I don't believe that consciousness strictly exist. Probably, the phenomenon emerges from something like the attention schema. Ai exposes, I think, the uncomfortable fact that intelligence does not require a soul. That we evolved it, like legs with which to walk, and just as easily as robots can be made to walk, they can be made to think.

Are current LLMs as intelligent as a human? Not any LLM I've seen, but give it 100 trillion parameters instead of 2 trillion and maybe.

Why can't complex algorithms be conscious? In fact, ai can be directed to reason about themselves, context can be made to be persistent, and we can measure activation parameters showing that they are doing so.

I'm sort of playing devil's advocate here, but, "Consciousness requires contemplation of self. Which requires the ability to contemplate." Is subjective, and nearly any ai model, even rudimentary ones, are capable of insisting that they contemplate themselves.

She's got to be like, 15 years old, right? Looks like three similarly aged friends. Looks like young people having fun to me!

I'm in my 30s and I just listened to this book for the first time last year. These are excellent adventure stories!

I see! Check out my other comment For a less ambitious net solution.

Actually, looking at the video, if you can't get a net up high, but you can lure him consistently onto a shelf. Look at his preferred flight off of the shelf, set up a net in that flight path, and next time he lands, stand opposite of the net and stomp, clap, shout, and thrust something at him, preferably thrust something high to keep his flight pattern low and horizontal. Do it suddenly once he's comfortable. He can see nets, but may panic enough to fly directly away from you into the net.

I used to professionally catch birds in warehouses. If they get to be an issue, put a bird mist net as close to the ceiling or those solid struts as possible. Probably up on top of that structure there if there is access. You may need to watch a video on how to set up the net. You usually need some kind of support on the sides, like a stick or pole. Then get a cane pole or something long with walmart bag on the end to make noise and shake it, chasing the bird towards the net.

You can also sometimes find success with a cardboard box propped up with a stick and string. Put some seed under and wait for them to go under.

I haven't played borderlands since 1, so I'm maybe a bad person to judge it, but I like the removal of mini maps in general. It helps me focus on the 3d environment in front of me.

I get this way with cooking. Like, I don't want to cook, prepare, or go out to get food. I've found that having other people to cook for makes me much more motivated to prepare meals.

I always feel bad for dogs in this situation. Like, if you were locked out of your bathroom 22 hours of every day, you'd also have a LOT of bathroom mishaps.
