Did you visit their website? https://www.monasticacademy.org/

While I cannot judge them outright, their article "Cyborgs Need a Trustworthy Religion" can appear cultist as they try to intertwine technology and religion.

The fine line between futurism and cult.

I feel that spirituality does not concern itself with the material world making it immune to societal progress. Whereas organized religion becomes mired by societal progress as it's trapped in its own zeitgeist. I believe that trying to tie the two together is a misguided attempt at creating something when there is nothing that needs to be created.

Feel like I should tip https://retreat.guru/be/quantum-retreats that they need a new category "AI retreats".

(I wonder if they can do a package deal so we can get a crypto-AI-quantum retreat?)

Silicon Valley didn't take it far enough.
