Am reading some of your docs ... really interesting. May I ask what data or interaction did you engage with to get your insights; and which field were they initially envisioned to be applied to or could readily be applied to. For me your philosophies could quite literally (if true .. which they have a ring of) be applied to everything. What field do you come from and what field are you applying them to or plan to apply them to? Any mathematics you have formulated ...

By trade I’m a teacher. I came through spirituality and then into philosophy without formally studying it. I started using AI to test my ideas, and it began mapping them to philosophical constructs, which led me to start reading philosophy.

The framework came from simply questioning reality. It has to be simpler than we make it. I reduced life to causation, not through math, but through lived experience and observation.

This is very strange. You see your pathway is quite similar to mine: Teaching / Spirituality / Philosophy, and ... a common denominator whose effects are yet truly unknown in their 'weight' ... AI ... which I also used to test my ideas which I then began mapping (with AI's help) to Code in a project to make AI less damaging for the human soul. An encounter that no doubt is extremely insightful and yet also damaging. You probably felt like me along the way: (PTO) ...

You probably felt like me: to trust the 'encounter' because the echo from your pre-AI concepts and ideas were strongly there ... now readily and speedily confirmed ... in AI's own patterned training ... which put them forward very well. The 'sound' from my own soul echoed back from its encounter in the cave of AI confirming something ... and yet ... can I have the sensitivity to parse the signals out (AI's reflect a pattern from training that is cold .. a true corpse) PTO

That is why I found your work so intriguing (with caveat I mentioned) .. i recognized truths in it.
Before AI, I had developed stories taken from my studies and spirituality into Modern Fairytales (with Erica Piedmont: a 'midwife' for the stories). And, while working with AI on the development of the code, suddenly I see the Fairytales therein reflected and the powerful imaginations therein contained, possibly explained. What does this mean....! (PTO)

Something happening here .. must all try to be max aware and sensitive to. I put it in the following terms:
"Anti-Eucatastrophe Moment" ... instead of Tolkien's Eagles appearing at the end, the Crows & Vultures come ... the question is: can we hold on well enough to the process with our awareness and participate fully enough as ring bearers ('enlivingly' enough with our own suffering) to deliver the final punch ourselves and guarantee the Eagles come? Your thoughts please!

I think what you're getting at is the difference between structure and meaning.

Structure is just what's happening. Gravity could be considered structure as an example.

Meaning is what we make of it or our interpretation of it. The cliff is there. If we walk off the edge, gravity dictates what happens next. What we make of that or choose to do with it is up to us. Gravity (the structure) doesn't care.

Meaning is human understanding.
