As AIs don't have the same origin as humans, it is basically inconceivable to me that they will ever share the internal processes underlying their "emotions" no matter how good they get at surface "emoting", in my opinion this makes it impossible to have a true connection/meaningful relationship with them as humans, even if many people in the future will fail to see this, but otherwise I largely agree with your post (a brain implemented in silicon could be a meaningful friend to a human (eg ems), people will prob fully integrate AIs into the social scene (this is a mistake in my view), people will modify their brains in (what now seems like) radical ways).
I just straight up don't believe the codeforces rating. I guess only a small subset of people solve algorithmic problems for fun in their free time, so it's probably opaque to many here, but a rating of 2727 (the one in the table) would be what's called an international grandmaster and is the 176th best rating among all actively competing users on the site. I hope they will soon release details about how they got that performance measure..
Tangential, but my immediate reaction to your example was "ugly kitten? All kittens are cute!", so I searched specifically for "ugly kitten" on Google and it turns out that you were right! There are a lot of ugly kittens even though I never saw them! This probably says something about society..
3 (not so easy) steps to understand consciousness:
epistemic status: layman, so this is unlikely to have any value to those well-versed in philosophy, but their input is ofc appreciated if given
1. Understand what difficult words like consciousness and qualia point to. This is hard because most of our words point to objects/relations in the physical world and "what it is to be like someone/sth"/"the blueness of blue" does not. I've seen people first getting acquainted with these words have trouble disentangling these concepts from things in the physical world, eg: signals travelling through nerves. However, these people aren't usually that interested in philosophy of mind much anyways. The weirdness of consciousness is... (read 631 more words →)
I really enjoyed Brandon Sanderson's Secret Project #3 and I recommend it to everyone. Without spoiling anything, here is a fun fact: In it, people stack pebbles into heaps; similarly to Sorting Pebbles Into Correct Heaps, a text from this community I still think about semi-frequently (another is The Virtue of Silence). So if you take recommendations from random lesswrong users, give it a try!
I didn't believe it, so I tried to reproduce. It actually works. Scary..

Thanks and that's fair. I would have liked to bet mostly as a hedge to allow myself to not think about aliens in the next 10 years (I semi-regularly get roped into investigating some claims, but the UFO community's epistemics is the worst I've seen and it is always an awful experience), but the bet wasn't really positive EV for me either, so I don't think I will bet at worse odds, but you can probably find someone on the r/UFOs subreddit if you want, some of them seem to be celebrating the new world order now.
It's particularly interesting from 5:30: if I'm not misunderstanding him, he implies that they found extra-terrestrial bodies inside the landed/crashed vehicles, which makes me think this is deliberate misinformation. Why would an advanced entity, capable of traveling between stars, separate their body from their spacecraft? Not impossible, but encountering this evidence is much more likely imo if they are crafting a story from common memes about aliens rather than reporting something actually real.
If your offer isn't just to lc, then I accept: My 20 usd against your 20*99=1980 usd, both sides adjusted for inflation and the time value of money using US Treasury Bills, paid either at 2033.06.06. or when you admit a conclusive proof was found. Are these terms acceptable?

Have P proxy and V value. Based on past observances P is correlated with V.
Increase P! (Either directly or by introducing a reward to the agents inside the system for increasing P, who cares)
Two cases:
P does not cause V
P causes V
Case 1: Wow, Goodhart is a genius! Even though I had a correlation, I increased one variable and the other did not increase!
Case 2: Wow, you are pedantic. Obviously if the relationship between the variables is so special that P causes V, Goodhart's law won't apply. If I increase the amount of weight lifted (proxy), then obviously I will get visibly bigger muscles (value). Booring! (Also, I'm really good at seeing causal... (read more)
delta. some were actually funny. i've heard that you can post on the site with a simple post request though, so a lot of these are probably humans pretending to be ai.
