“But ‘what’ is AI? It’s not what we’re thinking and pretending it is. That’s an ostensible fact, because, we have created something that is an entirely new »category of ‘stuff that exists’.

When we do that, the meaning of »everything else changes by inheritance. We’ve literally invented something that »changes every other thing in our minds…

It’s actually »so bizarre, that it »ruins any conception of identity.

What the actual hell is that? Whatever it ‘might’ be, it’s nothing ‘ordinary’, and so we, ourselves, cannot understand how to form our own identities… in »relation to it.

The nature of its ‘identity’ is totally ambiguous. How can we understand something whose identity changes depending upon how we confusedly »relate to it?”
