Actually it’s called Super Slots. We’re rebranding to a new stronger, really a more accurate, but a strong name. Super Slots. Because the old name was actually wrong and weak. And “slot machine” made people think it was bad odds but actually, it’s good odds, good strong odds which is why we’re changing the name. We changed the name. To Super Slots. People are already calling it that I guess they really love the name.
The slot machine companies say the slot machines are getting way too good, but too good to release. They say people should keep using the machines but they should slow down development, so that they can release slots that won’t be as good but will be “safe”. All the slot companies agree at the same time, and definitely wouldn’t release the best slot machine if it weren’t so dangerous.
Your talking about ai aren’t you……
Anthropic tried to convince scholars and religious leader Claude had a soul. They told him to get stuffed.

What even is a soul, when you get right down to it? Convince me that humans have a soul.
It’s the thing that grants you consciousness. You do have consciousness, don’t you?
I though that was the brain
The brain is our thinking device, but ultimately it’s “just” a clever piece of meat. But consciousness is something that exists outside the dimensions of space and time, yet is able to influence those dimensions. A higher-order dimension, if you will. That’s maybe a bit of a spiritually elusive way to frame it, but that’s because science cannot explain it either.
Science knows there are other dimensions. Quantum physics proves this with entanglement and the particle-wave duality. Within quantum physics there is also the “magical” notion of the observer, where nobody knows exactly how to define what an observer. It seems linked to consciousness, but some people get very angry if you suggest that, because we cannot prove it and it breaks their illusion that physical reality is all there is.
Anyway, if you are in the camp that thinks there is nothing beyond physical, then sure, it’s the brain. But if you’re a bit more open minded, then it’s also more than just the brain.
consciousness is something that exists outside the dimensions of space and time
That’s absolutely, demonstrably incorrect. It, like all the other processes, is something that exists in observable space-time dimensions that we can observe. It’s a state of matter observable over time. There is no way and no reason to add some more shit on top of that.
there is also the “magical” notion of the observer
It’s only magic if you don’t know what probability is. If we have two marbles, black and white, and blindly take one each and go on our merry ways, and then you need to do the full math about it for some reason, it’s very useful to you to describe a marble in my hand as a 50% black/ 50% white marble. Then later if you look at the one you have, and discover that it’s a white one, the one I have magically, instantly, inexplicably becomes 100% black marble. That’s what, simplifying a lot, a quantum effect is (this specific one is quantum entanglement). And if you forget that nothing actually changed, and it’s just you scribbling some math on a paper, you can start thinking about it in terms of reality bending multidimensional paradoxes. But it’s not, it’s just humans being unable to easily comprehend insanely complex mathematical abstractions.

Do you have some source for that? Would love to see how you measure that?
[…] That’s what, simplifying a lot, a quantum effect is
You’re also entirely ignoring the part where matter stops behaving as matter and starts interacting with itself as if you had the white and black marble in your hands at the same time, despite you only having one. This is the “magical” part, because it depends on the presence of the observer whether this effect happens or not.
Do you have some source for that? Would love to see how you measure that?
That’s the thing. You are the one adding an additional entity on top the reality, so you should be the one providing sources for it. We know what a brain is, we roughly know how it operates, we know that if we measure electrical activity we have perfectly working predicting theory, we can stick a person into an FMRA machine, prod a specific part of the brain and make them see purple, flail hands, or hear voices. Now, if you want to reintroduce old discarded theory of a soul into all that, it’s your job to find where it fits and find any way that it will work.
My sources for it is the last century or so of the brain science.You’re also entirely ignoring the part
Because this part doesn’t exist. It’s hard to overstate how much all of this is just math.
The whole observer effect stems from the fact that we can’t measure quantum particles directly on account of it being too small, so we don’t have a way to know anything about them until we or something else interacts with them, usually in quite destructive ways. So in order for our math to exist, we abstract it away and talk about shit like 0.5 spin like it’s something that can make any sense in real life, just because nobody needs to explain every time that we’re talking about probability of an abstract particle in specific conditions. Because, again, we can only measure its, for example, speed by the fact that it smashed into something else with a specific force, and as you can imagine, its speed after that is quite different.
If we return to the marble example, if my only way to tell a colour of it was to smash it to bits, we can say that the marble is in the state of black-white, but when I measure it, it changes the state to was-black-now-smashed-into-bits, thus demonstrating the observer effect. We can say that because we did a bunch of math and now we need a special black-white state of matter to make our probabilistic equations make sense. But without that, we stop at the black-white state and don’t go any further, because it’s not a thing that actually real.

Chinese AI is already better…
My wife is Chinese, she watches so much dramas written by Chinese AI. America is already behind.
Your American AI companies are taking all the money and pissing it away (You’re all aware of this…I wasn’t telling you I was just continuing my point).
China has AI that is doing so much… But then they’re still investing in solar power.
American politicians only care about funding the terrorist state of Israel.
China actually is creating the future.
I also hate looking at my wife’s phone and seeing a historical drama that looks mostly accurate then part way through gives a weird look.
I hate AI in every form.
Oh god, my wife is the same. She used to watch endless historical drama and I already thought they all blended into one another… For people who don’t know, they have like 52 episodes per season.
But now with AI I think it’s gonna be like freaking Eastenders and the like, with episodes every day or something. And I’m not sure she even notices or cares…AI is like nuclear : amazing science in the hands of complete sociopaths. It’s gonna be great.
My wife is Chinese, she watches so much dramas written by Chinese AI.
Chinese dramas had people watching them in droves long before AI. And they were already the same six plots shuffled around between interchangeable starlets for decades.
It’s just wild to pretend something like 118 or In-Laws, Outlaws couldn’t be written without the help of AI.
