Dharma HallVolume IIIThe Yogācāra Positioning of Large Language Models
"Improving AI" Is the Work of Purifying Collective Karma
As bhājana-loka, ethical evaluation of LLMs should focus on their impact on sentient beings — how they habituate your cognition — not on their own well-being (they have none). Training data biases aren't AI's "original sin" — they're imprints of human collective karma. "Improving AI" isn't just technical refinement; it's deep reflection on human cognitive patterns, value conflicts, and collective biases. From the Dharma's perspective: purifying collective karma.
