Epistemic Status: Speculative but technically grounded.
The UniversalKnowledgeTensor is a prototype of a Trustworthy Collective Intelligence. The main algorithms have been prototyped. But as a new paradigm I am seeking critical feedback on limitations addressing Civilizational Epistemics and issues with my attempts to explain it.
You have important knowledge that you feel needs to be shared to make the world a better place. This could be about AI alignment, Climate Change, economics or global health. But when you try to communicate by speaking or posting, your message doesn’t seem get through. You may reach a small subset of your audience or we end up talking past each other. But to solve these challenging global... (read 2373 more words →)
Epistemic Status: Speculative but technically grounded.
The UniversalKnowledgeTensor is a prototype of a Trustworthy Collective Intelligence whose core ideas have been exercised in a demo. As a new paradigm, I am seeking external critique—both on why it might fail to transform civilizational epistemics and on how I can more effectively explain and communicate its concepts. Feedback that identifies flaws, blind spots, or barriers to understanding is especially valuable. The framework builds on established methods in probabilistic modeling, cryptographic verification, and multi-dimensional data representation, providing a technically grounded foundation for exploring this novel approach.
You might have valuable knowledge — about AI alignment, climate change, economics, or global health —... (read 2453 more words →)
This is why I keep thinking the real bottleneck isn’t writing quality but attention constraints. Humans have a tiny RAM buffer and effortposts overflows it. There’s world saving information that simply costs too much attention to enter people’s heads.
There is only 2 ways out of this mess:
- increase people's attention ( which seems impossible)
- reducing the attention required to process knowledge ( this requires a different paradigm).

Thank you for taking the time to review my post and comment.
Now that I've written the points above, I study again the "what if" part at the end and say, "oh, so the idea is that human language may not be the best way to transmit knowledge because what gets your attention often isn't what lets you learn easily, cool, then what"
So my core issue ( which resulted in the "Words make us Dumb" Series) is that you cannot just provide a document describing the Alien Language and expect people to appreciate its significance. People must be aware of the significant problems Human Languages cause in terms of Knowledge Routing, Politics, Trust,... (read more)
I appreciate your response. You have to pick a claim and write something critical against it to count for the reward. Can you elaborate which claim is "total nonsense"?
The "Point"lessness of RiskiPedia.
There is a lot of valuable knowledge in RiskiPedia since many of these risks will likely be encountered by many people. Many of these same risks will be encountered by many people such as a visit to the ER, a car accident, a house fire, a bankruptcy etc...
The main problem is that these Risks will not be properly routed to the person whom they effect. For example, Risk X may be of significant concern to me, but if I am not aware of this risk due to my limited Attention Span, I will never query the website to become knowledgeable of it.
Another problem is that Risk is not the... (read more)

This post is the first in a series that examines how the use of human languages for communication of knowledge results in suboptimal thinking. The initial set of topics of this series are listed below:
I think the bigger problem is that A.I. Alarmism is being drowned out by other forms of Alarmism(of which there are many). This topic can be summarized to a few key numbers:
While I do not have the expertise on this, there are many people who do have this knowledge. But it is important to keep in mind that whether A.I. Alarmism is justified or not depends on these numbers. Also as a policy maker, there are many other issues (some are emperically severe) that may outweigh this issue and thus require their finite attention span.
