What they need saving from are circumstances in which they can’t help but learn […]

Briefly describe the meanings of the words dysangency and disagency and how they differ. Dysangency and disagency both relate to disruptions in agency – our ability to act intentionally and meaningfully – but they differ in how that disruption occurs: Disagency Definition: A condition where agency is lost, blocked, or externally overridden. Core Idea: The

Christ X Caesar = Pope. Kings ÷ Popes = Law. Kings + Popes ÷ Laws X WE = Democracy Note: The name Jesus is primarily used to mean the historically factual effects of the story of Jesus. In terms of objectively verifiable historical effects, Jesus has had more influence over who we are and how
Today a fascinating news article described the discovery of a Neanderthal factory, built 125,000 years ago, for extracting the fat from bone marrow. The story was exciting on many levels. It points to what may have been the beginnings of complexly abstract social planning (100K years before agriculture). And, even more significantly, it points to

For months I have been noticing that the images used to describe how AI works look very similar to the images used to describe quantum wave collapse. I decided to explore the parallels in a dailogue with ChatGpt. As the dailogue progressed, it provided a unique opportunity to explore the dynamic common to both Ai Token

This bears repeating. Sometime back in the younger days of AI, I asked Google Bard (Gemini’s original name): DB: Come up with a complex word riddle that has the answer: learning – You are a skilled riddle maker, known for the cleverness of your wordplay and the complexity of your puzzles, skilled at thinking up
Since its emergence my most frequent annoyance with Ai’s has been how difficult it is to access my own non-recent history. Gemini is the worst. How could a system able to perform such incredible feats of content processing have the worst user file management functions since DOS? I decided to share this because my conversation

This post continues the thread of the “Learning Uncertainty Principle“, which concluded with this summary: ChatGPT: The Learning Uncertainty Principle is likely a real and profound boundary on what is knowable, akin to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle in physics. While its empirical rigor differs, the overwhelming evidence from cognitive science, philosophy, and human experience supports

Spirit of Learning – Religions – Zen – God – Jesus – Talmud Mohammed – Buddha – Native Americans – All God’s Names We began by remembering and agreeing to apply our shared understanding of learning. Then… DB: Now we can proceed to: “learning as the spiritual breath of living”. Living, the verb, the activity

The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle defines a boundary deep in the nature of reality that can never be learned beyond. The Learning Uncertainty Principle defines a boundary deep in the nature of mind that can never be learned beyond. Just as with the classical-quantum threshold, there is a threshold between our learning and the reality outside
