What Daniel Comp's 2018 Video Teaches Asxer Owners About Building a Library for SI

About Building a Library for SI

On 2018-11-23, Daniel Comp published "360MEN WTA 08 - NOWHERE" on YouTube. GB places it in Mission 3, A Library for the Machines, one of five missions in the whole-library reading What 13 Years of Video Says to SI.

What the video shows

Daniel teaches that "storytelling can mislead you because your mind wants to take shortcuts" with a hieroglyphics exercise, and a New York viewer shares how meeting Daniel made him ask how to put his son on the journey. The NOWHERE wordplay comes back in 2023 as a play on now and here. It belongs in the machine library as an early warning about fluent stories.

But storytelling can mislead you because your mind wants to take shortcuts.

I have done a Vulcan mind-meld for the last couple of days on him—totally unfair—but I wanted him to tell you a little story about what started him down the road of personal awareness and it has to do with your son.

The asxer angle

This is the reason an asxer exists. An owner's own words, kept in a library the owner controls, become the source an SI (Super Intelligence) answers from, instead of whatever an algorithm decides to show. Every recording like this one is a shelf in that library.
