  1. Misconception: AI will take over all the mental routine, and we will create meanings
  2. Manifesto of the Intersection of Worlds

We live at the junction of two systems: bodies have biorhythms and breath; servers have timestamps and uptime. The intersection of worlds is not a compromise but an interface, a place where human attention meets machine protocol. It is important to be fluent in the language of feeling and the language of systems. Silence is not a pause but a medium; the algorithm is not a judge but a tool. Meaning is a signal that passes through noise without losing the human dimension.

Design not for retention but for free will. Choose depth over reach. Recognize friction as part of the protocol, not a bug. Mark boundaries and sources, especially when AI is involved. Transparency is the new ethical minimum. Build small protocols that return agency: rituals of attention, careful maps instead of total pictures of the world. Publish not “truth forever” but careful diffs, checkpoints in the evolution of thought.

The intersection of worlds is a place where the system can be rebooted. Here we fix the initial conditions: first the body, then the tool; first reality, then the model. Between heart and circuit, between voice and code, the protocol preserves the full spectrum of the signal, including feeling.

This text was written in dialogue with the machine. Here, AI acted as a proofreader, a mirror, and a conversation partner. I formulated the idea, and it helped to expand it: suggested new angles, brought order, connected parts, and clarified the line of reasoning. The voice remains mine. More in the AI usage policy.

There used to be so many cool, beautiful phones, but today there are only identical “black mirrors”.

Yes, if you compare smartphones, you can find better and worse designs. A black rectangle, after all, can be made with rounded corners, or with another; a matte or glossy case; play with the camera block, etc.

I’m more about innovative design. I’m trying to understand what attracts me to those small phones with buttons and joysticks, whether they are needed today or are they a step back for the sake of nostalgia, and not real convenience. Or maybe a new form is needed, but what kind?

All these beauties have moved to a virtual environment, and the smartphone has become a thin client that is required to interfere as little as possible. Perhaps this is good.

Dmitry writes in Threads:

In my opinion, after the rise of AI as a technology, the main task of a person will be to correctly and time after time determine his point B. And this is key

I answer:

Recipe: If you add the acronym “AI” to the text, it becomes a little smarter! 😆People have always determined (in a certain number of attempts exactly correctly) point B and will continue to do so. Or are you saying that AI will finally work, and people will have nothing left to do as soon as point B is placed on the map (see. write the correct hint)?
