True. For a few years after the death of chairman Mao China started
My thinking after reading this dissertation is that going for an entire galaxy
may not be a prime motivation for conscious beings, even computer ones. A solar
system, plus the cloud of comets might, just do the trick?

My view based on what a few astronomers have written, is that we are not yet at
the level of placing enough detectors aka telescopes around the solar system,
the Oort cloud-Kuiper Belt to detect even big things like Dyson's Spheres. If
one goes by why would our kiddies' built it, I'd go with

Xi is basing his politics on Gorbachev and the Soviets. He wants the party to
avoid destruction by crushing the middle class internally, and yes, killing
America. Not economically, but with nuclear warheads and a continental
invasion, eventually.

Well, we have this sort of cosmic equivalence principle that what is down
on Earth is the same up there. Things are screwy here on Earth and we
humans are little more than 8 billion trash making ground apes
exponentially rampaging out of control. So, should we expect things to be

The extropy chat list has been extensively debating the question of GPTs
potential for understanding and consciousness the past several weeks. I'd
invite you to check it out if that subject interests anyone here.
I cross posted John's post there.

I have noticed a curious upsurge in ideas that involve a little bit of
science, some futuristic stuff with a heavy dollop of science fiction ideas
that are framed within libertarian or right winged political ideology.
Social media has had a big growth in this sort of silliness. I suppose

You say that GPT4 doesn't understand what it is saying, but did you read my

and just ask about non-personal topics, including hypothetical scenarios
