Obviously image is created with AI but I thought it may be a better way to convey the info.

I got the idea because I have been working on audit based self improving AI systems

AI image generations struggle with a lot of things, for example in my case it was SHITE at making a realistic rope attached to a climber..Well a few iterations later and codex orchestrators kicked off to do research, I had a layer on top of it that had fixed that

Then I thought..why can't we have an image generator that will have domain specific accretion.

You run the image generator, it creates images (audits them internally to create a log of failed attempts to create the desired image..Say 3 failed attempts = record failure in ledger

Then asynchronously side projects are fired to fix domain specific image hallucinations. In theory over time, it would refer to common hallucinations and apply patches/layers

The real issue is probably resource limitations..if millions of users were using this and generating thousands of hallucination errors for the system to research and correct.. how many tokens would that require.
Please let me know your thoughts and if this inspires you to do something similar! Happy idea sharings - a curious engineer

How was it?
Did you get to stand in the hot seat?
Did you palpably feel the vibrations in the room?

Early on, “only good thoughts” can feel powerful because you discover that attention is steerable. Then you notice that trying to rigidly enforce it creates its own tension. The next level is being able to encounter an unpleasant thought without either obeying it or needing to destroy it.
Namaste

I’m a nerd, I tend to try to see the bigger picture and then break things down to their core components.

Esther and Abraham changed my life, it was like a snap of the fingers and I started remembering
And at first I could feel the pure positive energy emanating from the rampages but couldn’t quite internalize the material

Well some really challenging periods came into my life, and slowly but surely I made sure to start caring how I FEEL. And reaching out for better feeling thoughts, and noticing the subtle changes.

Here is my engineer’s approach to setting up a system that encourages you towards being tuned in tapped in turned onnn:

What if there a seperation between concious thought and passive learned habit reactive thought

For example,
say a traumatized person is A,
trauma free happy childhood is person B

And suppose given
I = conscious self and
i = unconcious/reactive/ego based

And y (for yes haha) = full of love, compassionate
And x (for meh) = disgust with the world, judgement, fear etc

Person A has two paths
In their case i is generally outputting x
So first path with I = y: (inner self is full of hope):

Lots of reactions trigger “me”, pull “me” into rage, sadness, depression

Once I realize I was am absorbed by thinking
(or in other words, I’m in my head, ruminating, overplanning..you know exactly what I’m talking about 😉)

I pause

I bask in my knowledge of the abundance of amazing things that have already happened that I may have forgotten about, the amazing things that will happen and all the amazing things outside of me in the world happening every second that I will never even be aware of!!!

I don’t argue why I felt that way

I don’t say silly things like “if only that person would have had some common decency *said in old grandpa voice”

And suddenly, my conditioned self is no longer the one influencing my inner concious creative self

I’ve reversed the flow

Every day I remember to practice this, the conditioned frantic brain slows down

Just one better feeling thought
And maybe another..

And we’ve arrived :)

Wouldn’t that be nice

Anyone finding this week awesome?

So it’s not us doing the “im so much bettet than than x at x” “fuck this traffic” “why did I react that way”
It feels like a learned pattern
Almost like a the robot automated customer service voice you hear when you call delta to cancel your flight
While we’re the real deal, ultra intelligence, access to focused creative reasoning.

But only when it’s us. Only when I’m writing this, only when my focus is directed

But, when we get sucked in, when we’vefallen asleep again and stop giving attention to reality around us,
suddenly treating the stories and emotions in our head as first class citizens while reality becomes a peasant begging to be let in

Smile
Open your eyes
You’ve arrived :)

Has anyone completely stopped using search browsers with chatgpt now? Google is so ridden with promotions it creates friction for me using it, but with just $20 a month I can circumvent this.
The downside is that hallucinations still happen so I’m still learning to trust it. Makes me wonder if google is taking a big hit in revenue

Ok so I just had a mini breakthrough with my sits and wanted to share in case it helps anyone or someone has additional insight to add :)

So my body has been conditioned to be anxious. Whenever I would listen to guided meditations or read books about it, they all emphasized to follow the breath and deepen the breath. Well here’s what happens to me.

I sit to meditate, immediately my breath becomes shallow, and attempts to deepen it only tighten my chest. Then I go into intentions: “it’s ok that my chest is tight, I will allow what is” and sometimes it would help and sometimes I would sit with the unpleasant feeling.

This made meditation effort, a chore, albeit necessary to strengthen the muscle of presence.

Well here’s where it changed. I decided to try to not make breathe the sole intention, not try to deepen my breathing and just breathe shallow when it felt like it.

Instead I made it into a fun game, I’m going to try to focus on different aspects that invite me into presence and then check in with my body to see how it makes me feel today. So for example, let me switch awareness to sounds around me, or feet touching the ground, maybe try following the breath too or feeling the spaciousness around me.

Maybe it sounds silly, but removing the rigidity and rules made my 10 minute sit fly by so quick and the mind felt way more quieted down than in my previous sits.
Anyways hope that maybe helps some people who see meditation as a grind

I think one of the biggest shifts in meditation is realizing the mind is not necessarily you.

It behaves more like a companion you’ve been training your entire life.

The mind learns through repetition.

If you repeatedly rehearse stress, resentment, worry, self-judgment, comparison, and resistance, the mind slowly becomes conditioned toward those states. Eventually it begins producing them automatically, not because it wants to hurt you, but because it believes this is what matters.

The mind is loyal to what is repeatedly practiced.

But the reverse is also true.

If you begin retraining the mind toward presence, gratitude, gentleness, trust, and stillness, something strange starts happening.

The mind begins helping you.

Instead of automatically dragging awareness into unconscious emotional loops, it slowly becomes more cooperative with presence itself.

You begin noticing moments where the mind gently says:
“Pause.”
“Breathe.”
“We don’t need to suffer this thought.”
“Look at the sky.”
“Come back here.”

A cheerful mind does not feel like forced positivity.

It feels like having a cheerful friend walking beside consciousness instead of constantly pulling against it.

I think many people approach spiritual practice as a war against the mind.

But increasingly it feels more like developing a loving relationship with something deeply conditioned and slowly teaching it that peace is safe.
