Episode 70: Human Instrumentality
Content Warning: This episode I elected not to bleep out rude words.
Departing from the normal agenda of analyzing Confederation philosophy through the lens of specific channeled materials, Jeremy relates some thoughts he’s been having since working daily with artificial intelligence tooling for software developers. The central paradox in the application of this philosophy to real, material human life is that of the self-aware instrument: a tool to be used by another intelligence, nevertheless imbued with self-awareness and the animating desire of the upward spiraling light. What does it mean to be sovereign and free as well as an instrument? How can a mere tool bear responsibility?
Jamie keeps Jeremy on the rails as they explore questions like: do we have free will, and if so, in what sense? Which part of ourselves makes the decisions? If our waking consciousnesses are too helpless to progress spiritually on our own, does instrumentality help us begin to cooperate with our greater, plural selves to orchestrate a more intelligent manifestation in space and time of the timeless, ineffable Original Idea of the One Infinite Creator?
