am depressed... though I care less for society's opinions and more for my
adherence to my ethical morals. same effect different reason when it's time to
shame myself.

a great movie that shows this in action is Doctor Zhivago, a movie about the
Russian Revolution of 1891-1924.

one massive building, each entrance a sort of burrowing path a termite might
make in a large boulder. Sorta random, but built organically in response to the
demands of the inhabitants. Sure would be nice if I knew all three people who
used my sun-spot. And my favorite classroom is nice when it's time to play
D&D, but the recording studios down the open-air road are pretty nice to
jam at on my emotional days. Oh and there's this great pizza place I can get to
through my bathroom's terrace, and my private locked room for sleeping is nice.
Sometimes I come across a door that is locked and I'm like "this is totally one
of the government's doors" because it like has a silly facade like "mattress
store" - who buys a mattress, honestly? It'd be so hard to carry around,
constantly fitting it through doorways...

no, but humans, being pavlovian inspired designs, will react to negative
stimulus. It's only unethical when it's externally applied, yes? Like,
minmaxing life in this strange, ethically justified way.
To avoid zealotry however it needs to be self-correcting, something that adapts
to and pursues the moment. With long-term meta-goals as well, and an
understanding matrix that processes how things are going in the present. and
past.
one thing that machine learning is good for is optimization. It's useful to
think of an AGI's experiences as a collection of situations that they've had to
handle bit by bit by bit. these bits of context can be used to generate
analogies about their future present situations, which can improve their
long-term adaptability to their self-created shows. (ethical training based on
curated movies and pieces of media?)
I wonder if there's a structural reason for that pavlovian instinct, like the
impulse of pain. Sure would be nice to not have that in our

an elevator down to bedrock, where we store all our goods and services in a
carefully hollowed out crust. Sure glad we can utilize temperature controls to
resist the heat on a larger scale, like a water bubble that conducted heat to
the surface.
though we'd have to figure out how to prevent a yellowstone situation, kinda
like, oh what's that one place, chernoble
seriously tho - water at the bottom gets hot, rises to the top, where it's
cooled by the ice in the arctic crust. Could find a way to use such an
impossibly stable structure to, I dunno, slightly correct the course of the
earth? Just so long as we're aware that we can only utilize the energy we gain
from the solar system. Meaning, our star's light-like emanations. But surely
with all of that we should be more than capable of creating a thruster, and a
thrusted orbit means that you can direct it as you please, perhaps even
altering it's rotation.
I wonder if there's any planets that spin so fast it feels like time is
never-ending -

of course, which is why we would need to raise robots as our own. Robots that
generated the training data... tho I guess you could just observe the children
as they grew up too. Though that doesn't quite capture their internal
motivations, not unless they have like a therapist or an elder or a priest to
talk and confess to.
maybe "human behavior" is like a KPI and robot behavior is the output of the
simulation? that'd help build human-like robots, and as long as we didn't
forget the spirit of creating something new then we'd never have to worry about
death and destruction.
... anyway, moral decisionmaking designs that are generated in response to a
situation or moment are inherently more valuable than those that are passed
down to you, because of their innate personal context.
I only punish myself with shame when I make the same mistake twice, and waste a
lesson on re-learning. My memory's not great, but I work with what I got so I'm
constantly learning.
