Date: December 20th, 2025 9:44 AM Author: Razzle-dazzle Disrespectful Sanctuary Deer Antler I doubt other intelligent species, especially ones more intelligent than us get stuck on all of this bullshit--from mysticism and religion to bad philosophy. Even stuff like obsession with getting a unified physics theory as a ONE TRUE ONTOLOGY is laughably simian and primitive. Guarantee you other intelligences get AI much sooner and cleaner than we did. It is more likely they would see cognition as modular from the start, not tie identity so tightly to thinking, and not fear replacement or fetishize "inner experience" as sacred. A much smarter species likely would build AI FIRST before a lot of other things we have done, then let it help with everything else--avoiding half of our deadends entirely.

Date: December 20th, 2025 10:35 AM Author: Spectacular range messiness We are the only species we know of that has consciousness, at least at such an amplitude. Why wouldn’t we be obsessed with it?

|
Date: December 20th, 2025 11:22 AM Author: Razzle-dazzle Disrespectful Sanctuary Deer Antler Yeah good point. That we have it to this degree and can't explain it fully makes it interesting, but it gets primitive when we decide its something special about humans or that it is something mystical or requires extra physics. But also it isn't even that much of a mystery anymore. Most of what is missing is cross-level modeling. Most of the pieces are there at this point. Aside from the hard problem, which comes more from bad question design. Once you see consciousness as an internal control interface tied to self modeling under irreversible stakes operating under a closed system that feeds back into itself, the question can really collapse into something more like "why does this architecture require an internal perspective". The question "why feels at all" only seems profound, because its the type of thing that results in ontological vertigo from brushing up against the limits of understanding.

Date: December 20th, 2025 1:31 PM Author: Razzle-dazzle Disrespectful Sanctuary Deer Antler non human apes were pushed out of the jungle into open savannahs with dangerous megafauna which pushed them into dependence on cooperation, delayed rewards and outcomes heavily dependent on coordination. Gesture and immediate signaling aren't sufficient in such environments. You need coordination before action.
also it isn't true that non human apes haven't evolved. they evolved in different directions than hominid species, but there have been definite morphological changes. |

Date: December 20th, 2025 1:51 PM Author: canary affirmative action "Guarantee you other intelligences get AI much sooner and cleaner than we did" -- cool, tell me more about these "other intelligences."
I don't know what consciousness is and I don't know if there is an "infinite." If anything, we are probably not capable of knowing The Truth of reality and existence. It is already crazy to consider that everything in existence has the same basic building blocks and that somehow collections of protons, neutrons, and electrons (and their shared building blocks) underly everything from DNA to rocks to this computer I'm typing on. It seems that there is some sort of underlying source to all of the underlying building blocks. A "field" or whatever we want to call it. There is a great mystery to this that should awe us, not make us think we know everything (or can know everything.)
I agree with you in a sense that there is too much woo woo around consciousness and qualia, but I think that physical reductionism does not actually rule out something "greater" than what we can see and understand. Especially given that everything emerges from the same building blocks. Just my two cents. |
|
Date: December 20th, 2025 1:58 PM Author: Razzle-dazzle Disrespectful Sanctuary Deer Antler I don't think we are capable of knowing a one ultimate truth or that there is one or that we can know everything either. Our models are always incomplete. I still think the metaphysical stoner vertigo people get into over consciousness is misplaced. It is complex sure. But we are closer to understanding it than most think, and it likely doesn't require any exotic physics. It can likely be modeled as well as other complex systems in the near future. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5812453&forum_id=2,#49525593) |
|
Date: December 20th, 2025 2:02 PM Author: canary affirmative action Yeah and I'm saying it doesn't matter. Even if it is entirely material in nature, the reality of nature seems far more mysterious and incredible than we can fathom.
I guess I'm saying that "it's just atoms and quarks moving around" actually doesn't dissuade me (or many, many people) from thinking "who cares, if anything this makes me more convinced that there is something Greater than us going on." |
|
Date: December 20th, 2025 2:05 PM Author: Razzle-dazzle Disrespectful Sanctuary Deer Antler I don't think it is "just atoms and quarks". I think the models we have are way incomplete. Most of the mass-energy in the universe is in dark sectors. But I think the underlying system can be rich and complicated in a way that can't be easily modeled or reduced and still not be "Something Greater" in the mystical sense.

|
Date: December 20th, 2025 2:11 PM Author: canary affirmative action Yeah I mean talking with you is actually kind of pointless because you have made your conclusion that "there isn't anything greater" and have also clearly imbibed a lot of horseshit from "scientists" who basically just sit in rooms doing math equations all day and no actual empirical work.

Date: December 20th, 2025 6:13 PM Author: Carnelian irradiated becky The thing that bothers me the most is the process by which I came to inhabit this body. Why was I born me, and not someone else?
Assuming 1. Many more complex mammals have some degree of consciousness. 2. My consciousness was not inherently destined to be a human, and i could have been a dolphin, dog, cow, etc.
Then what are the odds that my subjective being was (un)fortunate enough to be a human? The odds of that are insane. |
