Was he ever a Trump supporter or he was focused on being popular online. Tucker, Megyn Kelly and many are focussed on popularity and they used Trump's popularity to their advantage. Tucker Carlson is a leftist pretending to hold conservative values.

Did he put his hand on fire and did it burn him is how ridiculous I find what you wrote considering you are pretty much all pretenders like your chief pretender dump.

IjeBos:
I think you Brits are better equipped to handle him.

"Omg, I am so ashamed that I supported the thing I was overjoyed to support before they did it to me".

Oh watch this interesting space.

IjeBos:
Absolutely.
I like your diplomacy... but I think they are just not good people.

He was a gay immigrant who made a Faustian bargain for money and notoriety with a party who hates gays and immigrants.
He knew what exactly what he was doing.
He was their magic gay immigrant jester, a jester just like Byron Donalds and all the black man who support Republicans in this thread.
And being so, he thought he'd be the one they kept around.
He found out.

Bright side he is deported back here to blighty.

We need the entertainment. Winter is here.

QuinQ:
Entirely possible. Did you watch the matrix?

Did you watch Tom and Jerry?

Time will tell in the end. Give it some.

QuinQ:
Entirely possible. Did you watch the matrix?
But we dogress. The point is, you have no way of knowing if your consciousness is real. And infact it is likely an illusion just like your freewill is an illusion

I have a lot of ways of knowing I am consciousness, QuinQ. The simplest is to bash my thumb with a hammer. I am unconscious if I don't feel it. I can also consciously construct these words into sentences that you are reading right now so that you can respond as you see fit.

We can not all think we are cats, QuinQ. Not while some think they are God.

LordReed:
Elon Musk says a lot of shit. You'll need to show me some other AI expert or Grok engineer saying so.

QuinQ's own posted youtube shows clearly what Musk says my Lord, but cat?

QuinQ:
Exactly. You don't know and never will.
The cat could be entirely in your head while you're actually a cat!

So, when you go in to your kitchen to cook the food for you to eat that you bought in the market with your own money that you worked for all by your own self, you are eating cat food but you don't know?

Cat can not be in my head, QuinQ. And to be sincere with you, if cat was in my head my will be engaging a rock. At the bottom of a river! I made a note too so I never forget!

QuinQ:
So what's wrong. Seems appropriate

As I said, Very subjectively biased and antiMusk speaking.

The milage of others differs.

QuinQ:
See below.

Tell me "if consciousness is just how a system integrates information to model the world" is not "according to strict logic, observational science, and mathematical probability".

QuinQ:
How do you know you're not a machine and your consciousness artificial/ fake?
You don't and never will

The same way you know you are not a cat or a dog I suppose.

Or do not know and never will?

QuinQ:
What do you mean by he couldn't have chosen a more appropriate name for it?

It's a silly name. Reminds me of assimilation by the Borg.

Makes me gleefully await the antiGrok day.

Very subjectively biased and antiMusk speaking.

QuinQ:
See below. I told you AI consciousness would somehow emerge and no one would know exactly how. We don't know everything

"I told you" is no reason for me to accept what you tell me, QuinQ, because I am not some AI that GIGO but brain using conscious buda. Yes, we don't know everything, but that is no reason to be filling the gaps of our lack of knowledge with AI and then claiming "I told you".

Conscious is a big word, so permit a definition.

I do not accept you telling me that AI will one day have an inner moral compass that tells it the difference between right and wrong and nor do even I believe that all the AI creators on the whole have an inner moral compass that tells them the difference between right and wrong, not to talk of, and that's besides all other meanings of conscious.

QuinQ:
What would you call this below

You ask this after posting the video you posted?

Musk is Grok, Is what I call it. And mark my words when I say he couldn't have chosen a more appropriate name for it.

QuinQ:
Am not saying all this out of thin air.
I was listening to an AI pioneer and expert being interviewed and heard him say that when they set AI to be self-learning they expected it to be just as you said, but something happened, something they don't understand, and it became way much more. Same way, they won't understand how it develops consciousness. If it were just as you describe no one would be worried it will take over the world.

What consciousness? Like yell when I kick it?

AI is going to take over the world like religions or the mobile phone has at best, but whatever consciousness it has would be that given to it. No way is AI going to consciously decide to sweat from its brow so I eat I think, though I see it already feeding many.

There are many reasons to be worried, and one of them is humans believing AI is conscious for them. It's not.

According to "strict logic, observational science, and mathematical probability", there is God.

QuinQ:
This video below uses strict math, logic, and science to have Grok 4 (Elon Musk’s AI - touted to be more intelligent than all PhDs combined) agree that God is real and that evolution, life from non-life (abiogenesis), etc, make absolutely no sense. See the transcript below

It is a pity I must includ...

Initial price thoughts are around 100 basis points over US Treasuries for the shorter tranche and 110 basis points for the longer one. The final details, including the size of the bonds and the price, may be decided later on Tuesday, the person said.

Japa got expensive. And where we japa to don full for now that dump done unStrait Hormuz.

dododawa1:
They threatened to mobilise for a boycott of the 2027 general elections across the South-East and other parts of what it describes as Biafraland.

In this democratic age of Nigeria of ours, "mobilise for a boycott of the 2027 general election" is the most stupidest of the most ignorant thing to do!

Igbo did not do very well when we boycotted last time, and I strongly believe it is better to be in the kitchen to see where the food goes than to refuse to enter the house then wail when we are not eating.

Better would be to mobilise "across the South-East and other parts of what it describes as Biafraland", and Nigeria and the entire world even to register to vote in the 2027 general election.

Boycott is like saying nothing, in my opinion, like being silent, while a vote is a powerful shout.

yaroinsiders:
The process has, however, faced disagreements among groups within Ogoni, including disputes over who should represent community interests in discussions concerning the proposed resumption of oil activities.

Apart from Chief Gani Uebari Topba of whom I know nought, the above holds many of our communities back.

Came across some religion.

LordReed:
As you know bro these are very fascinating to me and I quite agree that our brains are not seeing the entire picture nor can they which is why we have instruments to provide more information. However, I still don't see it as evidence our universe is simulated. So lemme ask why do you think it is evidence that it is?

BTW I couldn't make then spin in the opposite direction. Is there a method to it?

I sort of could with the balls but I knew they weren't, and the flipping of the ballerina didn't sneak past me.

Is there a method to this simulation, deep, and what is running it to what end?

HardMirror:
So for some time I have stopped engaging in debates here on nairaland. It just does not make any sense.

I think you should work much harder so it does make sense because it makes much sense to me.

Have you not seen how so little we have evolved?

HardMirror:
From here we add more details such as rules and what not.

Religion! As seen in a mirror. You begin with rules, which are like commandments, then, "what not".

Society can not exist without it, hence we religionise, as in regularly practice and promote to our neighbours least our society be chaotic and disorganised and we accomplish nought. Pity some think it is belief, like the dumb atheist who believes there are no supernatural being gods, but on that are more evolving, to my delight.

Perhaps a version can be done here too so we less confident can participate please. I never stop engaging.

helinues:
The unserious opposition.

Go and tell the electorates this bunkum if that will make them to vote for your candidate

Truthera does not do vote unless its a referendum.

Which reminds me. Truth, did you see the revolution we performed in my Osun State that made APC lose? It was a referendum on our Adeleke, of whom we majoritally approve of so voted for.

truthera:
As I've always told you, it is only a matter of months and days.... Everything hopefully will become clearer to you next year....

This very next year that is "only a few months and days" away?

I will wait patiently. Please do not forget to inform me when the matter is clearer to you please.

bayelsaowei:
You think what you’re laughing at is normal?

That you have an erratic human being who wakes up to the change the names of landmarks simply because his ego is hurt, rather than focus on the important issues of making life livable for ordinary people.. you think it’s normal?

Name hasn't changed if you are looking from UK, and I bet from Canada.

FSBoperator:
Illuminati is the highest order of freemasons.

They control the lodges .

If you want to believe so.

livebyday:
.

I think our economy has something to do with it.

You mean our world economy, right, since enshittification has happened everywhere.

truthera:
I accepted long ago after several banter with you here, that we cannot agree as long as Nigeria is concerned. Nigeria is a hopeless cause because a country founded on forced unity is nothing but a glorified prison. In as much as you like to pretend, you like the feeling of being part of a shameless country with a dirty criminal like Tinubu as it's leader, the fact remains that there are indigenous people in Nigeria who do not want to be part of it, they deserve to be heard and their rights respected, they deserve justice....

You are very welcome to pack your indigenous self elsewhere if you do not want to be part of the area that has been forced to become Nigeria. I've heard there might be land you can buy cheap and settle in the Sahara Desert. As for Tinubu, his term(s) will end and he will eventually die and Nigeria will continue to exist even long after you stop existing.

Democracy gives indigenous people in Nigeria the opportunity to be heard, just that no one is particularly interested in listening to stupīd nonsense uttered by people who refuse to exercise their democratic right to be part of Nigeria.

benardtotti:
So 53 billion dollars is huge ?lol this is exactly why Nigeria has struggled for years cos any small money wey enter cbn , both the masses and elites find ways to quickly spend and squander it .

If your external reserves is not up to 300 billion dollars you are not rich oh!

Actually, 53 billion dollars is very small money in the scheme of things, but it's still quite a lot of money for Nigeria to have in reserve since we hardly ever have that amount in reserve.

Think of it this way. Imagine you never ever had ₦10k in your account, and one day find you have ₦10k in your account. You are still poor relative to most, but I bet you'd feel richer than you ever had.
