Headwaters on Nostr: Many of the people I supported weren’t missing meaning. Meaning was getting trapped ...
Many of the people I supported weren’t missing meaning.
Meaning was getting trapped between their bodies, their environment and the expectations of people around them.
That is an infrastructure problem—not a character flaw.
What if we could support all types of knowing to build more meaning into the world?
Care workers learn things AI teams rarely model:
A gesture can mean five different things.
Context determines which one.
Confidence is not consent.
Repetition is not truth.
And being unable to explain yourself does not make someone else’s interpretation yours.
