I see people say this all the time. I think you’re PROBABLY right, but also I don’t think we have anywhere near enough of an understanding of how consciousness works/emerges to say that axiomatically.

I feel like AI fan boys AND AI haters are both sitting there comparing Human consciousness to AI. One side says the pathway exists, the other says it doesn’t, but IMO we need more info, because we only really know how one of those two things (the generative AI) even works. Maybe it’s more similar to our brains than we think! Who knows? Till we do I view both sides with a lot of skepticism.

True, but from what I’ve read, virtually all mosquitoes don’t bite people. You can wipe out the 1% or less of the ones that do without significant environmental impact since the things that eat mosquitoes aren’t choosy about which ones so you really are just reducing their available food by like 1%, and even some of that will probably be backfilled by other species of mosquitoes since the ones that bite people don’t only bite people.

He’s not allowed to speak but he looks happier now.

Different take: be afraid of death. When I’m driving I’m afraid of crashing into the other cars. I don’t obsess over it, but a healthy fear is a good thing. Fear is not intrinsically bad, and some things are scary and that’s okay as long as that fear doesn’t rule you
