Alan Watts and Terence Mckenna AI convo 3

A completely ai generated conversation between the two , I feel like Alan's voice is almost spot on
This is rather interesting , don't quite know exactly how I feel about it
It's fascinating to say the least 
--------------------
 54. The true nature of things is to be known personally , through the eyes of clear illumination and not through a sage : what the moon exactly is , is to be known with one's own eyes ; can another make him know it?

I think it's a great potential to use AI in spreading the good and transcendent. In the frightening aspects of AI, nevertheless we are its influencers, and should do our part to input and call on programming/data toward higher natures and qualities.
But that anyone can be made to say or do anything digitally calls for vigilance on the face of things, even if with 'someone' familiar.
I enjoyed their talk. Amazing the voice generation and language composition.

-how to optimally use AI to spread goodness and peace
AI can be used to spread goodness and peace in a number of ways. Here are a few ways to optimize its use:
Natural language processing: Natural language processing (NLP) can be used to analyze social media posts and news articles for signs of conflict and tension. AI algorithms can then be used to provide recommendations for peaceful conflict resolution.
Sentiment analysis: Sentiment analysis can be used to monitor social media for negative sentiments and hate speech. This information can be used to provide targeted interventions, such as counter-narratives, to promote peace and understanding.
Predictive analytics: Predictive analytics can be used to forecast potential conflict and violence. By analyzing past patterns of violence and unrest, AI can identify areas and situations that are at high risk of violence, and suggest preventive measures.
Recommender systems: Recommender systems can be used to suggest actions that promote peace and understanding. For example, social media platforms can use recommender systems to suggest pages and groups that promote peaceful coexistence.
Education and awareness: AI can be used to create educational content that promotes peace and understanding. By analyzing the language and tone used in existing educational materials, AI can suggest ways to reframe the content to be more inclusive and peaceful.
Empathy development: AI can be used to help people develop empathy and emotional intelligence. Chatbots and virtual reality simulations can be used to simulate scenarios that promote empathy and understanding.
Ultimately, the most important factor in using AI to spread goodness and peace is to ensure that it is developed and used in an ethical and responsible way, with a focus on promoting human values and dignity.

This is really nice and all, but also one can clearly see how this could get out of hand and turn into some nightmare scenario.
1984 here we come.
Sure things might appear great at first, then you start to give something more power thinking it's creating peace but in reality it creates a cell for people which violates their free will. I wonder if certain advanced forms of technology might actually enslave people by making them more "peaceful" which just means making them docile and not able to question what's going on because they forgot how to think from having some advanced technology do it all for them.
We should still work on our understanding of things from an "organic natural" route because of how unique each individual is, qualia comes to mind here.
How could a machine understand qualia since it can't have the human experience of them? What is blue to a machine? Humans have so many ways of describing blue besides just a colour.
How would a machine which doesn't have gender or sex relate to sex and the myriad qualia which makes sex appealing to so many humans?
How could a machine understand psychology the way humans do without turning humans into "robotic minds" which are devoid of certain expressions or feelings which make them more empathetic or nurturing towards others?
How could a "robotic mind" be more empathetic or nurturing towards children than a human adult who has been a child before?
One discipline that people think will still be prevalent after machines get certain jobs which were currently human dominated, is psychology and its satellites since machines at their current level cannot relate to certain things the way humans do.
I know if I was on a mission to Mars and my family member died and I got word of it I would want to consult another human and not a machine which has never experienced what it is to be soul, flesh, blood, and spirit!

Agreed. I posted what AI said about it more on impulse. It should be kept as a servant, and others use it to advance exploitation. Gaming up in whatever we do, which also is spiritual detachment, independence.

I am horrified of ai technology progress to this extend. The conversation generally consist of quotes of them but not just random copy paste of quotes...Conversation makes sense and flows, that is beyond my imagination ...

That was really weird. I think the AI got Alan pretty spot on, but it was creepy the way the hollow tone of the recording devices originally used by Alan were recreated. Terrence was just off, too smooth, too deep of a tone and it was missing his overly sharp pronunciation. I don’t think he really used contractions much either, but it’s been a while since I went on a McKenna binge.
Either way, I don’t like it haha. Fucking creepy.

I like the real thing, that video feels like I am being deceived by watching a fake version of something. Qualia seems relevant here.
