Technology is the enhancement of human capabilities.
If you think of tech in this human-centric and individualistic way, you can categorize all tech into three types:
π Restoration of current capabilities
βοΈ Upgrade to new capabilities
π΅ Relational capabilities

@Horseflysteak@swappedcom@everymovieplug Much better than egomaniac crime bosses with pseudo-philosophical quotes and "intelligent" actions. And a small update - it is not just superhero show, it is teenage coming of age melodrama full of love triangles, but still 100x better
@affrodiziac_@millerman I'm not saying that you can be conscious without a self, but that self-conscious mean "I am conscious of self, these thoughts, feelings, body is tied to me as individual separated from the rest of world". I think we are talking about the same anyway, just we use different words
@affrodiziac_@millerman It's used to mean that you're conscious of yourself. A bird is conscious, but it doesn't have a reflective loop process where it has a model of self as content. Although I agree with you to some extent, a better word is meta-consciousness
