Human Brain Computer

I always thought it was good to be skeptical of supposed AI or brain downloading type of stuff, unless it's obviously in some fictional context

But how do you explain the McRib NFT?! Technology can clearly do wonders now

I really like the story in foundation how after the AI war, they killed all the AI sympathizers.

People who felt empathy towards machines that said they had conciouness, were killed by people who had consciousness for having empathy for things with consciousnesses lol

Effing awesome and terrifying.

Yeah pretty savage.

note to self: build faraday cages, and local emp devices

In the Warhammer 40,000 setting AI is treated with suspicion and is a forbidden technology. For complicated computation tasks, this is is worked around by having a series of organic brains networked together as an analogue computer.

The targeting computer on an automated laser cannon? Some petty criminal's skull jelly in a jar.

It's been a sci fi concept for a while that AI is outlawed. Probably just for the fun of it.

If you think about it, lucifer was like, "god if you create those little AI they will destroy everything else you have created they should be outlawed!"

Interesting. At work atm so could only skim it

I did a college paper on Savant Syndrome, what Rain man (Kim Peek is his real name I believe) had. It has many different forms, artistic/spatial, mathematical, etc. Rain man could speed read one eye scanning each book’s page, and commit every word to memory, and recall anything that was written on any page

Usually it’s the brain compensating for some sort of organic damage or medical trauma, and in the past with people like Rain Man they had severe neurological problems that made communicating how their brain is working impossible to do

But one guy had savant syndrome and could communicate, so they did a documentary about his brain, lemme see if I can find it. The way he describes how he does these incredible complex math computations was really interesting, just numbers in his mind flashing by with the correct ones like lit up or something. For him, it was not conscious analytical computation like we would expect, but more like subconscious, like the computations we do when riding a bike

Thanks for sharing that nice video

[Jibartik]

everything in this video is created with computer AI except for the weird al lookin guy
