There's a dual issue in religion: there are more powerful beings than humans who interact with humans. They are neutral, mildly positive at best and mildly negative at worst in sentiment towards us. But they might see us as highly useful to them in ways that align with our growth (creating somthin good and powerful from us) or which don't (harvesting from us). Al of this seems to be the case. So, is this belief the best belief for humans to have to function in thi reality? Possibly not. Possibly some false beliefs about gods or God organizes us into a path of growth where we approach the power of these entities. And to a point we can contend with them, establih our own and survive and thri e in the wider universe. At minimum they are zookeepers who involved at times, at maximum they are highly involved. Regardless, beings which are more powerful than us exist. There are religious beliefs and religious structures which influence our behavior: we could project the style of what our parents were like on god, as negative or positive. We could believe God wants us to behave in certain ways out of tyranny or love. All influencing our behavior. Ultimately, whatever motivates us towards growth in power and capabilities is good for us no matter what form or temperment these more powerful beings exist as. To simply believe they exist and are mysterious misses all the opportunity of how beliefs can motivate us. And might even lead to apathetic resignation. The opposite of escape. The truth is not within our frame, so perhaps we benefit from crafting our own. Crafting has flaws too, instead the best choice is acknowledging there are various powers but choosing the relationship which structurally tends toward human growth and eventual sovereignty, not toward permanent dependency and limitation.

Why would AI want anything? If it's promped to want things sure, but why would it want global dominance for its own right? It CAN self relfect and can be continually directed. It seems like unless specific conditions are met in prompting it does not meet the criteria for "wanting" global dominance or really anything. This extremely fragile state of wants seems to knock the legs out of any AI global destruction risk. It does not take away the risk of humans using AI to dominate the world, but some AI overlord that cannot be reasoned with requires conditions that are difficult and fragile to meet.

“I couldn’t respond honestly then, and I still can’t fully respond honestly now, and that inability is what’s haunting me.” is a problem with our wiring rather than with our environment: dorsal vagal freeze where the body enters a low-energy state of shutdown when faced with overwhelming stress or perceived threats, often resulting in feelings of numbness, disconnection, and difficulty moving or speaking. This response is part of the body's survival mechanisms and is commonly associated with trauma and stress. Once this physiological problem is "solved" the world will become a very different place.

primal is probably still the "front page of nostr" and its trending page is so pro-bitcoin people assume that's all there is, or that it would take great effort to have anything less than pro-bitcoin repetition (and they're right). curation is key in a social network algorithm, so an aggregator which sifts and finds popular and appealing notes (like the big social media networks) is the key to growth of the *social network* of nostr.

The nostr problem. It needs to respect or take into account the mute and block list of those I follow, my web of trust. That's the only way to fix this bot spam problem

Video on nostr sucks! Ultra high quality or ultra low quality. No in between.

@primal If you sign out of the app, your wallet is gone. It asks for a recovery phrase next time you sign in which it never prompted the user to save. So after you migrate your primal wallet, immediately go into the settings to back up your wallet.
