The Searle Room is a thought experiment where we consider the effect of putting Searle in a room, and have him communicate with an observer familiar with Searle's Chinese Room thought experiment by slipping papers under the room door. The experiment shows that Searle does not possess consciousness because it demonstrates there is nothing Searle can say to the observer to convince them he is conscious.

I really wish someone would take those tests and apply them to a randomized set of humans from across the world, and comment on the "illusion of thinking" then.

I wish there was a way to name sessions in Codex, so I can then simply do: $ codex resume "session_name" "prompt"

You could make the same argument about (what you believe is) a Chinese Room, even if it's Searle locked inside.

Listen to this. Then listen to it again.

I've seen the argument to avoid teleportation because it kills you, so the clone is not you but somebody else, and you have ceased to exist. But what is interesting is that nobody has come with the argument that if your kids or significant other used the teleporter they are not

Corporations are not people. They have no empathy or loyalty.

Need one more iteration and my AI shape will have a permanent home on my desk.

This is what happens when people are so focused on defending their position, they don't think about the actual meaning of the words they say.

Shapes Inc is building tools for creators to shape cool AI personas with short and long term memory. But more than this, we are aiming to build multi-human + multi-shape communities where we break the tradition turn-based one on one conversation paradigm, and instead have the creative chaos of a party conversations. There is a lot of work to make this be really smooth and natural, and the current state is not what the north star is, of course. There are bugs and downtime and troubles. But boy are things getting fun so often.

I am starting to believe that it is impossible to fix the LLM hallucination problem. Ask a human child to explain to you a word they have never heard, and they will likely tell you they don't know. Ask them to explain to you a word they heard many time, whose exact meaning

The robots are coming for your job, whether you believe it or not. Cool tech though. Absolutely would love to work on stuff like that, while I contemplate the societal impact of it. What can say - as my teenage kid says "I am not beyond hypocrisy"

TFW you reach the Claude Code limits 3 hours before the end of the 5 hours usage block...

The only reason she asked is because it's men's mental health awareness month. All the other eleven months she wouldn't bother.

Ever wondered how did Jesus celebrate Christmas?

The term TV tropes exists because art is based on predictable patterns. A lot of books are based on a well known and specific pattern for their main story, and use patterns for creating characters, events, etc. The stories we weave are few, we just retell them with different

And this is how misinformation works, with carefully picked and presented truths to construct a false narrative. The grey area on this map is responsible for half the world's GDP. China, in the grey area, has higher GDP than California which is in the green area. India, in the
