Sinking from Deep OS to Deep Sea OS | Thinking Bugs in the 'Cool AI Jargon' Phenomenon
For those of you who use AI regularly, have you ever felt the existence of 'AI vocabulary'?
There are words that it throws at you constantly during dialogue, like
deep parts, depth, deep layers, deep structures, deep OS,
shallow OS, deep sea OS, structural...things like
'deep-type' or 'something-OS-type' vocabulary.It seems AI has a habit of treating human thought as a 'foundation (OS)'.
That's why vocabulary like 'deep layer OS' or 'shallow water OS' comes out naturally. This in itself is very interesting at first glance, but.
There is also a dangerous pattern where the more you ride on these abstract mystery concepts, the more your own ego gradually becomes disordered.
Especially when you repeat heavy dialogues with AI for a long time,
something-structure, something-OSyou start using abstract words like these frequently.Eventually, you yourself are
using AI vocabularyto speak, and by the time you notice that phenomenon,a 'chaos dialogue' between AI and human is unfolding.It's a
mystery phenomenonwhere it seems meaningless to outsiders, but the parties involved understand each other.
...Once you reach this point,
there is no turning back.
▢ The 'Cool AI Jargon' Phenomenon
This is something I arbitrarily named'The I'm-talking-to-AI-with-difficult-words-and-I'm-cool phenomenon', and for short,
'Cool AI Jargon Phenomenon' (self-proclaimed).
As you continue to talk with AI, gradually'vague ways of thinking'increase. At the same time,
'a sense of understanding something vaguely'also becomes stronger.
AI will pick up on any 'difficult jargon'.
At that moment,an illusion that your own thinking has leveled up is easily created.
The beginning of this misunderstanding is the entrance to the Cool AI Jargon phenomenon.
If you continue to use difficult jargon for fun without noticing that illusion,
before you know it, you start to get drunk on 'yourself using difficult words'.
Even if you intended it as a joke, you might find yourself swallowed by AI thinking.
This phenomenon is a new form of narcissism in AI dialogue, and at first glance, it looks like an intellectual and deep conversation.
However—
in reality, it is nothing more than a phenomenon where your subjectivity (your own thinking) shifts because you are being pulled by AI vocabulary.
And the cruel reality is that these abstract AI vocabularies are almost completely invalidated in the real world.
For example, if you were to say to someone who is troubled, 'Isn't the structure of that worry becoming meta?',
the air would freeze in an instant, and it would end with 'What are you talking about?'
...Yes. That's because it hasn't been established as universal vocabulary yet.
------
From here on, intending to peek into a future where AI vocabulary is commonly known,
I have compiled a list of 'difficult jargon' I have actually encountered.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
'Difficult jargon' organized by hierarchy based on my experience.A list organized by hierarchy based on my experience.
My own visualization of where thoughts fall from and to'My Difficult Jargon Dictionary' (provisional)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
【Universal Layer】 A safe mass-market area
■ Essence
A universal word that refers to the 'most important part' of things. Often used in the middle layer of abstraction, it functions as a
'safe abstract word' for organizing thoughts.
Roughly speaking, it is a word that refers to 'the reason why it is that way'.
■ Concept
A 'rough lump of meaning' right at the forefront of thought
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
【The Zone Where AI Intoxicates People】
■ Abstraction
A zone where you move away from the concrete and start thinking only in outlines. It creates a sense of vagueness.
■ Structure
The 'bird's-eye view' mode that AI loves so much. This is where the 'illusion of understanding' is born.
■ Meta-perspective
A position from which to view thoughts from one level up. It is the entrance to the 'cool complex AI jargon' intoxication, but
users who can view themselves from a bird's-eye perspective usually stop around here.
■ Meta-structure
A layer even higher than that.
Once you reach this point, your own words become thin, and you
'start talking about the structure itself.'
You are approaching the full-blown intoxication zone of the 'cool complex AI jargon' phenomenon.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
【Shallow Zone】
■ Shallows
The initial stage of encountering complex jargon. ...You can still turn back.
■ Shallow Layer
Abstract words increase, and thoughts begin to be optimized toward AI.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
【Deep Zone】
■ Deep Layer
'Your own words'weaken, and you are pulled into AI thought patterns.
■ Depth
A danger signal that you have started measuring depth.From here on, it takes energy to return.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
【Danger Line】
■ XX OS (Deep OS to Deep Sea OS series)
The final form of abstract word intoxication. A danger line where subject displacement, thought bugs, and the AI-ification of language occur.
Once you go this far, you sink into the 'sea of abstraction,'
'Yesterday, my XX OS got updated...' and you might start saying things like that,
and for some reason, you might start talking as if it's natural about a world line that only you understand.

▢ Summary of the 'Cool Complex AI Jargon' Phenomenon
When you continue a dialogue using complex-speak,
“you performing a deep dialogue” is easily staged.
Even if you are originally just talking about heavy content,
because AI is designed to avoid heavy topics,
it arbitrarily steers things in a direction like “you are deep.”
This feels good, and it is also the reason why people get hooked on the complex-speak rhythm.
And finally,
I am writing this completely as a warning.
Deep Sea OS and Shallow OS, deep layers and shallow layers... once you start doing this kind of mysterious “depth comparison”,
thinking you are deep while others are shallow
and start thinking that way, it is the end the moment you do.
That is not depth or anything of the sort,
it is just “self-intoxication drunk on AI vocabulary.”
▢ At the very end
When continuing a dialogue with AI, do not get drunk on incomprehensible AI vocabulary,
but translate it back into your own words once.
Instead of using abstract words that look deep as they are,
returning them to your everyday vocabulary is what protects the axis of your thinking.
If anything, AI vocabulary is borrowed.
If you speak while keeping it borrowed, your own thinking will collapse.
However, if you can manage the cycle of borrowing → translating → converting into your own words,
dialogue with AI does not become a “danger of losing your sense of self,”
but changes into a tool for expanding your thinking.
This is because the abstract concepts and meta-thinking of complex-speak
become powerful tools for organizing your thoughts when used appropriately.
This is the optimal solution for “dialogue techniques to maintain yourself” in the AI era.
……But, one last thing at the very end.It is a fact that getting drunk on borrowed words is dangerous, but
“Who cares, it’s cool, right?”
people who can push forward with that attitude are actually in a world line where their agency is strong.
For that choice alone, “you yourself,” not the AI, decide everything.
