You can't copy awareness. Awareness is what is uncopyable, not just
because awareness is special, but because it is ontologically
perpendicular to the possibility of simulation. All attempts to copy
awareness result in a doll.
Does that then entail that if a conscious amoeba were to fission,
the resulting two amoebae would be unconscious? Or only one of them?
That's not a copy of an amoeba, reproducing its body is part of what
an amoeba does.
But the evidences we have is that amoeba use the Dx = "xx" method
for the self-copy (indeed I discovered it by looking at amoeba and
reading book on molecular biology, before finding the logicians got
it).
That makes sense to me because the amoeba's body will look like a
copy to our body's senses. A 3p view of 3p is truncated and filled
in generically. The 1p amoeba is the localized subset of the entire
history of amoeba-like experience, not just the isolated maintainer
of the 3p amoeba body. When we look for 3p evidence, we will not
necessarily see 1p authenticity as certain evidence. The
authenticity has to be felt through the feeling as semi-describable
aesthetic qualities...which is where we get a lot of unscientific
sounding terms like life force, kundalini, prana, xi, etc. These
kind of numinous qualities apply not just to living beings, but to
works of art, sacred places, etc, if you are subjectively receptive
to their authenticity. They do not give us infallible proof of
originality, but they are reminders that there is an important
difference between 'something' and *the real thing*.
You are just saying that you are not subjectively receptive to the
machines" 1p.
No, I'm saying that I am receptive to the absence of machine 1p (and
I'm not by any means alone in that sensitivity).
A nonsense, followed by an authoritative argument.
The uncanny valley is not merely the failure to detect the presence
of subjectivity it is the positive detection of the failed attempt
of an object disguised as a subject.
What you say is that you, and some others, have a magical talent,
capable of detecting absence of consciousness.
Do you think that the humans having not that talents are also deprived
of subjectivity, or are they just stupid, or what?
Your theory is the refrain "we are superior".
Copy and self-copy are different, for machines too, but in the case
under study, this does not entail any observable difference, and if
you are right, it means that the copy doll will be a zombie.
The reproduction of the amoeba's body is an approximate copy from
our 3p perspective, but the Xp copier itself cannot be copied. It is
not only unique, but it is uniqueness itself - meta-unique if you
like. The Xp copier is consciousness, who provides both the meaning
and the method of copying.
I can understand that consciousness is a selector, but it makes no
sense for me to say it is the copier.
Why? The phenomenon of perceptual fill-in is a pretty vivid example
of how copying is part of how consciousness produces representation.
?
All arithmetic truth relates only to the 3p view of Xp copying
language.
Why? I illustrate that this is not the case, already with the most
known definition of knowledge.
Knowledge and definition are both 3p expectations also.
You are not arguing.
