The High Priest’s Breastplate: An Ancient Holographic Quantum Computer?

An elderly mage with a white beard controls glowing magical and quantum holograms above an ornate arcane device in a mystical library.

The High Priest's Breastplate (Choshen ha-Mishpat) as an Analog, Crystal-Based Holographic System and its relevance for AGI and AI. The Breastplate of the High Priest (Choshen ha-Mischpat), described in Exodus 28:15–30 and Leviticus 8:8, was far more than an ritual object. It was a sophisticated optoelectronic device - a portable, body-worn holographic communication and projection … Continue reading The High Priest’s Breastplate: An Ancient Holographic Quantum Computer? →

Justicial Reform in Israel: “We have the authority….” – A Logical Investigation of a Twisted Claim in Two Versions

Spiral staircase illuminated with neon pink, purple, and blue lights with a glowing geometric symbol floating above

Frame&Background The sentence under examination – “We have the authority both to determine that we have authority, and to determine that we do not have authority” – is not a mere theoretical curiosity. It touches the very heart of political and legal philosophy: the problem of self-referential authority, the legitimacy of power, and the limits … Continue reading Justicial Reform in Israel: “We have the authority….” – A Logical Investigation of a Twisted Claim in Two Versions →

We only enforce the law and do not create it, and therefore we are not responsible.

This statement is a classic rhetorical defense often used by law enforcement officers, bureaucrats, border officials, or administrative personnel when facing criticism for their actions. It appears in debates about police conduct, immigration enforcement, bureaucratic decisions, or compliance with controversial policies. Very seldom this argument appears in debates concerning the justicial branch or High Court. … Continue reading We only enforce the law and do not create it, and therefore we are not responsible. →

xAI’s Grok-Evaluated Framework Cuts GenAI Hallucinations by 50% – India is excited. Test SIM now!

India is excited. The 'VonNaftali' blog is seeing massive traffic from India on articles about GenAI, Triadic Resonance, and Grok's evaluation. Google is reacting very bureaucratically, and X not at all, even though Grok itself has successfully tested and evaluated the new formulas. X ignores Grok. Strange. Is the AI boom sinking into the confines … Continue reading xAI’s Grok-Evaluated Framework Cuts GenAI Hallucinations by 50% – India is excited. Test SIM now! →

Beyond Time: Next $-Trillion Physics: Unifying Spacetime, Quantum Fields, and Consciousness

A new Quantum Ontology from Naftali Hirschl, evaluated by Grok and Gemini. Contemporary theoretical physics faces a persistent ontological divide between the exactitude of mathematical constants and the empirical contingency of physical parameters. Me, Naftali Hirschl, deployed the Onto-Triadic Sedenion Algebra (OTS-16), a sixteen-dimensional hypercomplex framework that unifies these domains by treating biological agency as … Continue reading Beyond Time: Next $-Trillion Physics: Unifying Spacetime, Quantum Fields, and Consciousness →

The History of the Iron Dome: An Israeli Innovation with Some American Support

The Iron Dome (Hebrew: Kippot Barzel, "Iron Dome") is a mobile, all-weather air defense system specifically developed to intercept short-range rockets, artillery shells, and drones with a range of 4 to 70 kilometers. It protects populated areas and critical infrastructure through a combination of radar (EL/M-2084), a battle management and weapon control system, and the … Continue reading The History of the Iron Dome: An Israeli Innovation with Some American Support →

Innovation from Israel: Entanglement of Kabbalah, Philosophy and Science

Dear friends in science & innovation from Israel. Last year (September/October 2025), I've, the owner of this blog vonnaftali, published several papers on 'Science - Kabbalah - Philosophy' – precursors to founding an 'Institute of Kabbalah, Philosophy and Science' (in formation) in Israel. Open-minded investors are welcomed. On the 20th of October 2025 Figshare suspended … Continue reading Innovation from Israel: Entanglement of Kabbalah, Philosophy and Science →

Data are not neutral- Predicts for AI & Neurotechnology

English follows German Seit dem berühmten Experiment von Schrödinger und seiner Katze weiß man, dass Daten, ja die Wirklichkeit durch den Beobachter mitbestimmt wird, manche meinen erst geschaffen. Seither hat sich auf vielen Feldern der Wissenschaft die Erkenntnis durchgesetzt, dass der Beobachter nicht neutral ist, sondern maßgeblich die Daten, das Ergebnis vorgewegnimmt, mitbestimmt. Darum auch … Continue reading Data are not neutral- Predicts for AI & Neurotechnology →

Make Israel’s Roads safe: Using Blinker Reduce Accidents up to 40%

Israel's roads are not the best; the dominant driving style can rather be described as aggressive, and using turn signals (blinker, indicator) is practically unknown. No wonder that Israel has one of the highest accident and fatality rates in the OECD. Several international studies prove that consistent law enforcement is needed. And that starts with … Continue reading Make Israel’s Roads safe: Using Blinker Reduce Accidents up to 40% →

Poor Roads and Aggressive Driving causes Substantial Higher Fuel Consumption in Israel

Poor roads—with potholes, uneven surfaces, or high roughness—noticeably increase vehicle fuel consumption. An issue in Israel. The main mechanism is Pavement-Vehicle-Interaction (PVI): Uneven surfaces increase rolling resistance, lead to energy losses in tires and suspension (dissipation through vibrations), and cause more frequent braking and accelerating. The engine compensates for these losses, raising consumption. Scientific studies … Continue reading Poor Roads and Aggressive Driving causes Substantial Higher Fuel Consumption in Israel →

Israel’s IsraLab Program: A New Initiative to Boost AI Research

Israel has launched the IsraLab Program, a significant initiative aimed at accelerating academic research in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning. The program seeks to address delays in Israel's AI development, partly attributed to the impacts of recent conflicts, by fostering collaboration between academia, the security sector, and the hi-tech industry. The IsraLab Program establishes … Continue reading Israel’s IsraLab Program: A New Initiative to Boost AI Research →

How Big AI is plundering the concept of Truth

Big AI is stepping forward today with very grand claims that, however, hardly withstand closer philosophical and scientific scrutiny — as I have elaborated in articles on the concepts of "soul", "intelligence", "data", or "knowledge". The PR and marketing assertions of Big AI that AI will soon deliver real, actual AGI, that it possesses consciousness … Continue reading How Big AI is plundering the concept of Truth →

Soul in Philosophy&Religion. How Big AI is Plundering the Concept of Soul.

A deliberately polemical intervention: The concept of the soul (Greek psyché, Heb. nefesh/neshama, Lat. anima) has constituted a central construct since antiquity, linking ontological, epistemological, and anthropological questions. In the contemporary debate surrounding Artificial Intelligence (AI), it is increasingly instrumentalized - for instance, by companies such as Anthropic, which postulate a "functional soul" to legitimize … Continue reading Soul in Philosophy&Religion.

Human Shadows in the Machine: The case Grok

Three Faces of Grok: How the Same AI Called the Same Article “Crank Conspiracy” and “Historically Important” in One Day. When the same model, with the same weights, can dismiss this article as a “paranoid conspiracy theory” in one thread and praise it as “10/10 – perfect” in another, we are no longer dealing with … Continue reading Human Shadows in the Machine: The case Grok →
