Contemplate: How are affiliate links theft? Theft has countless forms, throughout much of history all that mattered is whether something was tied to something/someone (as opposed to being free game) and whether it was easy for you to acquire it from someone else or not. These are degrees of separation between you and the thing you want, considered purely pragmatically. But to truly identify theft ask yourself: What are the resources being used? Who is in possession of less because of what you did? There are other questions, but those are the 2 fundamental questions.

Well it's not that simple, even if you argue that everything copies something else, the way that AI copies the material it's trained on is still much more direct than what humans do. Plus you directly used the other person's work as your tool by putting it into the AI.

So... am I missing something obvious? Why is OP literally posting obviously AI-generated things as if he wrote them? I know that redditors aren't able to tell, but in general, the way the post is structured is a dead giveaway.

Wherever you look, there's only winning or losing [which is to say, evil], and it's utterly unfair and miserable. The way the universe is structured, the only way to live is to never lose, to completely avoid the pain of losing. You know deep down that you are at least close to losing because of the words that you hear.

It doesn't, that just sounds appealing to stage blue people.

I can't zoom in enough on the pictures but it seems Alan Turing isn't on the list despite enabling the existence of this list. Goethe isn't either. If I was ignorant I'd take extreme issue with below-average-intelligence people such as wittgenstein and elon musk not being included.

Actually nuts if this works.

Could everything be wrong in all directions infinitely? Note that I do not mean "Is it the case that the world is wrong in every way, or that what we're currently in is hell, or what we're currently in is Satan's domain." But COULD a reality exist, which is an ultimate reality encompassing every conceivable layer of being, which is infinitely wrong in all directions indefinitely and in the most limitless way possible? e.g. a reality in which the worst possible violation and agony is happening simultaneously in all dimensions with escape being deductively impossible? If you've watched the deleted whatifalthist video you might have been shocked about how much suffering you can be in when you take a high-end-potency psychedelic such as ayahuasca. He claims to have experienced infinities in hell in that trip, and that hell is so infinitely horrible that it's unimaginable from our current perspective. Your being, allegedly, would crumble under the level of suffering. Imagine we are the shattered parts of a mind that suffered so much it was broken. In that scenario, we could realize the suffering is meaningless and ultimately transcend it. The argument that qualia is an illusion since suffering is just a material event wouldn't help since materialism is an illusion, but at the same time we could make our minds go beyond the suffering. On the other hand, If everything is infinitely wrong in all directions, nothing can be right, and so nothing can be overcome since the new thing you can put into place is entirely pointless given that it's just the same metaphysical material that stretches in all directions infinitely.

Why is reality structured in a way that allowed this? Perfect is defined in opposition to something imperfect. If everything was perfect, nothing would be, and calling it so would just be an ego-mechanism. You reduced suffering to an emotion created by evolution but at the same time think that the words "infinite mosaic" can't be reduced to the functioning of the brain, and actually do describe full metaphysical reality, at least to some extent? Why can't it be any other way, why is the specific way that reality is, necessary? This sounds like it runs into the same problem as materialism, how do you have knowledge of the thing-in-itself?

This is hell. The messengers of the devil have one purpose and one purpose only: shame you for recognizing that this existence, that you are in right now in order to read this comment, is in fact hell, and convince you that it's all somehow your fault.

I had a dream that there was an alien object involving potential dangerous consequences that was being investigated by people, including me, somewhere slightly underground. There was a detective in my dream I was talking to. I forgot most of my interactions with him but he told me not to do anything with the object until he is aware of the new findings. The object was related to a black pen that could alter the air around it but also worked on a piece of paper. In another dream, I walked past some people, did something to anger a public couple, then entered a red tube-like corridor which separates that "outside" world from a sprawling, complex maze, which requires complex actions, extreme perseverance and books to get to the bottom of. My friend was in the red (or somewhat red but that was the memorable color) two-way hallway leading to it and sounded worried. ChatGPT interprets the things about the maze as me thinking I will need knowledge, skills, perseverance and effort in my life.

No words for anyone impressed by Chris Langan, lol. Plus IQ doesn't even measure intelligence in the first place and the arguments used by it's defenders are horrible, they can easily be proven wrong, most of all Chris Langan who thinks "Well you'd rather hire the 200 IQ person than the 80 IQ person so IQ is legit." is a valid argument.

I haven't. Not necessarily because this is wrong or anything but simply because if you observe a leaf falling, for example, you can tell yourself "My ego and my projections can imagine that it fell another way." but at the same time it fell exactly the way you observed. I could have moved it, let's say, and my mechanism to move it would be the same as my ego observing the actual fall. Why is God completely unable to make things different? Is there more to the statement "Everything is perfect" than the misuse of language? "Perfect" is defined in contrast to something else. Claiming everything is perfect is an ego mechanism. The true meaning of this true could be a true statement, but it's still an ego mechanism.

Potentially some of the corniest cringiest "poetry" I've ever read. Keep relying on a misinformation-prone 80 IQ computer to decide which illegal drugs to further rot your brain with.

ADA is the best technique for hyper-realistic memorable dreams and lucid dreaming.

No spirit, only body. There will always only be body.

What is the contradiction entailed by claiming this is just a more generalized but still narrow AI?

I'm not sure why you would think it's understandable to avoid historical abuse. No human alive can prove that the Jews would face someone else like Hitler if Israel wasn't re-made. You're claiming that Palestinians didn't play a part in the Holocaust which is obviously true, but at the same time, what about the part where they are interacting with Israel and not responding like adults to the Jews taking their homeland back? You can't argue that Hamas act like adults, you can't argue that the Palestinians who literally salute hitler act like adults either. Notice how, if a Jew inside of the US happened to wrong another citizen and that citizen went on to become a nazi, no leftist would justify that (before oct 7th at least) but somehow the nazis in palestine are not using their own free will when they salute hitler? If you think the Jews should have their homeland back to "avoid historical abuse" and think that that should happen realistically, and acknowledge that the people preventing them are genocidal openly, anti-semitic etc... then why is Israel in the wrong? Not that Israel is doing no wrong, I'm simply saying that defending the other side when they meet none of the extreme standards that are applied to every action that Israel does (no matter how absolutely trivial compared to the atrocities committed by the US and britain) is very difficult.

Eggs and energy drinks are mental illness cure-alls.

Not quite sure what that means but it sounds pretty funny.

You have 0 dedication to success. Take all the silly bullshit going on in your mind and throw it in the bin. Then look at yourself in the mirror and say "Okay this is the next clear goal, no bullshit, no excuses, no more generating nonsensical trash then swallowing my own trash, instead, this is what I want to achieve."

That's an example I knew about, I'm not excluding anything else, just commenting on what is. But thanks for letting me know that Ulysses centers heavily on womanhood, I'll push that book way down the reading list now. I don't need to describe to you the absolute and utter disconnect between the idealization of women in books compared to the actual experience a male could have with them today. Maybe that idealization started during the romantic period but if you read shakespeare's sonnets you will see that the level of woman-worship is borderline nuts. An incredible amount of media you can consume is completely dedicated to pretending that the bloodthirstiness of women that Nietzsche appears to be the first to bring up out of the Europeans of the last 300 years, does not exist.

Shakespeare tends to be about women. And a lot of books deal with a male's relation with a woman. Shakespeare and Poe will never be first rate intellects because they had a too optimistic view of women. Nietzsche is the opposite deal since he goes too far when saying women are inferior (AKA when talking about that topic), but at the same time he prefaces his criticism, the only criticism he would ever go on to apologize for, with saying that it's only his truths being told. A lot of bad books tend to be about women too, if you let the mainstream tell you what to read you'll be reading tons about romance. As for the music, that just means you probably should find different music to listen to, or already have but are exaggerating.

Brutal. No clue what he thinks he's accomplishing by throwing red herrings.
