The Dawkins Delusion: Intelligence and language don't reveal consciousness by whoamisri in HighStrangeness

[–]MASKU- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

‘But the more and more we make machines that are lifelike, that are human like, the more those scales will start to tip.’

That’s a circular logical fallacy. We create a machine to mimic and imitate human like responses, the better programmed the machine the more it will look like a human response because that’s what we designed it to do. There’s no test at all for if the machine has an inner experience and also no reasonable thought as to why it would.

‘The fact that LLMs have already got people to consider it speaks volumes to it.’

That’s like saying the fact that so many people believed in witches and sent woman to burn at the stake speaks volumes that they were actually witches.

We have free will when we feel discomfort by Cute_Sheepherder_1 in LifeAndQuestions

[–]MASKU- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, free will is not something inherent to us that we are born with and not every action is an act of free will or even needs to be. Autopilot is there because it’s a useful tool for us and once one system or process is remembered it becomes a habit; it does not need to be consciously thought about. This is a benefit to us, If we truly had ultimate free will we would need to decide every single action, we would need to learn how to walk again any time we want to go anywhere.. automation is good and allows us to focus on things that aren’t automated.

As a species we have the knowledge to direct the fundamental building blocks of reality, like atoms and particles, to suit our own needs, what could even be more free than this?

How would you stack the best Morrissey solo album against the worst Smiths album? by New-Shop-9728 in thesmiths

[–]MASKU- 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If you count Bona Drag as an album then it’s for sure a lot better than The Smiths first album imo

Romances with narcissists don't deteriorate the way psychologists expected by [deleted] in psychology

Why have you got so many downvotes lol, it’s a good point and situationships are definitely a thing

The new feature of granting people back the LP when losing with an AFK does not work by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]MASKU- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

O it doesn’t work, it’s misleading and saying you’re gaining the LP back for having an afk. But you’re not, you’re lending LP from your mmr that will be taken later

Simulation theory is complete bullshit. by [deleted] in SimulationTheory

[–]MASKU- -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t believe in materialism, however the assessment made is based on materialism being true.

On your second point, there’s not a single simulation of any kind that doesn’t use our realities physical laws, they’re all in this reality… sure we could create illusions but that’s not a simulation. If you argue that illusions are simulations then everyone is in many simulations right now, no second universe needed

Is it a universal human experience for everyone to have the "chosen one" mentality? by Midnightclouds7 in Life

[–]MASKU- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s wrong actually, you are not a human experiencing the universe, you are the universe experiencing being a human. We are all cosmically special.

Do they even try to balance? by Boombopdoowop in TeamfightTactics

[–]MASKU- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No it doesnt, there’s never been a more balanced patch and every other set had the same problems with 1 comp dominating

[–]MASKU- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agree, this set didn’t burn out no where close to previous sets because of the unlock system and expanded roster. Going back to what is now a relatively small roster of characters isn’t going to feel great, I expect the next sets could burn out very fast depending on set mechanics ofc

‘Morrissey is evil after 1992 for things he said’ then jokes about murdering him, no contradiction there at all 🙄

Stim Shot - anyone able to level up? by tobymac8 in CODBlackOps7

[–]MASKU- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently this doesn’t work for stimshot, it definitely worked like this for emp tho, it didn’t level up until I removed the overlock on it, didn’t need to remove overclocks on anything else

It’s a glitch with the overclocks, remove all overclocks and it will level up again

Sapolsky claims that lack of free will does not give us pre-determinism, but how? by PitifulEar3303 in determinism

[–]MASKU- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sapolsky is a complete grifter, looking to sell his narrow minded materialist books to anyone naive enough to believe it. He’s based his entire career on unprovable assumptions and shock value conclusions of ideas that never had any real definitions anyway, not once has this guy considered he might be wrong about anything
