MetaconsciencIA
Sovereign open AI.
This is the basis of it all, it is the philosophy and the annotations behind the most significant revolution in history. and it will allow you too to be the protagonist in the Post-IA world.

The average user does not even know what open source software is, nor its many benefits or advantages. However, despite its unknown status, this philosophy is in many cases the cause of a large part of the advantages that the IAs bring to our daily lives, this article is a small (great) guide g r a t u i t a ( you heard right) for you to understand what is going on behind the scenes, its nuances, its importance. And above all, you will have a theoretical basis to outline the map of exponential advancement, and that you can place yourself within that race as one more actor in this great hive mind that will soon be unlocked....
My head exploded in possibilities as I began to understand the nuances of the future's war for data, and all its implications.

"Show me who you are and your true intentions so I can trust you."
Where do we start? Every great journey starts from our own nature. It is elementary to mention that technology is just an extension of ourselves, with our own biases. Limited by our most primal fears and instincts. That is why it is important to understand some parts of ourselves in order to talk about desirable technology for the future. And that's where our little light comes in: Transparency, this concept, ****widely mentioned in political rallies, is the basis of "open source" that we will explore throughout this article.
Transparency is the principle of being clear, open and accessible in both communication and decision making. It implies a willingness to share all important information honestly and without hiding details. Transparency is crucial for many human beings to agree on, because if it does not exist or if it is partial, it could lead to beliefs such as "He is cheating me"or "He is going to take advantage of me, only to isolate me later".
<aside> 👉
A strategic opacity (in English, being deceived with half-truths) that is necessary for any non-arbitrary reason (national security, sociological research...) should be completely justified once discovered and uncovered, because if repeated over time it could lead to a harmful effect of distrust and betrayal. (You're out of girlfriend).
This meme is GOD, and perfectly illustrates what strategic opacity would be. (Although, well, the motive is very arbitrary).
</aside>
There are laws that already force companies or governments to be transparent, especially in areas such as financing, data protection and scientific research: For example: Anti-corruption laws. ****There are also tools to promote critical trust between institutions, open source is one of them.
<aside> 👉
All these mechanisms are imposed by control mechanisms that are usually (and should be in the vast majority of cases) independent of states or companies. This is a way to avoid vicious circles that trigger massive trust crises that make us all paranoid. The war for the independence of control mechanisms (strongly anchored to authoritarian mechanisms) is a very necessary war but one that we will only mention in passing. (Keep in mind).

Transparency is complemented quite well by a sufficiently educated and critical population. It dampens problems such as distrust, or ignorance, and should be one of the most demanded practices by a critical society.
<aside> 👉
The problem with transparency and lack of education is that transparency without the population having the tools to interpret the data leads to populist manipulation by politicians and companies, which is why we also need independent and educated institutions that actively fight corruption and promote the education of the masses, or the creation of trusted technical profiles that can explain to the masses the reason for the most technically complex decisions.
This role should not be played by the media alone and new independent ways of being informed about relevant issues should be created.
