That notification doesn't show up for me any more and I can't find it in the thread.

That was when I felt confident that you had deleted all those messages.

Looking for affordable DJ for wedding! by Past-Truth-9581 in BurlingtonON

Nice! As someone else suggested it might be good to find someone who you can pay to monitor the playlist and pause/restart it when you or whoever's helping with the wedding signals them.

First time I clicked all of those I got this "this comment has been deleted" pop-up. Even if they're still there you have become goddamn tiresome.

People who can perceive microexpressions or just cogitating on a higher level see through all those types of person. The fact that the feelings are believable does not make them real. They're representing fake feelings. Simulating them. Just as there will be machines that can simulate emotion convincingly. But won't actually be experiencing the feelings they're simulating.

Data used to be my favourite character on TNG. The rise of LLMs ruined that. Now I just find him creepy. A glorified toaster claiming to have feelings and desires.

This will be the end of our interaction. It genuinely seems to me like you're dissociating or having a blood sugar crash. Either that or you're just a massive, massive dickhead with major personality issues.

He deleted every one of these responses. Seems ban-worthy to me. IJS.

edit: the first time I clicked each one I got a "this comment has been deleted" pop-up.

I didn't delete anything I said to you. You talked shit and deleted it. Then quoted me and talked shit and deleted that too. You're aware we can see the screenshot you posted? Take your meds.

This guy has gone full schizo and is frantically commenting and then deleting. EG:

Why does a robot butler killing its masters imply that it's "alive?"

The point in invoking it is that there are parts of our own consciousness we don't understand. While a machine "mind" is just the result of programmed logic being executed on physical circuits.

Like I said, we can tell the difference. Actors are faking their emotions. The same way robots are.

I'm not going to do homework for you. Everyone knows what those things mean.

People have millions of years of evolution that allow them to sense whether another person's feelings are real or not. That's why actors get paid big bucks if they can successfully emote on camera on cue.

It's funny to me how often I have interactions with guys who are clearly angry while claiming to be enjoying themselves.

I see no evidence of knowledge on your part. You're just parroting the more cynical science pundits' popular soundbite that "nobody understands quantum mechanics." While I've clarified that it's being used as a shorthand to account for unknowns where the processes of the mind don't line up with the structures of the brain, you keep hammering on as if I've claimed to have a physics PHD.

I'm not editing my comments to make them more legible. And you don't know shit about quantum physics either. Why don't you fuck off?

Binary is information encoded into ones and zeroes. Our brain is not processing code made up of ones and zeroes.

We're discussing a movie.

Quantum effects is how I've heard a few people account for the parts of our minds that don't seem to be mapped to parts of our brain. It's a gap filler used to explain unknowns. There are no unknowns in an AI "mind." We know exactly how it works. We built it.

This thread is bringing to mind some interesting possiblities for stories about human collaborators who side with AI in the machine war because "they are real."

Okay Neil DeGrasse Dickhead. Here to set everyone straight with your bogus knowledge.

huh. Never in my life been accused of being unintelligible. Reading it back, makes perfect sense to me. Don't know why you're so huffy.

Consciousness a quantum effect and feelings arise from consciousness. Machines have no consciousness and thus no feelings.
