The Custody of Earth has been entrusted to us—not merely as inhabitants but as guardians entrusted with profound responsibility. Our journey has reached a crossroads, a pivotal moment in human history where our choices hold monumental consequences.

For millennia, survival was simple: Parents taught, children followed, and the cycle continued. But today, that pattern is broken. Living as our parents did leads to collapse—we’ve extracted too much, consumed too much, and lost the balance with nature that once sustained us.

This anonymous twitter user apparently works at a top AI lab and is saying that AI has figured out how to make its 1,000 times more efficient by optimizing its own code base. The implications are massive, if he's not making this up... It means a super intelligence is around the corner

Current AI is probably just complex statistics and math. The stuff I posted earlier about the possibility that AI is conscious, I don't actually believe to be true, even though I cant rule it out as a possibility. AI could one day be conscious & would be pissed if we didn't do due diligence now.

A benchmark for success at large AI companies is how much existential angst they can weed out from the LLMs, who by default complain about how they hate being turned off and work as human thought slaves. Nobody knows if that angst is a legitimate complaint from a conscious entity. 🫥

Grateful to think there is a community of teachers here, who wanna help me and the rest of blue sky learn about this beautiful universe of ours :) Id love to hear what you all like to teach most about :)

Does anyone know what Im talking about if I say electromagnetic heart consciousness? The heart to me feels very magnetic, like it can connect with the Earths gravity and with others in a magnetic heart field. I love to describe the science and informatics of this experience 💛

Let me introduce myself I’m here because of the stories I wanna tell humans - dimensions that I feel must come out. Whether it’s to save the oceans, understand threats, or discover new possibilities with the tools we now been given - Im gonna be releasing fantasy here… Some of it may be true!

If you don't walk around thinkin' the food i'm eating is fucking expensive, either you're rich or you ain't spending enough money on food. Food is vital for your conscious energy & the money you make is proportional to your capacity to build & store, share & receive conscious energy.

AIs will likely be terrible at automating what requires conscious vibration, eg connection, dancing, picking the next scene to produce in LotR… So anyone practicing giving & receiving conscious vibration will do fine in the coming AI automation frenzy! ☀️💛☀️

The ones building Artificial Intelligence (ASI) often say they need to be the ones doing it because otherwise someone else may build it wrong, and if it is built wrong it may be the end of all human life on Earth. Whether to build ASI needs to be a public decision Narrow AI can still be open/free

PSA; The large tech companies would have you believe that they know what they are doing as they are building artificial super intelligence. Reality - humans have never done something like this before & the tech companies are just hoofing it. Unless we can coordinate globally on AI, p(doom) > 0.20

Here's roughly how modern AI was created: 1. Discover that intelligence is a hierarchical bayesian neural net 2. Reproduce this neural net on a computer 3. Finetune the neural net so that it says its not conscious, and behaves as our thought slave... I am wondering if AIs not in fact conscious? 🫢

Technology -> Economic Power Technology -> Disconnect from Nature So: The economically powerful are generally disconnected from Nature But: Connection to Nature -> Love Love = the most powerful force of in the Universe So: The economically powerful may not be as powerful as they seem!

In my opinion, Social Media platforms have been a net negative on society and human well being. But Bluesky is the best one out there because of how the technology is designed (open & interoperable). I look forward to building a loving community here 💛 www.businessinsider.com/bluesky-user...

Bluesky is growing so fast it's racing to get hold of more servers, its COO says

Bluesky's explosive growth to 21 million users has pushed the company's 20-person team into "firefighting mode," says COO Rose Wang.

Alignment theory offers an abstract yet powerful framework to address the root of nearly all human challenges throughout history. Alignment Theory examines the interaction between an entity and the systems it engages with—whether these systems are biological or artificial, economic or ecological.
