It's intriguing that some parts of brains are conscious, some are not. What's the difference?

It is a taboo subject, but the structure that makes apes 'human' is actually a very small area of the brain. =3

Branch making and memory?

Sounds right. I wonder why it is so hard to notice in regular everyday consciousness.

I think we're experiencing the world like seeing through a pinhole. It's all too much to take in and process, so we've got most of it filtered out just to keep it manageable. But, that mental filter doesn't stop all of reality from interacting with us, and it's possible to remove or tweak the filter, clearly.

DMN starts when you are doing something trivial and start thinking about something completely unrelated.

It's kinda like falling asleep, except more coherent.

When I read the title I expected some kind of satire. I wonder if author considered giving the AI a penance.

Maybe if it wrote "I will not delete production database again" a million times, it would prevent such situations in future?

Cool, maybe we could make CRISPR elves?

Humans tend to confabulate when asked "why you did X", funny how LLMs are pretty much the same.

I guess it's a matter of time until TVs include GSM modem for ads and DRM.

Cars already do, and the solution is to remove the modem.

If a car is equipped with 'eCall' from the factory in the EU a missing modem is seen as a safety defect and fails the yearly inspection which is required for road use.

The end game is Zuckerberg sitting alone in his bunker and vibe-ceo'ing all of facebook.

He'll also have to be vibe-eating because nobody is vibe-growing food any more. Everybody's too busy vibe-vacationing.

Imagine ideal future, and consider if it's achievable without AI.

Being forced to work is not much different from slavery, I would rather roll the dice than keep the status quo.

Do you celebrate people who persevere despite despite their hardships?

Ability to persevere is also wired in.

If you pull this thread to it's conclusion, then nothing is worth celebrating. Just law of physics doing their thing.
