Quoting myself retrocasually.😉

In practice, nothing will give me a girlfriend, excluding my own DNA, my health, wealth and my actions (including my mental states). Also, this is why people should shut the hell up about their pet theories, stop making fucking assumptions and go fucking maximize the hell out of all of those variables. Anything beyond that is cope, because it has zero causal relationship with the process of finding, building and maintaining a relationship with another human being. But, I'd say socially that god has put her my way under very specific circumstances as a poetical way of showing appreciation for our relationship. As an outer-game in a relationship, I find it beneficial for building a story together, that sort of stuff, but carefully, I should save the L-bomb strategically, otherwise I'll sound needy. I like it, I'm soft inside, I like that kind of corny Disney love, but I don't use it as fucking cope, if I just prayed/visualized enough it will land on my lap with no change of actions. I like talking poetically with a girl I like, playing the lower levels on the spiral dynamic. It's nice. Even though I'm at stage-yellow mentally, and approaching slowly the higher level (not quite there, I can't embody it). I love that exchange of words of affection, and anything goes when it comes to it. Even though I might find her like some sort of cyborg through planning doing thousands of approaches and writing personal private in-field reports to improve my skills, and strategizing ways to change my lifestyle to become hyper-social in a deliberate manner. I'd still frame it as something that just happened naturally, or whatever other nice words of affection would sound socially/poetically warming. Socially, you just don't want to be this weird person putting down the sayings/worldview that they find emotionally uplifting.

😂🤣 Bro, your mind is so clear (I'm not being ironic), that you cannot comprehend at first glance the Christian world view of miracles happening to them. It makes me remember that I didn't think that alcohol was the major difference between night game and day game, because I don't poison my brain with that crap. If you murked up your brain with a christian world view, it would sound as natural as it gets to say so. That's basically just a way of saying that they are grateful for their girlfriends in the ultimate way they can describe it: Literally, the almighty creator of the universe has put them together. Then, you also need to shallow a blue pill (the game/dating sense) so it makes more sense.

Btw, to me consciousness is different from mind. What scientific-minded people call "human consciousness" is merely describing the localized human mind, that's part of the bigger set of consciousness. I haven't seen yet infinite consciousness like how Leo says - it just looks very murky/theorical to me anything beyond my mind and what it's fabricating, but I've had a lot of deep insights on my own mind. i.e.: A la "Book of not knowing" by Peter Ralston.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Society_of_Mind I find this concept pretty close to how I can directly inspect on my own mind. Nothing new here, I just thought it was nice to share it, since I saw it being referenced on a Reddit post I found through googling about Large Language Models (LLMs).: https://www.reddit.com/r/Futurology/comments/10ybsjf/theory_of_mind_may_have_spontaneously_emerged_in/ It's pretty obvious to me LLMs are in PRACTICE some sort of mind, even though it's highly debatable how that emergent phenomena works (i.e. data vs raw intelligence, stochastic parrots, etc.). Well, from the field of cybernetics, we know the threshold for an "entity" can be pretty low, i.e.: human organizations. But, LLMs have passed an entirely new threshold, both in a theoretical and practical way.

Medical? I think you must be careful. I hope you know the drill about safety already. Hallucinations, fake info sounding real, etc. If a model like GPT-4 hallucinates, smaller models are hopeless for safety. You can use Kaggle free GPU beyond Google Colab for example. Beyond that, you can fine-tune on a powerful gpu your models (by paying some form of cloud compute), and deploy them as smaller fine-tuned models, that's the only way to overcome the quality-performance issue. Also, there are lots of deployment possibilities that would allow for stuff like running in a chain the model so its output would be better (in theory).: https://langchain.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ Also, perhaps for your needs, you just need a really good local search tool, that uses an llm tech to return info from a trusted body of work. Search for that. The simplest is simply vector databases. I'd side with tech that will return text from a trusted body of work, and using the LLM just to interpret the users input, as opposed to relying on it generating. The entire Wikipedia english raw text is about 14GB for example.

Right there close to Hot Witch Girlfriend references, and the 2014 Halloween special. lol.

So everyone knows: I've seen counter-recommendations against meditating on the physical heart. I don't remember where, but I'd look it up if anyone reading this is concerned.

That's called: Cybersquatting / Typosquatting What big companies (the owners of the brand) do is to actually buy commonly misspelled versions of it and redirect them. If you are bothered all you can pratically do is to buy those mispelled/similar versions before anyone will decide on it. I've heard about someone called Michel Soft (Idk the spelling) getting sued by Microsoft. They need to be doing trademark infringements, like purposefully trying to clone you, and even then, it's an expensive legal hell. Another practical tip: DO NOT BUY ".CO" a lot of people will believe it's misspelled version of ".COM". Don't worry so much about it. Most people those days will click on links anyways.

I listened to the first 38 minutes. One of the best podcasts episodes I've ever listened. There is no way around hard work at trial and practice.

People are already looking for that, creators simply amplify their wants. Mr. Beast isn't even the worst of all. Just look for YouTube videos made towards children, it's pure "sludge", absolutely non-sensical, and actively harmful (sexuality mixed with children's cartoons). At least Mr. Beast has some sort of coherentish narrative/plot. But it's no better than the stuff we would have no traditional TV. Parts of our society already had that talk before, about the shallowness of most of the content on TV. But for example, at least in Brazil. The biggest TV channel (TV GLOBO), they have a somewhat equilibrated display of different things, but not too much, they can't put too much education of the public, because it can be too niche and people would tune out. But I've seen them trying to improve, and not being so shallow. I remember they removing certain humor that was cheap and geared towards laughing on the backs of opressed people (poor people, etc) and tuning that stuff completely out. But also on the other hand, it has been getting too politically correct. I can see changes happening in our society. Can you see we becoming more politically correct for example? But somehow it's becoming too much? Mr. Beast tries to stay wholesome as much as possible, I don't see him being cruel/tasteless or toxic on purpose beyond what's needed to give people what they want to see. I seem him as somewhat an improvement. But idk what direction mankind is going culturally. It makes me wonder, could we become so degenerate one day that we have literal porn (and the hard stuff...) on the front page of tiktok/youtube, and that is just normal? Currently, we have a lot of nudity at best. Well, actually thinking about it. The children stuff on youtube... There is minecraft "porn" on youtube basically. That shit is fucked up.

One of the only games I'd play, besides flight simulators, that I'd play just for the sake of experiencing the tech/beauty of it. But I won't waste my time grinding the online mode when it comes. I wasted too much time with entertainment for a lifetime. I'll play the story mode till the end and for the rest, I'll just chill/explore the game. Hope to put 100h at it at best.

I use Text-To-Speech to read to entire books for me. I can go on a walk with a nice comfortable 120 WPM reading to me, but I can listen up to 2x~3x depending on my attention and mood, I've read many books just by taking a walk. It's also very practical, since audiobooks can be more expensive/hard to find, they take more storage space & bandwidth. I used to use "Spritz" I can "read" up to 500WPM perhaps. But as Leo said here, it's not enjoyable. Any book that's worth of my attention is worth more processing time than input speed. So much so, that using TTS off-loads that cognitive bandwidth of having to sit down to pay attention and use my visual field to process information, and instead rely on much more comfortably listening to it. I use Google Books app, I highlight what I want. I also switch back to reading with my eyes as well whenever I want, as opposed to an Audiobook.

I already write in my common-place book/note-taking app anyway. The act of writing by itself helps me flesh out those ideas/insights. Here at least I get to have others answering from time to time. I also spend 95% of that time just consuming the content that's very specific to the issues I'm facing. I look for very specific info of the forum by searching through Google ("search site:actualized.org"). But I have to limit it, I tend to stay too much on theory.

Well, it could be fine-tuned with the transcriptions of his videos. Use "Whisper" to transcribe it, then fine-tune with it... But feeding it psychedelics is another story, lmao. Maybe, you can play with the weight of: A) 60% Most of his content B) 40% Higher weight for the videos he's speaking of his deepest experiences. C) Introduce random changes, like how the other user here mentioned. D) Play with other different parameters of the network. Play with the weights and check the outputs.
