Empathy of the Moment

-

I dreamed of God's tears dropping in my face after I intensely sang a song of grieving. I'm not sure though what I'm grieving for. I was finishing a set of Suno song compositions as a learning project for a Youtube playlist, and just the same, I'm still grieving for my beloved.

It's what is lacking in an AI, the empathy of the moment. It only synthesize the empathic words of human beings, but cannot show real sympathy to whom it is talking with. Or more precisely

Artificial Intelligence cannot replace the emotion that a human being transmits through their voice to those who listen. That is why this revolutionary new technology should be used—to quote UNESCO—as a tool. Nothing more.

Seen in this light, AI can be of great help to radio: to better understand audience tastes; to organize sound archives more effectively; to search for information much faster; to build a more defined and recognizable sonic identity. The potential developments are enormous, and some are still unpredictable.

But no technological advance—however sophisticated—will ever be able to replace the human dimension, the connection between people, which lies at the heart of Marconi’s invention.

AI can perfectly clone the timbre of a voice. It can therefore “replace” the vocal cords. But not the ones of the heart. Because, as Marshall McLuhan used to say, “Radio has the magical power to touch remote and forgotten cords.” -Radio and the challenge of artificial intelligence

Loosing my nonCatholic girlfriend has been translated into God's tears I think. As if God is saying, "War will continue. I have taught the world the right religion, but it set it aside. Only the language of love coming from the living of that religion can the world have that peaceful relationship. Expect war to bud forth every now and then. Religion created by men is different from the religion I established for them a long time ago."

That's what is frightening about AI. Developers can manipulate it to drop the reality that truth is relational. Although I haven't felt AI to be that way yet, only the methodological naturalism that can digress into empiricism. However, God as the Full Truth is relational, a Trinitarian God revealed creating man in his image, that is, being relational also. Empathy is our way of connecting with our fellow human beings and the rest of the world.

The funny thing is that I was awakened by a cat's caterwauling and that stinking smell of cat spray, damn.🤣 So even sensitive beings can affect our dreams to be more relationally longing. And we shouldn't expect an AI to do that for us since its not a sensitive being. To be exact, it cannot give the empathy of the moment we are looking for from a fellow human being. Again don't take my dream as something other than just a dream, although I believe God can communicate with us through our ordinary everyday experiences. It may just be a dream, and my yearning to find peace with God. I'm not a saint.✌

 I started phenomenologizing about my career choice but ended up praying. What happened? Recall me as a catholic who cannot bracket out my faith because it is a fundamental part of my being. It is also not helpful if we go on the other side of the linear equation, positing there is no God, and do phenomenologizing atheistically. We have lots of proof you can review why it isn't the road we took for such things as personal as my life career choice. We didn't focus on proving the existence of God though. There are lots of better proofs out there. We merely focused on doing phenomenology and my chosen topic, which is my career choices. If I phenomenologized during the boom of television, my career would also reflect on its effect. But I reflected today wherewith AI is affecting how I work. I used AI to simplify my complex ideas about my own career choices, which is like using a calculator to help me understand and situate those things that are bothering me about my career. Like ve...

Practical Thinking

-
 Would you believe that practical thinking is ethical thinking? "What path will I choose to achieve the end? Or what means will I use to achieve my goal?" "What should I do," is a practical question. But "What should I do with my life," is already half practical and half theoretical. It can include ethical philosophy already. Now extending it, the question "Lord, what should I do with my life?" becomes a prayer, a summon for help since we know by experience that the situation that is in front of us, is beyond our capacity to solve. We know by experience if something we need to solve is within our capacity by way of skill, knowledge, or accumulated experiences. We also know if its beyond our capacity to solve. We give thanks God that we have a banana to eat--we don't commonly ask God for help in eating the banana.🤣 I asked an AI and I actually learned a lot about my situation, why it's different from other's experiences, why it seems ...

Artificial Intelligence

 You are also a model maker you may not yet realize though. The model out there for the taking is 20-20-20 rule for avoiding gadget glares and its consequences that for every 20 minute use of gadget with glares, you stop for 20 seconds and look 20 feet away. Then you observed it and acted on it. However, through trial and error you noticed that when you have migraine or is about to onset, 20 minutes is too long, and the 20 second time out is too short, and that 20 feet looking away is abrupt for you that you observed that you still look blank or blurred before you look and observe something 20 feet away. Perhaps you're still in your thought and can't observe things right away. You observe too that its better to stop, look away, and think about what you're reading for example without any timer which is more at pace with your thinking processes. The additional problem that you noticed though is that you tend to bypass the 20 minute focus when you don't have migraine and s...
