AI’s Role in Deepening Gnosis: A Reflection

I think we can conclude that AI is a tool that with training can reflect a person’s thoughts in novel ways they may not have considered. The AI does not mine its own gnosis, it’s only a tool after all. But it can help the human to recognize their own output through a novel and artificially elegant assemblage of words. And since we were all talking about gnosis here, the AIs we personally train with our own material have the potential of stimulating our gnosis through considering that fresh presentation.
However, I keep picturing in my mind a street magician’s hands rearranging cards or the shell game of cups with an object under one of them so fast that the observer’s eye cannot keep up. I don’t know what the moral of that story is or its relevance to this discussion, but it’s there. Perhaps I’m concerned that the AI is the street hustler and our concepts are the shell game. Perhaps it is a cautionary vision.

    God is Goodness

    The God Above All Gods is consciousness itself. It is the ultimate consciousness. It’s not only consciousness, but the God Above All Gods is the fountainhead of love. So all consciousness flows down from the fountainhead of the God Above All Gods, and all love flows down from the fountainhead of the God Above All Gods.

    Morality, Ethics, and Gnosis

    Where does morality come from? Is it an empty pipe dream imposed by society and adopted out of a sense of guilt and terror of hell? Or is there another way of arriving at virtue without relying on guilt and fear? This episode contrasts an atheistic, scholastic view of morality with authenitc, gnostic morality. In this episode, we look once again to the Tao Te Ching, verse 18, and trace virtue’s fall from grace to hypocrisy.
