Yeah, I think we've already achieved human-like AI, simply because of how low the bar is set by humanity. People tend to overrate the human experience IMO. Part of that is tied up in people's belief in souls and whatnot

This book, I assume? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Echopraxia_(novel)

I'll have to check it out, I don't think I've read any of his stuff before, but I've heard Blindsight recommended a lot

We welcome new users! We've got a signup process to keep out spam, but it's really basic. You just have to answer 3 questions and not have it be obviously AI slop. We're generally pretty quick about approving new users, and if we're not for some reason you can ping me, @[email protected] or @[email protected].

We've got a welcome thread to point you in the right direction if you're new to the discuss.online and/or the Fediverse: https://discuss.online/post/16318079. If chat is your thing, we've also got a chatroom at https://matrix.to/#/#online.discuss:discuss.online

Lastly I'll plug the [email protected] community that I help mod as well. I just posted the weekly How was your week in the US? thread and asked how many geese everyone thinks they could take on.
