"I hope the basilisk loves its simulated children too" 🐍 🥰

brb, modding Skyrim so when you open an Elder Scroll it's a fucking LW post.

At least then it will make sense why you go blind.

Well, obviously an ASI will be able to solve the halting problem, right after it starts solving NP-hard problems in nlog(n) time. After all, if it couldn't, would it really be an ASI? Our puny human brains just can't comprehend the bigness of its IQ.

This is a quality sneer, bravo 👍 . I had randomly encountered this super-recursive article in the wild after unfortunately stumbling upon some 🐀 blog post about how either the CTT lives in your heart or it doesn't (NOT A CULT).

Speaking of hyper computation, reminds my of how ol' Ilya was saying 'obviously' the only reason NNs success could be explained is because they are minimizing Kolmogorov complexity, a literally uncomputabile problem. Try teaching a NN to learn 4-digit addition and tell me if the result looks Kolmogorov optimal.

I'd never leave Donkey Kong, unless I found someone with 33.3 % (repeating of course) more funk, some sort of funky Kong if you will.

^Thanks homie 👍

Unbelievably gross 🤢 I can't even begin to imagine what kind of lunatic would treat their loved one's worth as 'just a number' or commodity to be exchanged. Frightening to think these are the folks trying to influence govt officials.

As in, if your last hope for immortality is brain uploads, you are kinda cornered into believing your sense of self gets shared between the physical and the digital instance, otherwise what’s the point? EY appears to be in this boat, he’s claimed something like there’s no real difference between instances of You existing in different moments in time sharing a self and you sharing a self with a perfect digital copy, so yeah, it’s obviously possible, unavoidable even.

God help me for asking, but do the Yuddites have a response to “every open system implements every finite state automaton” ?

Hello! I'm Eric and I've been sneering for a year. Love, love, love this community because reading some of the misanthropic techno fash b.s. rat cult beliefs was making me big mad & big sad, but injecting sneers directly into my veins has inoculated me :)
