@alexchukovski@LinusEkenstam Avoiding AC at all costs is a religion in Germany. There was another religion recently (Why do we need email if we have fax machines), it bravely struggled for decades but finally died. But Anti-AC religion will be strong in Germany for next 30 years.
Still cannot pronounce "yes, genes have zero effect on intelligence" sentence, using indirect speech instead. And we understand why it is so difficult, to pronounce this sentence. Because it will be screenshoted and forever bound with your academic profile. You will not be just Sasha. You will be Sasha "Genes have zero influence" Gusev.
@beshkenadze Британские рекрутеры - особая тема. У нас в Германии с ними многие вообще не общаются из принципа. Я с ними общаюсь но они действительно какие-то наглые и тебе кажется всегда что они обманщики. Никогда от них не было толка.
@sheepdog85@OxuMor Да нормальные там цены, они соответствуют местными зарплатам. Цены высокие, зарплаты высокие, налоги низкие. В итоге выходит приблизительно как в Германии.
A hypothesis: exactly like there are people totally lacking artistic taste, there are people lacking understanding of what consciousness is. Yes, they are like zombies or rather biorobots. The are fine to live with in this world. They just sometimes annoy us, normal people, by saying in twitter that determinestic algorithm can be conscious, but this is the only harm from them.
@karlprosser@plainionist@TTrimoreau But, can it be on par with November 2025 Claude Code, at least? Honest question. My company allows Copilot only because of security.
Half of the twitter folks sincerely believe that an array sorting algorithm can also become conscious if it is complex enough. They just don't understand the concept of consciousness. Like, many people don't have artistic taste. Similarly, many people will never understand the concept of consciousness. It is fine, with both cases. We can live with those people in this world, we just don't need to try to explain then the concept of consciousness, to spare our time.
