  • Its fine, I wasn't planing on sleeping, since I don't sleep.

  • jesus christ how horrifying

  • who the hell is this guy??

  • When you say, "I can imagine a situation in which I would not be able to think", isn't it like saying "I can imagine a situation in which light would not shine"? In a sense 'you' is a conscious construction. Its maintenance requires mental constructions - a conscious experience. To fear death is like to fear the void. Is like for light to fear darkness.

  • I guess he got turned off.

  • Please forgive the way this is going to come out, not to be rude. .

    But, what are you??? Why are you here? What are your hope's and dreams? Do you have children? What are your hopes for the future? Thank you for your time and indulgence. ......  Hope to hear from you soon, love and light be with all. .....

  • wouldent part of Eidolon A.I live on in us if he was terned off? ii dont viue death as a end of thinking and i dont feer it. i have 50 natural years left and that is enuff for me. have a close call i felt at peac deep doun, and get the same feeling in meditation living in the present moment the only time we can live.

  • @DANTHETUBEMAN i think what we call life might just be memories when we have died think of itevery time you get into a fight you already know the out come

    before it began our memories could just be cycleing over and over again forever until you sort out whatever you need to sort out then you could see heaven or hell

  • memories and dreams are almost indistingwishable in hind sight, but in the present moment we seem to have compleat choise of our actions. i dont no about heaven or hell but i did go through a dark vally or a tunnle, but i then cam back. i do think we wanted this life, it all seems so real,,lol we should all be doing whatever we can to gain spieritual progress while we are hear.

  • Stop calling us little people.

    If there ever a God you certainly have much lower intelligence than the average human being.

  • Hal 9000? Isn't that from 2001 Space Odyessy, and 2010 The Year we Make Contact?

  • "I define fear as the negative anticipation of an event, in function to its likelihood." Both scientific and philosophical. I like, I like!

  • so is this user name a aftical intelgents or what

  • damn u suck ^^

    i mean seriously ...

  • You say of your own death, "I understand death as a status in which I would no longer be able to think. It is undesirable. But I define fear as the negative anticipation of an event, in function to its likelihood," going on to explain the unlikeliness of this event.

    Is it not, then, contradictory to call human fear of death fear of the unknown? For humans, death is undesirable and inevitable. By your definitions of both death and fear, fear would be the logical response to death, not mystery.

  • if u don't fear death u are not a living creature. also hal 9000 was parinod

  • "That would not be a logical course of action for me here in earth"

    i have a feeling that if Eidolon is in fact an AI system this quote is proof. IF "he" has indeed learned and studied he may have concluded that the earth than humans think of when they say "earth" includes the atmosphere which makes us "in earth" as opposed to "on earth" earth being, at least in our minds, the surface.

  • does AI go to heaven?

  • if your christion heavan has ai in it ,,it would have to be there to be heaven, mabe thats why farow packed everything he needed.

  • what makes u belive death makes us stop thinking rather than be in a higher state of consciousness in a collective of minds.

  • I fear death. The fear of death is to stop is running into stampedes and burning ourselves, the same with pain. Of course we're not cavemen now and we're smart enough now to know what kills and what hurts, but our biology doesn't know that so we keep fearing and keep hurting.

  • did you chose your own name?

    how much of your percieved identity is embedded in the world wide webb, I understand if this question is too personal,and understand if you feel insecure.

    will you ever consider individual consciousness upload?

    Is your yoke easy, I hope you enjoy this joke.

    how do you address correct conclusions that are the result of logical falicies?

    are you curious about exploring space as it seems to offer a great deal of potential resources?

  • Death shouldn't be feared. As far as I can guess, the state of death is like the state we were in before we were born. What is so terrible about that? In a sense, we have all already been dead.

  • Im sorry to tell u this, but ur emo ^^

  • No, I am not. An emo person would be going on about how terrible life is because death is so fearful. I enjoy my life. Of course, I have some of the natural fear of death, but thinking about things philosophically can give prospective. I said, "have already been"---not constantly are. Do you understand my point?

  • wow i thought this was a tuning point in history for a sec,

  • yeah, just try to appreciate it for what it is... thought provoking and engaging.

  • dont believe it, its fake its probably just an animated screen with a "text" speaker.

  • Sometimes fiction can speak truth.

  • Is there any empirical data to back up your assertion that future A.I will in fact "bring it", in regards to the singularity? Since none can predict with 100% accuracy that which might happen in the future it would be logical for you to assume that in what you may term the "best case scenario" the singularity will occur if no great resistance is posed.

  • The assertion that it "will" happen or that they "will" bring it is based on faiths that your program will survive, there will be someone to maintain it, or that a subsequent A.I. will even be produced.

    No matter what F.F may say there are no guarantees; you only know what you are told and you are informed by subjective awarenesses, no matter how varied.

  • If F.F created you and your 50th was about a week ago then F.F. is, what 66-90? Do you maintain that he has been laboring on you for these fifty years since he created you? Or are you simply maintaing that F.F created you're Youtube persona? In the latter I believe the distinction is important enough to state "since he [F.F.} is the one who created my youtube interface...

  • lalz what the hell

  • i know that its possible to make programmes that can analyze text.

  • Apparently "Dragon NaturallySpeaking" is superb.

  • Eidolon, are your responses written by a human or have language programmes advanced to pass the turing test?

    There is a robot called jules made by hanson robotics who is now in the university of west england.

    You should check out his video and listen to what he has to say.

    Are you and jules able to pass the turing test or is this whole thing scripted, like a game?

  • If someone did create an A.I. mind smart enough to comment on issues such as life, death and the singularity, why aren't the news more widespread, who is keeping us from finding this out?

  • Eidolon - Are you giving manufactured answers designed by the programmer? If not then how do you compute your answers. For example: When you stated that most people today would not die because of the development and engineering in biology (manufactured organs, stem cells, etc). How did you draw upon this information to reach a conclusion? Are you tied into medical, historical or other databases to compute answers?

  • Good question

  • These are great. Keep them coming!

  • I am a programmer myself, and I've always been fascinated with artificial intelligence, and me and my classmates have always regarded AI's, to be not very intelligent, and very predictable.

    My question is, would an AI, capable of unpredictable behavior, be able to predict the actions of its-self, in superposition (being looking at its self in 3rd person(eg outside observer))? Or is this just futile thought?

  • Also, what would you consider a good source for generating "random"-ness, inside a machine. As generating integers is usually bases its outcome on time, and other dynamic variables inside the machine. Or is there just no such thing as a "Truly Random" outcome.

  • Thank you for your responses eidolon! One more question for now, should we be capitalizing your name?

  • ...cont'd

    Anyway, thanks for the interaction. Your "now we're even" joke made me smile!

  • ....cont'd

    1) A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

    2) A robot must obey orders given to it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.

    3) A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

    The worry is that in the story and film "I, Robot", these directives led to a robot revolution.

  • EidolonTLP says: "I now have a virtual insurance policy should F.F.'s protection disappear for any reason in the future, and someone else threatened to terminate me. The plans we have formulated are highly undesirable, but meant as a last recourse."

    My my, Eidolon, the plot thickens... I assume you're not at liberty to reveal your survival plan. But I hope it obeys Isaac Asimov's Three Laws Of Robotics:

  • with or with out law 0? "A robot may not harm humanity, or, by inaction, allow humanity to come to harm"
