Sounds like a fun work environment!

Sounds bad, but really isn’t that much worse than typical HR, who will rat you out to the CEO in a heartbeat.

RiF here, but agreed. (Now Voyager)

Smort.

Intentional misspelling of Epstein for plausible deniability?

I’m not trying to “win” anything, don’t try to dismiss me because you perceive you’re “losing” and you don’t understand word definitions.

Do you even know what semantics is? Do you want me to give you the definition of that, too? If you’re going to use it as a pejorative, you better learn the meaning of the word.

I’m telling you what the definition of simulation is so you understand why some of us are saying why Simulated Intelligence is the correct term, literally, since you seem focused on the literal. You’re the one who started arguing semantics (in your first comment), but got it wrong, by implying a simulation had to be the actual thing (“literally”) . Then I showed you that the definition of simulation is that it is an imitation, not the actual thing and you say I’m arguing “semantics”. Well yeah, that’s what we’re doing here, we’re both arguing the semantics of what it means to be Simulated Intelligence. If that’s not what you’re doing, then why did you comment at all?

The whole point of creating a simulation is that it doesn’t take the same amount of work as the actual thing, but it can - and it doesn’t have to be perfect - make you think it is the real thing. If it was perfect, then you’re done, you don’t have to make the real thing, and it’s no longer a simulation.

A flight simulator doesn’t actually fly. If it did, it would be an airplane.

Simulated Intelligence doesn’t actually have to be intelligent. If it was, it would be (Artificial) Intelligence.

You can say what we have is a bad simulation, but it’s still a simulation, and it’s a much better simulation than it is real intelligence. So Simulated Intelligence is the correct term.

Mimicry is what simulation is.

Definition 3a from Merriam-Webster: the imitative representation of the functioning of one system or process by means of the functioning of another a computer simulation of an industrial process

Yeah, those were my original thoughts. I think it would take some experimentation to see what works.

Maybe you just missed it for the first time. Voyager won’t restart it

It worked for me on Voyager…

Dev, but we’re all in this together!

Ding ding ding!

Probably, I didn’t get a lot of results when searching

I’ll let you guess what “my field” is.

What my friends think i do:

What my mom thinks I do:

What I think I do:

What society thinks I do:

What I really do:

Doesn’t seem to be catching on…

A simulation doesn’t have to be the actual thing. It implies it literally isn’t the true thing, which is kind of what you’re saying.

Simulated Intelligence is certainly more accurate and honest than Artificial Intelligence. If you have a better term, what is it?

What “Epstein files”?

I’d wager they don’t even know what you mean by “splitting an atom” and wouldn’t give a rat’s ass whether it released any energy.

Is that available somewhere?

Yeah I found the poster’s advice worked well. I.e. hold your finger between your eyes and the image and start focussing on your finger and them drop it away as the dots approach. It made me realize I wasn’t normally crossing my eyes (for say, magic eye images), I was looking past the image and kind of uncrossing my eyes.

With these ones, they definitely work by crossing your eyes.
