Model Zero: Why You Are Obsolete at Almost Every Level and Live Largely in Fiction

What is real? You are inclined to drift deeper and deeper into fictional thinking and obsolesence. You keep constructing and sticking with increasingly obsolete ideas about the world, even though many of them were rather fictional to begin with. Model Zero shows how these forces emerge. Some very basic operating principles of your mind, mental models and language pull you towards fiction. The way you interact with the world through mediating structures, ranging from electronic devices to words and mental models, creates an inertial force which leads you away from your goals. By understanding and acknowledging these forces, you can fight them and evolve towards a mentally and physically greater being, in a very different world. Model Zero is your starting point for surviving in the world that is changing in an exponentially accelerating pace.
