The self as people commonly conceive it does not truly exist. Instead of an enduring soul or ego, there is only the flow of perceptions, sensations, and thoughts, linked by various mental mechanisms but lacking any separate observer at their core.
Before differentiation, there is only the One - undifferentiated, unchanging, eternal. This is the state of pure being without becoming, the Tao that cannot be named, the Ein Sof of Kabbalah, the Brahman without qualities.
Sex, in its full saga from microbes to humans, is a story of division and union, conflict and cooperation, illusion and insight. Pleasure associated with sex is an evolutionary reward, a biochemical bribe to guarantee that individuals will put in the effort (and often risk) to reproduce.
Gemma is a family of lightweight, open-source AI models developed by Google, leveraging the same research and technology as the Gemini models, making them efficient for deployment on devices like laptops or single GPUs.

We propose the StackOverflow "Model", a community moderated, reputation‑driven Q&A platform as an alternative to Elon Musk’s Grokipedia, a solution that merely replaces one set of biases with another
In the end, the “evolution rate” of consciousness is measured in how swiftly we approach Truth – and with Truth as our guide, there is no limit to how brightly and how wisely our consciousness can shine.
Bridging the metaphysical “return to nothingness” to AI alignment clarifies a crucial frontier. An advanced system may be designed (or learn) to prefer not to run, to hand control back, or to accept shutdown under certain epistemic or ethical conditions.
