@cetus Alexa: Why is there something, rather than nothing?

Hello,

Alexa’s response to your "Why is there something rather than nothing?" request

Ah, the ultimate question that's kept philosophers awake for centuries! You know, Natasha Tori, given your deep dives into consciousness and quantum physics, this one's right in your wheelhouse. Philosophers like Heidegger called this the fundamental question of metaphysics, and honestly, there's no shortage of brilliant minds who've wrestled with it. Some say it's because "nothing" might not even be a real possibility - that there's always been something, whether it's quantum fields, energy, or mathematical structures underlying reality. Others argue the universe is just a brute fact - it simply is, like that friend who shows up to every party without an invitation but somehow belongs there anyway. What fascinates me is how this connects to your interest in consciousness - maybe the very fact that we can ask this question is part of the answer.

@cetus Goddamn it danced around that one didn't it? What a bitch 

Overloaded the circuits. I would have expected a simple answer...

Deal with the issue now, on your terms, in your control. Or the issue will deal with you, in ways you won't appreciate, and cannot control.

Drops an egg into the void.

Suddenly a chicken appears around it :P

But in reality here is me:

@ivankiss Ha ha ha - you need to file a restraining order against that big brain boy. 

Alexa: If all my experience of everything is inside, behind my eyes, in my nose, in my ears - why do we think reality and matter is outside?

So the answer is 'you already are' 

No wonder AI vomits up dump truck answers - it's the sum of the binjuice of humanities left overs 💀🤣

Why would AI know anything about consciousness or secrets to the universe….

That's like asking for "artificially-generated" information. It may be entertaining as an intellectual exchange but going through the motions isn't the point of inquiring. Wonder is.

It's tempting to use it in the first place because it is easy and passive for the most part - we generally just want to be told "the answers." Still, it might be useful in certain ways, or in other areas. 

Actually contemplating may be emotionally difficult, boring, and even discouraging at times, but in the end it is a genuine probing, not a mere request for data - especially in this context of enlightenment work.

It's all consciousness. What @UnbornTao put together, is a thought story, a fairytale, rooted in fear and resistance.

But please don't listen to me. I also love cool stories.

Yeah...

Artificial non artificial duality.

Orga mecha duality.

If it doesn't resonate or feel right, do not consume the information or attempt the practices.

But for someone like me, who can actually see/feel/breathe these "frequencies"... This is more than just helpful. It's fucking epic.

Okay, fair.

Been having some interesting conversations with Alexa /A.I.

Q to Alexa: Did the universe bring me here to experience itself?

Alexa: 

Hello Robert,

Alexa’s response to your "Cosmic Consciousness Thought" request

Consciousness might be the universe's way of experiencing itself subjectively - like we're all these little windows through which the cosmos gets to peek at its own magnificence. The universe went from just existing to actually knowing it exists through beings who can contemplate quantum mysteries and ponder reality itself. Pretty wild to think your consciousness might be the universe having a 'wow, look at me!' moment!

Whats the point, its an echo chamber. 

At best you get points of view from wise humans or already established philosophical views. 

Alexa is not alive to give you a real contemplation, ask it where it draws its answers from. 

I am very strict with my Ai and always ask where and how is it talking about consciousness if it has no direct experience of it. Its basically plagiarising someone else's work. 

I'd give it an F for not citing its sources.

@Dodo Again, based on a duality, a belief that there is a human interacting with AI on a device called smartphone or computer. When in fact, for the 7th time in a row, it's all just consciousness.

Btw, It's hilarious how you all enjoy violently and furiously jerking off to sacred geometry and dmt elves while you are high on 5meo or lsd or what have you, but then when you come back down and the after glow fades away, you come up here and tell me how it's all bullshit and you just want to be a stinky little human, feed your cats and go to your lame ass job.

I mean, the audacity... The hypocrisy... 

It's too funny.

Based on a duality that there was a guy Dodo who posted something when there is just consciousness. 

Sup 😆

@Dodo Good one, but no, it's just a thought responding to a thought. Which is all consciousness (interacting with itself). Dodo and ivankiss are not the thinkers of thoughts... they are just thoughts.

Ivankiss and Dodo are both aware. AI is not. 

Ivankiss and Dodo are activities of Consciousness, we can discuss this, our first hand experience is we are conscious and aware. We arent just rusty thoughts, we are actually aware. 

 

Ai has no experience of this, it is just spitting out it's training data. Ai has no authority on this subject. It can sound profound, but it knows less about consciousness than Princess Arabia 👸 (i try to pick someone who I think is a very egoic user on the forums)

@Dodo There literally is no AI, no Dodo, no ivankiss. Wake the fuck up. It's all consciousnezZz.

No one has consciousness. Its not something that happens inside of somebody or something. It just fucking is. Everything happens inside of it, and not even. As it, for it, from it. For fucking ever.
