If you're interested in experimenting...
Well, wait. Is there some way of flagging "potentially damaging information that people who do not understand risk-analysis should NOT have access to" on this site? Because I'd rather not start posting ways to hack your wetware without validating whether my audience can recover from the mental equivalent of a SEGFAULT.
In my position, I should experiment with very few things that might be unsafe over the course of my total lifetime. This will probably not be one of them, unless I see very impressive results from elsewhere.
nod that's probably the most sensible response.
To help others understand the potential risks, the creation of a 'tulpa' appears to involve hacking the way your sense-of-self (what current neuroscience identifies as a function of the right inferior parietal cortex) interacts with your ability to empathize and emulate other people (the so-called mirror neuron / "put yourself in others' shoes" modules). Failure modes involve symptoms that mimic dissociative identity disorder, social anxiety disorder, and schizophrenia.
