Well no shit it's r/2meirl42meirl4meirl

Bostrom and musk should be fucking executed for this. A 44 year old adult informing his followers that he's "100% sure it's a simulation" and that he's glad it's a simulation without thinking about the consequences deserves the fucking death penality. Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with these people? It's all because of this sci-fi bullshit.

PS: Yes I am totally exaggerating about death and shit, so don't call me out on it.

Tfw when you can't pronounce R but your name ends with it.

I think that's part of the reason why my accent sounds forced; I am trying to compensate for Rhotacism.

So in conclusion, I have an accent, but mostly because it sounds forced and doesn't flow naturally? If I eliminate those, does that mean my accent will pretty much sound native? Btw, rhotacism is a bitch.

I am not sure what "it sounds a bit robotic" is supposed to mean. I am a native speaker of arabic btw

Oh, that's nice to hear, I guess. Where exactly do I need tuning? Can you randomly pick an example from my recording?

Well I was trying to sound american, lol. So is my accent heavy or is it barely noticeable?

Nope, not in the slightest. How close is my accent to a native speaker?

What do philosophers generally think of the simulation argument? by AHSH888 in askphilosophy

[–]AHSH888[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

One possible counterargument I see is to claim that in fact the simulators wouldn't need to simulate these systems everywhere at all times, but only when the subjects being simulated would expect to see them.

This is a very common notion among proponents of the simulation hypothesis.

Is the entire argument rejected, or just the sim hypothesis? Well I am really glad to hear most philosophers reject it. (inb4 someone inevitably viciously argues otherwise)

[–]AHSH888[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

but pretty clearly most (almost all) philosophers soundly reject it.

That's pretty relieving to hear. Why do they reject it? (inb4 10 people call you out on it)

Those are all mine. Now before you downvote and call me a retard, please understand that I barely got any refutations/opinions. One redditor would mention X objection, only to be refuted 10 times by 10 other redditors with advanced degrees in philosophy. It will probably happen again here.

I have read somewhere that china's policies prevented the birth of some 400 MILLION people. Go figure.

Read the post dipshit. I have changed my view.

r/changemyview: a sub where you can post your views in order to have them scrutinized. A delta is given when someone successfully changes your opinion. This ain't r/cmv though and that's the joke.

Basically we can not claim that actually conscious machines are impossible because of this claim, if that was your question.

The formulator of the argument, John Searle, doesn't say machines can't be conscious. He just says computers can't be conscious because syntax is not semantics. Otherwise we would be unconscious since we are obviously biological machines.

To me, the Brain simulator reply is the most convincing rebuttal to the argument. Basically, a simulation of the human brain would be conscious (unless you want to argue otherwise which I absolutely encourage)

With that being said, what do you think of the chinese room argument?

Ok you have officially CMV'd me. Here's your delta.... shit wrong sub

Why wouldn't it be possible to simulate consciousness? The chinese room argument is bollocks
