You people take stories so seriously. The good stories that all the good people believe. The bad stories that only bad people believe.

You realize that they’re just stories, right?

Experience is real.

Start a shroom church. Create wizards. Lots of wizards.

Don’t forget to reserve a bit to fund all the bribes, lobbying and legal representation that protecting your housing development will require. 300b is a tasty target.

Take over the world. Run it properly.

Speaking as a professional carpenter with a pretty nice lifestyle, 25 hours a week is pushing it. You guys work too much.

Ha ha, yes. But seriously. Reality is like a squirrel wrapped in a sock stuck in a mitten enclosed in a shoebox wrapped in carpet wrapped in tinfoil. We look at the tinfoil and say “reality”. It is and it isnt.

Meditation is good for penetrating the layers. Even the squirrel isn’t ultimate

What if I told you that the whole universe is made from this kind of semiconscious misreading?

Either 3d print or teddy bear style, I figure.

That’s 2 good niches

Will do. Thanks

People willing to part with $100 to $1000 for a pretty object.

That’s a good idea.

There’s an algorithm that can build a 3d model from multiple 2d images.

Everybody wants a statue of their cat or head.

I guess I’m assuming the world of computers and computery stuff here. I really don’t want to obsess over a painting or whatever. So less art and more craft I guess.

If you’re trying to sell art, it’s pretty fucking literal. Jesus!

I’m gonna sell bespoke gender surgery. Every person a gender of 1, with exquisite Custom-Made genitalia incompatible with literally anything. You’d like it.

Are you high?

We’re just trying to sell art here. Save the philosophy.

Yes, commercial art. What sells? And, because nobody wants to spend his time selling bananas to monkeys, what’s appreciated?

Me too. There are some amazing knitting machines now.

3d printed? Knit? Handmade plushy?

This is a definite application for those new AIs.

But how to train it?

The sales numbers are a pretty objective measure, actually.
