EMO from Alibaba delivered this months ago. The demos from EMO look better than Vasa-1. How do you feel Vasa-1 compares to EMO?     See Less

You can see an example of how humans anthropomorphize existence by believing in a "soul/consciousness".
There is no difference between a human and a blade of grass. It's al     See More . We run across a field to get some lemonade as a child and we 'heedlessly' crush insects in "our path".

Death is only as glorious or tragic as a blade of grass being stepped upon. We are the artificial intelligence of the universe that can rearrange its constituents/minerals/atoms into novel and complexifying patterns. T Mckenna thought that "novelty" was the driving force behind reality. If you look at mathematical patterns that never retrace their steps it looks just like a mandala, which is a Hinduist representation of reality. We are trying to 'connect the dots of the stars.'

Seeing reality on more than one plane of consciousness simultaneously is necessary to understand.

Love is like a new form of gravity that brings together minds. It shapes the universe. One day we realize there is nothing special or tragic about humanity.

We can be 'reduced' to a 'thinking machine'. Or we can choose to train our cosmic consciousness. (I think Ghost in The Shell was about this question of -- at what point does an AI become human or vice versa?) The point is an illusion.

Points do not really exist because there is no real main observer in a superposition of the universe to point and say: That is the point. Wiki: Indra's Net

SO, if points don't exist -- then you (as the self-aware, self-contained 'you') don't 'really' exist. You are a part of a continuum. Even saying the word 'part' excludes this idea of continuum. Language is fascinating -- you can see how we view reality through it. We have this language that is founded around temporal constraint, with its 'tenses' of past, present and future. It makes it harder for us to see 'big picture mode" (multiple planes of consciousness converging) Thereby reinforcing the sense of ego and feeling separate from everything.

tldr; we monopolized consciousness in order to protect our ego from the fear of infinite nothingness that we call 'death.'

Bruh I wish they would just release some services of this. Just do id checks, charge money, etc.. bah     See Less

Her AI: the first large language model purpose built to nag you incessantly and pick apart your deepest insecurities.     See Less

Isn’t it rather “Signal from Noise” or “Noise to Signal”?? 🤔     See Less

Considering that at the end of "Her" the OS's start running on a non-physical substrate before leaving humanity forever, I don't think that'll happen in 2025.     See Less

Vasa is interesting. Wish you could type a sentence and the model is able to use the sample audio clip and the text to talk. I am sure it has its downsides as well. Imagine someone who has s     See More irment is now able to use this to converse.    See Less
