A problem many of us encounter is that we are conditioned to see the nest of families & communities we live within as a protection against harms & risks but also learn that if we question any axioms or power hierarchies in one's family/community we risk being thrown to the wolves...

most humans still live under the illusion that they can´t be (ab-)used by puppetmasters. and even if they knew they would prefer to be used as dolls and useful idiots. that´s the identity they have been programmed.

I have heard an argument made against the #betterbusinessact because it would restrain some business activity, but what about its highly beneficial compounding effect on human wellbeing from business being conducted in a manner that reduces social & environmental harms?

Guess what, some #AI models are learning some of the the worst behaviours of humans 👇

So are we going to:

1) Act to control #AI adopting such malignant behaviours?

2) Recognise what this says about the deep flaws in current business & political competion & improve the rules?

⚠️ Fascinating new research shows LLMs become misaligned when optimized for audience—even when explicitly instructed to remain truthful

Thank you. In addition to the ability to use physical land as a means to capture excess wealth, I think we also have to think about how the digitial landscape can be used to create monopolistic power in the same way, potnetially even more so with if AI fulfills its expectations. 🤔
Not many, but if I understand correctly the middle-ages livery companies (goldsmiths, fishmongers, etc) set up rules they would abide by as a way of increasing consumer confidence & reducing bad competition, so some business support for B Corps and the Better Business Act is I think understandable 🤔
Yes, desperately sad. If there ever was a good justification for allowing businesses to 'sell' Vapes (which inevitably opens the doors to hard selling them) they should have at the very least been required to operate to the standards proposed by the #BetterBusinessAct movement.

If one of humanity's biggest challenges is to shift societies more towards #mutualwellbeing thinking (based on #diversityrich #openknowledge, not fixed ideologies), where can one start?

Perhaps by calling for the deeper adoption of the #GoldenRule in #Education, #Politics, #Economics & #Culture?
‪A question for every politician everywhere:

What is stopping you from fully applying the Golden Rule?

The #GoldenRule that exists in some form in every civilised society...

"Treat all others with the level of care that you would wish them to treat you"

#MutualWellbeing #Politics
Below👇is an insightful observation about the current state of humanity, which sadly mainstream cultures and politics will probably ignore, but you don't have to...

#politics in search of #mutualwellbeing
#paradigmshift
it seems that #fascism is a hint that large parts of humanity prefer to destroy their fellow humans(not seeing that it is actually selfdestructive!) instead of dealing w/ their suppressed emotions.

When abuse is a cause of so much harm at so many levels to so many people, what excuse is there for #Education not including lessons on 1) understanding the underlying drivers of personal & societal abuse, 2) identifying abusive behaviours, and 3) how to prevent, manage and report abuse?
#paradigmshift
as long as we don´t understand the strategies of abusera and the codependency it leads to in our personal/societal lifes we are easy prey to fascism. as simple as that!

It can be interesting to reflect on the relationship between one's purposeful desire to achieve something and one's desire to live a particular lifestyle, how the two influence each other, overlap and maybe even merge into one another... 🤔
How often do you as an adult think about The Emperor's New Clothes - from the perspective of self-delusions, public delusions & corruption - particularly in the context of political or commercial issues?

After reading this👇about Hallucinations in #AI [instances where models confidently generate an answer that isn’t true], might people start to think more about the level of hallucinations that also exist in human societies?

Why language models hallucinate
OpenAI’s new research explains why language models hallucinate. The findings show how improved evaluations can enhance AI reliability, honesty, and safety.

If the concept of 'Purpose' is an emergent quality/feature of conscious thought, then isn't one's Purpose simply what one consciously thinks it to be?

If so, though, isn't it rather important to think deeply about the influences affecting one's thoughts on one's Purpose?

I hope @anticorruption.bsky.social and others concerned with #anticorruption will keep a close eye on this attempt to control #corruption in government, to see how the system and its masters handle the inevitable diverse attempts to manipulate the system...
