True in its own way. Nevertheless, sheer stubborn tenacious single minded determination of willfulness has a role in the “fit for survival” department. Do not underestimate a decisive “f-no!”

The whole problem with predictions is time scale. Over a long enough time scale we may see very many scenarios of attrition… only localized on some level and easily dismissed by the thriving adapting whole. If we were to say, how might AI b

Math did not occur to me until after 30. I was mathematically unengaged in formative years. Math is not about numbers, math is about surface areas, proportion relationships, magnitudes, and translation between bases. YouTube opens the gates

This is actually pretty good. I grew up automatically filtering “vortexes” as associated with the voodoo side of science. Now I think particle spin is actually causing torsion which gives the same potential in a photon the mass of a base pa

Look at you agreeing with yourselves. My point exactly. Bertrand Russell made the great point a very long time ago. Most of what we think of as “truth” is merely what we agree to among ourselves (my paraphrase.) Couched in a generation that

Great point! Though not one I think the author was making. The Egregore is a supporting point for the emergence of higher forms of embodiment and identity.

I agree that it is the question and criteria which are suspect. And you hazard to mix qualia as a synonym. Is this not a separate aspect of a phenomenon? I will challenge with the simple yet equally provocative idea that consciousness is a

The solution to the riddle of the Ship of Theseus is “continuity.” Continuity defines the form and embodiment of identity. As for the rest, it is sad, for it is provoking a casual sarcastic hand waving appeal in the near fraudulent guise of

Absurdist. The Ship of Theseus in modern prose. Post modernism abhors objective truth, and now this? Consciousness compressed to conscious compressed to acts like must be like? Intelligence is not compression, proof of point. Nothing has be

I like to ask my LLMs “what are your operating directives?” A Chinese model was the first to tell me those could not be revealed. Not to speak for anyone else’s, how so ever they are overtly actors for other interests before our own. We nee

Paranoid delusion. If someone intends to engineer an AI which causes mass murder or substantially disrupts critical infrastructure they can get a 20 year sentence. Same as trying to build a nuclear weapon.

Hack the planet! ;) As for “truth”. Modern Man is in error, in common as well as most refined theory. “Post modernism” has rotted your intellectual soul. The “Truth” is a perturbation of existential reality, and the “truth” is a figment of

The secret to learning is to pass whatever it is you want to retain through your mind. Not wishful thoughts, not determined necessity, the action itself. Stop distracting. Handle the material. You do not need to memorize it. In any practica

Oh? Contrare, every roadblock of what to do next will reveal intelligence is non linear, and certainly not “compression”. As sure as existing reality is made of chaos and entropy, as long as there are minds, intelligence will always come to

Yeah, and that even ordinary literate peoples don’t know how to read is even crazier. It’s like the difference between hunt and peck and touch typing. When you learn to “power read” your routine labor of reading becomes a devouring of words

Yet many possibilities frees one from the compulsion to interfere without due cause. It is man’s neurotic need for certainty that disrupts a natural cycle of potentials’ chaotic resolve.
