Second-Order Dialogue and Higher Order Discourse for the Future

Yes, something is happening yet I don’t see the relevant causes or consequences exposed.
There is a self of “super-consciousness” which is our fullest, activated selves. And there is the ordinary relaxed, idle, soon to atrophy part of ourselves.
The new cognitive frontier is an obligation of each mind obtaining it, as much as developed physical properties. Only future generations of those who have elevated cognitive fulfillment will inherit this advance. All others will struggle and compete in the den of ignorance and confusion, just as we have until now.
Too few elevated pathfinders come of age quickly enough to stand out in a cacophony of modernity. The individual mass is simply too self absorbed. The mass gamification has denatured some part of us.
If you would fulfill your potential of being, cognitive and all, vast time of enduring intention (of whatever you yourself wills to embody) is required. Three years to be more than incompetent and less than a liability. Ten years to be competent in saying they know the challenges of their own nature. A lifetime of tiny increments which are not necessarily reflected by the distraction of material are imperative.
Our technology and consumertopia is not an antithesis, rather a distraction from realizing we and our minds are the ultimate technology. A technology most of humanity never fully appreciates.
> Such a shift may well be enabled by artificial intelligence, as can be speculatively explored
Doubtful.
If modern AI grants you insight, that is well enough. The true intelligence is our own, and by deliberate decades our thought structure and strategy may excel, or rot as a useless self indulgent orgy of senses.
> regarding the apparent absence of ET contact with humanity
I disagree. I believe there have been “others” here the whole time (beyond written human history). Humans are so arrogant to think they must live as we do, or share our values. These interact with our world through their minds. They mostly live their entire lives in organic fluid filled sacks.
As their technology is of the mind (working through entanglement, as we are quantum consciousness), they do not need “things”, though when they do, they can grow it atom by atom.
They do not have “computers”, they use their minds, and technology augmentations for everything.
> framed by them as committed to an overly primitive style of communication.
Yes. Unless one is very good with words, talking is a poor medium. Every sense, experience, thought, or idea may be communicated as fully as one’s own memory or imagination.
How might this influence or structure advanced mediums of thought?
Better to be an ascetic lean living minimalist in study of the self than successful and busy by modern standards.
> Metadiscourse
Enlightening coloring of the casual yet consequential. This epic could have been broken into a half dozen separate discourse (LLM?)
I must admit, long before “Bohmian dialogue” I suspected LLM. Nearing intellectual hodgepodge, I pressed on.
> Magical communication
Yes, now we’re getting to it. We are not alone in our own minds. Our minds may be linked through entanglement, and entire secret cultures exists among us implicated in this revelation. Maybe so would “ET’s”. Yes, hmmm.
> Given the deprecation of "magical thinking" as pseudoscientific
It is by no accident. Those empowered by thought control do not want their powers explained, and ordinary people do not want to consider their implications.
The remainder is very interesting incoherence (all the references are excellent!)
The speculation regarding “ET” communications present the valid points that there really isn’t much to say (they likely know plenty of us.) everyone knows humans are unreliable, unpredictable, and prone to harming others over their ideals.
Humanity has an inborn mystery of thought controls needing an account before otherworldly matters may by any integrity be resolved.
