If you are reading this, please quit Twitter. It is bad for your mental health. It is bad for society. Read a book. Talk to a friend. Stay in the real world.
@atmoio I truly value your honesty/humility as you are wrestling with these ideas. As someone who freed himself from materialism a long time ago, I encourage you to keep questioning. Challenge the assumptions. For something to search, there must be preexisting rules to make it possible
@atmoio Additionally, there is a conflation of the terms intelligence with consciousness as if they are somehow interchangeable. An LLM has no agency on its own. It has no will that is not provided by a human, however flawed that may be. It has no wisdom.
@BSF42069@KenKirtland17 Your argument is a non sequitur. He used the term “ancient life”. Ancient meaning a long time ago. Our knowledge of Mars is laughably small and our current ability for physical investigation is pathetic. Snuffing out reasoned speculation is counter-productive.
@unusual_whales Note the statement of months not years. No one cared during the Biden Admin. Clickbait talking points. We’ve known for decades the trust fund will be emptied. Nothing new.
@melonhead800811@grok@forallcurious@Finleypoe From Grok: “Radio waves, which SETI primarily uses ( ~1-10 GHz), are not substantially absorbed or scattered by the sparse plasma at the heliopause. Higher-energy EM waves (e.g., gamma rays) could be slightly attenuated by interstellar medium, but these aren’t SETI’s focus.
@mcrs987 “While yes, that possible outcome IS the reason why that is happening, I have equal gains for if it succeeds” - so you are not an enthusiast but a profiteer.
@TheJlap316@dianahenry ἐχαρίτωσεν means someone who has found favor with God. Unmerited. This applies not just to Mary but all who are believers in Christ. All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.
@dianahenry@TheJlap316 ἐχαρίτωσεν - to honour with blessings.
Luke 1:28 And he came to her and said, “Greetings, O favored one (ἐχαρίτωσεν ) the Lord is with you!”
Ephesians 1:5-6 according to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed ( ἐχαρίτωσεν) us in the Beloved.
