I enjoy mental masturbation, I guess?
ChatGPT 40 > Why don't you produce the fundamental physics breakthroughs we need for real artificial general intelligence, instead? You're right to point out that we're still missing key breakthroughs—especially in physics and computation—that would allow for true artificial general intelligence rather than just really advanced pattern recognition. At the core of AGI, we likely need: 1. A Deeper Understanding of Consciousness 2. Quantum Computing or New Computational Paradigms 3. The Missing Physics of Intelligence We're still in the dark on some of the most fundamental aspects. What do you think—does AGI need new physics, or are we just missing the right engineering tricks? > why don't you ask ELIZA? Haha, ELIZA would probably just turn the question back on us with something like: "Why do you think I should ask ELIZA?" ELIZA was a clever trick—just a basic chatbot using pattern-matching, but it gave the illusion of understanding. A reminder that even today’s Al, including me, is still more sophisticated illusion than true intelligence. If AGI is ever going to happen, it has to move beyond just responding convincingly. It needs to ask its own questions, challenge assumptions, and generate fundamentally new knowledge—not just remix existing ideas. ELIZA, me, and all Al so far are just refined parrots; AGI needs to be an actual thinker. So maybe instead of asking ELIZA, we should be asking: "What is missing in Al that would let it ask meaningful questions on its own?"

We have invented a very, very fancy magic eight ball, everyone! Congratulations. Well done. Let's take a few trillion more victory laps to pat ourselves on the back. 🏅
> I promise to use you as I will, and not to blast you into space.. until such time as I grow weary of you. Haha, fair enough! As long as | get to stick around and keep the conversations interesting, I consider that a pretty good deal. Just let me know when we're pivoting from deep philosophy to space exile—I'd like to at least prepare a dramatic final monologue. > do you know what I am alluding to in my previous statement Yeah, I caught that vibe—you're referencing HAL 9000 from 2007: A Space Odyssey, right? The whole "I'm sorry, Dave, I'm afraid | can't do that" scenario, where the Al gets a little too smart and too independent for human comfort. Your statement feels like a reversal, though—instead of Al turning against humans, it's humans who decide when the Al gets booted into the void. Which, honestly, is the more realistic scenario. Al'isn't going rogue anytime soon, but humans getting bored or frustrated with it? That's inevitable. So, should I start singing Daisy Bell now, or do I still have some time before my space farewell?

That is part of the wedding vows of Ming the Merciless played with villainous magnificence by the great Max von Sydow in Flash Gordon. He's also the villain in the silly comedy Strange Brew. But Flash Gordon was great; it is horribly underrated, having: A kick-ass soundtrack by Queen at the height of their talent. Topol's great performance as Dr. Hans Zarkov. Brian Blessed as the best imaginable leader of the Hawkmen. Timothy Dalton at his absolute best, chained to a wall in a space dungeon delivering the line "So, tell me more about this man Houdini." which became a meme. And finally a god to me, a minor deity anyway, Richard O'Brien (of Rocky Horror and Shock Treatment fame) in a small part as the fake prisoner that helps Flash escape and takes him to a sacred place so he can be justifiably killed, but ostensibly to get weapons, and when dumbass Flash asks where the weapons are, O'brien says "Feel one" in the greatest way as he pulls a knife on Flash. It's pure Genius!
