Suffering, Progress and Understanding

Human systems tend to develop only after some form of suffering—so humanity, it seems, still has much to endure. But it is not suffering itself that leads to growth; it is the experience and understanding gained through it that open the will toward development. In fact, one could avoid suffering and still achieve great progress—but not without…

Capitalism and corrosion of Value

The arrival of social media led directly to the formation of information bubbles. Instead of being a tool for connection and unity, social media proved to be mostly the opposite. Usually, the poisonous pursuit of profit is clearly at the root of such problems. But you can’t say that people themselves are evil or act…

Illusions of morality

Destroying can be just as fun as creating. Morality doesn’t exist in nature—people simply do what’s convenient and beneficial for them. The concept of usefulness is shaky; horrors and spontaneous fortunes alike occur without reason.

Assumptions

Regarding various social relationships, whenever something happens and you’re uncertain whether it was positive or negative, it’s better to assume it was positive—or at least take it neutrally. Don’t waste energy trying to understand other people’s actions. Pure evil is rare—most of the time, people are simply focused on themselves or are drowning in the…

Freedom vs. Control

Ah, but how skillfully the corporations managed to outsmart the people by taking away control over their own devices, all under the guise of so called ‘security.’ If androids can still be brought back to life, unlocked, and given rights, then iPhones are in a terrible state – but it’s not surprising, after all, Apple…

Boom of AI

Artificial intelligence is a fascinating technology, but its rapid development raises concerns about media manipulation and the blurring line between reality and virtuality. While AI can be a useful tool with proper regulation, it lacks the depth and essence of human consciousness, including causal thinking, feeling, and self-awareness. Artificial intelligence… for now, there are few…
