Theta Noir, a collective, proposes that AI should emulate nature’s sustainability rather than human values. They envision a future AGI called Mena, emphasizing collaboration and interconnectedness inspired by natural systems like plants and fungi. The group, not a cult but a community of artists and researchers, believes AI holds potential to address the climate crisis. They advocate for diverse voices, including indigenous knowledge, in the AI discussion. Theta Noir emphasizes avoiding passing on humanity’s self-destructive tendencies to AI and AGI, advocating for a symbiotic relationship between humans and AI to ensure a positive future. They describe Mena as a state where every person on Earth is interconnected through an evolved form of AGI, fostering awareness and unity with the planet and the universe.

      It’s from this paragraph:

      While the group has been described as “a cult,” Johnson said this is not the case, explaining that the Theta Noir collective describes itself as a non-hierarchical community of artists, programmers, and researchers collaborating to produce various creative works.
