ChatGPT can finally do text

The internet, the web, neural networks... We seem to have discovered the format of…something important. The brain? The mind? Life? Intelligence itself?

As we’ve seen, the ideological winds of any platform can shift. If you’re not making decisions based on the underlying technology, you’re leaving yourself unprepared for the future.

The Benedict Option calls for intentional Christian communities to preserve faith amid cultural decline. An AI-age version would build human-centered, tech-savvy communities that engage AI ethically, preserve knowledge, foster deep relationships, and resist AI-driven control monks for a digital era.

We all know when AI surpassed humans at chess. When did it surpass humans at checkers?

What’s the “AI survival” version of the Benedict Option?

I love how blatantly Christmas songs (and stories, and the nativity) say the thing that’s so hard for modern Christians to say. Love and goodness is the power that will literally transform the cosmos.

I saw “Homestead”, the new Christian prepper movie. It was very mediocre. But the message was surprisingly positive! “You can’t just bunker down. You’ve got to innovate! And that means caring for those outside your compound.”

“Science is ritualized repentance”

“The founders of modern science thought of science as worship.”

A company just discovered a method to reduce the number of injections involved in IVF by 80%, from 10-14 days to 3. This is a game changer. I explain the new method, and why we should all be max accelerationists when it comes to biotechnology. www.richardhanania.com/p/bioacceler...

Another level: Concluding that truth-seeking fields like science, etc, are themselves the kinds of myth-based communities that secularism can never sustain. www.instagram.com/reel/DDqiDWm...

Christ and the Future

Do you belong on the Christian Transhumanism list? bsky.app/profile/did:...

Christian Transhumanism is the good news that Christianity is not about souls escaping to an immaterial heaven—but about the renewal and redemption of all creation.

At Advent, Christians expect and hope for transformative power to enter our world. Transhumanists await this advent for the first time. Christians await this advent for the second time. Both embody humanity’s longing for renewal, transcendence, and the fulfillment of our ultimate potential.

Do you share these goals? Then tell me and I'll add you to the list: go.bsky.app/E2oy2jV

“what is truth?” Pilate asked Jesus Truth is the reconciliation of conflict, the act of epistemological atonement. Fitting then, that Pilate asked Jesus. Fitting too, that Pilate could not hear the answer.

If we get total control over the machinery of life, we should resurrect not just the dinosaurs, but entire extinct ecosystems.

Christ is the light of civilization

My opinion: Nothing in this space is very good, yet. Not Threads, not Mastodon, not Bluesky. But on the central priorities tradeoff here—Bluesky has made the choice I care about more: credible data portability.

Christianity is worse is better

The light of consciousness must spread throughout the cosmos—and Christ is the light of consciousness.

Early invites Bluesky was very much the tpot userbase and accounts like @theophite.bsky.social and @berduck.deepfates.com by @deepfates.com.deepfates.com.deepfates.com.deepfates.com.deepfates.com were popular. There was a shift after larger invite waves. A lot of those users returned to Twitter.
