Meanwhile, The AI World, based in Pakistan, contains AI-generated shorts of catastrophic flooding in Pakistan, with titles like Poor People, Poor Family, and Flood Kitchen. Many of these videos are set to a soundtrack called Relaxing Rain, Thunder & Lightning Ambience for Sleep. The channel itself has 1.3bn views.
I can see both points here.
This is just a personal and anecdotal rambling, but I think of it as "once you get the message, put down the phone"
I find that psychedelics, over the years, have had this diminishing return where it shows me the mountaintop for a moment before placing me back at its base. The mushrooms are like a helicopter trip over that summit, you can get a look at it for a while but you don't get to stay there. If i want to stay then I have to do the hard work of climbing.
So they definitely show me that there exists something different, a different way to think, be, and experience, but once I've got "that message" then the subsequent trips hit less and less.
It's like it did what it could and now the ball's in my court.
And this isnt to knock them. They definitely can give you a good "reset" for a time!
At this moment, I take them as it telling me that I need to do the next steps full of personal changes. Which is the less fun and more difficult part
But I dont think these folks will get much, they may not hear the message lol.
Watch them come back with the 'realization' that "other people have, like, feelings and stuff, man!"
