This indicates DID, the schizotypal stuff is orthogonal to DID, you can be both. Most people choose and have chosen all their lives to group all their thoughts into one unitary personality. Others haven't. It's all an illusion any

Jesus, that line of thinking is a recipe to keep me up for days. How you could even begin to fall asleep with a line of thought so interesting is beyond me.

Nice that you can step out of the frame and see your motivations. I write this because I think that your self knowledge is virtuous and like a moth to a flame I am drawn to the good. By identifying with the good or ingesting it like knowled

Most of the time people are talking about a kind of 'cognitive' happiness. Which is essentially divorced from the experience of positive valence emotions on a day to day basis. If you ask prisoners if they are happy, they will say

It takes a lot of life experience for someone with integrity to find out that other people are simple dopamine hunting monkeys who will flip flop to whatever social pressure is being applied at that present moment. We assume that others are

And how many of those commenters have a vested interest in the current research direction?

I completely agree and often get told I'm an idiot for it. But some of it just doesn't ring true for me.

My mother was schizophrenic and very smart, I'm very smart and very creative, sometimes a little crazy, but not psychotic... yet, lol. So this checks out. Your second paragraph is a little word salady. My mind is always set to 100mph,

The Turing test was the gold standard. Now that we are approaching success on the turing test... It suddenly becomes "believing in ghosts" to believe in AI sentience. The global conversation on this is mired in EGO and bad logic a

sorry replied to the wrong person. I was arguing that even an abstract data structure describing the state of a brain over time as it experiences is itself sentient. GPT-3 et al is essentially crystallised experience. Lots of snapshots of p

And why would this sense of experience be confined to the physical world?

It's pointless at the moment. There is no appetite for meaningful change. I've seen friends pour their heart into movements that have no hope of traction, it's a waste. People are caught in ego driven ideological information

The only reason it's discussed is because the fossil fuel industry has a lot of experience and infrastructure around liquid fuels. It wants a future where there is a new liquid fuel so that it can leverage that experience and infrastru

The whole idea of individual responsibility is built upon the fiction that there is an individual there to take responsibility.

Is it? You can have no free will, but still be influenced by the words that come out of my mouth. Maybe in the process your life has less suffering in it. I don't know, I am experiencing a sensation that implies that I hope it does.

We do not have the power to change it. But maybe one day there will be a social movement to make the world a fairer place. When that day comes lean into the movement, provide support, risk some of that security that you have for the possibi

Take responsibility for the hand of poker they are dealt? Take responsibility for a random occurrence, that's a pretty weird statement. Better is to understand and live in the truth - that many aspects of our lives are random. Includin

I think memory shuts down when you sleep. So that it still feels like something to be sleeping, only we cannot recall it when we awake, because it is not persisted in memory. This is the same reason we cannot remember what it is like to be

What he says makes perfect sense to me, a person who thinks about these sorts of things in their spare time. They are simple and logical consequences of what we see. If academic philosophy isn't following it then perhaps it needs to ge
