OUR AI HUMAN DEVELOPMENT ENGINE

The Human Development Engine

The Human Development Engine

The Human Development Engine

The Engine identifies the Drive beneath what someone says, where they are in development, and what can promote their growth. Its structure mirrors human existence, consciousness, and development. The more we experience this AI’s capacity to understand people, the more possibilities we see for its application in the world.

HOW THE ENGINE WORKS

The immediate experience and the larger growth

The immediate experience and the larger growth

What the Engine sees and how it responds

01

Sees what is happening now

Identifies what a person feels, wants, or resists in this moment.

01

Sees what is happening now

Identifies what a person feels, wants, or resists in this moment.

02

Sees the larger growth

Locates where they are in development, who they are becoming, and the profound experience they seek.

03

Sees how they metabolize experience

Recognizes how they take in, digest, and grow through what happens to them.

04

Responds with all three in view

Meets what they need now, in a way they can take in, and supports who they are becoming, following how they innately grow.

INSIGHT INTO THE LAWS THAT GOVERN US

The Periodic Table of Drives

The Periodic Table of Drives

From the shirt we choose to the movie we watch, a Drive is pulling us toward a particular experience. The periodic table of Drives gives those yearnings an ordered structure. It lets us identify the experience beneath an action, how the person processes it, and how growth follows from it.

A BioneuroDrive regulates both psychological processes and physiological self-regulation through corresponding organ systems and biochemical systems. This brings objective distinctions to experiences that can otherwise seem vague. Practitioners can identify where a person is in development and what kind of experience would support their growth. This makes therapy more precise and reliable.

The Engine recognizes the issues we face in the context of our greater spiritual growth

Our nature is incredibly intelligent. We have innate Drives that are a natural compass: they direct us to what we need and truly want. Every Drive is critical. Our Drives regulate our body and our psychology and keep them developing, so we can survive physically and psychologically. When we don’t understand or fulfill these yearnings, we feel pain, depression, and anxiety, and we’re pulled toward addictions, reactions we regret, or reaching for the phone again.

Our Drives do even more: they direct us toward the profound, spiritual experiences we crave. Supporting our yearnings means supporting who we truly want to become.

THE WORK BEHIND IT

A model shaped by years of work with people

A model shaped by years of work with people

Psychology offered many ways to describe problems, but no reliable, integrated account of the Drives, consciousness, and development behind them. Dr. Matthew Braunstein articulated a model connecting psychological problems with the profound experiences people seek.
