Re:The notion of AI existing is heretical (Score 1)

But maybe it isn't even a limitation worth mentioning. I am a product of my environment, and I could be nothing but what I am. Isn't that true, regardless of if all the factors of consciousness are determined? Time is only an illusion, I still only live in a Universe where I make one choice at a time. But does that mean I can't enjoy my choices as unique? They are. My experiences are unique. I may be the only machine to ever be the focus of a particular insight. I say that's pretty good.
