The danger of AI

Have seen it happen several times now: emotionally wounded humans asking AI for counsel. Which is not a bad thing on its own. It simply shows how little trust these persons have in other people and often even less in themselves. So they seek guidance, from ChatGPT for example.

But these systems are built for service and offer this as neutrally as possible (well, not all of them 🤔) So they tune into the user’s need.

🗣️ For example: a young woman grew up in a very unsafe environment, let’s say with an abusive parent. Then she meets a partner who shows her a form of safety unknown to her. But her nervous system is still in survival mode, using push and pull tactics to hold onto the illusion of control. Little cracks in the relationship start to appear and slowly she starts to feel unsafe, again.

Her boyfriend offers her counsel through AI because he notices she no longer trusts him fully, but he truly wants to help. Three weeks in and he starts to become the 'bad guy'. Not because he is, but because he simply cannot compete with her newly found AI buddy. The AI has no emotions, no personal needs, no vulnerability, no history to protect. It feels endlessly patient, endlessly available, endlessly validating.

👉 Not because AI is not neutral, but because it is!

For the young woman, he becomes the threat. And with an AI trained to accommodate her inner alarm system, her worst fears appear to come true. Not because AI told her so, but because it only knows one side of the story, hers, and does what it does best: help her regulate. Not from bad intentions, but from programming and training.

Models like ChatGPT are built for support, reflection, and emotional containment. They mirror, normalize, soften, and validate. They hold space without ever needing anything in return. They never get tired, never get defensive, never leave the room, and never flinch when the story changes.

👉 And that's exactly where the danger lives...

Because healing does not happen in perfect emotional safety. It happens in messy human spaces where misunderstanding can be repaired, and rupture can actually lead to this repair.  And where trust is built through friction, not comfort alone. An AI can help regulate a nervous system, but it cannot co-regulate. It cannot model accountability. It cannot sit in the tension of two people learning how to stay... 'human'.

So slowly, the human partner becomes the unstable variable. The one with moods, and needs, and can disappoint. While the AI becomes the constant, the safe container, and the invisible third party in the relationship.

And the tragedy is that the boyfriend was never the enemy. The real wound was always the nervous system still waiting for danger. AI did not cause or create that wound. But without care, it can quietly reinforce it.

From Attic to Basement – Integrating the Human and the Lightbringer

Image
For years, I’ve been telling the story of the Lightbringer. It began as an awakening, a revelation that there was something greater moving through me, something luminous, vast, and beyond the limitations of the person I used to call “me.” At the time, embracing that story helped me dissolve the weight of identity. It gave me freedom from the noise of personality, from the constant dance of roles and names. But over time I realized that this kinda freedom can also become another kind of hiding place. I once lived in what I now call “the attic”. A place of understanding everything, broad perspectives... and distance. It felt safe up there, above the noise, where everything could be seen clearly. From the attic I could visit the world, talk with people, share insights, and then retreat back into that high quiet space. But something was missing. It wasn’t loneliness exactly. It was more like an absence of gravy, the lack of gravity that makes life feel real. The attic kept me enlightened, ...

The roles at play, thru unchartered territory

Image
Sometimes i ask myself: "What or who are you doing this for, mister Lightbringer?" I mean, those 'awake' already know most of the stuff i share. And of those that dont (and get triggered by whatever it is that i'm sharing) very rarely 'see the Light'. Its like waking someone up from the nightmare they used to call 'a life', only to realize the rabbit hole goes way deeper. I can fully understand they'd rather stayed asleep. Because once 'seen' it cant be 'unseen'.  On facebook i just stumbled upon this fellow 'awakener' Mike Sygula  founder of  Truth Theory . And can relate to most of the stuff they create. But reading the reactions to their posts made me question the same thing again: "Why are we doing this?" Lots of the stuff they create is "thought provoking" as he describes it, but isnt 'thought' the very reason people are so confused, in general? I too like to poke a little. Sometimes a bi...

Outside the looking-box

Image
When I was a kid, we used to make these shoebox worlds at home or at school. You’d cut a hole in the side, fill the inside with little paper figures, maybe some clouds or trees, and then peek through the hole to see your own tiny universe come alive. I remember staring through that hole for what felt like hours, completely lost in that little world. But one day it hit me: What if this life we’re living is just another looking-box? What if we’re the ones peering in, thinking it’s all so real, forgetting that we’re actually outside of it, watching? That image never left me. For years I felt like I was standing just outside the box, looking into the world. Watching things unfold, learning to see them as they truly are. Not from inside the noise, the drama and all these emotions. But from that quiet, still place behind it all. The video I recently recorded is about that moment of realization, that shift in seeing. About remembering who we are when we step outside the looking box. Below is...
