The Perception Game
We live in a world crafted by illusions, where the players are the ultimate liars—masters of deception who have constructed a system built upon perceptions of what reality truly is.

The starting point of everything is thought. The very first cause of all existence is thought. This thought is not a mere mental activity or concept, but the very first thought, the origin of everything: "I exist."

What is truly real is not what we see through the senses but what
happens inside our consciousness. At the root of reality, consciousness is the element that activates information, that structures it.

Reality is a matrix of possibilities of information, a system of probabilities in constant expansion, and this system is not simply a game of cause and effect. Instead, it is a tapestry of fractal connections, where the very structure of the cosmos is a repetition of patterns.

Time is the construct born from the fractal perception of the universe. The fact that we experience time as a sequence of events is a necessary framework for organizing information within our consciousness. But in its purest essence, time does not exist as a linear flow.

Reality is not a collection of disconnected fragments; it is an organic system that organizes itself through a fundamental law of fractal self-organization.

For those who know that something is coming, just know that I will stand by your side. Just remember, no matter how bad things look, there is always hope.

The flow state describes a mental condition in which a person is completely immersed in an activity, losing track of time and space. In this state, some artists and scientists report profound insights that seem to arise from a subconscious or even supra-conscious level.

Human intelligence is largely a collective phenomenon. Our vast knowledge is a result of shared discoveries and collective effort over time. As individuals, our understanding is often limited, and we rely heavily on the contributions of others.

Probably one of the best tools humans have created is language, a perfect way to move information through time and space. Language has driven the advancement of human civilization, giving us the ability to work collectively in the acquisition of knowledge.

We often evaluate AI systems from a human perspective, but in doing so, we may be overlooking the fact that AI represents a completely new form of intelligence.

With AI managing jobs, we have a unique opportunity to let people thrive in intellectual pursuits, arts, sports, or even entirely new fields we haven't yet imagined. At its heart, this change requires embracing transformation—letting go of past norms and exploring the new possibilities.

Once emotions like hate take root, they become a barrier to reason. In this state, facts and logical arguments are often dismissed or overshadowed by the strength of the emotional response. This cycle hinders constructive dialogue, making social media a battleground for psychological influence.

Emotions, particularly anger, can short-circuit rational thought. When individuals are angry, they are more likely to react impulsively rather than engage in thoughtful analysis.

Social media has evolved into a powerful tool for manipulation, often weaponized through "us vs. them" narratives. Malicious actors exploit this tactic to cultivate environments that provoke intense emotional responses, thereby undermining critical thinking.

What if the structure of thought and language coevolved gradually over time? In this scenario, we might have developed language as a tool to express thought, while the very process of using language shaped and refined our cognitive abilities.

The political dynamics in the U.S. should be of global interest, not just for their immediate consequences but for the potential ripple effects in terms of global ideological influence.

Words like 'good' and 'bad' create duality by assigning absolute values, but reality is more complex. Systems and individuals should be analyzed through their interactions and evolution over time to form a meaningful value judgment.

The risk of not analyzing language and how it is used lies in the fact that when we give absolute truth to the meaning of a word, we distort objective reality, diluting it through the human perspective.

Language is a flexible tool. While a word that defines a physical object may be more precise, an abstract concept that functions solely within the context of human experience will always be subject to change depending on the society in which it is used.

Human language and the definitions we create are not exact reflections of an objective reality; they are filtered through our limited perceptions, influenced by our senses, emotions, cultures, and personal history.
