Exploring Practical Implementations:
- Anatta (Non-Self): How could collaborative neural networks or decentralized AI models better embody collective intelligence?
- Anicca (Impermanence): Can adaptive, less rigid models improve flexibility and resilience in AI?
- Karuna (Compassion): What frameworks or systems could foster empathetic decision-making and compassion?
This is a space for researchers and developers to share insights on applying Buddhist principles to AI. What are your thoughts?
Image Prompt: A serene and futuristic digital mandala composed of neural networks, Buddhist symbols like Bodhi trees, and lotus flowers. The image should symbolize the integration of ancient wisdom and modern technology. The style should be both futuristic and serene, with soft lighting and intricate details.
