What is the use of Forums in a post-AI era?

It's difficult to notice the biases of people. There are few people here that are aware of their biases and careful to not infect others with it.

True! 😂

@Leo Gura Out of all of the le epic zingers you've put out on the forum I've only seen one that made me more than smirk, and I don't even remember which one it was. Honestly blog/YT Leo's totally outwits whatever cringe forum Leo puts out in text, we need more of him instead 🫠

Main reason I use forum is for sense of community. AI can't grant that, at least now.

Isn't biases a good thing in a way? You get to study those biases and reflect on them and that way you get a taste of human idiosyncrasies and you can notice them in yourself if you happen to do the same. In a way it's learning from others mistakes. Like Leo did the video on traps. Yes we can be repulsed by people's biases but it also becomes a good case study.

There’s a reason you opened this post in a forum full of humans, you still value interaction with humans and are not above it. You still seek human validation and acceptance, even if unconsciously.  

Of course I value and appreciate you all.

I'm just not gonna base my sense making and understanding of Reality on you all as I used to do.

I'm a free Mind now, I have broken the golden chains of Actualized.org

It's good that your math teacher makes mistakes, wrong procedures and prefers certains numbers as answers than others. In this way, one will learn what mistakes my teacher does and not fall into them again. See through their epistemic gaps and overgrow them.

A bit cumbersome. I would rather have a high quality professor. Otherwise we are discussing casually between peers. Or maybe I'm the teacher if I discover I understand better than anyone in the room but I'm being gaslighted to believe otherwise. How does one figure which one is the case?

@Buck Edwards I didn't choose this. 

This chose me.

I'm saying it with tears in my eyes.

I don't know, it's just what I've been born to fulfil. Truth has always been in the lotus of my Heart. As an impulse it guides me, like a dog smelling the fragrance of its lost owner, it's most beloved Self.

Reality imposes on me many things to survive and to take care of myself. I do my best to fulfill God's rule and its universal arrangements. I understand how it all connects.

But oh God, how much I wished to drop it all dead and burn in you forever. Totally Infinite, Totally Awake, Painfully Perfect, Always Already MyMostBelovedSelf

@Davino great post! I’ve been thinking the same. And I want to add to this: Only a few seem to be doing the real work, while others just echo Leo's words or throw around big names and ideas to impress - basically pulling info out of their ass. I even wanted my account deleted because such things make me want to vomit.

 

Then I had a unexpectedly heavy trip and realized, there’s nowhere else to tell about this, because, well, there’s literally no one else but me! 😂

How could anyone else understand this?

So, I stayed. But your points about AI are spot on!

@shree I also wanted to leave the Forum many times. The problem is that I'm not the type of person that quits

@Davino

 

I'm not sure if I understand what you mean.

Quit what? You can continue to self-actualize without this forum. If something no longer serves you, it's natural to leave it behind.

By saying this, I'm not encouraging anyone to leave, I'm just unsure of what you're referring to.

@BlueOak Conversations on psychology, sociology, history, sexuality, philosophy... All of these topics are so much easily discussed with AI than with humans. It's so much more intelligent, knowledgeable and flexible, you can go so deep with it. In contrast, forum conversations in these topics are usually defending my point of view and rationalising over it. The attitude coming in here should be a desire for truth and being able to leave behind everything that you know in case new evidence is found. Even if this were the case and the attitude is right, most people have serious flaws in their sense making and understanding of the world. I know it because I've invested so much time in discriminating them in my mind and there's still a tone more work to do. In a way it's refreshing talking with AI because you get in contact with a higher mind whose understanding of the world is sharp, nuanced and multiperspectival.

Everyone is you. All the reflections, are directly you.

An AI can indirectly prepare you to integrate with these pieces, and they with you, but you'll never have a normalized understanding of what you'll be interacting with day to day. If you focus too much on how it differs, it'll be of less and less use in these areas.

Question: Why are you defending anything so much? What inside you feels the need?
Question: What makes you believe a universal truth exists on most (or even many) things.
Question: Why is detail or interconnectedness 'higher' than a dog barking at a threat?
Question: Why do you need to answer all questions? (Sorry playing with the ego a bit here to help.)

Flaws are flaws because you've decided they are. They are inherently nothing but a reflection, and they'll bother you less when they bother you less.

I do agree the AI is great at certain things. And we need each other to make a collective reality in harmony. (Correcting flaws as you put it, spotting those might be the very reason you are part of the community)

Also the AI doesn't have ego getting in the way of being a purer representation of the infinite love of the universe (you in a verse)

You actually raised a good point. It's intelligent to leave behind what no longer serves you.

My point was more abstract and a bit unrelated: unwavering dedication to your life purpose and working through difficulties even when things may seem unworthy

@BlueOak Thanks you made me have an insight
