Yes you do... Like I say, "is no-one reading my signature?"???

You've certainly slipped past an answer... 🙄

What exactly does constitute a sustainable lifestyle? And we have enough history to know why Trump and his cohorts, are just wrong...

Growth has nothing to do with it, because the economy will grow with it, as proven by history, and fair share is a purely political issue. Niether need be a problem, but "Houston, we have a problem"... I feel like the only real response to any argument, for some sort of status quo approach to this problem, is to flash them my signature, with a cheeky hint of more. "as that they who are about mee, and see my state, may have caused it to toll for mee, and I know not that." I'm starting to feel like no one even reads my signature🖖

The djinn might try and wriggle out of it by making the schools bullet proof and impossible to enter with a gun. But that's ok, we get 3 goes... I wish the school mass shootings in American, would stop. The fact that you all find this question funny, in the general philosophy forum, is very interesting. I'm not sure what to make of it. 🤔

I wish the school mass shootings in American, would stop. I think that would have the djinn stumped, it would have to severely limit gun ownership and the number guns per owner and the number of bullets in the clip, at the very least; and how could that possibly be it be twisted to backfire on the wishee?

Ironing, should not do that...🖖

Indeed, Ultimately it's a message in a bottle, if the bottle is properly corked. For instance, as previously discussed, we've been sending out radio waves for X number of year's, none of which is discernable by Voyager, because the universe is full of noise...

The djinn would grant your wish with a lotto win, it covers your dream without impinging your families level of comfort; but the national lottery only has one real winner, the national lottery. Because it's a voluntary tax on the overly optomistic, which harms the very people you seek to help; and even if you win every week, you couldn't help more people than it harm's. Would your second wish put that right? I wish that too, but don't you get angry when your honest opinion is treated with derision? I'm only human after all...

It's impossible to tell, there is no measurement of consciousness that has any meaning between species...

Indeed, I've read your input on a few topics, most recently a climate related one.

The ability to think beyond one's programming.

AI isn't intelligent... Any more than a lawn mower is intelligent because it knows how long to cut the grass...

I guess that depends on the spelling and meaning of programme.

I guess your happy, whatever shit you spout; good luck...😉 I thought it was implied, but I'm happy for you because you're naturally immune to scams. 🙂

I'm not sure what to make of this, are you for or against my position on this question?

OK, I guess disney has already covered this questionnaire, how to dodge the consequences and live happily ever after... But jokes aside, you've got 3 chances to get your own 'happily ever after', whatever that maybe, and each wish has a team of lawyers, from Yin-yang and partners, trying to find a loophole to get the djinn of the hook. So what do you think the lawyers would make of that? Is that your happy ever after?

My point is, a computer is a machine designed to achieve the objectives we give it, AI is a way to do it better; if you plug in the wrong programme you'll get the wrong answer's and if you plug it in to a machine 10,000 times more powerful, all you'll get is the wrong answer, faster... 😉 Which also covers sentience, because for every mad scientist villain, there's a Batman... 🙏🤞

Have you got a link to that story? I can't comment on the concern without context. How can you tell that your computer/phone isn't already sentient?

It depends on which half/third the Galgemesh decided to eliminate... God damn it, now I'm going to have to listen to"The hitchhikers guild to the galaxy" again. 😆

Am I, what is your definition of artificial?

LOL, how is that supernatural???

I think we have a vastly different interpretation of the word artificial and how we are different from nature. It's you who are playing dumb, I said " the number of humans on the planet" not, the number of potential humans on the planet, for example, a pregnant woman does not equal two human's on any spreadsheet...

And you are assuming that the world is greater than an island, in a world full of islands... Bolded mine: No you can't, you can only input what is known for it to make sense, hence the paradox of "where are they", when you find the evidence there is no paradox...

Well firstly, how did we manage that? Did we keep the fetus' in a box? And AFAIK the only way to artificially alter the number of humans on the planet, is murder and there's A LOT wrong with that. We could ask for volunteers, I assume you'd be first in the queue... 😇😉 He's talking more than that, which also affects the climate. 😉
