Big Updates in Affective Computing: TextEmotionEstimator is Now Free & emotionics Library Version Up! Today, I have two major updates regarding my ongoing work in Emotionics and Affective Computing . Whether you are a macOS power user looking to analyze text sentiment or a Python developer building emotion-aware applications, these updates are for you. 1. TextEmotionEstimator for macOS: Now Available for Free I’ve decided to make my macOS application, TextEmotionEstimator , completely free to download . For those who haven't tried it yet, TextEmotionEstimator is a native macOS tool designed to estimate the emotional nuances behind text. In a world where digital communication often lacks "tone," this tool helps bridge the gap by providing data-driven insights into the sentiment and emotional state of written content. Why make it free? I believe that the tools for understanding human emotion should be accessible. By removing the price barrier, I hope to see more creat...

To SIGMA Providers To the Executives and Heads of Development at leading AI providers, Thank you for your continuous dedication to bringing innovative products to the world. While the $20-per-month subscription model has become the industry standard, perhaps the time has come to redefine the value proposition for truly high-end stakeholders. We are looking at a future that goes beyond mere convenience to the optimization of human destiny . I have outlined the vision for an "Ultimate Privilege Plan" based on five strategic pillars. I hope these insights serve as a valuable reference for your strategic roadmaps. [Proposal: The Next-Generation Executive Plan] —— Shifting from a "Predicted Life" to a "Predictive Life" Current AI applications are still largely confined to the realm of "efficiency." However, what sovereign-level investors and decision-makers of global organizations truly seek is not just a tool, but an "OS for Survival and Prosper...

The LDP’s Landslide Victory and the Possibility of an End to the Ukraine War (A Structural Analysis) Premise • Japan’s House of Representatives election does not directly determine the course of the Ukraine war. • However, it can indirectly influence whether the war shifts into a termination phase . 1. LDP Landslide Victory = Fixation of Japan’s Political and Military Trajectory • The LDP’s victory solidifies, over the medium to long term, policy directions such as: • Increased defense spending • Deeper military integration with the United States • Greater flexibility in constitutional interpretation • This means that Japan is increasingly perceived as “a country that is not radical, but is steadily militarizing.” 2. Changes in the Strategic Environment from Russia’s Perspective • From Russia’s point of view: • West: attrition caused by the Ukraine war • South: instability in the Middle East and surrounding regions • East: a fixed and institu...

Notes on the Ability to Be “Prioritized” by Both Humans and AI 1. Scarce Resources in the +AI Era • Different from traditional scarce resources (natural resources, technology, patents) • The ability to attract human attention (the attention economy) • The ability to gather and utilize AI computational power is also a new scarce resource • Computational power itself is not scarce → What matters is what it is used for, and with what priority 2. What Does “the Ability to Be Prioritized” Mean? • The ability to create a state where one is processed with priority by both humans and AI • At its core, it is the ability to reduce the processing cost for the other side • Not domination or manipulation, but a natural rise in priority 3. Human-Side Processing Characteristics • Humans are overloaded with information at all times • They unconsciously prioritize content that: • Is easy to understand immediately • Seems meaningful • Feels trustworthy •...
