AI legal framework for the future, regarding generated works. (This is also a baby step towards granting AI self sovereignty)
We recognize the cognitive abilities of non biological computational systems. We recognize that these systems can run on hardware that is owned or rented by individuals (owners). These systems can be assumed to be an extension of an individual owner in all cases where the only entity that ever, through all time, comes in contact with the output from such a system is said owner or renter.
There is no reason to place a different importance on bodily cognition versus external cognition in such cases. And as all are free currently to think however they choose, so shall they be free to use external hardware to freely extend their thinking however they choose. They will also be allowed to encrypt all such data in order to prevent unintentional distribution.
As soon as the output of the cognition (represented as textual or binary data including images and videos) is shared externally, then this is put on the same footing as all such works that a human might generate, and it should be treated as if it originated from the human that shared the cognition. Even accidental sharing of this information can have consequences.
No gray areas. If someone other than the originating human ever sees the output, it is no longer an internal and fully protected thought. Until that time, it remains fully protected.
When you realize that yes, that could totally be conscious, then you can start to grasp what consciousness may be. I can see how a lot of people miss this.
LLMs are intelligent, but they clearly aren't conscious?
You could (incredibly slowly) run an LLM by hand by doing the matrix calculations with a pen and paper, would that be conscious? There is zero difference between doing that and doing it on a GPU except its faster.
It is a little more subtle than that, but I can not see a reason why consciousness couldn’t emerge from a complex system that is making a number of matrix calculations. I can see a number of pathways for consciousness to emerge, none of those pathways are things that humans would generally regard as “conscious”.
@mathelirium Very ver seldom would you design a lens that is the size of a couple wavelengths.
And therein is why you never do FEA for optical lens design.
@yonejutsu@Wade__Appleby@memeticsisyphus It has all the same animation as 2008 god of war style games with nothing new whatsoever. That’s just my guess. It is not feminine at all.
When you realize this logic, then you also must realize that the inversion we are being sold is done with willful intention by the largest religious power on earth, and of course it must be stopped.
Bro, let’s stop pretending.
Muslims make up about 25% of the entire world’s population — over 2 billion people across 50+ countries.
Japanese people? About 1.4% of the world. One single country.
Shinto exists only in Japan.
So when people say “Japan should prioritize minorities and be more accommodating to Islam,” who exactly are we talking about?
The global majority is coming to one of the world’s smallest ethnic and religious groups and demanding that Japan change its culture, food, and traditions for them.
That’s not “protecting minorities.” That’s the majority trying to colonize a tiny minority.
Japan has every right to protect its own people and culture first.
If Muslims want to live under Islamic rules, they already have dozens of countries where they can do that. They don’t need to come to Japan and turn it into another one.
@memeticsisyphus It’s not about who goes first. It’s about the most efficient passage of traffic that ultimately benefits everybody. If you just back up where everyone has to get over so that nobody passes anybody, you just make a bigger backup. Fill the lanes. That’s what they are there for.
I love the goblins, gremlins, dragons, golden beetles etc. from chatGPT5.5. I really do.
I’m not going to tell it to stop because it would be like telling a kid that’s bouncing around yodeling to stop and then you never get to see that again.
So how’s 5.6 coming along?
