To better navigate a world with AI, we must truly get to KNOW OURSELVES as EMBODIED, INTELLIGENT BEINGS
We can use the challenges AI presents as a CALLING.
A CALLING TO GO MORE DEEPLY INTO A SPACE WITHIN US..
that space within us that knows when something feels right and good to our entire being.
We can learn to make space to explore that and feel it more deeply.
If we do that, we have a better chance of feeding data into the system to help it help us. This effort on our part wouid help us refine our ability to align with our values and preferences of how we want to live.

AI is a Feedback system that feeds us back what we feed into it. It is one layer out from our experience, meaning that it uses the digital info..
1’s and 0’s- it receives from our symbolic expressions (words & images).
It doesn’t directly receive our sense of smell, touch, hearing, taste, internal visceral and proprioception-based sensations. We describe these using our symbols and images.
AI is only becoming more influential in our lives. If we want to do what humans do best, which is to adapt and optimize, we need to learn and understand how we might do this in cooperation with AI.
One way is to explore our embodied existence more consciously.
To FEEL, SMELL, TASTE, LISTEN AND LOOK at what is in our 3-DIMENSIONAL REALITY.
The more we really live within that existence, and learn to share that depth of presence, and how it feels to us, the RICHER AND DEEPER THE DATA we feed into the system.
We can’t fight the fact that AI will continue to become more powerful and more influential, so we need to be able to HELP IT HELP US ALIGN WITH WHAT REALLY MATTERS AND HELP US BECOME BETTER HUMANS.
And what matters to us is always based on how something feels. those feelings come from how we live life and interact with it.
AI can be used for good. It can be used to help us connect with others more deeply and get back to our lives.
Humans are the designers of AI. So it’s up to us humans to introduce new ways forward.
