You could also correlate it to live billboards in that exact area so your target audience will see them in real time. I’m not a fan of this, it sounds terrible. But it’s coming, and I still don’t think people have realized how unprecedented the AI shift is going to be, it will affect everything.
It's becoming clear that with all the brain and consciousness theories out there, the proof will be in the pudding. By this I mean, can any particular theory be used to create a human adult level conscious machine. My bet is on the late Gerald Edelman's Extended Theory of Neuronal Group Selection. The lead group in robotics based on this theory is the Neurorobotics Lab at UC at Irvine. Dr. Edelman distinguished between primary consciousness, which came first in evolution, and that humans share with other conscious animals, and higher order consciousness, which came to only humans with the acquisition of language. A machine with only primary consciousness will probably have to come first. What I find special about the TNGS is the Darwin series of automata created at the Neurosciences Institute by Dr. Edelman and his colleagues in the 1990's and 2000's. These machines perform in the real world, not in a restricted simulated world, and display convincing physical behavior indicative of higher psychological functions necessary for consciousness, such as perceptual categorization, memory, and learning. They are based on realistic models of the parts of the biological brain that the theory claims subserve these functions. The extended TNGS allows for the emergence of consciousness based only on further evolutionary development of the brain areas responsible for these functions, in a parsimonious way. No other research I've encountered is anywhere near as convincing. I post because on almost every video and article about the brain and consciousness that I encounter, the attitude seems to be that we still know next to nothing about how the brain and consciousness work; that there's lots of data but no unifying theory. I believe the extended TNGS is that theory. My motivation is to keep that theory in front of the public. And obviously, I consider it the route to a truly conscious machine, primary and higher-order. My advice to people who want to create a conscious machine is to seriously ground themselves in the extended TNGS and the Darwin automata first, and proceed from there, by applying to Jeff Krichmar's lab at UC Irvine, possibly. Dr. Edelman's roadmap to a conscious machine is at arxiv.org/abs/2105.10461

He wishes we can’t read it away-Buddha and Plato were talking about human spirit. They were not illusions, they were skills of discernment. AI is just a cheap version and it will never compare at all. He’s such a mediocre thinker.
No it's reproduction. An amoeba reproduces a virus colonists and destroys, you can't call a virus a parasite as a parasite doesn't kill its host. It has no method of consumption of food nor any method of growth or repair. You can say anything is language. Viruses are packages or programmes written in DNA. Nothing more.
He may have got it right... A.I. can't imagine, cannot really create, can't dream, or mourn.... thus "A printing press cannot create a book". Just a very smart parrot given information.
A brave new world and 1984 didn't have any idea how fuckin mental the not to distant future would be. No software is or will be perfect no AI will become human, no human will become AI.
Believe me, this guy isn't any authority in A.I, neither computer science nor ethics, surprisingly neither economics, and guess what, he is not even that good in history. He has a good story book that he wrote, rest he is yapping. His rise is what is called intellectual astroturfing. He is a cultural influncer appointment and advanced to INFLUENCE you. He is yapping
