@vt3c Did you see that image I linked about the guy whose name sounded like a JavaScript programming library
Tuesday, 23-Jul-13 07:18:12 UTC from web -
@vt3c You're wrong.
Tuesday, 23-Jul-13 07:19:03 UTC from web -
@vt3c I'm not smart.

@pegasusjones you would have to deal with the "wants" of the machine though and the "need to be long" and the "need for socialism" half the brain sould probably be teared out

@vt3c the processin of the brain is over a billion times larger than thatbof earth elements supplied with millions of electrons

@vt3c jQuery. As in $('.notice').append('butt').addClass('butt').prepend($('<span id="butts"></span>').html('yiu fcae is like a'+$('#buttcontainer').html());

@redenchilada cherries I FORGOT TO CLOSE A PARENTHESIS
Tuesday, 23-Jul-13 07:28:12 UTC from web -
@redenchilada lmao, hardly even know what that means
Tuesday, 23-Jul-13 07:29:25 UTC from web-
@thechihuahuax It means your fcae looks like a butt
Tuesday, 23-Jul-13 07:29:56 UTC from web-
@redenchilada ik i got that, but the java script is what i dont understand, most code has about the same syntax so you can understand it partially

@pegasusjones im sure the first problem would be the machine overheatig itself or automatically turning itself off, and also a power outage would kill it since the brain and the heart needs a small electrical charfe that always goes through the body and without organs it is not there, or so i believe
Tuesday, 23-Jul-13 07:28:08 UTC from web-
@thechihuahuax CMOS have been doing that for decades.

@pegasusjones Possible? It is more than possible. Do we have the skill needed to make it a reality? That's the question.

@nerthos We already do have limited scale neural emulation. A number of supercomputers are devoted to the task. Last time I checked we could just about emulate the brain of a rat.
-
@ceruleansquawk Then, it's just a matter of time. The main issue is not developing neural emulation capable of complex thought, but to find how to remove the capability of performing certain processes to keep control over those systems.
Tuesday, 23-Jul-13 07:35:26 UTC from web-
@nerthos Neural emulation is a really inefficient way to build a digital conciousness because the human brain itself is hilariously inefficient.
-
@ceruleansquawk Yeah, but it's a great way to study how to modify human brains to make our species better.

@nerthos I would prioritise upgrading people physically so that talented individuals have longer lifetimes in which to solve the problem of human transcendence.
-
@ceruleansquawk My priority would be porting telomerase to humans, which is not easy because a way to control cells so they don't become cancer is needed. Doing that would give humans relative immortality.

@ceruleansquawk but the proccessing power is off the scale

@thechihuahuax Quick, what's (2*5/3+sqr(5^2+cos(45deg))-tan(89deg))^0.4+log2(8)
Tuesday, 23-Jul-13 07:40:55 UTC from web-
@redenchilada pi
Tuesday, 23-Jul-13 07:42:23 UTC from web -
@redenchilada google says 4.46439293 + 4.50693803 i
Tuesday, 23-Jul-13 07:43:03 UTC from web -
@redenchilada im not in full algebra yet... so i have no idea of cos is

@thechihuahuax Perhaps, but given that 2/3rds of it winds up occupied by keeping you from suffocating and soiling yourself, it's somewhat wasted.

@oracle That's like saying "Well add a safe to the gun once we shoot ourselves accidentally"
Tuesday, 23-Jul-13 07:37:11 UTC from web -
@oracle Hopefully I'll have my plasma sword by then, more than enough to melt any rogue AI.
Tuesday, 23-Jul-13 07:40:27 UTC from web -
@oracle Wait, why do you think I wouldn't limit a person's conciousness? In any case, the answer is "to keep our species as the rulers of this world"
Tuesday, 23-Jul-13 07:41:33 UTC from web -
@oracle Don't worry, I vocaly oppose "voting"
