Hi.
Signal = wak.01.
I mean that LLMs they do something fundamentally different from experiencing their environment through senses, modeling their own thoughts and those of others as a matter of survival, and to posing and solving new problems.

I get into the question of consciousness a bit in this piece. Those I spoke to who study consciousness largely believe that LLMs work in a way that is at odds with how biological consciousness evolved. www.wired.com/story/ai-sen...

Of course. But unfortunately I think the current strategy may also pose a long-term risk to the strength of US companies and the US economy.

Seems pretty similar but also a bit stilted because of the political motivation many users had for leaving twitter
