Excerpt from Cowboy Bebop: The Jazz Messenger - History (translation below)
GATE 位相���空間理論に基づき、 位相差空間に進入/ 航行を可能にしたのが位相差空間ゲートである。 位相差空間とは異次元空間のようなもので、この空間内をつないだゲートを通ることで太陽系内の移動時間が飛躍的に短縮できるようになった。また、太陽光線を遠くの惑星まで照射することもできるようになり、各惑星の地球化(テラフォーミング)も可能になったのだ。 通常空間から位相差空間を航行している宇宙船を見ると、光の点減が走り去っているように見え、とくにゲート付近ではその光が尾を引き、帯となって見える。また、通常空間を航行する宇宙船と位相差空間を航行する宇宙船は、それぞれが見えていながら、違う空間に存在しているため、交わっても接触することはない。 【そもそもゲートの発想は、 メカデサイン時、 太陽系内を短時間で移動するための新動力を考えているときに生みだされたものだそう。 また、ゲートのラフデザインは設定協力の河森正治が描き、 具体的なデサインおよびCGエフェクト監修はセットデサインの今掛勇が行なった】
GATE
Developed based on the Phase-space Theory1, the hyperspace gate is what allows ships to enter and navigate phase-space.
Phase-space is like an alternate dimension, and by passing through gates connected to this dimension, travel times to distant parts of the solar system are reduced drastically. This gate also made it possible to transmit sunlight to distant planets, making terraforming an option for as yet uninhabitable planets.
When looking at a ship traveling from normal space into  phase-space, it appears as a vanishing point of light. For those closer to the gate, this point of light stretches into a tail that looks like a band. Additionally, both ships traveling through normal space and phase-space can see one another, however, as they exist in two different dimensions, even if they intersect, they will never come into contact with one another.
[We came up with the idea for this gate during the mecha design process while brainstorming new propulsion systems for rapid travel within the solar system. The rough design of the gate was created with the help of Shoji Kawamori, while the specifics of the design, as well as the CG effects, were created by the Set Designer Isamu Imakake.]
(1:Upon further investigation into the Japanese term 位相差空間, I found a wiki page (only available in Japanese) that talks about phase space in physics where a space in which the coordinates (orthogonal axes) are the position and momentum of a dynamical system. The term phase space is also mentioned in the Hamiltonian mechanics Wikipedia article, which goes into the mathematics of the equations used in Hamiltonian mechanics. Uhhh, I can’t math, but I couldn’t find any direct mention of this being applied to space travel, although it is categorized under Industrial and applied mathematics. On a whim, however, I put phase space theory into Google, and found an English article for that which states that phase space is a space in which all possible "states" of a dynamical system or a control system are represented, with each possible state corresponding to one unique point in the phase space. My art and humanities degree does not allow me to process anymore information other than this. But I think the translation I’ll use for 位相差空間理論 is Phase-space Theory.)

The Role of AI in Employee Retention: Unlocking the Power of Data-Driven Insights
In today’s competitive business landscape, retaining top talent has become a critical priority for organizations across industries. Employee turnover can significantly impact productivity, morale, and overall organizational performance. As companies strive to foster a positive work environment and cultivate a loyal workforce, the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in employee retention has emerged as a game-changer.
This article explores how AI-driven solutions can empower organizations to proactively identify and address potential retention challenges, ultimately enhancing employee engagement and job satisfaction. By leveraging the power of data and advanced analytics, companies can gain valuable insights and implement targeted strategies to create a workplace culture that nurtures and retains their most valuable asset – their employees.
Theoretical Framework
The application of AI in employee retention is grounded in various psychological and management theories that underscore the importance of understanding and addressing employee needs and motivations. Herzberg’s Two-Factor Theory1 highlights the significance of factors such as recognition, achievement, and growth opportunities in fostering job satisfaction and reducing turnover intentions.
Similarly, the Self-Determination Theory2 emphasizes the role of autonomy, competence, and relatedness in promoting intrinsic motivation and well-being within the workplace. By leveraging AI to personalize employee experiences and tailor development opportunities, organizations can effectively address these fundamental human needs, fostering a sense of purpose and commitment among their workforce.
Key Elements of AI in Employee Retention
Predictive Analytics and Employee Turnover
AI-powered predictive analytics can play a pivotal role in identifying employees at risk of leaving the organization. By analyzing vast amounts of data from various sources, such as payroll, HR records, and employee surveys, AI algorithms can uncover patterns and indicators that may signal potential turnover3 4. This proactive approach enables HR professionals and managers to intervene early and implement targeted retention strategies, addressing concerns before they escalate.
Enhancing Employee Engagement and Satisfaction
AI-driven platforms can analyze employee data to gain insights into factors contributing to job satisfaction, work-life balance, and career growth opportunities5. By leveraging these insights, organizations can personalize employee experiences, offer tailored development programs, and implement initiatives that foster a positive and engaging work environment. Additionally, AI-powered performance management systems can provide objective evaluations and personalized feedback, enabling managers to offer targeted coaching and support.
Talent Acquisition and Career Progression
AI can play a crucial role in attracting and retaining top talent by streamlining the recruitment process and identifying candidates who align with the organization’s culture and values 6. Furthermore, AI-powered career progression planning can monitor employee performance, identify growth opportunities, and recommend personalized development plans, ensuring that employees feel valued and supported in their professional journey7.
Research and Case Studies
Numerous studies and real-world examples highlight the positive impact of AI on employee retention. For instance, a study by the University of New South Wales8 demonstrated how Explainable AI (XAI) can be applied to predict employee attrition and implement effective retention strategies, providing transparency into the decision-making process.
Companies like IBM and Accenture have successfully leveraged AI-driven workforce analytics to identify flight risks and implement targeted interventions, resulting in improved retention rates and significant cost savings9 10.
Practical Application: AlbiCoins Solutions
While AlbiCoins does not currently offer AI solutions, their existing products can contribute to addressing employee retention challenges. The Value-Based Recognition module, for example, can foster a culture of recognition by aligning employee contributions with the company’s core values, enhancing engagement and job satisfaction.
The Team Project Contest module can promote a collaborative and innovative work environment, fostering a sense of purpose and achievement among employees. Additionally, the AlbiCoins Study Boost module can incentivize and reward employees for participating in training and development programs, supporting their professional growth and career progression.
Impact of Leadership
Effective leadership plays a pivotal role in promoting and managing AI-driven employee retention initiatives. Research has shown that transformational leadership styles, which emphasize empowerment, inspiration, and individualized consideration, are positively associated with increased innovation and better problem-solving within teams.11
Leaders who embrace AI as a strategic tool for employee retention can foster a culture of data-driven decision-making, transparency, and continuous improvement. By actively involving employees in the implementation of AI solutions and addressing their concerns, leaders can build trust and ensure a smooth transition towards a more data-driven approach to talent management.
Conclusion
In the era of digital transformation, the role of AI in employee retention has become increasingly crucial. By leveraging the power of data and advanced analytics, organizations can gain valuable insights into employee needs, motivations, and potential flight risks. AI-driven solutions enable companies to proactively address retention challenges, personalize employee experiences, and foster a positive and engaging work environment.
As the demand for top talent continues to intensify, embracing AI as a strategic tool for employee retention can provide a competitive advantage. By combining AI-driven insights with effective leadership and a commitment to employee well-being, organizations can create a workplace culture that nurtures and retains their most valuable asset – their talented workforce.
For business leaders seeking to implement AI-driven employee retention strategies, it is recommended to explore resources from reputable organizations such as the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM).12 and the Harvard Business Review13. Additionally, consulting with AI experts and HR professionals can help ensure a successful and ethical implementation of these technologies within your organization.

A Secular Theory of Personhood
"Active Relation" Theory
1. capacities are present (not potential) and immutable aspects
eg. as a sentient being I have the capacity to perceive
2. capabilities are present and mutable aspects
eg. my capability of perceiving is lessened when I'm not alert
3. immutable aspects (properties) cannot be attributed to mutable aspects (conditions), lest they inherit mutability (conditionality)
eg. my extrinsic alertness does not define my intrinsic sentience
4. the property of personhood is the qualifying criterion of persons (entities)
ie. a human is a person because they have personhood
5. the property of personhood cannot be conditional upon present capabilities of person-entities
eg. while not capable of consciousness, a human in a coma is still a person; a human with a disability which limits their capability of consciousness is not less of a person
6. the fundamental capacity to attain/retain/restore, unimpeded, the essential capabilities of a person is a property of human embryos
ie. consciousness is an essential capability of human persons which human embryos have the fundamental capacity to attain within their lifecycle
7. this fundamental capacity of human embryos is morally significant
ie. human gametes & tumors are not morally significant; without intervention, these can never attain discrete consciousness within their lifecycle
8. the property of personhood can be attributed to this fundamental capacity
eg. a braindead human body with no ordinary capacity to restore its capability of consciousness is not a person; the reason a comatose human remains a person is their capacity to restore their capability of consciousness
9. A human embryo has the significant capacity to attain essential person-capability, and personhood can be attributed to their capacity.
ie. If you accept this definition of personhood, then a human being qualifies as a morally significant person at conception.

Who are the Goddess and God of Wicca?
The Horned God and Triple Goddess are generally the deities you’ll hear people associate with Wicca, but these very same concepts generate a lot of confusion. You’ll read a lot of books that will tell you the Horned God is like this, or the Triple Goddess is like that. There are a lot of oversimplifications and generalizations going on with these descriptions. Many Wiccan sources also refer to the Lord and Lady as well, or “The” God, and “The” Goddess (the article “the” implying they’re specific deities). This leaves people to wonder— to whom, exactly, are we referring when we use these terms?
Wicca, being a 20th century religion, is fairly unique in one way: we don’t actually have our own deities. That is, our religion wasn’t built around veneration of any specific deities of our own—we worship Pagan Gods and Goddesses of other ancient cultures in a new and modern world. We do not have our own unique pantheon, nor do we believe our religion was revealed to us by deities.
So, who are these characters, then, that you’ll find peppered throughout Wiccan books and websites? Who is the Horned God or the Lord or the God? Who is the Triple Goddess, the Lady or the Goddess? Let’s have a look.
Tumblr media
Types and Titles - Not Names
One quick way to settle a lot of confusion is to remind people of this: these terms in question are types of deities or titles of respect. Horned God is a type of Godhead, not one specific God. Triple Goddess is a type of Goddesshead, not one specific Goddess, or a specific trio of Goddesses. These terms are merely descriptions, not deities in themselves.
Likewise, Lord and Lady are titles of respect by which we call any God or Goddess, respectively; Lord and Lady are not names. Zeus is one Wiccan’s Lord, Thor is another Wiccan’s Lord, Lugh is another's... just as a Christian's Lord is YHWH (Jehova) though they call him 'Lord' and 'God'.
“The God” and “The Goddess” are not specific deities that all Wiccans worship; they are simply the generic term for male deities and female deities, respectively. So my God that I worship may not be the same God another Wiccan worships. But I still refer to him as God, 'the' God, or Lord.
So why do Wiccans use all these titles and types instead of just using the name of their God/dess?
Originally in Wiccan covens, Wiccans didn't speak the names of the deities they worshiped outside the circle. This was to prevent others from defaming and disrespecting the deities.
This still holds today for a lot of Wiccans, though many eclectics are more relaxed on it. They might be willing to tell other Wiccans/Pagans, or close friends, who their specific God/desses are but not wish to divulge that information to just anyone.
For other Wiccans, the Horned God and Triple Goddess, or the Lord and Lady, or The God and The Goddess have taken on a persona of their own. Some would argue this is the result of watered-down eclectic Wicca and improperly trained practitioners who have failed to do any in-depth research. Others embrace the “All Gods are one God, all Goddesses are one Goddess” theory1 which has become more prevalent with eclectics in the 1990s. These people would argue that all the various God/desses in mythology are either aspects or personifications of the same divine couple.
1 The “All Gods are one God, all Goddesses are one Goddess” theory actually didn’t originate in Wicca; it was from Dion Fortune, a Christo-Pagan Ceremonial Magician. This kind of ‘soft polytheism’ is probably as common in Wicca now as ‘hard polytheism’ (the belief that deities of different cultures are all unique and distinct beings).
The Horned God
The very term “Horned God” is controversial, considering most of us grew up in a Christian-dominant society in which the only god-like being who had horns was 'the devil'. This is why the term 'Horned God' gets a lot of knee-jerk reactions.
There is no relationship, however, between the Wiccan view of Horned Gods and the Christian view of Satan. That would be like saying a pumpkin must be an orange in disguise because they have the same color skin. Horned Gods existed long before any concept of Satan did, and nowhere in the Bible was Satan described as having horns and hooves—those extra-biblical descriptions came from the Middle Ages.
Horned Gods were sometimes depicted as having curving, conical horns like the goat or ram, or sometimes the branched antlers like the stag. Sometimes they were animal-headed, and sometimes goat-footed. Some of the more well-known Horned Gods include Pan and Cernuous.
To ancient Pagans, Gods with horns were related to the wild and man’s primal nature. They represent mankind unencumbered by the trappings of civilization and living by his instincts in a natural state of being. Horned Gods were closely related to the forests—particularly the wild animals. They’re related to the hunt (both as hunter, the life-taker, and as hunted, the life-giver; thus, he perpetuates the cycles of life). They would often be associated with fertility— the virile male embracing his carnal desires without the imposition of social codes and mores guiding his behavior.
The Horned God made its way into Wicca due to the popular theories at the time by a handful of 19th century/early 20th century anthropologists who attempted to tie all of Pagandom together as if it were one universal pre-Christian set of beliefs that went underground to avoid persecution. Christianity had long painted Pagans as villains; in the age of enlightenment, many tried to look at history from a new and more open-minded perspective, and they romanticized antiquity. Some became desperate to turn the tables and paint Pagans as the victims. Ultimately, the attempts to oversimplify all the various Pagan religious from all over the world has been discredited, and the attempt to prove them going underground as a single surviving ancient cult has been debunked. Still, it was these oversimplified works that were prominent theories at about the time Wicca was forming, so it heavily influenced Wicca's formation.
To Wiccans, the Horned God motif fits in neatly in the Wheel of the Year, however it’s important to understand that just because many Wiccans worship a Horned God doesn’t mean they worship the same God.
Finally, not all Wiccans have a direct relationship with Horned Gods. Some Wiccans worship a Sun God, another god-type that fits neatly into the Wheel of the Year mythos and corresponds well to a Moon Goddess.
Remember also, that not all Gods are as easily “typecast”.

Tumblr media
The Triple Goddess
The most commonly known triple deity form today is probably the trinity in Christianity. If one can understand how Christians see the father, the son and the holy spirit as three, distinct persons in one, then one can understand how Wiccans view the Triple Goddess. In Wicca, many Goddesses are seen as having three forms that mirror the stages of womanhood:
* The Maiden, who is the young, innocent, often (but not always) virginal beauty. She is independent and idealistic, ready to take on the world and looking to the future possibilities, filled with all the promise of what can be. She’s associated with youth, the time of coming of age, new beginnings, the new moon and spring fertility festivals.
* The Mother, who is mature, experienced lover and (often, but not always) parent. She is nurturing and protective, representing the selfless giving of oneself to sustain others. She's associated with family, children, domestic issues, growth, sexuality, the full moon, the summer (when she becomes pregnant) and winter (when she gives birth).
* The Crone, who is the wise, guiding, respected elder (but not necessarily grandmother) of the trio. She is strong and pragmatic. She represents the "dark" side-- fears, decay, and destruction. Not that this makes her 'evil'; rather, she's someone who guides us through some of the biggest challenges in her infinite wisdom. She's associated with changes and transformations (particularly the biggest transformation-- death and rebirth).
It should be noted that not all Goddesses fit neatly into a trio of Maiden, Mother and Crone. Ancient Pagans were not monotheists; they did not believe all Goddesses to be an aspect of the same divine feminine. It was the work of Robert Graves – another heavy influence, now debunked -- at the forefront of the Pagan revival who popularized this concept that eventually made its way into Wicca.
In ancient Paganism, trio Goddesses would have more often been three Maidens, three Mothers or three Crones. Just because a culture has a Maiden does not mean that they automatically must have a Mother and Crone counterpart. Historically speaking, this was not common. Even if a culture had Goddesses that would fit neatly into the Maiden, the Mother and the Crone categories, it should not be automatically assumed that they had a connection to each other.
Think of it this way: if you walked into a waiting room and found a college girl, a middle-aged mom, and a retiree, would you automatically assume they must be related because they occupy the same time and place? Of course you wouldn’t—the same thing can be said for Goddesses.
Most Goddesses will fit in at least one of these categories, but that’s simply because these are very generalized attributes. Not every Goddess in history is so easily stuffed in a box—many Goddesses can fit into more than one category. Consider Hestia, who can be simultaneously considered a Maiden Goddess (due to her virginity and never having children), but also a Mother Goddess (due to her association with domestic life, as keeper of the sacred hearthfires).
While the model of the Triple Goddess is useful in Wiccan mythos, a Wiccan must always be careful not to pigeonhole ancient Goddesses in groups of three.
