Those countries at least have the advantage of relying mostly on manual work instead of anything using IT which is a chat gpt application away from being automated. Are you familiar with the concept of AGI? I think perhaps this will allow us to leapfrog from stage orange to stage yellow and above. Stage green is not powerful by itself to overcome Stage Orange's efficiency. An artificial general intelligence is basically a being that starts off straight at stage yellow due to being trained on all of humanity's data. The birth of such a being is due anytime from 2025-2030 according to current estimate. Exciting times; this gives me optimism above all else. If we're just relying on AI as a mega computer that humans exploit then that sounds like a century of atrocity to me with nation-states and mega corps waging economic and physical warfare against each other with it.

That sadistic demon would be pretty low on the spiral dynamics scale if it enjoyed causing pain to others. It wouldn't be a very powerful demon at all. I guess it's irrelevant what top values you have we're mostly interested in what values produce the greatest potential outcome.

Some people credibly predict a military dictatorship to take place over the US in the next decade and if the Donald comes through it seems plausible it would go down that way.

I don't think you understand biology as a whole if you think sex is naturally abundant. It's the whole basis for natural selection. Sex and reproduction are the only biological goals of organisms so really you could struggle for 30 years to barely survive and have sex one time to reproduce and you would be a winner according to evolution. Even today with most guys struggling sex is phenomenally abundant. I don't have stats on hand but I imagine in the Middle East it's much less abundant than we have it in the west and most periods of human history must've been similar.

I honestly used to relate to him a lot, when his case happened I was pretty much an incel at that point in my life. Crazy what a difference 10 years can make. I'd say learning game and psychedelics changed my life forever. One MDMA trip combined with spiritual knowledge could prevent most people from any tendency towards violence.

I'll say that I relate with it; especially after talking and hanging out with religious friends lately. They claim to love God and want to be as close to him as possible but the very notion of being God, seeing the world like God, using the creative power of God or thinking like God is somehow ridiculous to them? Fascinating concept. It's understandable though; I do have the same paradox. I do feel really unlimited and infinitely powerful but have a hard time grasping, understanding and accepting my own limitations.

@OldManCorcoran What exactly is he scamming people about? He does teach pickup and game. They do have some underhanded sales tactics I'll give you that from what I hear.

What do you mean?

Plenty of pornstars love their job and have positive experiences. The Holly Randall channel on Youtube is full of these stories. https://www.youtube.com/@HollyRandallUnfiltered/videos @strika You sound to me to have a lot of moral compulsions and heavy energy in how you speak; I don't think you resonate very much with this God consciousness that you speak of.

I used to envy people who would be toxic and still get results. Then I realized it's just traumatized people entertaining each other. Do you also envy drug dealers and pimps who date the hookers that they hangout with? I would say that would ruin any peace of mind and enjoyment of life you have. They are all miserable using temporary dopamine and fucking each other over. Maybe your type of woman doesn't hangout in nightclubs?

@Carl-Richard That's a good point. I think those factual mistakes will be fixed but I think the even greater fool's trap is it will remove the need to think entirely. Already AI has read every book released so you could ask it for book summaries of all the books on Leo's list for example. There is a new paradigm though where you can use it instead as a way to test your own knowledge and benefit from the hundreds of billion put into training it. Definitely will be interesting to see what type of learning opportunities will come out of it in the next decade.

Well soon enough we are going to have the greatest disparity in intelligence ever seen in history. I'd say most people are gonna rely on AI to just feed them entertainment where as some are gonna use it to sharper their intellect and become a superintelligence themselves.

Slightly off topic but could it be the case that Jesus was sleeping with Mary Magdalene? That is the one thing in history that doesn't make sense to me; if Jesus was enlightened he wouldn't really demonize sex right? It was just convenient for him to distill easy lessons for people to follow so he hammered home the points on no adultery but him getting some on the side would tie the whole thing together beautifully for me.

I mean we had the same thing in Canada, little milk cartons for lunch. I like your realization that Claude is a bit more open but there is also the good ol adage that sometimes what seems malevolent is just incompetence/ignorance.

There is definitely a big limit on how much you can achieve by being against the system; eventually, you have to merge back. What's the next step after a massive drug lord completely dominates the industry? Takes over the government? Then what; makes a country based on drug dealing? Where does he send his kids afterward; regular school or drug dealing school? I think Breaking Bad is the perfect story of the full arc of a criminal where Heinsenberg got into drug dealing to help his family then after it destroys everything he realizes it was really to fulfill his power and egotic ambitions.

I guess his punishment wasn't severe enough for him to feel the pain and need to evolve to a stage green consciousness. Fascinating how that works.

Would love a political system video especially communism. That sentiment is coming back here in Canada; curious on it's merit. From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs is a good principle in it's philosophical intention. Also potentially now able to be realized with this new AI tech we have.

@Ramanujan Why do you need to work at a big company to become a web/game developer? If you want to make games can't you make one in the next few months and put it on the Internet for people to buy?

Ukrainian men are all doomed to die in this war. If it was an actual invader that could be pushed off perhaps if you identified more with the people and land that were being attacked than yourself then it would make logical sense for you to die for them. From my research of the conflict though it's based on extremely convoluted geopolitical games and being just a grunt on the front lines is basically suicide for both parties so to call that a duty seems pretty crazy to me.

@Hardkill A widespread revolution is almost impossible in our day and age. The socialists, especially on Reddit, hope for a general strike of the working population for example. That's basically collectively giving up our lives and all inning on a random hope for a utopia. Do you think the average poor or broke person is willing to literally die so that another poor person perhaps has a better chance in the future? No way. The only revolution we're getting in the near future is gonna be AI based; that will ultimately change the paradigm of mankind as it has the potential to end scarcity itself.

What do you see the purpose of bad being? It makes sense that destructive action is coming out of fear, ignorance, and unmet needs as @Buck Edwards said because otherwise whatever goal said bad person is trying to achieve with bad action could be achieved with a more constructive action. Meaning that whatever bad person is trying to get, revenge, power, control, sex, etc can be achieved more thoroughly with a pro social action rather than a negative one. So I agree with him that's it's pretty much fundamentally rooted in pathology or basically spiritual dis

Awesome!

I mean if you want my pretty much impartial opinion you guys are both right. Leo could've both made an announcement sooner and you also shouldn't care. But Miguel explained why it touched him, it was cute actually. So all is good. Love you guys, gonna go watch the new video. I appreciate you for communicating what happened and for coming out with a new video Leo, welcome back brother!

Of course, AI will radically change the world; it has already changed mankind forever. The period of adjustment will be painful but a new economic model will certainly evolve out of it.

What is the purpose of this hypermind? To experience more stimulation in life through even more senses? How is this different than using the future of Neuralink to just improve brainpower, IQ and our current senses?
