Being and Time was supposed to be a two parter, he never got to the Time part of his philosophy because he later became disillusioned with it being a core part of his project and so abandoned it. We never got to see quite what he meant to replace time with.

Why is this thread in English? Since it is, there is only one thing that we can do: >Being being being a being a bong a ding dong being bong bang a bam!

with heidegger, before you can understand it, you need to feel it.i recommend the following foolproof strategy:(1) read this, focusing on motifs of pathbeaking, disaster, and ruin (it's only 15 pages): https://rtraba.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/antigone-the-ode-on-man.pdf(2) read the last page of gatsby (it's not corny, your schooling brainwashed you into thinking it's corny, it's not)(3) when you have done 1 and 2, and ONLY then, blast this loud enough that your speakers start clipping: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qQzuvfvBdE&list=RD_qQzuvfvBdE

Here's what Heidegger told Thomas Sheehan in the 70s, whatever it's worth:>"If you want to understand my work, he said, you first have to understand two things: >1) the categorial intuition in [Husserl's] Logical Investigations and >2) Aristotle’s doctrine of κίνησις in the Physics." >The first text led him to revise his understanding of the second. Once he saw that Husserl’s breakthrough regarding the categorial intuition had already been anticipated by Aristotle in Metaphysics IX, 10, Heidegger had an insight that launched him on his lifelong pursuit of “the thing itself.” He saw that Bewegung makes possible Bedeutung, ex-sistential movement is what makes meaning possible.

The best way I have to explain it is that Heidegger is some sort of post-Parmenidean who sees in time the key to explain the way being becomes intelligible and how it's possible that we can perceive change if that what is not cannot be. Being is total but is disclosed by time. For example, think of a spherical object. Frozen in time it's just a circle, but if you rotate it its spherical being gets disclosed. Of course, the rotation itself is, in practice, an instance of time, but now instead of thinking of the disclosing of being in spatial terms, think of it in temporal terms. That's what it means, more or less, to be in time.

with ai our silicon valley masters have created a perfect negative image of everything historical being-there is not, so contemplating that might be a starting point

He's after something related but different, it's a less usual sense of time. To use your good example, he's not after what it is about temporality that lets us see what looks in a frozen moment to be a circle as a sphere, but rather that encounter (or set of encounters) that dis-closes or un-covers this being in either case, whether disclosed as a circle or a sphere. Some of the confusion can be, frankly, attributed to Heidegger himself, who uses "temporality" and related terms in ways that lead to one thinking a way outside of his subject, but in fact he's referring to chronos *as* aletheia instead of chronos understood in the usual sense. So, confusingly, he'll just use these words and only sometimes explain that "'Time' is a preliminary name for the openness of the clearing" that makes intelligibility possible.
