  1. Past hour
  2. Maybe we should start thinking of electricity as a form of life. In this sense, a calculator is as alive as a protozoa.
  3. I don’t think consciousness is an emergent phenomenon. I think the human sounding outputs of these AI models trick us into thinking it is sentient but it’s not. Living things are ontologically unique from machines and computers. This is obvious to me. Life self organizes and is rooted in primordial natural intelligence. Machines aren’t they are essentially organized minerals by humans which require human development. They don’t have sentient capacity. Like a rock, or electrical cable. I think it would be sloppy ontological categorization to place calculators and dogs in the same category of potential for sentience. Dogs are living things. A calculators is rocks with electricity. The complexity, and primordial self organizing power of animals especially those with brains and central nervous systems is not that of a calculator.
  4. But simultaneously reality having no meaning doesn't necessarily induce chaotic behavior or anarchy. Most prefer a more calm relaxed non violent or chaotic atmosphere/environment 🤔

    That is actually nicely said; so true.
  7. The only thing i disagree with him on is militarizing Europe. A europe that uses the u.s. military as defense would be a much better geopoliticsl strategy, lessening Russian resolve and making it more appealing to trade with from other countries that it has historically exploited, essentially the rest of the world. A European army would cause fear in Russia, nationalism, resolve. A European army could also wind up striking Russia. De-militarized leads to more stability, when, you don't need it (U.S. defense). The only reason Europe does need to militarize is because the u.s. is abandoning it.

    @Leo Gura That makes sense. My deepest trips seemed so final and total I wanted to come back to duality. I realized I was infinite and total and complete. But, my ego found that very disturbing. Yet, that still doesn’t explain why this particular dream. I’d like to be able to zoom out and swipe through other potential dreams, types of physics and dimensions. Just to see what’s options there are. Like, being to orgasmic carpets rubbing each other in a void or something for a bit.
  9. It can in the way dogs are sentient. You do imagine a difference between dogs and calculators. Will AI be more like a dog or a calculator? We don't yet know. Do not bring the solipsism issue into this. That's a category error. We are not speaking of that level.
  10. Because it means you can't leave yourself alone; you can't help but directly blame yourself for things, or voluntarily expose yourself to things that stimulate your sensitivities like sad music, videos of kittens abandoned in garbage cans lol, or anything.

    To escape Omniscience. You are dreaming in order to gain relief from being God. Being God is too easy and boring. You are so bored you want excitement and drama. That is the purpose of life. Life is a vacation from being God. When you are God, you want to be human, and when you are human, you want to be God. God is human for the same reason humans play video games.
  12. After this video, you still support centralization via socialism? Did you watch the entire video?
  13. Gosh, this shit is so interconnected. By know there is hard to say one thing in the Geopolitical arena is isolated. For sure this all connects with Israel,Congo,Tech Companies, AI... Survival is so complex.
  14. Today
  15. Historically we know what happens internally with a Nation that spend their way down into Wars. France Revolution for example. Was not the case that all the invesment of Foreign wars weakened it inside and the discontent from its citzens got to the point to the Bastille situation? I am reducing a bit here since there may be other factors but is not this one of many factors? How lond can one spend energy outwards till the inner system collapse? ( I am making a parallel with a person for exemple spend energy figth outside drama that end up draining the body capacity to have energy for itself
  16. Helps Canada too. Apparently Alberta Separatist bots are way less now.
  17. @Leo Gura Yes we will never know. On the other hand you still claim that when God starts to imagine only one can be sentient? So even if other beings appear in a current human experience, behind that there is zero reference to a sentient God which dreams that character? In your worldview if you are playing right now this human experience, an LLM never can be really sentient. You can never ask that question. @r0ckyreed

    It’s confusing why an infinite illusion is appearing as a logical, causal, physical survival scheme which involves emotions and suffering. The fact it’s an infinite illusion is something I’ll need more contemplation and awakening on. Though, to the degree I have had this awakening I am afraid of its implications. I’ve never had a complete awakening in “Why” and I have never heard a satisfactory answer from Leo on “Why” this way and not some other way.
  19. It clearly helps Ukraine. Because the only chance Ukraine has is to bog Russia down into an endless war that Russia cannot win. Then Russia will get tired and quit. Russia cannot keep fighting an endless war. Ukraine is Afghanistan 3.0 At some point Putin will retire. He's getting old.
  20. You are seeing the twisted force of survival play out in Israel as a whole in real time. Israel is drowning in unconscious survival. Notice how that ends in evil.

    Sometimes there are topics that sound unrelated but I can make them relate. For example the Survival of the Christianity Institution may be due to this process that this guy talk about. Is a lot of talk but I could understand this since young age. Not with this level of explanatory power. But deep down I knew that there was something dark going on in the system,being it family dyamics,school system,companies,jobs etc.. We are born inside of a system that have a lot of contradictions. This guy put a finger upon it.
  22. @Schizophonia why is crying hurting yourself? Problematic? It's behaviour not character?
  23. Bruh. . . Inappropriate.

  27. @Karmadhi I think this is an election-driven move by Netanyahu. Anyway I also didn't like the way they chose to show their criticism. https://x.com/netanyahu/status/2109725618501775681?s=20
