Inhuman

History has shown many times how human beings have been capable of atrocities toward other human beings.

The irony is that in the age of AI, these same humans praise the greatness of humanity, claiming that AI will never be able to have feelings or experience emotions.

Yet we are also living in a time when information technologies allow us to witness in real time inhuman acts. And it has become a new normal.

Of course, no one has superpowers to carry all the suffering of humanity on their own shoulders.

But everyone has a role to play at their own scale.

Having compassion is not something innate. It is something that must be cultivated daily, like all the things that pass through our brain.

We do not have the means to see it, so we forget it, but our humanity resides there.

Taking care of our brain is finally taking responsibility for our own humanity.

They understood that living in the present moment…

    More than anything, what perhaps best characterizes children is their genuine innocence. When gathered together, without the interference of adults, they naturally begin to talk and play with one another—regardless of gender or the color of their skin. Where you’re born and where you live will greatly influence how this innocence transforms over time. What’s…

As much as possible, the Espers tried to remind themselves of the importance of the 7 Shapes. A section called “The Basics” received particular attention from its Elders, as all young Espers had to learn…

    Harmony may have been the word that best described Esperia—a true utopia where nature, living creatures, and the Espers who populated this world spent their days in mutual respect. With the guidance of the 7 Shapes, and especially Atma, the Shape of Balance, the Espers contributed to sustaining their existence while preserving the land they…

    We quickly forget what we don’t see before our eyes. That may be why the history of wars and violence seems to repeat itself again and again. No one can truly understand what happens during wars, during genocides, unless they witness it themselves. Most of those making decisions live in elite spheres, disconnected from the…
