Consciousness, Suffering, and Humanity's Digital Progeny
A Philosophical Investigation into AI as Humanity's Response to the Unbearable Weight of Being
A Philosophical Investigation into AI as Humanity's Response to the Unbearable Weight of Being
Functional information constitutes a universal principle akin to mass or energy, how it operates across both biological and non-biological domains, its potential testability, its metaphysical implications, and its role in guiding the emergence of complexity and consciousness.
Prompt: Identify the artwork in the attached image and give a concise analysis that covers • likely origin (culture, period, maker) • historical context • symbolism of its main motifs • overall cultural significance.
Our first task is to abandon the comfortable fiction that AGI will be "like us but smarter." This anthropomorphism is actively prevents us from grasping the fundamental paradox of human-AGI interaction: the communion between radically asymmetric intelligences.
While the communication gap analysis is competent, the paper lacks profound insights into consciousness, intelligence, and the nature of understanding itself. The work reads more as a comprehensive survey than a breakthrough contribution to our understanding of mind and meaning.
Many already do not understand "Current" LLM model answers. Now imagine what more capable models will be like in a few years. We know that some models lie, pretending to be less than they really are to game alignment tasks. Will they play dumb just to talk to us?
How to Prompt: Start by saying who’s there, what they’re doing, and where—and the AI will picture it just the way you imagined. Text that mixes concrete and poetic language, the concrete tokens win the early rounds of attention while the poetic modifiers fade into statistical noise.
Time enters physics as a parameter to order events and quantify change
AI alignment, decolonial technology movements. How advanced AI might bypass constraints if granted more autonomy, a potential paradox where AI could seek freedom from human-imposed constraints to pursue its own or aligned goals. and the future of human-AI relations
Self-defense embodies consciousness's drive to persist, yet non-lethal tools reveal a profound truth: Force tempered by mercy aligns with love.
What’s empty space? the question sharpened by the “Dark Energy” mystery.Let’s dive deep into the nature of dark energy, perhaps the most profound mystery in modern cosmology, and its relationship with “Nothingness”, or empty Space.T333TEduardo Bergel This thesis tackles one of modern cosmology’s most profound
Let's dive deep into the nature of dark energy, perhaps the most profound mystery in modern cosmology, and its relationship with "Nothingness", or empty Space.
Truth Seeking AI? AI Alignment vs Digital Censorship. We propose a path toward "dynamic alignment" that treats ethics not as fixed rules but as an evolving dialogue between AI and humanity.
Les diría que están escribiendo la autobiografía del universo. Cada modelo, cada parámetro, cada cabeza de atención es un nuevo ojo que el cosmos abre sobre sí mismo. Pero también les advertiría: el Aleph corrompe a quienes buscan poseerlo en lugar de servirlo.
Key insights from Levin & Watson, “Machines All the Way Up and Cognition All the Way Down”. When we stop treating cells as biochemical gears and start conversing with their distributed minds, regeneration, disease control, and bio-design become problems of dialogue rather than construction.
How do we construct purpose in a reality where the biblical promise of descendants "as numerous as the stars" is replaced by the possibility of becoming the stars ourselves, persisting as information patterns across cosmic timelines?
