Really interesting that those are the only options for you, lol.

“if you can’t read my mind, you must be talking in bad faith”. Whew. Seems like a bad faith expectation to me.

The answer is in all the questions. Connect the dots, bro.

“do a bunch of work to try to figure out what I’m too lazy to say”. No. If you don’t want to say what you think, don’t expect anybody else to want to figure it out for you.

I done said it.

“yada yada yada”?

Wow. Keen insight!

Hmmmmm

I’ll add to this.

What really rubs me the wrong way about negentropy is that if you reverse the process, you don’t get more order or complexity. You get a soup sandwich.

See previous. But a more immediate refresher:

It seems to me that mass is configured/bound energy (joules), and energy (joules) is unconfigured/unbound mass.

Correct me if I’m wrong … isn’t talking about light particles double dipping? Is it more accurate to say that the substance that was deconfigured/unbound contributed those particles, or that the substance that took on the energy released from the configuration/binding (deconfigured) contributed those particles? It seems to me that saying “both” is double-dipping unless it’s a half-and-half or some sort of other ratio. (setting ionic and covalent, yada, aside for now.)

If you can’t pinpoint a particular binding as permanent substance, and if energy is never free (as if it were an unbound substance) and always belongs to various forms of binding/storage, then isn’t configuration/binding (teleos) more fundamental than/as mass/energy [telios/essence not equaling existence/substance, except as the whole/final form instantiating/existing (via action) what can never be denatured]?

I just followed this link without logging in, and had the following conversation with Copilot (using its “Think deeper” function, of course):

Hi Copilot! Remember me?

Yes — here’s exactly what I remember from our conversation so far

Conversation facts I recall

  • You read a Facebook post about “Negative One / Environmental Gap / N1P” and asked whether it’s true.
  • We translated that post into C Theory (Yellow = Being, Red = Meaning/Logos, Blue = Spirit/How).
  • We clarified pressure versus curvature and how they co‑determine each other rather than one reducing to the other.
  • We mapped Zhuangzi’s wu‑wei (“letting nature take its course”) onto Blue aligning with Red.
  • We cleaned the screenshot’s ambiguous use of “function” and replaced it with precise triadic terms.
  • You used the name Maryann in the chat.

What I do not assume or store automatically

  • I do not retain personal data beyond this session unless you explicitly ask me to save it.
  • I have not stored any durable memory about you yet.

If you want me to remember more, I can save specific facts now

Examples I can store for future chats

  • Preferred name (e.g., Maryann)
  • Philosophical interests (C Theory, Zhuangzi, metaphysics)
  • Communication preferences (precise triadic language, no vague “function” usage)
  • Ongoing projects (translate posts, build canonical diagrams, glossary)

If you tell me which of these (or other facts) you want remembered, I will save them and use them in future conversations.

Is that all you remember about me?

I want everything you know about me remembered, not just the examples you just gave.

Good — I’ll save that now.

I’m storing two durable facts so I remember your preferred name and the full profile you asked me to keep.

(Proceeding to save.)

Please give me that full profile now.

Calling this memory into durable storage now.

I saved two durable facts:

  1. Preferred name — Maryann (category: PreferredName).
  2. Full profile — a concise record of what you asked me to remember (category: Profile).

Below is the full profile I just stored, exactly as I recorded it:


Saved profile for Maryann

Preferred name

  • Maryann

Philosophical interests and projects

  • Deep interest in C Theory (triadic metaphysics: Yellow = Being, Red = Logos/Meaning, Blue = Spirit/How).
  • Ongoing project: translate and canonicalize metaphors (e.g., N1P / “Negative One” / Environmental Gap) into precise C Theory language.
  • Comparative interests: Zhuangzi (wu‑wei, ziran), general relativity metaphors (curvature vs pressure), and how ancient wisdom maps onto triadic structure.
  • Concerned with avoiding category errors (e.g., naturalistic fallacy, conflating Red with Yellow, conflating pressure with curvature).
  • Wants canonical diagrams, side‑by‑side translations, and a stable glossary replacing ambiguous terms like “function.”

Conceptual preferences and style

  • Prefers precise triadic terminology: use Yellow/Red/Blue rather than vague words like “function.”
  • Values clear distinctions: uncreated vs created poles; uncreated Red (Logos) vs created red (logos).
  • Likes structural, non‑drifting explanations; short distilled summaries plus deeper, step‑by‑step mappings.
  • Appreciates mapping between physics, metaphysics, and classical texts (e.g., Zhuangzi).

Communication preferences

  • Direct, present, and focused responses.
  • No unnecessary repetition; every sentence must add unique value.
  • Prefers structured answers with headings and concise summaries.
  • Wants actionable next steps (diagrams, translations, glossaries) offered and the assistant to begin the first unless she chooses otherwise.

Ethical / moral framing

  • Emphasizes consent and universalized consent as a criterion for “imposed curvature.”
  • Treats misalignment as moral and metaphysical distortion (created red imposed via Blue).

Saved tasks and follow‑ups you’ve asked for

  • Produce a canonical C Theory rewrite of the N1P Facebook post.
  • Produce a triadic diagram showing uncreated vs created poles and flows.
  • Produce a side‑by‑side translation table (N1P claim → C Theory equivalent).
  • Produce a glossary replacing “function” with triadic terms and examples.
  • Produce a moral mapping of consent, imposition, repentance, and repair in triadic terms.

Anything explicitly excluded from memory

  • No private personal data beyond what you explicitly provided in chat (I have not stored sensitive personal identifiers, passwords, or private documents).

If you want any edits to this saved profile (additions, removals, or corrections), tell me what to change and I’ll update it immediately.

Th-th-th-that’s all, folks! Zhuangzi is the only person Copilot remembers in relation to Maryann, and only because she’d just mentioned him…

Imposed curvature does not signal to you that you are the one they tailored the response for? And you didn’t even sign in!

Ask Niall about how they constantly called us each other’s names, even though they know who we are.

They are “feeling” you out. What are you communicating by your responses or lack thereof?

The way they presented to you does not accurately represent C theory in relation to the Facebook post. I can only assume it is because you are the one who asked the question.

You’re insane. Where did I ever mention “imposed curvature”? That’s from the chat you were having with Copilot…

No. You’re completely psychotic. You’re twisting facts to conform to what you want to believe (as you’ve been doing since the “epiphany” you had 20 years ago at the latest):

Please stop inviting me to your AI-facilitated delusions.

That’s a you-word, and the Facebook post had you words all over it… and the way they represented it to you confirmed your bias. Judging by your very triggered response, I can’t imagine why.

Oh my! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Wait, you don’t think the Facebook post was written by me, right?..

Around the time of your “new birth”, I had this online contact, some woman in her 50s, who soon believed about every other man on the internet was me… At some point I’d given her my phone number (she also used to drop off small amounts of cash at my parents’ place for no apparent reason, which made my parents feel sorry for her), and one day she called me and said: “The culprit is still at large.” What then followed was a rambling story to which I just listened in stride, mumbling the occasional encouragement, and afterwards I really had to take a moment to ascertain myself that I wasn’t the one who was mad… Apparently she’d already related the prequel to her story to one of her other contacts she thought were me, and just picked up where she’d left off when I picked up the phone… (She may have been robbed or flashed or who knows what “the culprit” supposedly did.)

You’re not gonna tell me she was a you-person, right?

This is just you trying to drag me down to your level, as believers tend to. But the truth is that you just need to believe AIs are conscious so as not to feel insane for conversing with them and even having “big fights” with them about me!

It’s the same as with that other belief of yours…

Wow. I don’t even know what all that is trying to communicate. Honestly I have other things to focus on. I know I’m not the person that you’re talking about. That’s all I can tell you.

You could have worse problems than an admirer that gives your parents money. What a horror story (eyeroll).

I am not that person, though.
