Jeff: Ramji used to talk about how Vedanta welcomes scientific inquiry. It looks like AI is now approaching the human equivalent of synthesis. Humanity might just need to adjust its notion of itself as being no more than a collection of previous experiences. I believe the human race is about to be shaken to its core. Enjoy.

Sundari: What’s new? The human mind is just a synthesis or collection of previous experiences, that is what the nondual teachings point out. It’s not real, and its problem is it thinks it is, does not know the difference or even how to discriminate between what is real and what is not because it relies solely on inference and senses as a means of knowledge. None of which are capable of revealing the nondual Self, Consciousness – that which is always present and unchanging. AI is just a reflection of that, as caught up in mithya, duality, as is the jiva deluded by Maya.
The game Isvara is playing with the field/mind is very interesting. It always has shaken things up, nothing ever stays the same. And how it is shaking things up these days is kind of cool in a way. With AI, it is even funny if you think about it, that the jiva identified with the reflection of consciousness in the mind is getting fooled by the reflection of the reflection!
It will never change the fact that you, the witness to all the fun and games, are unaffected
Much love
Sundari
