New work: Beneficial Intelligence

I want to find the solution in embracing the Other, because we experience even insects and plants (the beings and creatures that enable our existence on Earth) as profoundly alien.

A piece of beneficial intelligence: The smaller I make myself, the more space I give to the bad things. The more space that I take up with my good things, the less space I leave for the bad things.

This is the premise; we will argue forever what is a good thing, and what a bad.
Anyway, life passes in a frenzied instant and we are at its flooding mercy.

I want to see a world in which there are traces of ancient lives and currents of interconnectedness.

AI: ancestor intelligence.
AI: alien intelligence.
AI: angel intelligence.

BI: beneficial intelligence.

I want to access time’s ribbons of memories.

What I’m missing in a lot of technological developments is the moral dimension — even the realization that humans have a moral dimension and should actively engage with it seems to be missing.

I talked about it with a friend, who agreed, ‘yes, at this point we need aliens and angels to come down and save us.’ It reminded me of the wonderful documentary “Miyazaki: Spirit of Nature” in which Miyazaki Hayao of Ghibli studios reflects on the sense of hopelessness that humans cannot seem to save themselves (and by themselves I mean each other)

This sculpture and the other is me starting to ask, what would benefit us? What intelligence are we missing that we desperately need?

AI: ancestor intelligence. AI: alien intelligence. AI: angel intelligence. BI: beneficial intelligence.
