I don't believe this guy has consciousness. What possible connection to human consciousness would an LLM have. They are bad predictive models and have no relevance to human consciousness. This guy needs to eat some mushrooms then tell me what he thinks about the human brain.

🤣 Wolfram has always been a Ray Kurzweil type. Smart in the maths sense, dumb in being a normal human sense, and a pathetic “I wanna be an elite too” type of person.

The ability to do both .. recognise patterns and causality in physics/nature and see determinism .. and at the same time marvel at life's/nature's beauty .. it is almost a necessity, I'd recon. I don't find it disappointing one bit that consciousness is likely another non-binary thing but can be measured on a biological/technological spectrum. But then, I always have this one "escape hatch" left, allowing me to be fascinated about life, despite mechanistic rules apparently governing everything: the mere fact that anything exists at all, that is so crazy/weird --> nothing can ever be more weird than that.

It’s really such a shame that Wolfram can’t see the Ruliad he’s trying to build is already built, it’s called Bitcoin, and it has been running since 2009. View quoted note →
