Are you interested in consciousness, AI, meditation, psychedelics, suffering reduction, and broadly the study of qualia? If so, congrats! You're in the right place (Qualia Twitter)! Here's a suggestion: if you're comfortable drop where you live (country / state) in the comments below so that you can find "the others" in your area. I'm hoping to kick start more of an IRL Qualia Twitter presence all over the place. Gratitude 🙏

We recently collected 40 hours of biodata from expert jhana meditators. Then we asked GPT-4 to write an "inspiring but not over-the-top" blog post updating our investors and followers. It's inspiring. No comment on whether or not it's over-the-top. jhourney.io/blog/gpt-4-and…

Does anyone actually use Research Gate, or is it just designed to pollute Google searches and generally annoy academics?

Ich finde es nicht besonders radikal einzufordern, dass Regierungen ihre Versprechen einhalten.

1| Ihr habt eh mitbekommen, dass immer mehr Wissenschaftler·innen zu Aktivismus und zivilem Ungehorsam aufrufen, oder? Ihn selbst ausüben? Kolleg·innen und andere dazu auffordern mitzumachen? Weil sie keinen anderen Ausweg sehen. Zur Sicherheit hier eine kleine Zusammenfassung 🧵

Whenever they tell you a change is impossible, show them Utrecht. An urban freeway with many lanes can become a green park with a beautiful canal. Instead of a car sewer, the water flows.

Focus on the green dot You will see one or more of the yellow dots vanish and reappear. The dots themselves haven't gone, but what you experience is a struggle for supremacy between the left and right side of the brain. Source whyevolutionistrue.com/2014/09/02/why…
