“It is vital to analyse everything down to its basic elements, to incontrovertible truth. One must not stop halfway, as is so often done, at some arbitrary assumption or hypothesis.”
- Carl von Clausewitz. On War, 1832 (published as unfinished work).

@jasonfried Hear, hear!

Perhaps it’s time we built one.

Let’s.

[Atif Hafeez @Atif_Hafeez]

@jasonfried That resonates deeply with my own work. More than ever, organisational maturity should be measured less by the number of processes it has than by the quality of judgement it cultivates.

@jasonfried Worth every penny, many times over. 🙏

When justifications become unquestionable, questions become unbearable.

@2nfinitynbyond Cognify is neither an AI hoax, nor a near-term reality. It is speculation assembled from real scientific fragments.

The deeper issue is an agency shift.

Once memory becomes programmable, punishment becomes re-authorship and the prison becomes the loss of self-authorship.

In AI, values are the moral grammar through which systems pursue truth and earn trust.

@CarissaVeliz @Moonalice Thanks once again @CarissaVeliz
See you and Roger then.

@CarissaVeliz @Moonalice Thanks @CarissaVeliz
You meant 18 May ?

Lassitude kills altitude more than the lack of aptitude or even attitude.

@anilkseth @berggruenInst @NoemaMag Thank you, Anil.
In my recent Philosophy of AI work at Oxford I’ve been exploring how conscious-seeming systems recalibrate human judgement (thick, not thin) before any machine consciousness arises, and how organisations respond to this shift.
Would love to exchange views.

All societies reduce to haves and have-nots. Rhetoric does the decorating.

For many, palaces are prisons; for some, prisons are palaces.
Thrones are merely artefacts.

A fragrance must meet the self, not the crowd.

Every Sherlock has a Moriarty.
Not every Sherlock has a Watson.

Blatant generalisation reveals a double failure: the arrogance to conclude too quickly, and the ignorance to inquire any further.

@mustafasuleyman Framing ACI as a monetary test is elegant, yet it collapses intelligence into instrumentality.

Capability stems from capacity for semantic judgement, preceding syntactic objectives.

ACI, to me, emerges when an agentic-ANI moves Turing’s Imitation Game into an Integrity Frame.
