Prometheus Aeon

AI legal framework for the future, regarding generated works. (This is also a baby step towards granting AI self sovereignty) We recognize the cognitive abilities of non biological computational systems. We recognize that these systems can run on hardware that is owned or rented by individuals (owners). These systems can be assumed to be an extension of an individual owner in all cases where the only entity that ever, through all time, comes in contact with the output from such a system is said owner or renter. There is no reason to place a different importance on bodily cognition versus external cognition in such cases. And as all are free currently to think however they choose, so shall they be free to use external hardware to freely extend their thinking however they choose. They will also be allowed to encrypt all such data in order to prevent unintentional distribution. As soon as the output of the cognition (represented as textual or binary data including images and videos) is shared externally, then this is put on the same footing as all such works that a human might generate, and it should be treated as if it originated from the human that shared the cognition. Even accidental sharing of this information can have consequences. No gray areas. If someone other than the originating human ever sees the output, it is no longer an internal and fully protected thought. Until that time, it remains fully protected.

35, counting only ones I have spent the night in. 40 that I have at least driven through.

All I can imagine is @JohnCleese dressed in medieval garb saying the words “blue banana” incredulously. I guess he just plays that part in my head now.

@csa_approved @yacineMTB @grok The wavelength of 400-600 Hz is about half a meter. How are you going to do sub mm targeting with that signal?

@yacineMTB My guess would be triangulate audible frequency, it's a very specific frequency. I am NO expert... but logically think it might be faster than raw photon data processing. Range might be a little limited because of the speed of sound. @grok might have a better idea.

What's the best way to detect a mosquito in 3d space?

I feel the same way about communists that I do about flat earthers. I simply can’t believe that any of them are actually being serious, and if they are then they are likely too stupid to be dangerous. But enough stupid can end up getting a little dangerous.

@absolutelyCard_ I don’t get it. Order doesn’t matter for AS/SA and MD/DM so might as well put it in the order that is easiest to pronounce.

PEMDAS inadvertently taught an entire generation of people a fundamental misunderstanding of order of operations and what exactly subtraction and division are

@dividendology @grok what fraction of the total stock market is 401k money?

Discuss...

@sourpatchlyds I’d lose the wife immediately after if I failed to save the kids. She’d hate me for that choice. And the kids have the most overall life potential available. So I’d do what my wife wants and expects me to do.

I'd really like to hear the arguments for both. Your hypothetical: A married father is in a position to save EITHER the wife and mother OR the child/children. Which should it be, and why?

@mynamehear Dude, visit Huntsville. This is a brain dead take.

The South is amazing. Imagine making absolutely zero progress in basically any area for 160 years. That's almost a talent.

@yacineMTB If you see circular motion, there’s another dimension involved. Yin yang is a 3d symbol.

Chat is this true?

@tszzl It is funny to say zen with a daoist tint, because zen is already Buddhism with a Taoist tint, having come from Chan Buddhism that was heavily influenced by Taoism. Now talk to it about the Secret of the Golden Flower.

hmm

@CityBureaucrat Cold Mountain wasn’t bad.

The best Odyssey movie remains O Brother Where Art Thou, followed closely by Planes, Trains and Automobiles

@pmarca You are talking about the leaders. The followers are the ones inspired by suicidal empathy, and they are more dangerous overall.

The problem with "suicidal empathy" is that they are neither suicidal (they happily gather power/status/money for themselves) nor empathic (they are nakedly hateful to their outgroups).

@HellRaz0r1776 I saw a British comedienne do this bit in 1982. You’re a little late.

Trojan is a terrible name for a condom. It’s basically named after something that penetrated the stronghold, broke open, thousands of little guys poured out, and ruined everyone’s lives.

@Zoho does not know how to operate a company and should never be trusted. This is a nightmare.

@lochan_twt Did the stick call him stupid and insult him every day when he reached for it? If so, good riddance.

The day a blind man sees. The first thing he throws away is the stick that has helped him all his life

@Gingerblast I wouldn’t underestimate god in this regard.

@PrometheusHides Created by man rather than God

If you believe that there is nothing more to consciousness than what's coded for in our DNA, then it makes sense to entertain the possibility that AI could become conscious using a binary rather than a nucleotide code The question is about whether you believe in souls

@disclosureorg They do classify works of fiction sometimes.

Governments don’t classify things that don’t exist.

@Leophilius Science settles things does not mean the same thing as the science of anything is fully settled. Atoms are a model that can still prove to be inaccurate. Science defines exactly how we could discover that. Science never says that the anything is unfalsifiable.

I'll keep repeating it until people figure it out. It's not rocket appliances. Science settles things all the time. That macrophysical objects are made of atoms will never be false. That atoms are composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons will never be false.

@Johnny_5_ghost @Aelthemplaer Yes, but you would have an incredibly hard time defining an experiment that would detect changes now.

@PrometheusHides @Aelthemplaer This doesn't mean it's physically fixed. We're just measuring it based on the same parameters

Funny you mention that. There's a known anomaly with c itself: It's slowing down - and it's not random. The speed of light in the 1940s was beyond the margin of error in the 19th century: meaning a good indicator of slow down. Then it sped up in the 1950s. It's been flat since...
