Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So, how’s it going?
This is part of The Fermi Paradox.
TL;DR: If the universe is ancient and infinite, where is everybody?
Super AI is one possible answer: Everyone creates it, is subsumed by it.
If you’ve got effectively unlimited computational power, you just simulate everything rather than having to explore it
Whoops I sorta responded to the wrong post with my thoughts but yes, maybe life loses all meaning if you have super AI. Or maybe they eventually put you in a version of the matrix after reasoning happiness is the only meaning of life and so they can optimise our happiness this way.
Maybe it has already happened.
It’s simulations all the way down.
