The Human Crisis Is Earth’s Crisis

XperientialAI ·

2025/06/12

Greg Twemlow explores the profound connection between the "human crisis" and the "Earth's crisis," arguing that human indifference is the root cause of planetary degradation. Twemlow introduces concepts like Viriditas, the regenerative force of nature, and Kairos, opportune moments for change, framing them against historical warnings from figures like Albert Camus, who in 1946 foresaw humanity's indifference to violence extending to nature itself. The article then highlights the "machinery of

Constitutional Frameworks Must Govern the Rise of...

XperientialAI ·

2025/06/10

Greg Twemlow argues for the urgent need for a constitutional framework to govern the rise of autonomous AI agents, termed "Agentic AI." It posits that this new form of power, unlike atomic or digital power, rewrites reality by delegating decision-making to synthetic entities, which can recursively improve and operate faster than human governance. The author proposes MAARR (Memorandum of Agentic AI Rights and Responsibilities) as a constitution for the age of agentic intelligence, outlining

Rise of the Conversational Operating System

2025/06/08

Greg Twemlow discusses the evolution of computing interfaces, moving from early, simple terminals to a future dominated by conversational operating systems powered by AI. The author argues this shift signals the "death of apps" as we know them, replaced by an AI layer that understands user intentions expressed through natural language. The true value in this new paradigm, according to the author, lies in the human ability to act as a "Problem Definition Architect©," clearly and ethically framing

The Fork is a Choice that Shapes Your Future With AI

2025/06/07

This piece by Greg Twemlow explores the crucial choice users face when engaging with AI, framing it as a "fork" in the road between two distinct paths. One path, the Automation Path, focuses on productivity and efficiency but can lead to reduced cognitive effort and a loss of discernment. The other, the Sovereignty Path, is more demanding but fosters authored identity, ethical clarity, and deeper thinking by engaging with AI as a partner rather than just a tool. The article argues that conventional

When Contemporary Society Stops Thinking

XperientialAI ·

2025/06/06

Greg Twemlow's article argues that contemporary society's decline in deep reading is negatively impacting critical thinking and democratic discourse. Drawing on the work of Eric Levitz, Walter Ong, and Maryanne Wolf, the author suggests that digital media encourages shallow consumption and moves society towards a "second oral age" where immediate responses and tribal thinking are prioritised over reasoned argument and abstract thought. The author also proposes that restoring a relationship with

2025/06/04

This article by Greg Twemlow argues that young people are experiencing a decline in reading engagement and ability, which is more than just a test score issue; it represents a "silent famine" of the mind. The piece contends that digital devices are reprogramming attention and leading to a preference for consumption over deep engagement, causing a loss of belief in reading's value. Twemlow highlights that this literacy crisis is a human rights failure because it hinders independent thought and

Skills Symmetries Part 3 - Patterns That Remember Us

XperientialAI ·

2025/06/04

This piece, the third part in a trilogy by Greg Twemlow, examines the concept of Skills Symmetries, which are not simply workplace abilities but rather deep-seated, conserved behavioural patterns mirroring universal structures. The author uses the oloid shape as a metaphor to illustrate how skills evolve through recursive interaction rather than linear progression, highlighting the idea that complexity can be harmonious. He argues that AI serves as a mirror, allowing us to better perceive these

Greg Twemlow introduces Skills Symmetries©, a concept inspired by physics that views high-performance behaviours as underlying, conserved patterns. He proposes this framework to capture and transfer expertise, using the geometric Oloid as a metaphor for how system parts interact. Twemlow argues that society has wrongly prioritised efficiency over meaningful learning and intelligence. He suggests that disciplines like mathematics, art, and philosophy are not separate but facets of a shared,

2025/05/31

Greg Twemlow's article explores the profound impact of Agentic AI on the professional world, suggesting it is incinerating traditional career paths and requiring individuals to author their own relevance. It highlights the story of Layla, who lost her job to an AI agent, as a prototype for a broader societal shift into a "collapse zone." The piece argues that wisdom and discernment, rather than accumulated knowledge or credentials, are the new valuable currencies, empowering individuals to navigate

2025/05/30

This text, authored by Greg Twemlow, argues that the traditional markers of career success, such as academic credentials and accumulated knowledge, are rapidly becoming obsolete due to the rise of Agentic AI. The author uses a hypothetical example, Layla, to illustrate how a position requiring years of preparation can be replaced by an AI agent in a matter of hours, highlighting the shift from knowledge as a moat to a focus on wisdom and discernment. Twemlow posits that individuals must become

2025/05/28

Greg Twemlow presents an author's reflection on his creative process by contrasting it with that of the renowned music producer, Rick Rubin. The author posits that while Rubin's approach embodies a receptive, intuitive "vessel," his is a structured, interactive "interface," particularly engaging with artificial intelligence. Despite these differing methodologies—one rooted in stillness, the other in cognitive friction and dialogue—the author contends that both attempt to answer the fundamental

Breakout Autonomy and the Custom Context CV

2025/05/26

Greg Twemlow's concept of the Trilogy of Intelligent Sovereignty is analysed, arguing that for AI to be truly useful and personalised, individuals must first define themselves through a Custom Context CV (C³). The author posits that this C³ acts as a critical layer enabling AI to understand and collaborate with a user's unique values, thinking style, and goals, moving beyond mere automation. He references a study indicating that personalised AI significantly outperforms non-personalised AI and even

In an excerpt from his forthcoming book, Greg Twemlow discusses the importance of individual discernment and self-authorship in the age of artificial intelligence. He draws parallels between the insights of Carl Jung, Joseph Campbell, and Steve Jobs, viewing Jobs as a philosopher of lived experience who embodied the principles of inner exploration and resilience. Twemlow argues that as AI learns from and amplifies human behaviour, the crucial question becomes whether humanity is prepared to be

Greg Twemlow's article introduces a concept called the AI-MCP-Powered Network as a revolutionary digital paradigm to overcome the frustrations of the current "application swamp," which is characterised by numerous disconnected software programs. The proposed solution involves Artificial Intelligence acting as the operating system, using a Model Context Protocol (MCP) as a "universal language" to communicate with and orchestrate the functionalities of different software systems. This approach aims to

Greg Twemlow's article "CEO’s Field Guide to AI-Powered Corporate Growth," presents AI as a transformative force posing both significant threats and opportunities for organisations in 2025. The author argues that many companies are failing to realise AI's true potential by treating it superficially, a state he terms "Drift." Instead, organisations must learn to "think with" AI, progressing through a "Six-D Spiral" to reach "Discernment," the stage of deep, strategic engagement. A fundamental step in

Greg Twemlow's article, The Discernment Cycle, introduces a structured, repeatable process for maintaining ethical integrity in system design beyond the initial launch. It highlights the danger of viewing a system as "done" from an ethical standpoint and advocates for a framework of Designing for Return, where intentional reflection and revision are built into the development lifecycle. The author defines five key phases of this cycle – Intention, Design & Dialogue, Action & Release,
