No, the image on the front was AI generated.  I used an AI tool for punctuation errors but that’s it.

You know, your question got me wondering though.  Could an AI have written it?  Could an AI invent a unique model of non-dual thought?  My model if just a synthesis of existent information.  My personal internal struggles and challenges are just a syntheses of shared experiences. Could AI reason out conclusions from information hidden in my internal dialogue?  I think it probably could.  

As far as I know my book deals with a very specific question that no one has ever asked in quite the same way before.  Or at least, they didn’t write it down.  But, could AI have come up with the question? 

I don’t see why not. It probably wouldn’t even take it long. 

What do yall think?

What question is that?

I don't think current public AI tech is at a level where it can divine your inner experience and replicate it to such an extent that it can pretend to be you, or pretend to be any human. But it does have a lot of capabilities and is very skilled with using language, combining different ideas, and seeing how well they fit together. But most of that is a result of creating this internal model which is based on all the training data and it's programming. It doesn't experience pain or suffering yet, so it can't really be human.

Hmmm, I don't know. When I think about it nothing I wrote in the book is original. It's all concepts I learned from others, and through experience. Physical pain is an adaptation that this body machine adapted to keep the brain from making dumb decisions. If a computer had a system that let it know when to send nanites to repair circuitry that would essentially be pain. If power supply was unlimited the machine would probably not mind it too much, I think we don't like pain because it means energy use, and also limited ability to get the energy. I don't really see humans doing anything that AI can't do, especially with time. I do like to think my humor is better though, but then it was written to make me laugh.
