It's fine to have the written word, of course, but we must understand the limitations of writing - it is 2 dimensional and we are multi-dimensional as is reality.-it can only convey a minute portion of reality, "real life" is infinitely more complex than anything that could be written. That's ok, we can still figure it out, but we're way behind in our general understanding of reality, compared to the level of technology we have today. We are in dangerous waters because of this discrepancy. We're way behind with most people having no idea how nature behaves.
It is so very important to me that you respect and reference the work of G. I. Gurdjieff. Understanding the law of seven is so critical to taking right action each and every day that we "remember" ... thank you.
Beautiful thoughts and reflection Tom. Perfect timing for me too! I am imagining the world you present in the end and it's exciting but also feels so far away. Hmmm, interesting to feel that.
great article, thanks! one think i notice with this topic is that many feel they are beyond black and white thinking, yet it still grabs them quite a bit. i don't blame anyone here, i just think there is a whole practice of really integrating these ideas that is underway. it reminds me critical thinking... when i took CE's course on critical thinking (taught by Joe & Madhava i believe) i thought i was already pretty good.. then realized how much i could actually improve haha. i think this is the same when i read youtube and article comments, many aren't critically thinking as much as they think.. just like i was. and i think it's because this stuff is so ingrained within us from day one of our lives. we move from one side to the other often.
