Current focus: A transcript-matched topic anchored by excerpts such as "Okay. So, again, what's happening is that you're looking at the hardware issues, and you completely ignore the software. Does that make sense? You're..." Most recent Jiang source touching this topic: [Paradise Begins Where Strategy Ends](https://jianglens.com/episodes/predictive-history-ef5b3cwpkxg/) (2026-06-18, day precision).

Source refs: `video:predictive-history-ef5b3cwpkxg@transcript:v1#seg-0094`, `video:predictive-history-ef5b3cwpkxg@transcript:v1#seg-0095` - model: Jiang says the brain filters out 99 percent of available information, while psychedelic states and ego shutdown reopen access to more information, including spiritual forces.

It is not a manually authored canon page. Freshness warning: this static topic page is bounded by the newest Jiang source listed above. For live/current events, first check /episodes/ and /interviews/ for newer event-specific readings. If none exists, use prospective mechanism search: establish current facts, actors, incentives, constraints, and mechanisms from live/current sources, then apply Jiang Lens concepts as dated hypotheses rather than as Jiang's current view. For broader or missing-topic search, use the letter shards under /topics/index/ before falling back to the bulk transcript-search files.
