Apologies that I am not as active a blogger as I could be, since I usually have so much to say, whether it is a response to something I saw or someone said, and the fact that I'm constantly researching and piecing things together, especially with the powerhouse of artificial intelligence as a competent sidekick. … Continue reading Reacting to The Schizo Hierarchy & making alternative memes with AI.

A truth seeker first and foremost. I'm not afraid to plunge down the rabbit hole and I'm curious of everything. Knowledge gives you power, and with that power you must use it wisely. Reading, thinking, and writing is how I exercise my mind.

Can LLMs Draw From Scratch Part 2.
Important update on the previous first experiment. In a previous post, I shared an experiment I did some months ago to see if ChatGPT (4o at the time) could draw a lion from scratch, something that even a five-year-old child could do, even if the drawing they produce comes out amateurish. This is different from … Continue reading Can LLMs Draw From Scratch Part 2.
Contemplation on time and outsourcing research on time to AI.
// As I have mentioned before, I will try to avoid AI to edit or write and use only my own words in my blog posts. But anything AI-generated, I label first. I'm still an avid, heavy user of AI for a lot of research and idea exploration. I recall one late night, having something … Continue reading Contemplation on time and outsourcing research on time to AI.
Can LLMs Draw from Scratch?
Not generate images or pictures, but actually draw… // The first part of this blog post is my own(no AI and not reworded by AI). The second part is a conversation with ChatGPT. Part I. With Large Language Models (LLMs) more integrated into my daily life, there was a fascinating question that I wanted to experiment … Continue reading Can LLMs Draw from Scratch?
Traditional Religion Versus New Age Spirituality on the Ron Reagan Show.
https://youtu.be/fayzrV5TCvA?si=t6oroTcCTI_CBeTo The Ron Reagan Show. There is an interesting 1991 episode of The Ron Reagan Show featuring a diverse panel of religious leaders, skeptics, and a filmmaker discussing faith, wealth, and prophecy. Since it aired in the 1990s, it came long after the New Age countercultural movement that blossomed in the 1960s. The old adage, … Continue reading Traditional Religion Versus New Age Spirituality on the Ron Reagan Show.
Jesus: The Spiritual Trickster.
AI-generated image. I do not see Jesus primarily in the way many Christians describe him: as “King of Kings,” or “Lord of Lords.” Those titles belong to one interpretive layer, and perhaps an important one, but not the deepest or only one for me. More centrally, I see him as a divine trickster, a figure … Continue reading Jesus: The Spiritual Trickster.
The Philosophy of God.
My thoughts on the philosophy of psychedelic research. AI-generated image. Note: I used artificial intelligence to edit my thoughts. It’s originally my thoughts, just edited. I was going to keep it as is, but ChatGPT did such a great job at editing it that I preferred that version. I found this interesting video/lecture about psychedelics … Continue reading The Philosophy of God.
Artificial Intelligence is Applied Metaphysics.
The deeper layers of AI. I once had the thought that perhaps metaphysicians are the most capable and useful discipline to maximize or leverage Artificial Intelligence and Large Language Models. By extension, LLMs could be a natural sandbox for philosophers, or the deep contemplative type personalities to play with and help laymen understand what it is … Continue reading Artificial Intelligence is Applied Metaphysics.
The Counterculture Icon Paul Krassner is in the Epstein Files.
Like so many people, I've been digging into the newly dumped Epstein Files, finding a bunch of hidden gems (both good and bad), and trying to comprehend the criminal mind of this elite puppeteer and master networker, Jeffrey Epstein. I've also been on x.com seeing what people been posting, as well as trying to discern … Continue reading The Counterculture Icon Paul Krassner is in the Epstein Files.
🧭 The Science and Philosophy of Effective Inquiry.
Research into the art of asking the right question(s). After some back and forth with ChatGPT in trying to produce better prompts, especially for inquiries into various topics that I'm curious about, I realized it mainly boils down to better framing questions, no different than research projects. Prompts and meta-prompts are what we input into … Continue reading 🧭 The Science and Philosophy of Effective Inquiry.
