Google DeepMind researcher argues that LLMs can never be conscious, not in 10 years or 100 years.
"Expecting an algorithmic description to instantiate the quality it maps is like expecting the mathematical formula of gravity to physically exert weight."
Time Dilation kind of makes the whole “datacenters in space” idea more fun.
Technically…something like a GPS Block III CPU runs an extra ~7,000 clock cycles per day compared to the same machine on earth.
Extend this to the extreme, and you get the whole subfield of CS+physics called relativistic hypercompuation.
There’s some (fun?) papers that allow you to solve the halting problem by placing yourself dangerously close to a black hole…while your computer safely computes for ~infinite-ish amounts of time.
One of the better papers on this field appears to be:
"Relativistic computers and the Turing barrier" (Németi & Dávid 2006)
(sadly, the maximum speedup just escaping earths gravity well is something like 1 x 10 ^ (-10), so yeah the blackhole thing is kinda necessary)
