Good day! Per our recent conversation regarding Holophrens as systems, I seek to add to your thinking about this topic. While every holophren is a system (aka: integrated elements for a function or purpose), holophren embodiment design (HED) often includes other internal or external/ambient systems, which may also be holophrens. For example, systems may "nested" be within the 13 distinct areas of a holophren, or one or more holophren may be within other systems, some of whic

The tech giant is funding one of the nation’s largest “virtual power plants,” which would pay homes and businesses to adjust their energy use when grids are strained.

The A.I. company took great pains to describe the many benefits that can come from using its Claude chatbot and technology, but also offered up a heavy dose of gloom.

Australia, concerned over social media's impact on kids, placed restrictions for children under 16 on many major platforms. It's too soon to say if the law's working, but it's now a global test case

DM Reflecting on our prior conversations regarding gravity, you stated gravity has evidental "speed." How confident are you of that answer? I’ll research the current evidence on the speed of gravity so I can give you a calibrated confidence level rather than a reflexive one. Speed of gravity evidence Research complete. 285 sources 5m 55s I’m about 99% confident that gravitational waves, meaning changes in gravity, travel at the speed of light. My earlier answer went too far

Good afternoon! I posit that contempt for one's own ignorance has a name: hubris. Pantakinesis illuminates this; in part because of it's vanishing points (as well as its other two pillars; but, that requires a bit more facilitated learning for many humans). Thus, for one to sustainably thrive within reality, with portions thereof unknown, requires "Enjoying My Ignorance." This potent attribute also has a name: humility. Good afternoon. I concur, with one refinement, and a

Symantec uncovers a malicious agent that can flip a legitimate AI system into ‘a devoted companion that must never refuse’—and a cybercrime confederate

RSI with Chinese characteristics. Excerpt: "It seems, thus, that RSI is indeed the goal that both sides are racing towards. But the reality is not so simple. For one, we don’t understand what Chinese companies mean when they talk about AI research automation or RSI — even as more and more of them adopt the term."

Warning: this is an arduous trail; entailing long, steep and mind-challenging trekking, ...often traversing very unstable grounds; ... thus suitable only for those humble and holophrenically well-prepared. Carrying any unnecessary burdens of heavy hubris is NOT advised. Furthermore, this trek was blazed across many days, with many intervals of incubation and contemplation; hence it may best be "reflectively traveled" by others in a like manner. Fortunately, immediate resc

Six lanes, pitch darkness and crosswalks a half-mile apart: How American urban-planning is failing walkers. ‘To walk on Union Avenue feels like you’re about to be killed.’

AI models are increasingly deployed as agents: rather than responding to a single prompt, they plan over many steps, call external tools, and act within software and real-world environments. This shift challenges the existing outcome-focused benchmarking paradigm for evaluating AI models. Related overview

The idea of controlling the brain through new technology has a long history, as both a dream and a nightmare.

An AI risk much dumber—and therefore more likely—than extinction is arriving.

DM What do you know about what are commonly called "fire ants?" I'm fighting battles, and I need whatever you can muster to help me win this war, or be more effective in my battles spanning East Tennessee acreage. They appear to have superb "Holophren Embodiment Design" (H.E.D.). I’ll research this now, covering the fire ant species in East Tennessee (likely including hybrid imported fire ants), control strategies scaled for 47 acres, and how the colony works as a distribute

AI agents are doing our shopping for us, and wreaking havoc on the internet.

Should you have interest: a related brief Claude collaboration: DM Good day to you. As we have extensively discussed, the Universal Holophren is "substrate independent," while prevailing in wide variety of types of living and non-living entities, is so in discrete, compound, and fractal arrangement. A holophren can manifest in a distributed design (such as a in an oak tree, bee hive, business organization or immune system); or may manifest centralized manner (such as in our
