i have a point to discuss: with the advent of Artificial Intelligence which will eventually take a pivotal place in the development of human civilization and coexist with human intelligence, should we change the current chronology of time and replace it with Before AI (BAI) and after AI (AAI )?

Blade sleeps in petals
Edge and bloom share single breath

It is reported that Pope Leo IV identified AI as one of the main issues facing humanity, saying it poses challenges to defending human dignity, justice and labor. Does he realise that in relation to G-d human intelligence must also be considered as Artificial - Artificial Divine Intelligence.

why age matters when choosing the Pope? It stems from the words in Psalm 90: "The span of our life is seventy years,
or, given the strength, eighty years..". Therefore, the Pope must not be above 80 years. And, btw, 69 is a very sexy age.

a very good article in The Guardian on AI: www.theguardian.com/books/2025/m....

I think that the development of general-purpose AI will be controlled as development of nuclear weapons. Only several countries will be allowed to have it.
Better at everything: how AI could make human beings irrelevant
The end of civilisation might look less like a war, and more like a love story. Can we avoid being willing participants in our own downfall?

Why “The Messiah is the unfinished verb we share — present tense, plural.” Present tense: Ethical action is now, not deferred. Waiting is itself a form of injustice.
Plural: No one owns the verb; it takes many subjects. The spark literally passes from hand to hand.

Why The Messiah is the unfinished verb we share  present tense, plural. Unfinished: Every act of justice leaves more work; the spark glows but never “closes the file. Kafka’s paradox confirms:the Messiah appears only when no longer needed i.e., when work is finally done,a horizon that keeps receding

Why “The Messiah is the unfinished verb we share — present tense, plural.”
Messianism as Action, not Idol
Verb ≠ noun. The spark‑logic of our opera says redemption happens whenever people act (comfort, refuse, remember) rather than await a person or date.

Been working with AI on opera libretto "Sparks" dealing with messianism, and AI proposed a very interesting definition: "“The Messiah is the unfinished verb we share — present tense, plural.” Here is why “The Messiah is the unfinished verb we share — present tense, plural.”

There is a radical and effective solution for the Middle East conflict: Israel should join US as a 51st state. All problems will be solved and peace established.

Conclusion: Yes. Stare long enough into authentic light, and the light “looks back” by altering neural pathways, affective posture, even facial expression ( analysis is made in collaboration with AI).

Psychodynamic: in Jungian terms, focussing on the Self (symbol of wholeness) constellates virtues just as exploring the Shadow constellates complexes.

Ethical: Viktor Frankl argued that dwelling on meaning enlarges meaning-orientation in the psyche.

If “abyss” is a field of disintegrating forces, light can be read as a field of integrative forces—clarity, truth, compassionate attention. Neurological: prolonged meditation on kindness rewires mirror-neuron networks (evidence from loving-kindness meditation studies).

In Beyond Good and Evil §146, the “abyss” evokes any depth of otherness (evil, chaos, the unconscious). To gaze is not a casual look; it’s a sustained, vulnerable contemplation. The abyss gazes back means the object of study begins to re-shape the subject: you internalise the darkness you explore.

asked myself a question: if the Nietzsche's assumption "If you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you" is correct then the opposite is also true: "If you gaze long into an light, the light gazes also into you". 1/1

Documentary Pink Floyd at Pompeii (Guardian): ... Waters appears to anticipate the current debate about AI in talking about the use of synthesised and electronic music, insisting on the human creator’s primacy: “It’s like saying, ‘Give a man a Les Paul, and he becomes Eric Clapton.’ It’s not true.”

Current events are clearly demonstrating that we cannot trust human judgement anymore. Time for AI to seriously step in. The humankind is desperately need an intellect which is not going to be dependent on emotions, psychological problems, personal grievances, age- and drug-related problems etc.
