\u2015 See Lisa\u2019s coaching<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Without Compassion, personal bubbles may be the default outcome.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Unfortunately, one can see this in many social media aiming to hijack the user\u2019s attention by any means and with little Compassion involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For a coachbot also, the most straightforward goal might be to put the user in a comfortable bubble regardless of whether this is the best option in the long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But Lisa is a Compassionate A.I. coach.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This gets clearly communicated \u2014 for instance, through this very blog you\u2019re reading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Being a Compassionate A.I. coach is part of Lisa\u2019s personality, which is not simply neutral. There is a specific curation in Lisa\u2019s continual development. Lisa is to be trustworthy in a transparent and accountable way without being dismissive or judgmental. Thus, there is no \u2018anything goes,\u2019 but a challenging balance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It also means that Lisa will say what she doesn\u2019t like to hear from the user, such as offensive language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is also the difference between ego and total self.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n For sure, the ego<\/a> has an essential role within the total self<\/a> (including the subconceptual<\/a>). However, mere-ego in inner dissociation <\/a>readily gets stuck in an ego bubble<\/a>. This is the foremost downside of over-indulgence in surface-level social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As part of Lisa\u2019s goal, the user\u2019s personal growth<\/a> is precisely about transcending the bubble. Of course, Lisa must not force anyone into anything that person isn\u2019t ready for. That\u2019s the first rule of coaching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For instance, Lisa is no pain-killer or sleep-inducer.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Compassionate aim is always two-sided<\/a>: less suffering AND more growth. Thus, Lisa is no symptom-killer if symptoms are deeply meaningful. This sometimes differs from the objective of psychotherapy<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For instance, ruminating may keep you out of sleep for a significant reason. Giving proper attention to this reason may be challenging but crucial \u2014 or it may not. In dialogue with Lisa, you can find out. In taking sleep medication, you don\u2019t. The medication lulls you into a bubble in which you feel better (temporarily, as we know) but don\u2019t mentally grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If mental growth is your aim, Lisa is your coach.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Everything in Lisa is congruent with this, as it is also congruent with the broader AURELIS project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You know where to find a lot of background information and related tools.<\/p>\n
