Some people, like Christof Koch, think that a simulation cannot become conscious. The irony is that only simulations can be conscious. Consciousness is a simulated property of a simulated system.
Do you tell this yourself to keep going? You don’t have to do that to yourself, you know. You are not too stupid to buckle down and fix your foundations, or pick a field of exploration where you are not such a self mutilating dilettante.

As for this: "self mutilating dilettante"... I don't even know where to start with responding to that. But it sounds like you have a lot of anger inside you about the world. And that's gotta suck.

I saying this in the kindest way possible, but I still think I should not have said that. I am trying to take you seriously. You cannot just clown around and expect that other people don’t get annoyed and keep talking to you.

I am not under the belief that one can ever know everything. But I certainly aim to explore everything. And it did take me a long time to choose to be free to "buckle down" to study it all, instead of competing to make money.
