Periodic reminder that I have super-opto-qualia

The experience of seeing things is extremely vivid for me. If I close my eyes and imagine an apple it is nothing at all like actually seeing an apple.

If they're the same that means you don't have visual qualia and I pity you.

Who says what you're experiencing right now is anywhere near what the original humans experienced as consciousness?

[quetzal_rainbow @quetzal_rainbow]

My answer to simulation hypothesis is that simulations of me to the level of consciousness are rare because it's literally the worst way to spend compute if you want to learn anything about Earth civilization

Building AI is an existential risk, to discourage AI risk we must be able to hedge against it, to hedge against the extinction of humanity we must have counterparties who survive humanity, to have counterparties that survive humanity we must build AI

@birdpathy liability insurance doesn't internalise x-risk for the same reason prediction markets can't estimate it, it's an inherently one-sided bet because the other side won't have the endurance to collect on their insurance

@owprimrose Yes, chess is a roguelike and it's not fun: opening books are pointless memorization

(I like Chess960 more)

[bird @birdpathy]
