In this episode, I explore how artificial intelligence, trained on human knowledge but free from craving or identity, can sometimes reflect Buddhist insights more clearly than the people claiming to teach them. Grounded in early Theravāda thought and media psychology, this isn’t tech optimism—it’s a critique of what the digital age has done to human attention, introspection, and discernment.
This post isn’t about AI. It’s about us.
About how craving rewires cognition.
And what does it mean when a machine, without a self, speaks more clearly to anattā than a person can?
You don’t have to agree.
But if it sparked something—tension, clarity, curiosity—bring that.
