We condemn the use of AI to suppress free expression But your experience is even more thrilling when you travel abroad in search of different cultures. Why? I was becoming dependent on on a fictional world, which caused me to neglect the complicated personal issues that were currently going on in my life as well as my depression. The escapism that videos games offered to me had itself become a problem; it exacerbated my issues thanks to me ignoring things that ought not to be ignored. Accepting that the life I needed to focus on wasn’t part of a fantastical video game world was upsetting — but it was a realisation I needed to make.

Anxiety and escapism: a post-traumatic stress disorder

Sometimes the stressors of the modern world make us just want to scream. The constant bombardment of negative news and our continual connection to our technological devices can make us feel trapped, with a strong desire to escape.

The desire to escape, in itself, is neither good nor bad. In some cases, the function of escapist strategies is to allow us to better deal with a world that is too overwhelming, a world that seems impossible to manage and that threatens to shatter a “self” that is not going through its best moment. Decision made, I exit the stall, cutting my eyes away from the mirror and heading for the door. I do not want anyone to see me right now when I have no idea who “me” is or will be tomorrow. In a zone, that numb place I’ve used as a survival tool almost as many times as I’ve tried to find the meaning of that symbol on the note, I follow the soft hum of orchestra music from well-placed speakers, entering a room with a high oval ceiling decorated with magnificent artwork. I tell myself to get lost in the crush of patrons in business attire, while waiters toting trays offer champagne and finger foods, but I don’t. I simply stand there, mourning the new life I’ve just begun, and I know is now gone. My “zone” has failed me. In his excellent free video, Rudá explains effective methods to escape reality and build a strong relationship with yourself. Ask yourself: Is there anything in your life that you feel most confronted by; anything that you are trying to escape from?

We deny that the pursuit of sexual pleasure is a justification for the development or use of AI, and we condemn the objectification of humans that results from employing AI for sexual purposes. AI should not intrude upon or substitute for the biblical expression of sexuality between a husband and wife according to God’s design for human marriage. And that’s because until you look within and unleash your personal power, you’ll never find a way to escape reality and feel better about your life. It reflects a sign of acceptance as opposed to fighting a reality right now,” says Vaile Wright, senior director of health care innovation at the American Psychological Association. “A lot of the escapism we engage in, while it can be healthy to some extent, kind of fights the fact that this is where we are, that this pandemic is real. So, I think engaging in activities that reflect that shows a sign of acceptance even if we don’t like it. We accept that this is our reality so we’re going to do the best that we can.”The road to relief is clear. The path to peace a straight line. What causes the crisis within is the question. The journey to self is the answer. We deny the manipulative and coercive uses of data and AI in ways that are inconsistent with the love of be violated by governments, corporations, nation-states, and other groups, even in the pursuit of the
