sucks when you could really use a supernal intelligence whose judgment you trust and it turns out you don't trust any of them as far as you can throw them, and how far you can throw them is NaN meters

I wouldn’t intuitively trust a supernatural intelligence, thinking from first principles. But as a purely practical matter, I wonder: How often do you find “you” knew better than the still small voice? Me? Actually never. Spooky, makes no sense, but utterly dependable so idgaf.

by supernal i mean higher-order or more-distributed or whatever, i would never use the word "supernatural" to talk about anything serious but yeah, totally in re your actual point. and it makes perfect sense to me actually

how much computing power could it really take to run the part of you that talks to itself in words

I wasn’t talking about my internal voice / talking part. I meant the still small voice that doesn’t feel like me, and (on the rare occasions I hear from it) gives clear advice from a place of apparent pre-cog galaxy-mind. Did I tell you and Dan about my encounter on the bus?

oh hey, a fun game you can play is to put that voice into visible phenomena and pretend it's coming from them instead. kinda like turning up the volume knob on an amplifier. personally, I like to use my own shadow silhouette for this.
