        I do like his guided meditations! But it can be a bit tiring to picture the Eiffel Tower, a red bus, and George Washington every day 😅

        This is disingenuous. No honest person thinks that Sam suggested that Scott is great, when listening to this...

        I think the way your tweet reads is misleading. Maybe not intentionally. I could've been more charitable, I guess.

        Interesting! @kevin2kelly seemed much less anti-AI-safety in this conversation than in his recent Wired article. https://www.wired.com/2017/04/the-myth-of-a-superhuman-ai/ …

        The idea of us *accidentally* creating conscious agents able to experience excruciating suffering doesn't track at all for me.

        How could these functions write themselves into an agent without us doing so? Everything a program does has to be modeled into it.

        The only way we'll have conscious (like us) machines is if we get to a pt where we understand consciousness enough to model it in them imo.

        Yeah, I just don't buy this being an *emergent* property of a machine brain. I could be wrong, but I'm not yet inclined to worry about this.

        Haven't listened to the pod yet, but if C isn't simply the result of increased intelligence, how did we obtain it?

        At best "intelligence" is a measure of machinery. More sensible to say that consciousness is an evolved function that increases intelligence

        That increasED intelligence in specific biological computers. Computers which had poor parallel processing capability (vs. today's machines)

        Yes, though I suspect some *variant* will be useful for both. And I'd actually give parallel to brain and serial to the "computer"
