#AI might be amazing... but we need each other more than ever. Human connection.

And making human connection better ourselves if we have to...

IT'S WORSE TODAY because of who owns / runs it and how they do things and what they do behind out backs and who else is in with them.

TECH PROGRESS IS MORE OF A LIE TODAY because of WHO owns the tech and what they do behind our back...

#VIDEO #QUOTE
"Because the #story of human #progress is a #deceit perpetuated by charlatans."

(i.e.) TECH PROGRESS IS LESS USEFUL TODAY because of the #charlatans behind it, who own the tech and do all sorts with it or the power gained by its success.

🇺🇸 #TECH IS #POLITICAL 🇺🇸
🇺🇸 (a lot of it #USPol) 🇺🇸

IT'S NOT JUST "TECH" AS A TOOL

Inspired by "Free School" movement in the 60's & 70's... I practice educational living and learning life together towards #DIY / #Caring / #Art of #Life etc: in whatever way that suits and directs the individual.

More on that 60/70's movement here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_school

Text and short-depth understanding isn't doing it for saving humanity. So learning and your own action / direction is important. To get better examples that lies parents were fed or chose not to face.

MORE.... OR JUST RESPOND TO ABOVE PLEASE...

I feel like Short-text / Short-reading by people directly undervalues people and longer understanding - it's cutting corners reading only short things and proportionally killing the planet / cutting people who write more off.

That's why I'd like to do audio conversation now... (anytime) so we don't get stuck in the text realm either and just speak lightly in the ethereal / spirit of life.

People are the depth and action of the culture so if text is not deep enough then culture dies. Audio conversation I have can put back the reality into people.

Just sticking to yourself dosn't work. We can solve almost everything as our efforts can double if we are relaxed but do it constantly over tiem... it's OK "it's all political" (!) and our opinions too... so letting go too far into "Politics" of "Leaders" is not the way we want to go... as a #centralised system (of control)

Your decisions can be made and changed doing short depth + short depth (=long!) which can reinforce those bad things less by seeing the depth in tricks (like chess it's "aha! I realise why they made that move now") .

Don't let "Short-ism" make you think it works for you (it's the opposite). Communicate more and build normal people up. - Increase more #sense and #society but socialising incrementally like at a party.

The 'human condition' needs A HUMAN WAY OF FIXING THINGS in a social-communal situation... not a ultra-tech way.
We have #Mastodon and #Jitsi etc - we just need to increase trust step by step and measure ourselves as we go.

🙎 Develop people, not just the tech! 💻 ✈️ 📱

I'm working with anyone aligned / those that know themselves or want to as it's a natural human thing we need to solve (not just tech etc).

Get in touch and even have fun with it all!

==============================
More description
==============================

The Free School movement I feel is "the best way" for people as a transient flexible "school" of fish / people in life because it's YOUR way and your likes mixed in however you want guided by others in the same class or other t give another perspective..

As long as you trust yourself and trust a few others more while measuring while mixing, then it's all good and essential can't be bad - especially from these distances.

Opposite of the above would be: working isolated in a loop... without encouraging contact ...working for bad people / state
...while not giving back or seeing what others have to give
...and reading the news in a bad loop #doomscrolling as I do (and need your help to get out of!) ... only to complain about my adding to it.

So feeding yourself better comes building others in trust and people upwards not downwards pushing. Therefore:

Mutuality, Education, and maybe Friendship can help 🎈 WIN:WIN:WIN 🎈 for us all in this world ...or at least #Fediverse to start with.

📖 Towards a more caring intelligent planet and better mindset of people... but also not over-specialising...

I'm here to broaden your like as a friendly person and to encourage your own thoughts *and* action to happen.
We need to be appreciated and appreciate a few more - that alone is enough!

More togetherness means more ☑️ correct communication ☑️
to get there (and balance)...

Short "ism" or short reading by people kills the planet and those people don't read deeply and fall into newspaper tabloid headlines (also short) and reacting too much almost as an #addiction.

#CONSTRUCT YOUR #DREAMS !

Build your dream(s) and maybe mine at the same time (both!).

Don't be afraid to share - even though it might be natural to try pull back. I don't think there is another way around this by carefully sharing and doing it with bad people filtered out (but not everyone filtered out as we all lose that way being cut off) .

Aagain measuring me and you (and others) we can avoid killing ourselves and others killing us (directly and indirectly) for profit (it's all linked back to banks and state who as root don't #care). So while we pretend to be '#independent' (which doesn't exist or very lightly does) I think we can truly undo things 1 at a time or just by not using things too much like #AI etc.

Those who feed from #mainstream (from the people behind it) surely will mess up again and see less and less gains over time). Short-term some AI benefit but long term chained-to-machine type stuff and robots judging us (robots are just people / leaders behind it controlling..)

🗨️ I reply to your interests and you give some ideas... we do what we can and like... more freely / towards each other's freedoms.

Consider *developing people* (or just me) at the same time in your work also - not just #developing machine code, but #decent people are the KEY to everything almost FOREMOST...

If people's lives are machine-like and computer-orientated then don't complain if that's what you get !

The cold Matrix system is all using $computers and #tech.

And that tech is being bought or regulated by the likes of #Musk / #Trump / #Bezos etc mostly since they have more leverage against everyone and using #banks also as negative force / debt generators.

In the end we lose with only tech, even with Mastodon without regular chats!

(yes computers are too fast and even nice things get used badly but only we can stop it (by developing better people to use better things in a better way). Give me a hammer and I won't break windows.

Working on better people is the better way at the end..

============================

MORE BELOW - COMMENTS SEPARATE GENERALLY

#FreeSchool says: "For me it's about developing better emotionally intelligent people (#EmotionalIntelligence) not just developing #Technology and developing #STEM...

The Tech way would be very lop-sided and in-human, and I think we're seeing that with tons of people doing Tech while leaving humanity without proper human interaction and communication developed.

Isn't it a wonder how much money goes into other things more than caring / developing people or to really listening to problems. Sure it's not profitable and that's why unhappiness continues [as a result of profit].
You could see profit as inverted measure of damage to nature and it's people (directly or indirectly as #habitat / #urban #environment / #climate or again lop-sided human #development... for more profit and less happiness).

More #emotionally #intelligent #decisionmakers are needed for the way so it's WITH others going forward to understand better and make better decisions (in their own life / company and externally with others). So many projects fall apart for example due to #emotional issues in groups...

Tech is abusing and also taking advantage of these kinds of default "idiots" (untrained but clever people in a few compartmentalized fields or #specialists) and less emotionally intelligent people are not excluded from lesser human intelligence overall). Yes it could be you doing A LOT of one thing and never the other...

================
TECH IS POLITICAL...
[MY ADDED COMMENT]
================

Tech is political if money, the people behind it and profit are a measurement.
"No wonder" how much money goes into #STEM more than caring about people / listening to problems at the same time. It's proportional profit to not caring / developing better people / principles, as Tech can skip and cut that out to serve owners agenda.
Doesn't help that #jobs help #compartmentalise everything to whatever trigger chain it wants to make, and anyone in a job shrugs to say "it's not my business" to care for the rest of the people / life.

=======
SUMMARY: I think it is our "job" to care even if #states don't pay for it...
=======

Can expect any $tate looking for it's own money to really care or take less money from people as time goes on (instead of more using banks (negative #maths), #STEM, etc..)

Comments appreciated.
