Ezra Klein

The problem with this theory is there's a lot of trivial stuff that somehow gets through, at least in my case.

I think there's a lot of traffic going back and forth.

And that's something also that you happen, not just during meditation, but during psychedelic experiences.

There's lots of unconscious material that comes up.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So there's a meditation teacher I really like whose meditations are on YouTube named Michael Taft.

And his attitude is like, look, the machinery of the mind is gonna go on, but just put it down the way you'd put down your phone.

And just...

You know, let it do its thing.

You can just ignore it.

And I find that very helpful.

And I have this sense of a little buzzing going on in this corner, you know, of like thoughts that I'm not paying attention to.

But, you know, as Kalina shows, it's very hard to control this material and things are going to bubble up and they're interesting.

Productivity ideas.

You're thinking about it in terms of an algorithm and a massive data and different things could get pulled into it.

That's not a bad metaphor.

We don't know exactly how it works.

There is still this question of if the workspace idea is true, everything we think should be of some consequence.

And we all know that's not true.
