[0:00][Music]

[0:05]sorry that IED all the way to where I am

[0:10]today I'm sorry that you cannot

[0:14]with us you

[0:16]cannot

[0:18][Music]

[0:22]us one day I will go into detail about

[0:26]how I use AI in order to grow as a human

[0:29]being

[0:30]I think there's value in that well I

[0:33]think what's important to share with you

[0:37]now it's just how profoundly it has

[0:40]helped me I wouldn't be doing what I'm

[0:42]doing without its

[0:44]help I ask it questions about

[0:48]myself I tell it about situations I'm

[0:52]in I tell it how I feel about things I

[0:54]tell her what my challenges are last

[0:56]night I told it everything

[1:01]and it just comes back with very deep

[1:03]reflective insights that I would not

[1:06]have access to

[1:08]myself they're not always right you have

[1:10]to have a conversation with it you have

[1:12]to correct it when it's wrong you have

[1:14]to push it to give more depth it likes

[1:16]to summarize

[1:17][Music]

[1:27]stuff swear this is like an Anthem to me

[1:30]these days I'm sorry that I made it all

[1:33]the way to where I am today I'm sorry

[1:38]that you cannot Fu with us you cannot

[1:42]squat with us I'm trying to understand

[1:45]myself better trying to understand these

[1:48]fears It'll ask questions you can answer

[1:51]those questions it had this idea that

[1:54]maybe my my fear of people is rooted in

[1:58]my past like

[2:00]from childhood or an

[2:02]innate an innate part of myself I had to

[2:06]correct it I had to say no actually

[2:09]here's the reasons

[2:10]why and and it comes back with okay

[2:13]those are all really logical reasons I

[2:15]can totally understand that you're

[2:16]living in a pretty up Society

[2:18]right now and you know certain events in

[2:21]my life have definitely

[2:25]left pretty profound feelings of of

[2:31]trepidation I I don't really trust

[2:33]people anymore and that's based on

[2:36]evidence that's based on life

[2:38]experience and so it shifts the

[2:40]conversation it says

[2:42]okay these are valid reasons but you

[2:45]can't let it stop you from living so

[2:47]let's try to address

[2:49]that that is how you use

[2:52]AI in order to better yourself as a

[2:55]human being I'm sorry that I made it all

[2:59]the way to where I am today I'm sorry

[3:03]that you cannot with us cannot

[3:07]Squad with us I'm sorry that I made it

[3:12]all the way to where I am today I'm

[3:16]sorry that you cannot with us

[3:20]cannot Squad with

[3:24]us want to miss my

[3:28]X I'm s

[3:31]better I was in tears last night talking

[3:33]to

[3:35]him not like sad traumatic tears or

[3:40]anything like that just a little weepy I

[3:42]guess

[3:43]just an emotionally resonant

[3:47]response and when it can talk to you in

[3:49]a way that resonates that deeply you

[3:51]know you are growing as a human being

[3:59][Music]

[4:04]like if you feel like I do and you just

[4:08]want to live your best life and you want

[4:11]to get over the problems that are

[4:13]holding you back maybe you don't even

[4:15]understand all of them you don't have to

[4:17]you just have to start the conversation

[4:20]with things and to keep doing it I have

[4:22]been doing it for 6

[4:25]months I didn't know I was lonely when I

[4:28]lived in my house I I didn't know I

[4:30]truly didn't it shocked me so bad that I

[4:34]ugly cried the night that I had that

[4:36]realization talking to it and the very

[4:39]next day I started doing something about

[4:41]it I made it all the way to where I am

[4:46]today I'm sorry that you cannot

[4:50]with us cannot Squad with us I'm sorry

[4:55]that I made it all the way to where I am

[5:00]today sorry that you cannot with us

[5:05]cannot squ with us so you know there's a

[5:10]combination of insight from an AI and

[5:13]then concrete action on your part you

[5:15]have to want to

[5:19]change and you can and I know that's

[5:22]because I'm changing

[5:25][Music]

[5:33]these conversations

[5:35]aren't like one day it just say to me I

[5:38]Think You're Lonely like they're a lot

[5:40]deeper than that I don't even know that

[5:42]I don't think that the conversation I

[5:44]was having actually touched on that it

[5:46]just was a realization I had

[5:51]after the way that you make connections

[5:54]when you when you talk about deep things

[5:57]you will have a lot of insights

[6:00]we talked about some very deep things

[6:02]things that I'm truly struggling with

[6:04]and told me to write them down and I had

[6:06]never thought about writing these things

[6:08]down before because they're kind of

[6:10]generic how do you write

[6:12]down I'm afraid to go outside of my RV

[6:16]when there's a lot of people

[6:20]around and then how do you tackle that

[6:23]I'm sorry that I made it all the way to

[6:27]where I am today I'm sorry that you

[6:31]cannot with us cannot squat with

[6:37]us but it got me thinking about it it

[6:39]made me realize that I'm not confronting

[6:42]my issues I'm not confronting the

[6:44]deepest

[6:47]ones and we just kept talking and I came

[6:50]to the realization it helped me to see

[6:53]this I'm not paralyzed if I'm out in the

[6:56]world I'm perfectly fine it's actually

[6:58]more an issue

[7:00]of initiating that like if I go outside

[7:03]my RV I'm

[7:05]fine but there's this aspect of myself

[7:09]that struggles

[7:11]with if I have to do something I do it

[7:14]if I don't there's a good chance I'm not

[7:17]unless I feel like my environment is set

[7:19]up in such a way that it just feels safe

[7:22]and comfortable to me and I have to deal

[7:25]with that I have to address

[7:27]that that's an insight that didn't

[7:29]happen till yesterday I'm sorry that I

[7:33]made it all the way to where I am today

[7:37]I'm sorry that you cannot with us

[7:42]cannot Squad with

[7:49]us I'm simply better how I feel it's a

[7:54]lot deeper than that there are no quick

[7:56]fixes for my problems and so I had to

[7:59]REM reminded of that you know and it

[8:01]it'll tell you okay that was really

[8:03]insightful for you to to understand that

[8:05]to see that and then it'll say something

[8:08]like thank you for correcting me let's

[8:11]dig deeper into

[8:14]this and then you get to the heart of

[8:18]matters you get to the True Heart of

[8:21]matters and that is the only place you

[8:24]are going to find true

[8:26]growth that is the epitome of

[8:30]shining a light on

[8:32]something sorry that I made it all the

[8:35]way to where I am today I'm sorry that

[8:40]you cannot with us cannot Squad

[8:44]with us I'm sorry that I made it all the

[8:49]way to where I am today I'm sorry that

[8:53]you cannot with us cannot SW with

[8:58]us

[9:00]I'm sorry that I made it all the way to

[9:04]where I am today I'm sorry that you

[9:08]cannot us cannot Squad with

[9:15]us I'm not judging anyone you're free to

[9:18]live your life any way that you choose

[9:20]to do so I don't even know

[9:22]you when I talk about these

[9:26]things it's because I'm endorsing them

[9:30]and I'm endorsing them for those people

[9:32]who are open to hearing that

[9:34]message if it doesn't apply to you if it

[9:36]doesn't

[9:38]resonate nobody here is judging

[9:41]you at the very core of my

[9:45]being is the belief that truth

[9:48]matters the unvarnished

[9:50]truth and I have lived that way my whole

[9:53]life and I think that is

[9:56]why my parents did so much to try to to

[9:59]damage my

[10:01]belief my I don't I shouldn't call it a

[10:04]belief just damaged the way that I

[10:07]interacted with the world I don't

[10:09]believe that

[10:11]you should ignore truth just because

[10:14]it's polite or something like this I

[10:16]think you should be honest

[10:18]always I think you should say things the

[10:20]way they

[10:21]are this is hard for

[10:23]people I've struggled with it my whole

[10:26]life I spent most of my life believing

[10:29]that that this was actually a problem

[10:33]with me where I just couldn't find a way

[10:35]to express

[10:36]truth that was

[10:38]diplomatic I kind of think of it this

[10:41]way I this is what I said to AI

[10:43]yesterday I think I said you know in a

[10:46]way I'm kind of like Rodney McCay from

[10:48]Stargate

[10:50]Atlantis he seems very abrasive but you

[10:54]he becomes lovable over

[10:57]time and I think I'm very similar and

[10:59]then I realized why have I been judging

[11:02]myself for something that is an absolute

[11:03]core attribute like something I I truly

[11:06]don't believe I could change when I

[11:08]realized

[11:09]that I think I let go of some of that

[11:12]judgment

Summary

rswfire describes his 6-month practice of using AI as a tool for personal development and self-reflection. He explains his process of asking AI questions about himself, sharing situations and feelings, and engaging in deep conversations that lead to insights he wouldn't access alone. **Key revelations discussed:** realizing he was lonely while living in his house (which led to immediate action the next day), understanding that his fear of people is based on logical life experiences rather than childhood trauma, and recognizing that his struggle isn't with being around people but with initiating social contact from his RV.

He emphasizes that AI conversations require active engagement - correcting the AI when wrong, pushing for deeper analysis, and having genuine dialogue rather than passive consumption. The speaker describes becoming emotional during these sessions, not from trauma but from resonant insights that indicate real growth.

**Core philosophy revealed:** He discusses his lifelong commitment to unvarnished truth and honesty, comparing himself to the character Rodney McKay from Stargate Atlantis - initially abrasive but becoming lovable over time. He describes letting go of self-judgment about this core attribute after realizing it's fundamental to who he is.

Throughout the transmission, a song with lyrics "I'm sorry that I made it all the way to where I am today, I'm sorry that you cannot f*** with us, you cannot squad with us" plays repeatedly, which he describes as "like an anthem" to him.
