I remember in your book you had this insight that, even if consciousness-in-silico would be embodied, that it would still miss some metabolic sense of life that living cells have. Is this still your position?

Favourite Bull Bryson books?

Did you end up going with the Decent?

@cstross.bsky.social check it out! 🙌

And I realise that you might actually talk about this in the book (and that I just haven’t gotten to that part)!

I have a weird thing where I can’t remember things as well when I listen to it as opposed to reading it (I guess this is normal).

Are you completely off X now?
