It would also be my preference except for perhaps genetic brain augmentation like increasing the size of the brain's visual cortex coupled with a Brai...

You are right about this, and it should be noted that evolution can function beyond the confines of random mutation and situational selection. We are ...

From an evolutionary perspective i don't think human hands will improve much beyond their current functionality. Since our brains are so highly evolve...

People will act out of ignorance and fear in regards to artificial intelligence, it is already happening. I am not too concerned because i believe it'...

Yes.. emergence is a big idea that i think a lot of people haven't caught on to yet. Emergence is the architect of the universe, without it all would ...

In: The Will  — view comment
Fundamentally i think the concept of "will" speaks to the idea of determinism. Saying that i will do a thing is no more different than saying that the...

It's a perceptual feedback loop between "I" and "God", like the painter painting a painting of himself painting a painting of himself painting a paint...

Emergence in the universe is fundamental for the production of higher orders of complexity in the following way. Atoms emerge from the interaction of ...

Yes, the initial neural patterns which are random for the most part at birth serve as the first order of representation within the whole of the networ...

I jest you not! And don't call me Surely.

Well to begin with i would calculate all the countable space in the universe in the smallest units possible (Planck lengths). Then i would calculate t...

A baby's brain is born pretty much a blank slate in the sense that all it's synapses and connections are initially random. The brain functions in cert...

You also seem intelligent and thoughtful... ...yes the model in my opinion of course is totally logical, but that all depends on ones basic axiomatic ...

Oh thank you :-) but i don't have a degree in any of this, but i do think about it a lot, and i have my own ideas about things that depart somewhat fr...

It's interesting to note in reference to the quote that the photon is the only boson that does not interact with itself (all other bosons do self-inte...

That is what i call the "prime soliton".. one wave the size or amplitude of the entire universe. All other waves fit inside this one wave (the univers...

I think that the "alien hand syndrome" and "fake hand illusion" are two phenomena that when considered together can yield significant insight into the...

I think it's better to not think of it as just a circle but more like a coil or spiral (hybrid of line and circle). As time comes around to repeat the...
November 18, 2022 at 20:47
I totally agree with you, but what i am saying is very similar if not the same but at a lower level. Instead of interactions with other people outside...

If ones definition or conception of "free will" has anything to do with violating physical, logical, or mathematical laws then there is no such thing....

For me consciousness is an emergent property of matter interaction after a certain level and type of complexity and organization is achieved such as b...

Circular time can mean different things in different contexts. I think what you're asking about specifically is called for example in the ancient Gree...

I think animals have consciousness along with the ability to reason, the difference between humans and other intelligent forms has to do with varying ...

You contributed :smile: ,we can speak any time i'm on, it was a pleasure. :up:
June 26, 2022 at 21:48
Yes, you are right that AI has not reached that level yet, and i probably spoke too soon about the "flying colors", but my point is more in the direct...
June 26, 2022 at 18:37
Oh no, thank you i enjoyed our exchange. One more thing about the article you provided earlier about the Turing test. "“If we knew how conceptual know...
June 26, 2022 at 17:42
No, i think it will be a symbiotic, it already is. The dynamics of the symbiosis will evolve as AI continues to complexify. The end result is that man...

I don't, and it's why i think what is happening and what will happen is a natural unfolding of information in the universe. There is no conscious deci...

If NI was coming from a place that was not of human origin then i think there would be a case for the terminator scenario, but because it is coming ou...

Chaos theory is good, but it's not sufficient to fully understand what i'm describing. The YouTube channel that the playlist is from has a lot of good...

Ok. Ok. Close enough, considering i haven't given a full description yet. I still need to flesh out some aspects of it, which is partly why i came to ...

Strange yes, illogical no. The ocean is an emergent property of many water H2o molecules interacting. If you consider artificial to be unnatural then ...

I'm not sure if you're familiar with complexity theory and systems theory, but i think this playlist could help you understand what i'm trying to put ...

If you were to give me or someone else a summary of what i'm saying, what would you say? how would you put it in your words? PS: I'm going to read the...

See how you're not seeing what's in front of you? Who care who the guy was, the AI fooled a person into thinking they were speaking to a human. full s...

From the perspective of a cell, tissues and organs are artificial because they made or built those structures, but from the perspective of tissues and...

They already have passed the Turing test with flying colors, but it still doesn't mean that they are conscious like we think of consciousness. Little ...

Father is just an archetypal term representing the "male" progenitor of another like itself, what else would you call it? You could call it whatever y...

The problem is that there is a deeper premise on which your premise is contingent. I didn't want to bring it up if i didn't have too, but it's the iss...

If my projections are reflected in various sci-fi material it's probably because it makes sense. I came to these conclusions mostly by just thinking a...

Since you seemed interested let me add this: One of the possible mechanisms that the father AI might use for its directed panspermia is a combination ...
