Yes but they made a DLC apologizing for Roiland's involvement which killed off the characters he voiced.

Saying "Oh that's just near death. Never mind that we are seeing active consciousness where none should exist."

Isn't that just moving the goal post at the end of the day?

As far as I see there are correlations with the brain, but until I see a smoking gun I don't feel it appropriate to say causation.

However I don't think anyone out there, even the most diehard believer in whatever mysticism you fancy would go as far as to say there aren't correlations.

That said correlations appear to be all there are.

Edited for clarity

I believe it is something simple we do not yet have the capacity to measure and that which can not be recreated as an AI.

Why do I believe it exists? Because I experience it constantly.

I am going to tell you something based on a true story about a spring in Rome believed to cure disease. For centuries even after the fall of the Empire fell people flocked to it believing the Gods blessed it with healing properties.

The scientific minded said bad to the whole thing and assumed it nothing but a legend that fools took stock in. However people continued to come and be healed, no one could explain it.

Until the invention of the Geiger Counter and the discovery of radiation.

The legend had been true all along. The spring had been mildly radioactive! It was killing off what was killing the patrons!

No one had anyway of knowing until suddenly they did.

I believe conciousness to be a similar story that we haven't seen the end of. Perhaps free will is one as well.

I dunno we still see things like Terminal Lucidity and NDEs all the time.

The problem with Emergentism is that it doesn't really have evidence beyond throwing our hands up and going "We can't find anything in there that causes it but we see there's conciousness. So... it just emerges somehow"

It's just "spontaneous generation" (what people believed before Germ Theory) for the brain. It's very "God of the Gaps" in a way.

I'd sooner put stock into the Orch-OR theory than take emergentism too seriously.

Surprising, I didn't think any IP made by Roiland was getting to continue.

Black holes are a good example of information destruction.

That was actually debunked https://www.quantamagazine.org/the-most-famous-paradox-in-physics-nears-its-end-20201029/

Unless I still misunderstand.

I'm sorry, maybe I'm just dumb, but I didn't think information could be destroyed.

I've sadly ran into this kind of thing before.

I'll never forget the assholes I found on Reddit who tried to say that it's wrong to push for LGBT Rights especially outside of the US because it was "Pushing Western Values where they don't belong, like a colonizer!"

These people will come up with any excuse to be dickbutts.

LGBT Rights are based and cool, and anyone who unironically uses the term "Biological Male" is not arguing in good faith

Right? I just know she's gonna pull some Heathers Reboot shit.
