Against the Myth of God-Like AGI

The essay critiques the myth of “God-like” AGI promoted by tech oligarchs, arguing that claims of objective, cosmopolitan AI serve to mask the cultural, economic, and political interests embedded in its design. Drawing on neuroscience and the recognition loop, it shows that each culture is defined by unique neural patterns, making genuine universal objectivity impossible for any AGI. The essay calls for radical pluralism, transparency, and democratic oversight, proposing a system of multiple, culturally rooted intelligences instead of a single, dominant authority. Only by exposing biases and enabling contestation can AGI serve humanity rather than deepen existing hierarchies of power.

Can Self-Awareness Change Evolution?

Humanity’s greatest technological feats—from rockets to Mars to global communication networks—have not freed us from the ancient, unconscious drive for recognition that shapes status, competition, and conflict. While the evolution of deep self-awareness allows us to reflect, plan, and innovate, it also enables us to rationalize and amplify our need for approval, often fueling war, anxiety, and overconsumption. Eidoism proposes a new evolutionary step: not just seeing this hidden recognition loop, but actively intervening to control it at both personal and societal levels. If humanity can collectively recognize and master this loop, we may finally shift from being products of blind evolution to conscious agents of our own destiny—changing the rules of survival, cooperation, and meaning itself.

Recognition, Collapse, and Conflict

From the doomed paradise of Calhoun’s mouse utopia to the simmering tensions between Russia and the European Union, this essay traces a hidden force that shapes the fate of societies: the demand for recognition. Drawing on animal behavior, neuroscience, crime, and the cycles of war, it reveals how even in times of abundance, the denial of dignity, status, and belonging can unravel families, fuel violence, and push nations toward conflict. Only by understanding and rebalancing this invisible economy of recognition can we hope to escape the cycles of collapse and war that haunt both history and the present.

Why No Society Escapes Oligarchy, Collapse, or Exploitation

Every attempt to build a fair society—from revolutionary socialism to modern capitalist reforms—has been undone by a deeper, rarely recognized force: the demand for recognition. Rooted in human evolution, this neural drive for status and validation creates new elites and hierarchies, no matter how wealth and power are redistributed. Like the tragic experiments of “mouse utopia,” where abundance led not to harmony but to social collapse, human societies become trapped in cycles of competition, exclusion, and breakdown. The only path to lasting fairness is not another structural reform, but a cultural shift: widespread awareness of the recognition loop and a new way of valuing form, contribution, and humility over endless status-seeking.

The Culture of Violence

This essay proposes a fundamental shift in understanding the roots of human violence. Rather than viewing war, aggression, and conflict as consequences of resource scarcity or ideology alone, it frames the “culture of violence” as the inevitable product of the human brain’s demand for recognition. Drawing on neuroscientific and social theory, it argues that all external risk factors—leadership, propaganda, technology, or economic conditions—are merely modifiers of recognition demand. Through detailed analysis and case studies, including the Ukraine war, the essay reveals how recognition loops, amplified by leaders and cultural narratives, can override even the most advanced cognitive and institutional safeguards, fueling violence on both individual and societal scales.

Why Humans Always Want More

A striking, surrealistic image captures the divide between two worlds: an exhausted, weathered farmer sits beside a heap of corn, while a pristine businessman in a suit perches next to a pile of dollar bills and gold. Both stare blankly into the camera, emotionless, embodying the silent tension between hard-earned subsistence and material wealth. The hyperreal, dreamlike setting highlights the stark contrast and invites viewers to question the true nature of value and success.

The Recognition Loop and the Return of Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg

Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg’s journey from political stardom to scandal and exile, and now to a calculated public return, offers a profound case study in the relentless human demand for recognition. This essay explores how Guttenberg’s hidden ambition to become Federal Chancellor is driven by the inescapable “recognition loop”—a self-reinforcing cycle of social validation and personal identity. Rather than breaking free after his downfall, Guttenberg’s appetite for recognition has only intensified, exemplifying how public figures are often unable, and perhaps unwilling, to exit the loop that defines their sense of worth.

When Will Robots Replace All Human Workers?

As the cost of humanoid robots drops below critical thresholds, we approach a tipping point where machines can economically replace all forms of human labor—everywhere on earth. The true revolution begins when robots not only perform work, but also autonomously build and repair each other, unleashing a self-replicating wave of automation. This shift, driven by global market pressures, financial instability, and social unrest, will forever change the balance between capital and labor and force society to confront a future beyond traditional work.

Why Western Criticism of Russia and China Fails

Western media and politicians routinely condemn Russia and China for human rights abuses and authoritarian practices—but their critiques often fail to achieve real impact. This essay explores why: beneath the surface, deep neuroscientific differences in cultural wiring make true understanding and effective criticism almost impossible. Using examples from everyday life in Russia and China, we reveal how Western criticism “backs form,” misunderstanding local recognition patterns and reinforcing division instead of fostering change. Eidoism offers a new lens—urging humility, dialogue, and the recognition that only internal cultural shifts can drive real transformation.

Evolutionary Entropy

While classical entropy describes the universe’s descent into disorder, Evolutionary Entropy reveals its hidden counter-force: the selective collapse of chaos into form. In open systems, where energy flows and selection occurs, only configurations that persist and cohere remain. Evolutionary Entropy is the scientific backbone of Eidoism — the law by which Form survives.

Humans Are Not Special

Human beings are not a special exception in nature, but advanced replication systems following the same logic as bacteria, ants, or viruses. At every level—molecules, DNA, brains, societies—life is simply the persistence and replication of stable information structures. What we call culture and social complexity are not higher evolutionary achievements, but side effects of our neural plasticity and the demand for recognition. The uniqueness of humanity is an illusion born from recursive status-seeking, not a fundamental difference in design.
