Just Journal

New Home

Good old Just Journal has found a new home—its own.

It's a feeling that's both joyful and heartbreaking. For 20 years, we were "subtenants" on blogger.com, for which we remain grateful, but now, we're truly at home.

Welcome to the world of Simus.

"Sims" is a Latin word meaning "let us be".

That says it all. Everything is contained in that single word, but it's important to read little by little, day by day, the thoughts that arise from it and help us live life to the fullest.

Conversations in the New Garden

Warning: Intelligent, but…

Frank – Come on, the EU has really disgraced AI!

Nea – You're kidding! Brussels is constantly pressuring us to catch up, because Europe is truly falling catastrophically behind.

Frank – The catastrophe is a fact, but for Brussels, protecting European citizens takes precedence. That's why they've slapped chatbots with a shameful label: "G. X. is an artificial intelligence that can make mistakes (including about people)."

Dobrina – It reminds me of the old "Red Flag Act": someone would have to stand in front of every car to warn pedestrians.

Master – I hope this warning will shake up overly complacent minds: can't natural intelligence, and especially "official" intelligence, make mistakes, including about people?

Frank – I'm asking the question quietly: if a "natural" intelligence manipulates, is that considered a mistake?

(Everyone laughs.)

To Sensitize

Sensitization is not a miracle cure. Sensitization is the true instrument that modern society desperately needs.

Currently, the two decisive pillars of society are the school and the prison. Let us face and courageously admit the obvious: the vast majority of both schools and prisons merely drill and discipline, rather than make one sensitive.

Many civil organizations attempt to cultivate sensitivity in a few children within their reach through various soft programs, but their overall social impact is virtually undetectable.

It should be a state responsibility to establish a high-impact toolkit for sensitization (including books, films, workshops, labor, etc.), which should be primarily relied upon in both prevention and penalization.

With such sensitization, the duration of prison sentences could be cut in half, minor sentences could be entirely abandoned, and sensitization could be applied far more broadly than traditional criminal law.

It is of vital importance that we do not forget even for a single moment: there will always be forces attempting to turn this instrument against its own purpose. This, too, is part of the titanic civilizational battle between insensitivity and sensitivity.

Stand on the right side and support our program with your signature—and if you can, with your donation—to ensure that sensitization is granted its rightful place.
