we are thrilled to introduce an exciting nษw project to the world, Limn !
an R&D studio located at the intersection of philosophy, art, and AI ๐
fly with us!
I think this quote confuses something philosophers & artists should keep separate:
The problem isnโt AI.
AI is awesome.
The problem is how & to what ends most AI is built (as a machine that pushes automation ever further).
That is why we build @limn_ai
differentiation matters.
is AI creative, conscious, alive?
we @limn_ai think these are the wrong questions โ and launched a video series where try to ask better one ๐

โWhat makes AI a philosophical event is that these systems defy the formerly clear-cut distinction between humans & machines or between living things & nonliving things.โ

Itโs one thing to ask if AI can write.
Itโs quite a different thing to ask if AI can read?
Sit alone in a quiet corner, get absorbed by a book, enter the minds or other people, get carried away, disappear in the pages fully absorbed and yet awake, wondering g how to live.
if youโre still trying to squeeze into existing roles, think twice.
the only way to keep up with technology is to invent your own niche and commit to it. forget being a generic product designer, manager, or engineer โ those titles can and will be replaced. what matters is your ability to think, reflect, and create.
radical self-inquiry (a term i learned about from @lennysanโs podcast with @jerrycolonna) is essential โ not just for personal growth, but as a skill that helps you thrive in the tech world.
a philosophical r&d lab is one such path. i love it.
here is @limn_ai about:
limn is a philosophical R&D lab.
we are at home where the present breaks away from the past.
what, today, is so new, so different, that we cannot understand it with the concepts we have inherited from the past? so that we cannot think or build or tame it yet?
the main focus of our work is Al.
we are philosophers, artists, and engineers in the wild.
IN THE WILD is a dialogue series โ- hosted by Limn.
each exchange is a collaborative philosophical experiments designed to discover and articulate the philosophical newness of Al.
First ever episode of IN THE WILD with @Kasparov63 ๐
we talk about :
the art of orienting oneself in thinking;
the experience of freedom;
the power of progress;
what innovation needs;
and about AI, of course !
Follow us on YouTube (link below) ๐
is AI a machine?
a machine in the classical modern sense of the term?
closed, determined and deterministic systems?
or do they exceed what a machine is?
it indeed seems like this is the case โจ
& that has far reaching consequences.
