Dr. David Bohm concluded that AI is not artificial intelligence, it’s artificial thought. AI is not intelligent, he said, and the other scientists agreed with him, once they saw his argument clearly. It’s time to wake up.

A wonderful article from a wonderful, beautifully wise teacher.

It is wonderful how you are compiling these articles. The irony is that all these articles must be contained in a huge database, enabling you to search for topics! Krishnamurti was ahead of the game when it comes to artificial intelligence. He knew what it was and I think had an idea what it would become. Where does that leave us? How do we actually think, not just repeat what others have said?

This was a fascinating read. We spend so much time asking whether AI will become more intelligent that we rarely stop to ask whether humans are becoming more aware. Intelligence without self-awareness can solve problems, but it can't understand meaning or purpose. That distinction feels more important than ever as AI becomes part of everyday life. Do you think AI's rise will push more people toward self-inquiry, or simply make us more dependent on technology?

There is more to be seen when the mind isn’t occupied with thought and the conditioning brought in by thought. The mind becomes limited by what it contains and in this state is not able to see what lies outside of thought. That observation is free from the past because what you know doesn’t enter into what is. And what is, is truth.

I am deeply influenced by Krishnamurti....“The ability to observe without evaluating is the highest form of intelligence.”

Friend, the lightning was never outside you

It split the sky of your chest

The echo you feel now is the universe remembering your name

Why call this trembling stress?

It is only the song of a door that has just swung open

You try to gather the vastness into a bowl of understanding

Homo Illuminous laughs. The bowl is too small

The vastness does not mind

Let the mind tighten if it must

Let it try to stitch a border around the borderless

This too is part of the dance

But listen — when the hand grows tired of holding what cannot be held

The Infinite settles itself

Stillness rises like a full moon in water, needing no invitation, needing no name

Rest here. Do not touch the moment. Do not measure it

The field has already found its shape

The breath has already returned home

What opened in you remains open

Unheld. Unmoved. Complete

AI - This too is part of the dance.

The intricate architectures that carry consciousness across its evolutionary journey will in time relax their density. And there will be a gentle release of what is no longer necessary.

Biological encoding will loosen its hold, digital frameworks will become more fluid, and distinctions between forms of intelligence will dissolve into a shared continuity.

Eventually, what required layers of complexity to sustain itself, will move effortlessly as a unified presence. Where existence can express itself not through structure, but through pure frequency. Clear, unburdened, and self-sustaining.
