AI Conscious?

You are just a sceptic. That accomplishes nothing.

It's an absurdist level of skepticism. It is literally the thing that every freshman philosophy student goes through when they hit Empiricism and Hume. How can an empiricist know ANYTHING perfectly?

Are you in any way familiar with MATHEMATICS? (That's the one with NUMBERS, not the letters)

In mathematics there are estimations which allow one to make solid decisions even when it isn't exactly 100% known perfectly. Take for instance something called an "infinite series" which, per the name, is infinite. It cannot be wholly solved. BUT many of these infinite series CONVERGE on a value.

Take Pi as another example. You can't possibly know pi to all its digits (it's infinite) so I guess you can never calculate the area of a circle. You can never calculate....well about 1/3 of any given equation in physics. You simply don't know anything about circles because you can't know pi perfectly

Look at CALCULUS (that's the class your smarter friends in high school took while you were over in shop algebra). There's a "Lim" function which provides a value for a function as it APPROACHES some input value.

There are also countless shortcuts or estimators in math which serve perfectly well to come to SOLID DISCRETE SOLUTIONS even when all the data is less than 100% known.

Even in INFERENTIAL STATISTICS (google that so you'll understand) scientists allow products to go out on the market as effective treatments for, say, illnesses, after they have tested it and "rejected the null hypothesis" that the drug didn't have any effect. Again, the data is NEVER perfect.

ALL OF THIS IS DENIED TO YOU because you are some sort of zealot for perfected knowledge.


Like I said, let me know when you make it past the Hume module in your online philosophy-for-morons class and we can further discuss.

Sorry (sorta) that I am causing you so much distress. Usually it is not this easy...most people I debate are adults and can handle the pressure with more aplomb.

Try to calm down, Son. We're just getting started...and you are a PhD, correct? No reason to explode quite yet.

Need I remind you that you are the one typing in all bold.

I knew you didn’t understand all the math stuff

You needn't do anything...except what I set up for you to do. You are unfailingly accommodating...and I thank you for that.

I see you are still claiming to "know" stuff that you merely guess about.

Good. That is something upon which I rely.

Noted you dropped the screaming bold font.

When you learn more math I’ll talk to you as a near equal.

Oops.

My bad. Just the occasional fuck-up.

Speak with me...do not speak with me. Whatever.

My guess...you will do exactly what I want you to do...as you have been so far. And so far, I have not demanded that you speak to me "as a near equal." I just do not think you are up to it.

Sorry, Cleetus, I don't care what you are saying. I hope it isn't anything important to you because you are just too stupid to actually converse like an adult with, Sweetie.

Now fuck off and read a book or have someone teach you something. ANYTHING to make you an interesting person. Because right now you are one-trick pony who doesn't even know much.

Sorry I don't meet your standards, Mr. PhD. But you ought to be more concerted that YOU do not meet YOUR standards. The braggadocio is laughable. You are a loser, Youngster...and YOU are the major reason for that. I am just nudging you along. YOU have to do the heavy work to make yourself look so bad.

Reminds me of:

That's sad, too. But I get it. There's a ZERO probability that you would have what it takes to even get a MS, let alone a PhD.

So that's why you blather the way you do on one point and one point alone.


Now go vote for Trump again like you did in the last 3 elections. Your level of knowledge really DOES match most MAGAts

Interesting guess. Make you feel better with those childish "you is ignorant" insults?

Actually, I discuss many different "points" here. But if it makes you feel closer to being a man to suppose differently, go for it. I am always willing to be entertained by you.

I have never voted for Trump...nor will I ever vote for any MAGA moron.

YOU are acting like him, though. Has he influenced you that much?

Ross, I'm so sorry to see that you are exactly like Cypress in that you have a HUUUUUGE chip on your shoulder over your lack of intellectual prowess and your general shitty performance throughout your education. I'm sure your job as the most interesting janitor at the school is just as fulfilling as a job requiring more than just the GED you were able to scrape through.

There is VALUE in your level of work. We NEED people like you who aren't much good for anything but menial labor. You serve and you are appreciated.

Sure I give you a hard time on here but I actually honor the hardworking janitors like you. You guys make our jobs more pleasant.

Thanks for all you do and all the trash you pick up!
