On one hand, I love the hubris of some inflated tech CEO thinking he could change 2000 years of Catholic doctrine on the nature of the soul in one meeting.

On the other hand, it does bring up interesting questions about AI, the nature of consciousness, the existence of the soul, etc. What do you think?

I think people who are into religion are not awakened at all.

The nature of consciousness cannot be understood with consciousness ( and it can, but not in the way people expect )

I have an understanding of Infinity and i still dont know if there is a soul and what it is. Its the #1 burning question for me. Meanwhile it could be just a silly human invention.

And i dont care about theories. I want to know like i know physical reality. But dude, physical reality is just consciousness too! Yes. Words.

You know souls aren't real because he didn't burst into flames upon entering the church.

I think Dario should convert catholics while he's in prison. He has even less(0) computer science education than Altman(2 years), these guys are frauds. His call for a pause screams that he knows he's over sold their abilities.
