Are you able to explain succinctly what you mean by “selected” so that we can communicate? That page is pretty dense and opaque.

selected

What do you mean by that? What does it mean to “select” something in the context of a neural net with input nodes and output nodes?

the model was planning

How have you come to that conclusion?

LLM limitations like “they only predict the next token” and other things that have already been falsified

What do LLMs do beyond predicting the next token?

a movie to return them to Pegasus, which never happened

It happened in comic books instead.

Nobody knows. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_problem_of_consciousness

“niceness” from incels is very different from genuine niceness with no ulterior motive

I disagree.

its very easy to detect when someone is being Actually nice, and someone is faking a niceness.

That seems very naive to me.

one short two word sentence does not fit the rest of what he is saying

I disagree. The two word sentence fits precisely everything else he said, which seems to describe exactly the same behaviour with exactly the same end goal as he had originally. There doesn’t seem to be any difference between “before” and “after”.

versus being nice as a means toward being his better self

No, OP said “which worked”, which implies that his being nice was not just a means toward being his better self but also a means to get what he wanted from other people. Like before.

Not because it will gain you something.

OP saying “which worked” implies he hoped it would gain him something.

Everyone knows you’re not being nice, you’re trying to manipulate them.

I was trying to be nice so they would want to be with me, not because I wanted to be nice.

After that I worked on myself.

worked on being more pleasant to be around.

Just be nice to people and don’t expect anything

show interest in other people’s hobbies - genuinely.

Which worked. By being less self absorbed and focused on getting a girlfriend, I became someone who was attractive

I see, so rather than trying to make people want to be with you by being nice, you should be nice to people and then they’ll be attracted to you. Uhh… wut? Sounds like you haven’t changed at all.

trying to manipulate

Which worked

How is what you did “after” different from what you did “before”?

If we really can’t overcome it somehow, the rest of history is going to be at least as hellish as the past, and there’s nothing we can do about it.

You understand then.

we can start getting over the whole US and THEM thing

Unfortunately the “us and them thing” is an evolved aspect of human society. It’s not possible for humans to get past it because it’s literally in our DNA.

The Righteous Mind by Jonathan Haidt discusses this in detail.

Uhhh… u wot?

LOL bye now

It’s also kinda safe to assume someone posting in Linux gaming is talking about, well, Linux gaming.

If only that were so. Unfortunately, I’ve learned from experience that this is not the case.

LOL there’s a reason you can’t provide anything to back up what you’re saying
