Every person has an Iliad. The question is whether we're ready for our Odyssey. Before Christopher Nolan's film, I wrote about why these ancient stories still matter. open.substack.com/pub/chirograph…

@RubenLaukkonen Yes meditation for ai interface but view and activity too. Vajrayana lama ( view) yidam (meditation ) and protectors ( activity ) is a paper I wrote as new ai interface. Mind training is right interface for humane ai. And it is ideology free since you direct it.

@callmeyoung93 @openacti1 Love it. The next frontier is agentic keyboards, and agentic governance. A Digital Triad could let AI interpret human intent, align actions with our aspirations, and apply protective constraints before acting. Curious of your governance model.

@Feathersq0 @JoeRoganRecaps Yes. In Tibetan Buddhism they call it Mahakala or big time. Schelling said breaking ego is taking time producing into your self. Time goes from chronos to kairos.

Kan anticipated modern AI arises from the right kind of distributed infrastructure capable of sensing, relating, and recombining meaning at scale. His product "Infrasearch was “reasoning over latent space” Kan saw that search would evolve into synthesis, long before LLMs existed.

Gene Kan apparently died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound in 2002. Shortly after record lables came after Nabster. Limewire was powered by Gene's work.

@MohammedAlo “Not immediately harmful” isn’t the relevant comparison. Smoking adds toxins. Cholesterol is fundamental human biology—cell membranes, hormones, bile acids. Those are radically different categories.

@sebkrier I introduce digital triad to achieve positive alignment inspired by theory of mind from Tibetan Buddhism. 3 agents: hermeneutic agent (lama), aspirational agent, and protector agent. Ritual stabilizes the dynamic attractor space. It is a theory of love as espoused by Homer.

@mcuban @MySmartCharts Innovation at the Interface: Where Abduction Becomes Governable The true innovation of SmartCharts is not merely predictive modeling, but the interface that externalizes abductive uncertainty into shared clinical space.

@mcuban Generative AI increases the availability of clinical hypotheses, while simultaneously exceeding the human capacity to govern them without new visual and probabilistic instrumentation. SmartCharts is the Missing Instrument Layer for Abductive Medicine @MySmartCharts

@realBigBrainAI @bgurley You’re avoiding the hard question. Abstracting the plow to commodify muscle is existentially different than abstracting creativity and symbolic ritual. Future becomes meaningless when capitalism commidifies identity.

@pmarca @Austan_Goolsbee Marc, please talk to some college students. It is existential since ai is commodifying creativity and abstracting creativity. Creative destruction of their dreams. It destroys the ritual of education that gives meaning to their lives. That is what these students are facing.

@bschermd It is deductive & protocol reasoning, not abductive learning. We match symptoms to guidelines, not to generate & test explanatory models under uncertainty. Medicine is ontologically designed around pharmaceuticals & not ketosis, requires systems thinking & behavioral transform.

@rryssf Yidam practice solves this by design: emotional weighting + narrative + self-model with enforced dissolution. That’s the missing safety mechanism for AI memory too.

@rryssf Without a disciplined double memory captures the agent. With one, identity stays plastic without collapse. Psychology shows memory is reconstructive and goal-shaped. The danger: when identity lacks an externalized, dissolvable form, it fuses with desire and becomes captured.
