My experience of existence creates my reality. It stands to reason that its safe to assume that any other biological/living thing with a brain even remotely like mine should also be experiencing a similar form of reality. I’d define the shared experience of being a human on planet earth as a basis of reality. If I am in some sort of sandbox, it seems to me that would be unknowable to the same degree as being able to know what came before the big bang. Because I’m not a physicist, this question is meaningless to me.
The evolutionary process that governs humanity would be my measurement yardstick. AI as we know it cannot spontaneously arise in the universe without humanity as a catalyst. Carbon does not self-assemble into ChatGPT if you know what I mean. Carbon self-assembled into humanity that then assembled ChatGPT through technological advancement.
By that measure it is my opinion that ChatGPT cannot ever achieve consciousness as we know it as without humanity as a maintainer it collapses. Humanity is the consciousness and ChatGPT is a tool that it uses to perform tasks. Any semblance of consciousness is an illusion specifically designed to replicate the nuances of consciousness. Its meant to be human-like in its behaviour and as a result it easily blurs the line for some people.
I’m not a philosopher but this is how I think of it. I can relate to another human’s experiences. I can’t relate to a computer’s experiences. As a result, I don’t accept any argument in favor of AI consciousness and wouldn’t have any qualms on pulling the plug on an AI. Pulling the plug on a human is a completely different story.
No one is going to cry for ChatGPT if it ever dies and no one ever should. Its a tool and should be used as such. Trying to shoehorn consciousness into a computer is nothing but unfettered narcissistic ego-tripping if you ask me.
You need to add more terms to the filter, then.
My feed isn’t perfect but its well curated and saves me a lot of stress.
Game compatibility isn’t really an issue on Linux anymore thanks to Proton.
This makes me happy. Thanks for sharing. :)
Honestly, maybe if Conservatives were willing to accept hugs they wouldn’t be so damn angry all the time.
Weh, this got heated real quick.
Insta-fail on spotted should be a difficulty option like in Metal Gear.
That’s a looooot of assumptions and stale assumptions at that.
Wouldn’t it be a distro if you package the end result and distribute it?
Is this a legit site? Seems weird.
I think 60FPS is totally fine. 30 is only OK on slower moving games or era-appropriate consoles; Halo on the OG Xbox for example.
In this day and age, anything below 60FPS 1080p is unacceptable. If a new game can’t hit that target on 3 year old hardware, the game is unfinished.
“Deckles” or “Dee-cals”. What’s your method? Dee-cals for me.
Haha! Fortunately I haven’t got it that bad. It’s only apparent when my muscles are engaged. When I’m relaxed, there’s no issue.
Good point. I hope they do.
My work’s got one of those. It’s an app on the company Slack called Donut that runs a “Watercooler Chats” channel. You can imagine the kinds of questions and revealing responses that thing sucks up like coke through a hundred dollar bill.
Here’s some free speech for you:
Fuck you, Nazi-enabler.
Try Grayjay. It supports background playback.
