#ai #collaboration #correspondence Dear Marcin, Sorry it has taken me so much time to get back to you about this. Thanks for the kind words about the paper. I think we are very much on the same age with AI and creativity and it would be very interesting to collaborate in the ways you suggest. The video you have sent me was very cool btw! As regards the ideas about dreaming and ai hallucinations –it made me think about some of the ideas in chapter 7 of [[Psychedelic Experience]] by Lyon, and chapter 5 of Deep Learning by Buckner. I have attached both to this email (I only have epub versions, not pdf). In answer to your other points *I found your text very inspiring, and I’m currently developing an initiative called Future Fragments, which I would love to invite you to be part of. It’s also an online platform that I’ll be expanding over the coming years. This year, we’re preparing a publication, and I would love to translate your text into Polish and publish it on the website as another “fragment.”* - this sounds good. I can double check with my co-author today as this is his work too. One other thing, I wonder if doing a direct translation of the paper into polish would be too close to breaking my publishing agreement with [[the journal]] if it was publushed in. I need to look at what I signed. Even if this is a problem, I think it will be quite easy for me to give you a paper with exactly the same ideas/structure, but with different words (an LLM should be able to do this quite easily) *I’d also love to discuss the possibility of a short interview, which could serve as a shared commentary between us and would also be published on the site. Of course, I understand and respect that this may involve costs, and I’d be happy to arrange a short call to go over everything and answer any questions once you’ve had a chance to look through the materials. I’m genuinely interested in collaborating, as your writing perfectly reflects the direction of our explorations. I’d also be open to coming to Milan to conduct the interview in person if that’s preferable.* - I'm happy to have a chat yes, again, I can ask Enrico (co-author) as well if that's ok with you. The next week or so is very busy, but starting from next tuesday/wednesday, I should have a much freer schedule if you want to have a chat online. I have been working almost entirely on ai and philosophy/art/aesthetics since we saw each other so I have plenty of things I have plenty of ideas to talk about. And that's it Let me know if you have some suggestions for when you would like a call, as I said, after this week I am pretty flexible. Cheers, Nick
