Oh my god... Every time I wonder whether leaving silicon valley was the right choice, another Jasmine Sun piece drops. I don't understand how you stay sane!
I first ran across the word Physiognomy years ago while reading Emerson. I like to think I'm an expert in this practice! Lol! Judging people, taking their inventory, sizing them up, friend or foe.
It is (and always was) embodiment all the way down.
I wrote about this: “We keep pretending language is enough; that if you brute-force enough numbers and letters, intelligence will bloom. But that’s like trying to taste the wind or hear food.
AI can generate a sonnet, but it cannot feel shame. It can solve for heat transfer, but it cannot shiver. It can mimic intimacy, but it cannot fall in love.
Intelligence is more than just computation. It is perception and metabolism and touch and ache and hunger and joy all in one.
It is the humiliation of a first kiss, the dizziness of standing too quickly, the fatigue of carrying grief, the ache in the ribs after delirious laughter, the salt sting of sweat in the eyes, the way hunger hones thoughts and shortens temper.”

This was a great read and so many comedic lines in here! Great work and thanks for doing so much research across all these categories! :)
fascinating
That tizz vs rizz is a joke right? I mean people can't think that Altman/Zuck/Elon have charisma... right?
Lol
