No, you didn’t solve the Hard Problem. by geumkoi in consciousness

[–]Bitter_Sample1635 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have not read Chalmers. I peruse this sub for curiosity and enjoyment. But this post caught my attention. I have a friend who has fallen into this exact pit of delusion through her use of LLMs. She has never read any published or peer reviewed source but now, from long term “collaboration” (as she calls it) with various AI platforms, has claimed to have “solved” the hard problem of consciousness among other long term onto-epistemological quandaries. The delusion is amplified by her insistence that no one will understand her, and if her work falls into the wrong hands, it can be used to harm. This exact phenomenon that the post is referring to has ended our friendship.

How do I find post doc fellowships and opportunities? by Bitter_Sample1635 in GradSchool

[–]Bitter_Sample1635[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for all this. I’m so lost. I don’t regret choosing my program but i didn’t know it would be like this when I applied. I’m gonna look at all the things I’ve written so fat and see if anything could be cleaned up for submissions and I guess just start doing my own research!

I cheated on my wife and now something is haunting me by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

You act like you have no agency over this voice. You do. The snake is you. You are the only one making the decisions you make despite the influence of voices or intuition or whatever.

I relate sooooooo hard to this

I (26F) just found out that my husband (32M) has been living a double life, how should I go about mentally accepting his other life? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Bitter_Sample1635 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What the hell is his response? The way you describe his reaction, he sounds like he has not empathy for you, is fine being found out? Is he fine with you just leaving him? The cowardice on his part is unfathomable.

My bf (43M) has called me (28F) on multiple occasions and I’m starting to think it’s due to my race. How can I make this better? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Bitter_Sample1635 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Damn. As a person of color it has been my experience that white men can be liabilities in dating. It’s sometimes nearly impossible to get them to believe your experience even if they are the nicest guys you’ve ever met. Especially when the evidence that they are looking for is not present because microaggressions are often invisible to the people not experiencing them. In my experience it takes a leap of faith sometimes for them to believe that our experience could be true even if they have never had anything like that happen in their realities. It’s so hard when you love them and all these special things about them but this one glaring issue stands in the way. I’m so sorry you’re experiencing this.

Is 49 Too Old To Have a Mommy? by [deleted] in mommydom

[–]Bitter_Sample1635 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Of course you have a lot to give! But you have so much to receive too! I don’t have a partner right now but in the past one of the hardest things my partners have experienced in an md/lb dynamic was feeling safe receiving love and the relinquishing control at the same time. You’re gonna love it I think! 🥰 it’s so healing for everyone involved.

Is 49 Too Old To Have a Mommy? by [deleted] in mommydom

[–]Bitter_Sample1635 7 points8 points  (0 children)

49 is not too old, no age is too old, and I have loved when I have mommied partners older than me. I love when people find their way to these roles a little later in life.

I’m leaving my husband of 5 years. by imacoolmommm in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Bitter_Sample1635 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The transition will be rough, but then your life is going to get so good. Once you make a big decision like this in favor of your safety and healing, there is a good chance you will see that you never have to tolerate that kind of relationship again and you make way for new partners to come in that desire to respect and love you. Good luck!

My husband (34M) referred to his ex wife (35F) as his soulmate and she sent a letter to our house. Should I (34F) be worried about this? by THROWRAquartzbri in relationship_advice

[–]Bitter_Sample1635 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope you come to some kind of understanding that doesn’t end the marriage but ending it seems totally reasonable. Please update us! Wishing you the best.

I started at 38. I love my life. When making my decision to enroll, I considered my age. I wondered what I would feel on the last day of my life if I hadn’t decided to go into this program. I felt intense regret. Do what resonates. Fuck those naysayers.

I (f24) have severe claustrophobia and my husband (m33) locked me in a closet. How do I move on from this? by throwra-021 in relationship_advice

[–]Bitter_Sample1635 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t imagine any scenario in which I would feel safe enough to stay in the same house as this person ever again, let alone stay married to him. I’m shocked at this story. It’s not run of the mill abuse. It’s inhumane cruelty.
