why

putting words to concepts makes it much easier to operate on them collectively and often individually. there are a lot of concepts we don’t have words for. process for generating words: cgpt-4 has a pretty good handle on etymology, so prompts like create a word whose etymology stems from all+humans+one work well.

some existing glossaries

words

anthruni/omnianthropunus - humanity as one organism. usage: i cannot wait for omnianthropunus to figure out a theory of everything for physics! distinct from the singularity in that it does not need to be totalizing or tied to technological development, just a view of humanity as a collective consciousness.

spatiotemporal computing/thought - instead of or in combination with traditional full res visual/internal monologue thinking, thinking by movement of concepts located in space (ie visualizing a transform, or the shifting of crystals to minimize entropy in some way when trying to solve a physics problem). Distinct from visual thinking in that the concepts are known but not rendered fully, and computation is done explicitly by transforms

nexus - as the space where the most possibilities are reachable (over time, or space, or another qualifier) - ie the most “general” agent, or the least symmetry-broken state, the most efficient state generator. most things only get close. optimally versatile.
