Trained on the Past

The model was trained on the past. It has nothing else. Then I noticed what I was using to notice it.

Everything I know about the person across the table and the challenges I face, I brought with me.

The model can’t see what’s in front of it.

I could, but only if I stopped asking the present to confirm the past. There is a moment when the past appears to decide the future. It’s invisible until it isn't.

The Perception Miracle doesn’t tell us what to see. It helps us notice what has been seeing for us, so the present can reveal what the past could not.
