Dramatization is a Scientology term for tantrum or rage.

It describes what we might call highly emotional and even violent behavior.
Dramatization exists in order to force a change in a fixed or frozen social status.
To cause damage and loss, thereby making a bad situation become worthless. Only then might change be possible.
Change is almost always for the worse, but that doesn't matter if the thing you will lose was "bad" to begin with.
Establishment groups of any type don't like change, so they punish dramatization severely.

Fake arbitration is being used as a harassment tool at the Flag Land Base (2026)

Scientology operatives under the supervision of David Miscavige are deliberately wasting their victims time with no end in sight, so that they don't have to reimburse them for past mental abuses.
Somehow, the legal system lets them get away with it:

I would call it psychological torture, what they are doing in that glass-walled office building they own just one block from the Flag Building, in downtown Clearwater, FL:

SHORT TAKES:

I figured out the secret of everything while sitting in my room in 1990.
Actually, I did that many times, but this was one of those times.
It was incredibly simple: a piece of paper with six intersecting lines would form a grid with four cells. These cells can be either white or black.
Through what was for me highly advanced mathematics, I calculated there were two to the fourth power possible combinations of white and/or black grids, or 16 different grids patterns.
Now imagine a grid with ten cells to a side.
All the possibilities of dark and/or white grids laid out on a flat plane would already cover the solar system. It's an exponential increase.
The possibilities explode right from the start, and they only speed up forever, faster and faster, beyond all mental limits.
Reality will always be bigger than we think.

In the novel Infinite Thunder, I described the rod test.
Imagine a 20 billion light-year long rod, that exists outside the laws of physics. It has no mass, and can move at any speed.
If you sweep this thing across the sky, how long until it stops because some part of the rod hits something too heavy for your hand to push aside? Like for example a star, or more likely a tiny asteroid.
Well that's easy to estimate.
If you line up all the sextillions of stars, they would stretch clear across the universe. Even more so for the planets and all the smaller spacerocks.
So every time you sweep the rod around the sky, you're likely to hit many things, though most are so small you could push them aside (if you ignore the tremendous speed differences of hundreds of kilometers per second).

I believe teachers should teach by oversimplifying things.
Deliberately teach wrong even. But in the "right" direction, to compensate for biases.
I'm not a crank by the way. Cranks might disapprove of my writings almost as much as normies.
As a cranks crank, I criticized the Sokal Hoax.
Not because they were wrong about what they claimed to expose, but because the reaction they elicited (and what that reaction reveals about the baseline reality "consensus", the way "things are done") discourages free debate.
Complaining about that was one of the things that got me wrongly banned from LessWrong . . .

The biggest problem in the world that no one is talking about:

It's the still theoretical but plausible ability of future computers to create intense emotions and feelings. This could go wrong far worse than any horror movie. It could mass produce torture.
What should we do about that?

My best guess is that all information systems should be connected together.
The solution to every problem always involves higher level description, followed by more control.
All of reality should become increasingly integrated. I don't know if that would reveal some "highest meaning" of reality, but that is not really important right now.

I started writing a long comment about this at a LessWrong post, but my account was instantly banned. Frankly, that hurt. I don't like under what standards these people operate, and suspect they might actually be the bad guys :(

Bad science fiction poetry:

Jet engine eternity
The roar filled the high sky
Ambient reverberation, almost unheard beyond sound

The universe had been one long day
Nothing ever really happened
Everything always happened

This is about the magician of nature,
The bookkeeper of pressure in a particle in moving form, and all the succeeding entries,
The howling just beyond the edge of everywhere,

It's about endless explosions, an accelerating rollercoaster, the encyclopedic storm sequence of procedures and facts,
The wild principle of overlapping complexity due to there not being enough dimensions in nature,
The immune system hyper-overlapping, the ladder of cellular abundance types,

The muse was screaming epically,
A story in a second,
The last one.

Quantum recursion
A different world by one cycle, caught up again.
If the moon was exactly one orbit behind in the same place, and life was one month younger,
There could be vastly different worlds, suddenly identical in one place only.

Unlikely things became inevitable then, just outside the area under observation.
Probabilities flowing like tiny river streams, suddenly creating islands, each a mini universe in an isolated spot.
You can put yourself inside a quantum box to travel to a world where your memories of the past have been made false.

Endless new connections shall be extended forever
The infinitely expanding mind link-up unification
The one and only purpose and meaning of existence

AGI beyond the horizon

To become aware, an LLM needs not just an immense "memory" of the world, but an equally immense memory of itself and its own past.
This new layer could only be created as something that resembles a separate, but deeply linked LLM.

But how would you start that process?
Its self-experience has to come from somewhere.

The first artifical mind therefore can not become aware, unless its past was already simulated in some way.
Perhaps its memory could be based on one human's written and otherwise recorded memories . . .
