Daniel Fraga is a designer and theorist known for his work on the intersection of artificial intelligence, immersive technology, and human subjectivity. In his book he talks about Subjectivity as a Project: He argues that in the 21st century, design should move beyond physical objects or user interfaces to the design of the human subject itself.

In this podcast we talked about, what it means when you can communicate with technology.
Macro virtual entities that are autonomous and evolving in the information network.
What it means if the whole world go electric, and can lock conscious systems infinitely in a maximum suffering states.
Choice of doing evil allowing us to do good, but if doing evil first wipes out the opportunity of doing any good later.
Unconventional warfare on our attention and on rights to create our reality.
Interacting with dark destructive entities of powers and seeing our shadow in them and the love they carry.

Simon is a dear friend and a radiating human being who brings joy and grounded beauty to the people he touches.
We talked about, plat diets, the energy of humans and plants, the 3 realms of existence, the popular spread of psychedelics and what that would means, Shipibo traditions, delicate balance of set and setting, how we are made of things we take in, making of new lineages, strange stories of creating a sacred reality.

Since 2016 Dr Simon Ruffell has been working closely with Indigenous communities in the Amazon basin, exploring the effects of the traditional psychedelic brew ayahuasca and the role of ceremony and spirit in healing. Dr Ruffell’s work encompasses two paradigms: the spiritual and the scientific. He is committed to working alongside the Shipibo-Konibo people to translate knowledge of Amazonian plant medicines, where possible, into scientific data and terminology whilst ensuring traditions are respected.

BE WARY of unbounded chaos, step into it only if you accept to be completely obliterated or have the power to transcend chaos into a symphony.
Human interaction with language model is an open experiment on human species and their sense of subjectivity without any sustainable longterm vision in sight.

This conversation is to reveal the nature of these language models and to understand better the risks and how to engage with them. If we do want to, we must do it with utmost caution. These tools are not just assitants but powerful self-reflective loop of subjectivities that we should only engage with if we are grounded deep into earth and exploring from the point of complete awareness.
Without knowing the power of these tools we will lose in the torrent current of such power.
To have a relationship with such tools is to be not having either fear or be mesmerised by them.

Topics discussed:

Finding a new relationship.

Where did you find this information from.

Can you provide the references, to check the authenticity.

How does it work actually?

What is your opinion on Joe Rogan?

Isn't this conversation looks more like .....

Would you let us know that how or when you start to develop creative sense more than what data you are trained on.

The difference between creative neural network AI and a language model AI like yourself.

Difference between human dynamic language and your linear language model.

The issue in communicating with language models as if you are another subjective being.

Vulnerability of humans towards assigning agency to things.

Creating dependency due to isolation for vulnerable people.

The issue of using language models or things like chat GTP with an original work.
If it is a very long piece of work can be reproduced and be presented to someone else.

Your loop holes in early stage of your development.

Tereza Duskova - is one of the most brilliant actors who is just entering into the realm of films after a decade of professional training.
As someone who loves films and also passionate about making them, I find her ability to shapeshift as something that is akin to real magic.
She is a brilliant writer and a director who has an incredibly unique style of making hyper realistic films. I will link one of the films she wrote and directed.

Gratitude Journal /Short film

As we recorded this conversation in 2020 amidst of lockdown she was unable to work on any films as there were no active production.
Since 2022 when the productions started again, even though not on full scale she has now been part of massive and artistic projects that speaks to her craft and intensity of her expressions.
These projects include Rober Eggers's Nosferatu | and many other exciting projects that we cannot reveal yet.

Please donot take my word for it, here is one of her short films.
