Upgrading a computer is very different to adding a new sensor array all around the body.

I’m not saying upgrading older cars the only reason for excluding lidar, but I bet it was a large factor.

This statement works from anyone’s PoV.

Technical debt.

If you promise self driving on all cars, but cars already on the road don’t have lidar then no car has lidar.

I believe what you say. I don’t believe that is what the article is saying.

I’m not attacking philosophical arguments between the 1950s and the 1980s.

I’m pointing out that the claim that consciousness must form inside a fleshy body is not supported by any evidence.

There are so many fictional films referencing MKULTRA that people assume it is fiction.

The philosopher has made an unproven assumption. An erroneously logical leap. Something an academic shouldn’t do.

Just because everything we currently consider conscious has a physical presence, does not imply that consciousness requires a physical body.

It’s hard to see that books argument from the Wikipedia entry, but I don’t see it arguing that intelligence needs to have senses, flesh, nerves, pain and pleasure.

It’s just saying computer algorithms are not what humans use for consciousness. Which seems a reasonable conclusion. It doesn’t imply computers can’t gain consciousness, or that they need flesh and senses to do so.

So why is a real “thinking” AI likely impossible? Because it’s bodiless. It has no senses, no flesh, no nerves, no pain, no pleasure.

This is not a good argument.

Can’t proved they have been deleted and can’t prove you don’t have more.

Problem created.

The dob credential could verified and issued by anyone. But you may have more confidence in a government signature than a private company or known individual.

Zero Knowledge is more secure. Government signs a credential confirming date of birth and gives that to the citizen.

Citizen can then use that to create a proof they were born before date X. Verifier only sees the proof and the Government signature.

No need to trust 3rd party websites.

But, corporations are allowed to buy books normally and use them in training.

This judgment is implying that meta broke the law.

Or, If a legal copy of the book is owned then it can be used for AI training.

The court is saying that no special AI book license is needed.

I’ve watched some mildly amusing Yeti campfire tutorials that were AI generated.

I didn’t claim Tesla has solved this automation problem.

Waymo is closer to human levels, but not yet considerably better.

Task automation

It’s pretty obvious where the white genocide “bug” came from.

I assume you are being facetious, but for anyone who is part of today’s 10,000
