You could skip a lot of stuff by training a transformer on some kind of neural embeddings. You probably get effective FTL communication and limited immortality that way.
- falcor84 1y agoHow did you arrive at FTL? At best we'll have comms at radio transmission speed, right?
- msgodel 1y agoIt's faster than light because your model is already there so no information has to be exchanged.
- throwaway34564 1y agovery cool concept - kind of like an offline inference model of your conscious. You could have periodic (over the wire) sync updates to your real self
- falcor84 1y agoBut isn't it the same sort of FTL and "immortality" that a creator gets from us listening to a downloaded podcast that they prerecorded? To quote Woody Allen: > “I don't want to achieve immortality through my work; I want to achieve immortality through not dying. I don't want to live on in the hearts of my countrymen; I want to live on in my apartment.”
