    Wow! This is exactly how I was also comprehending. Human made is not artificial, that is how nature constructs and humans being part of nature, what we do is part of how nature constructs itself. Organic world became conscious and intelligent, now inorganic world is becoming intelligent through us and that we call as artificial intelligence. Actually it is inorganic intelligence which could evolve into inorganic consciousness at some stage.

    I love how we're moving past the conversation of god into true knowledge and spirituality

      can you please elaborate because this statement sounds like nothing more than a word salad in an attempt to sound intelligent.

      @@jedbradshaw4192 the debate over whether or not God exists is useless, as it's impossible to know. So moving on from that brings us closer to the real questions.

      @@UriyahRecords Buddhism came at minimum 500-600 years after the OT. Who knows if the OT had any influence on it, prob not, but the eightfold path and 10 commandments are pretty similar. There’s not many religions or spiritual practices that don’t believe in God but ya you’re right Buddhism doesn’t. I agree with your comment to the other guy

    Changing and creating things are things we used to attribute to Gods. Well millions of us still do.
    But I don't see that as special as the humancentric view that we are the way the Universe can get to know itself or we are the Universe being conscious.
    Because building and changing things is something all life does, since the very first cyanobacteria and probably before. Anaerobes probably ate through rock, changing the landscape. From bird nests, to dammed rivers, to bee hives, to maintaining coral reefs, to mating shrines. Humans are not alone in this though we maybe the most influential trend setters on Earth.
    There is no limit to how deep we can understand things, I don't think. Being able to explain the Universe to ourselves in a way no other life can is special. And we get better and better at this without having to evolve. That's very special.
    But can we explain the Universe to other life besides ourselves? Because if we can't explain the Universe to life on Earth, not even whales, dolphins, octopuses, or chimpanzees, then how can we pretend to believe we are the archivists and breathing consciousness of the very Universe that can explain the Universe to life among the Stars?

    I get it except for the evolution part: we've been killing each other thru out all recorded history....and we still are, so on that level,not so much. But yes, from star dust to observing the stars, the universe built us and now we see it intimately and are in awe.

    History matters. Everything has a history in its structure similar to DNA. Here she speaks of our decryptions and definitions are human centric and flawed. She ask we be specific and not so short sighted. We are a smidgen and the systems are not defined by us and the system sure as heck was not made for us specifically. We are still important because our being thrives as kings for now in it with all the other complex life forms. Ancient philosophy said the same thing in a non material way.

    That's a pretty long explanation for humans being relatively the same because of universal reasons like the earth's rotation and gravity . What science will discover is like the Olympians grew brains 😮

      I have only seen elves on salvia. DMT is a way to travel to the afterlife and speak to a consciousness that permeates the universe. The Overmind.

      In my head canon I think of Sara Walker and Lee Cronin are evil Anglo theorists who are reappropriating Deleuze Assemblage / Agencement theory for a..let's say Lex Fridman type of audience
