DMN starts when you are doing something trivial and start thinking about something completely unrelated.

It's kinda like falling asleep, except more coherent.

When I read the title I expected some kind of satire. I wonder if author considered giving the AI a penance.

Maybe if it wrote "I will not delete production database again" a million times, it would prevent such situations in future?

Cool, maybe we could make CRISPR elves?

Humans tend to confabulate when asked "why you did X", funny how LLMs are pretty much the same.

I guess it's a matter of time until TVs include GSM modem for ads and DRM.

Cars already do, and the solution is to remove the modem.

If a car is equipped with 'eCall' from the factory in the EU a missing modem is seen as a safety defect and fails the yearly inspection which is required for road use.

The end game is Zuckerberg sitting alone in his bunker and vibe-ceo'ing all of facebook.

He'll also have to be vibe-eating because nobody is vibe-growing food any more. Everybody's too busy vibe-vacationing.

Imagine ideal future, and consider if it's achievable without AI.

Being forced to work is not much different from slavery, I would rather roll the dice than keep the status quo.

Do you celebrate people who persevere despite despite their hardships?

Ability to persevere is also wired in.

If you pull this thread to it's conclusion, then nothing is worth celebrating. Just law of physics doing their thing.

Frequent music chills were an unexpected side effect of my meditation practice. It matches with their "openness to experience" conclusion.

I also found out that you can encourage chills with meditative techniques:

1. Play your song, for example Sogno di Volare.

2. Close your eyes.

3. Think about awesome things: how cool it is that humans invented airplanes and rockets and satelites.

Scientific studies grasping for explanations to spiritual things always give me a smile. This is the way. It’s about opening up to the energetic experience being conveyed through the medium (art, music, whatever). Has nothing to do with individual variations in biology or physiology.

There are no "spiritual" things. Everything we experience is based upon biology and chemistry. Where do you think the "chills" come from if not synaptic firing?

There are only "spiritual" "things". Where do you think "biology", "chemistry" and "synapses" come from?

They are the result of an infinite and ever expanding cosmos; absolutely no magic thinking or beliefs are required. I don't need to pretend that magic exists just because processes are complex.

What I'm getting at is the difference between subjective experience ("chills") and any theory describing it. ("Qualia", "no amount of simulating water will make anything wet", etc.)

Although personally I prefer scientific theories to describe reality (they are still the best/most useful), our experience is never "based" on theories.

Well then we agree. I'm just not a fan of using the term "spiritual" for a physical event. No need to ascribe "chills" in a hand-wavy manner.

Why does the term “spiritual” bother you so much? Perhaps interrogate that.

I don't really have to interrogate why the term "spiritual" has absolutely no meaning wrt the genetic underpinnings of the effects discussed in the study. The study was scientific. It isn't complicated.

They were created by magic Gaia energy spirit beings, obviously. Or God, if that is your desired flavor. Or the beings in control of the simulation we're living in.

You forgot the part where everything you send is used to train your replacement.
