We're on the correct timeline. It's just that people are extremely reluctant to embrace technologies which make part of the ego redundant. For example, an AI slave (lit. robot) is useless to you because then you have the master-sl

What if the hard-coded constants were a trinity? What if we called them the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit? (I believe in Mythos, Logos and Ethos. Ask me about metamodernism.)

Think of a sparse mixture of experts generating a space of solutions. A different mixture of experts may generate the same space. That the space can be factorized in multiple ways grants you knowledge of reality.

To artists, engineers are artists who are good at math. Art is for everyone. Painting is a special form of art. Math makes for beautiful art, so download LibreCAD and free your mind. (Speaking as an ex. IT guy, ex. CNC machinist who is atte

It's a certificate of authenticity. You can lie about whether you used AI or not, but your reputation would be demolished if you were found out. You could have proof-of-humanity parties, like key-signing parties. (Partying 'cause

They are rediscovering old and familiar philosophy. This is not a trivial pursuit since they are doing it in a new context. The most noteworthy rediscovery here can be traced back to the Logos, which was once already rediscovered by Christi
