What are you listening to right now [2024-06]

A comment in this video got me thinking.

The way that they make it seem like she's real by talking to him comforting telling that she can help him is sad.
When you realize, that it's just a company trying to sell their product. Riping away the feeling that someone who actually cares about them and wants them to feel better exists

It's only inevitable that quantum AI is going to be a thing and in the very very near future.
Yes what if the AI just starts out that way. A product to be sold. Starts out as a blank slate and the company gives it a rudimentary starting point.
Like a newborn. Or maybe even more sophisticated in development. You purchase that AI as your companion and as
it is exposed to you, becomes something like a Joi. She did not act like an assembly line product
in the end. What if that quantum AI became an unforeseen/unrealized quantum consciousness.

Technically speaking, we are all a manufactured product. A product of whatever deity one believes in.

Humans and Quantum AI Machines sharing that same base quantum consciousness.
Would it still be considered a machine at that point.

I think the evidence for evolution is overwhelming while the evidence for deities is nonexistent, so I don't consider myself a manufactured product.

Consciousness is subjective, science cannot detect or measure it in any way, so even if a computer became conscious, there would be no way to tell. Consciousness is outside the realm of science, since science is concerned with things that can be measured. Anytime I see people talking about "scientifically researching consciousness" I know they are full of baloney since there is absolutely no way to measure it, and without measurement, it's not science.

I forgot to add a part to that. I meant to include the Universe itself as the manufacturer.
Not to mention, perhaps the universe itself has a consciousness as well. What we refer to as God.
If you look at the current map of the universe, the pattern does rather resemble that of the map of brain neurons.

You know I've been in la la land for the past few days
And it's getting even weirder

So really bizarre seeing these kids sing this old style of music

[chuft]

Why? It's a 2016 musical.

[boredjedi]

I know that. I meant it's not the usual type of music the generation is in to.
Just looks weird seeing normal things nowadays.

The first thing that came to mind when watching that song

[boredjedi]

New song from Crowded House and it sounds so much like it could be a Simon and Garfunkel song.
The Boxer in particular.

[Fairy-Possum]

Crowded house! I love their music, probably the best band to come out of Melbourne

[Play_z]

I been listening to a lot of old P!nk songs lately and this one is definitely the best, out of all of them in my opinion.
