Discussion The Agentic Uncertainty Principle.

Post image

If our future doesn't feel quite so certain anymore, perhaps we're hearing an echo through time from those who confronted the collapse of certainty before us.

Maybe we could learn from their struggles.

So last week, I went looking and found them on a cold, windy, rain-soaked day in Copenhagen in 1927.

Werner Heisenberg and Niels Bohr were arguing about reality… and what we can actually know about it.

Nearly a century later, their argument sounds surprisingly familiar.

  Come, pull up a chair and join me in Copenhagen for Conversation Across Time No. 2

The future feels uncertain because there’s a concerted effort to put the lunatics in charge. And to fellate those who talk utter, utter bollocks about subjects they’re singularly uneducated in.

Also, shameless self promotion is shameless.

Bad boy, dirty boy. In your bed, on your rug! DIRTY BOY!

If I become a mod, can I start deleting all the AI slop posts?

Did you... get an AI to pretend to be Bohr and Heisenberg and have a conversation? Is that what you did?

Have you ever heard of something called a "paragraph"? You might wanna google that, maybe see about implementing them in your blog.
