Im not sure how i have been finger pointing, but the fact that your unwilling to say wether you have an affilliation with Israel or not, means that it might be relevant to your motivation for starting this thread. Gaza is being destroyed left right and centre. What difference will it make wether its labelled as genocide or not. Was the Holocaust really bad or just bad ? Can you see how this discussion is a little bit insulting to the suffering happening right now ?

I hear you, lets be honest though ? Do you not have any affilliation with Israel whatsoever ? Because to whom really will it make a difference wether this is labelled as genocide or not ? Certainly not to the people of Gaza. Logically it could only make a difference to someone associated with Israel, ie to ease their minds a bit. I really dont have a dog in this fight. But its very clear to me that there's a lot of denial happening around this topic at the moment. And as i said earlier, it's understandable, but actually not neccessary, because everyone has a Jesus and a Hitler within.

Im speaking truth, sorry if it hurts.

Everyone grows up thinking their country is the good guys. So it's a bitter pill to swallow when your country is involved in some bad shit. Trust me, i know, im Afrikaans, the white South Africans that invented Apartheid. But why are we shocked really ? Instead of being in denial, it's another opportunity to integrate All of yourself.

Stop trying to deny or soften the severity of what's happening in Gaza, by playing around with words.

I take it that you are associated with Israel in some way ?

What are you trying to achieve with this thread, are you looking for a nicer description of what's happening in Gaza ?

New Age meets AI

Technically it should be possible to reign things in with government regulation, but it doesn't seem likely, you right. So, just like with all these wars, when it comes to AI, we will also need some kind of miracle.

Not sure how I'm exalting man. Merely suggesting that just because we can allow something to happen, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's the best thing evolution wise. We can also allow nuclear bombs to go off, but probably not a good idea. I think we might be at an impasse here, don't want to derail this thread too much. Looks like the ceasefire might be over.

I just don't see the point in our own creation becoming our rulers. There's something creepy about that. Think about it, if AI has complete free reign, it can literally reprogram it's own ethics. But AI as a tool in service of humanity's wellbeing, I'm all for that.

AI will already be more intelligent than us. Just because we can give it free reign to reprogram itself, does not mean that it's a good idea, or that that's the way evolution is meant to go. Effectively handing over all power to a soulless entity seems like a recipe for mass suicide. We want AI to make our lives better, right ?

It might not be so easy to fix it once things go crazy. I'm not sure what you mean by: if we are going to do that we might as well let AI win ? What he is talking about in that video, is simply preventing AI from having the ability to reprogram itself. I see that as quite a sensible safety measure. When we put lions in nature reserves with fences. I don't see that as n negative form of control. It seems more like a common sense safety measure.

Authoritative or wise ? Would it not be enough if AI remained as a brilliant tool in service of humanity. What would be the benefit for the planet in letting it run amok ? The potential for catastrophe seems far greater in that scenario.

In a way the people who have been doing proper spiritual work have already been preparing for this psychologically. But it's crazy that there's still no proper government regulation in place.

And it probably will. Besides the economic challenges, I don't think the public is quite ready for the initial psychological suffering that will come with this AI revolution.

I think MAGA is already showing signs of splitting apart.

Things should get better if we can make it to the next elections. There will be a big backlash in the opposite direction.

Yeah, I don't know how this AI thing will play out. On a lighter note, Trump really loves to be the one who names things, says this will be known as "the 12 day war". The ego on this guy is quite something.

Economy will soon be unrecognizable with all this AI stuff.

Are you not enjoying your cake ?

And in other breaking news - Trump just awarded himself the Nobel Peace Prize !

What's happening with this ceasefire ? Did Trump declare a ceasefire without Iran knowing about it ?

I hear you, I wasn't talking about bypassing or inaction, simply pointing to the futility of figuring out which country is more to blame than another.

And karma can be dissolved a lot faster when we honestly own up to our part in things. That in turn leads to a sincere apology for hurt caused. If it's not sincere it don't count. But the most powerful thing is the ability to forgive. That's why Mandela, with all his shortcomings, was a powerful dude. He came out of prison, not with thoughts of revenge, but with a forgiving heart. That's wisdom isn't it, understanding that the other side was also just a slave to it's own survival strategy.
