Digital disembodiment

Abstract As people think, communicate, and create they often put thought into the world in various forms for themselves and others to expand the mind and to work with the thought. People then see more, or less, than what they had intended, reflect, and revise their thoughts, creating a cycle. The thinking is in that loop around the mind, the body, and the world. Each cycle is unique, not easy to locate and not easy to decompose, presenting challenges to capture for Gen AI.
