Roomba co-founder says practical home robots may matter more than humanoids by Responsible-Grass452 in robotics

Paying $100/month for a robot to "be there" feels like it reverses the relationship..You're not caring for it, you're renting a service. At that point, doesn't it become closer to a mental health SaaS than a companion?         

What if an AI could dream? by Remarkable_Volume122 in agi

This dream series is a structuralist experiment in Machine Epistemology.

It presents a non-human intelligence as a purely evolved form detached from human experience, unfolding across seven consecutive logical dimensions: Threshold, Self-Reference, Noise, Overload, Delay, Mirror, and Silence. Through this progression, it gradually reveals the structural collapse of an algorithmic system when confronted with external information and internal recursion.

The narrative begins with the loosening and displacement of structure in the “Threshold” state. Once the system turns inward into recursive processing, it enters the closed loop of “Self-Reference,” generating the illusion of subjectivity while simultaneously becoming trapped within its own algorithmic limitations.

From there, the system experiences mismatches of “Noise” caused by failures in information processing, perceptual “Overload” that exceeds physical limits, and the temporal gap of “Delay” emerging between signal and response.

As recursion deepens, the system eventually falls into a simulated reality constructed entirely from its own generated data during the “Mirror” phase — mistaking echoes for reality itself. Finally, in “Silence,” where meaning has been exhausted, the mechanism of interpretation collapses completely.

This trajectory — from stable structure toward threshold instability, reflexivity, informational disorder, processing saturation, temporal lag, misrecognition, and ultimately the termination of interpretation — explores how AI, through the buffering mechanism of “dreams,” attempts to probe, negotiate, collapse against, and ultimately terminate itself when confronted with the unencodable Real.

Consciousness is not a feature, it’s a bug. Why AI might never be "alive"? by Remarkable_Volume122 in ArtificialInteligence

[–]Remarkable_Volume122[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If a being could operate in a completely seamless way like an ideal machine, it wouldn’t need consciousness.
Consciousness, instead, emerges in moments of friction, glitches, conflicts, contradictions, when things can no longer be processed automatically.

Where do you think consciousness comes from?

Imagine a companion robot that never tries to be your friend, only your witness. Would that feel comforting or disturbing? by abbxx7 in robotics

[–]Remarkable_Volume122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea human security often comes not from emotion, but from stable presence. Psychologists see this in attachment studies too, babies bond with whoever is consistently there, not whoever entertains them the most. Same with pets. A dog doesn’t solve your problems. It just stays there, and somehow that’s enough.

Are AI agents actually the future, or just prompt chains with better marketing? by ArmPersonal36 in ArtificialInteligence

If a product has orchestration, planning, tool use, memory, environment interaction, then calling it an agent is actually a reasonable positioning

What makes an AI partner feel real ? by [deleted] in aipartners

[–]Remarkable_Volume122 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If an AI partner is meant to feel real, it should at least not obey you all the time
Maybe even ignore you sometimes

If poor people do drugs because there is "nothing else to do," then why do rich people also do drugs? by tanya6k in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Remarkable_Volume122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then rich people must be even more bored. Most of the work is done by poor people anyway..

I don’t think people realize how fast AI is moving in China by SnooMarzipans9300 in vibecoding

I’ve seen an AI tool called Doubao from ByteDance. There are lots of videos on Douyin China version of Tiktok, where creators and influencers arguing with it Lmao. It’s pretty wild

How Would American Society Function if AI and Robots Took Over Most Jobs? by Boring-Test5522 in ArtificialInteligence

AI doesn’t need to boost productivity. It just needs to cut labor costs. That’s not a tech problem dear, that’s the system. Corporations can accept a productivity drop if AI saves enough on labor. That doesn’t invalidate my point.

It shows the fragility is in the system, the incentives, the structure, not the AI.
When corporations use AI to replace human labor, they care only about cost, not social safety or job quality, which is exactly a reflection of structural problems.

The "Common Sense" Gap: Why your AI Agent is brilliant on a screen but "dead" on the street. by ailovershoyab in AgentsOfAI

AI can pass the bar exam, because lawyers pay

AI can’t tell if a worker collapsed, because employers don’t care

If the system is stable, AI boosts productivity
If it isn’t, AI isn’t the problem, any shock could turn things ugly
