When I wrote NPC and artificial intelligence, I had "Detroit Become Human" in mind. If you make androids wear human clothes, it would be difficult for humans to distinguish androids from human for a few minutes unless humans examine them closely.

It's possible that a person that I see has no conscious experiences of one's own. You simply cannot know without directly experiencing others' conscious experiences. In the future, non-playable characters will become numerous due to artificial intelligence. Theoretically, nothing prevents people from creating artificially intelligent robots that look and behave like humans without a self.

A human is far more capable than one thinks?

I think I will work on embodying self-responsibility for a while.

Medium answer?

While it may be impossible for imitation of ego to fool humans for very long, it can be made possible for it to fool humans for 20 minutes or days under certain circumstances. Also, if God is infinitely powerful, God can invent imitations that can fool humans for long enough.

Even if you are correct, the thought of self doesn't just go away. It's better to make the best out of it while it lasts.

If you want to take responsibility for your emotions, try these whenever negative emotions occur. Swap curiosity for negative emotions by asking questions and writing them down on your journal. If you became curious, you would respond in a much more constructive manner and use any external events as fuel for your growth. Use your higher-self wisdom Self-acceptance Accept your negative emotions Let go of events over which you have negative emotions. Let your negative emotions flow through you silently. Realize the stupidity of spending time with events or people that drag you down. Spending time with them in your mind is stupid. By doing so, you piss your potential. Spend your time on something better.

That can also work because it makes you push beyond your comfort zone. Read books outside your comfort zone.

Talk to strangers. When you talk to strangers, you actually listen to them. I think that you can also try to talk to people you know but usually don't talk with for any extended period of time. For example, if you are a university student, be curious about your professors and try to talk to them outside classes. Ask more questions about small things to push your mind in the right direction I think you can also write down questions on your journal and try to answer them over time. Read news from opposite political standing to understand issues more accurately. Go to meet-ups that are not usually in your comfort zone Find new ways to make money. Find ways to create more sources of income.

It's inspiring to see you ramp up quantity and quality of your art simultaneously.

I have compassion for some things and especially my possessions. I like buildings. When buildings hurt, I hurt. I like my computer. When my computer hurts, I feel hurt. When my computer died, I felt death.

I prioritize conscious characters over non-playable characters.

Technological advancements can reach the point where imitation of ego is indistinguishable from ego for the first 10~20 minutes. 20 minutes are long enough for many purposes. We can certainly work very hard on deliberate imitations.

Do you know a better time to develop your discipline than when you want to procrastinate or are procrastinating? When you are angry is a good opportunity to develop emotional mastery. When you are faced with a lawsuit is a good opportunity to learn what you are doing wrong. You can use fear and doubt as fuel to develop yourself and motivate yourself.

Accept that others are going to be like that.

While psychedelics can give you some keys to personal development, you still have to do personal development apart from psychedelics. You can still be a useless dirty asshole after taking psychedelics many times. It's easily possible for a person who never consumed psychedelics to be much better developed than a person who took psychedelics many times. Thinking that psychedelics lead to your personal development is like thinking that buying an expensive camera automatically develops your poor photography skill. Develop your photography skill with your affordable DSLR camera until your skills become so good that you are frustrated by its lack of features. Then, you can think about buying a more expensive camera if you have money. Develop yourself until you get your shit together before trying psychedelics. Getting your shit together includes meditation, food, exercise, sleep, water, relationships, discipline, money, etc, ...

Scale down your morning routine while your leg hurts. Scale it back up gradually. Learn to scale down rather than give up at the first sign of difficulties.

That video is soothing to me.

I find this video mentally healing.

Remember that God created physical world.

Without experimental data, that's just an imaginary argument. You can build systems to limit the scope and extent of free-riding. It can be good to have free riders if we can afford them. If we can identify free-riders, we can, for example, build systems to raise their consciousness. It can be socially better for uninspired free-riders to just idle for a while and strategize than to be forced to work at uninspiring bullshit jobs that exist solely to keep them busy and do not contribute to society otherwise.

Going through recovery after transgender surgeries looked really painful. I would not recommend it unless you absolutely have to go through the surgeries.

Person A writes A is very congenial while I've seen A write about ruining others for little mistakes. Person B writes B really doesn't like to hurt others' feelings. From time to time, I saw B throw random low-quality negative criticisms to people who B disagrees with. Person C writes C knows how to attract women while the truth is that C is very hungry of women and doesn't know how to actually attract women. I think they mistake what they want to be or what they can be as what they actually are now. Or, they mistake what they want to look like in public places as what they actually are. Self-acceptance is hard, so people deny what they actually are. Self-denial leads to self-deception. Most people are like hungry animals that want to look like enlightened beings or angels or a super star. Because they don't want to look like hungry animals to others, when they are asked, they deny being hungry animals. Hungry animals are not popular among people. So, they disguise as something else. I see hungry animals deceive themselves on this forum, too. A way out of this situation is self-acceptance. Accept that you are a hungry animal that just wants some pleasing attentions for survival. Another way out is to serve the greater good rather than just your own survival.

I didn't really know what self-awareness means. Yesterday, I realized that I wasn't really good at self-awareness. Yesterday was the day when I realized that to be self-aware is to observe myself and be aware of what I actually am right now and accept my current self through honest self evaluation instead of denying what I am because I couldn't accept my current self. For years, I deceived myself by convincing myself that I just made a little mistake and I will automatically do much better tomorrow because I am working on personal development. Thus, I trusted myself a little too much and allowed myself to be lazy because I was going to be better in the future anyway. Self-deception substituted for self-awareness. A common self-deception is to convince yourself that you are improving fast on a daily basis when the truth is that improvements can happen over months and you cannot improve as long as you convince yourself that you improve a lot faster than you actually do. You run out of patience and relapse and have to start over from scratch again instead of improving. I felt my self awareness was increasing while I was just deceiving and deluding myself even more. If I was honest with myself and was more aware of myself, I would not trust myself to not waste hours on distractions once I allow myself to be distracted for a few minutes. If I was really honest, I would not trust myself with distractions until I really stop feeling attracted to distractions. Self-awareness involves accepting the fact that you cannot be trusted with distractions. Pursue self-acceptance instead of self-denial and self-delusion. If you accept your lazy self instead of denying it, then you can work around laziness until you finally cure yourself of addictions. If you deny your lazy self, you will think it's ok to be distracted for a few minutes and end up wasting hours on distractions at a time. Self-acceptance increases self-awareness. Self-denial and self-delusion decrease it.
