AI agent spec applied to Anapanasati meditation steps

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

An individual who practices Anapanasati meditation and builds AI agents has analyzed the 16 steps of the Anapanasati Sutta (MN 118) as a technical specification. They propose that an AI agent, equipped with a breath sensor, could theoretically label each breath perfectly according to this spec. The author notes that the agent's prediction would be based on observed patterns, without explicit instruction, and questions the nature of awareness when a meditator drifts and returns without external prompting.
