And this is what's real.
So ultimately love is not, is neither in last language models, nor in something mystical.
It's exactly in this moments of passion.
And I would, I would,
I would even go as far as saying that in this moment when you're describing it, there was a connection of sorts so that I could feel your passion for it.
And in this moment, something else comes up, which is far beyond any theories that we can come up with.
And that's what we, for now, exactly.
So on the one side, there is this impulse
of finding a theory, and then there is another impulse to escape from what has already been known.
In other words, like in my basic example is one impulse to say everything is a real number, square root of negative one doesn't exist, but another impulse is I'm going to be this naughty child who is not afraid to be an idiot, and I will say square root of negative 15 is real.
And both are essential.
when it's done with conviction, when it's done with passion, when it's not like, you know, meh, you know, gratuitous, or when it's not, it doesn't come from self-limiting, but comes from this sense of
This is how I am.
This is how I feel.
It is real.
That's where the progress is.
That's where creativity is.
And that's where I would even say a real connection is.
Because the strife to me that I observe today in our society and the society level and the level of humans and so on, it comes from not seeing the other person actually and being caught up in a very specific conceptual bubble, you see.
And the way out of it is not to refine the bubble.
