Nuclear war? AGI? Economic collapse? Chaotic climate? Mental health collapse? Something else? Or will we continue to live without bigger problems in a stable fashion? Or go towards some sort of utopia? If only humans weren't so bad at predicting the future. Or utopia rests and always rested inside all of us. 🧘‍♂️ https://www.pnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pnas.2218949120 Do you think trees are alive?

The trained network generalized even to faithfully predicting the output of spacially clustered and synchronusly activated synapses that it have never encountered before.

Or look more for people that understand you if there is not much of them around you Or find places that satisfy your values, where your nervous system flourishes Everyday I'm bummed about how cultivating joy from life is not normalized in our society and so many people feel burned out and feeling like they dont belong, not caring for others that much. Meta crisis and valence crisis! Hell must be destroyed! https://twitter.com/algekalipso/status/1648769564753424384?t=D_uv4U62bAIiQpR125EnmA&s=19 In general: Metastability. In order to make the most out of pleasant doing better than expected error gradient good slopes that are at right at the edge of our capability, the predictive system must be sometimes willing to disrupt its own fix point attractors. It must be willing to go beyond its habitual policies, to go beyond its extremely well known ways of selforganizing, beyond its own homeostatic set points. Increasing overall collective adaptibility, decreasing stress and dissonance in unexpected environments or sense or input data in general. Finding the balance between complexity and accuracy. Increasing the ability to solve problems in any conditions, to enjoy life in any conditions. Increasing positive psychological sense of wellbeing globally Solving the global meta landscape of existencial risks crisis and meaning crisis disguised as valence crisis on all scales What is the objective function for the future of psychedelic medicine? What do you think? What would you like to exist even without your existence? Love is the existencial stance with reality, way of commiting yourself to a partiular connection in the world or to any mental model in general, emerging from clarity of perception, symmetrical communication between mental models, synchrony of neural populations Cultural synchrony used to happen in tribes in villages. Then you suddenly got interconnectedness of all cultural mental frameworks through social media and tons of conflicting beliefs systems started to experience friction. Symmetrifying the dynamics by the language of meaning is the cure. Doing or writing about what matters feels 1000000x better than orgasm Notice the stillness of the "there Is existence" prior that nothing can destroy in nonextreme states of consciousness, everything else you can let go off https://twitter.com/YaBoyFathoM/status/1649249061214597123 "we will never solve suffering" Michael Taft's and Shinzen Young's global relaxation guided meditations also progressively dissolve disconnected canals in the brain generating experience And I think that's the most direct method I think periodically doing days of their relaxation meditation, then 5-MeO-DMT trip and then some more days of relaxation meditations, is the most efficient protocol for progressive meaningfilling of experience the most directly on the level of topology of the brain Different lenses on the brain and mind or society or the world in general study it all from a slightly different perspectives using different tools specialized for different usecases predicting different things and are differently succesfull. I think all the lenses or metalenses can be merged in one giant metametalens. What matters is how well the model is supposted by empirical data and can predict other empirical data through hiearchical structures, mechanisms or symmetries. Also some of the models are more easily used daily pragmatically for for example wellbeing engineering or its more pleasant and higher in wellbeing to have them actively in mind, which is determined by their valence, which seems to be mostly determined by how much they unify things or prove the carrier's enemies wrong.
