So uhh this visible “chain of thought” thing in deepseek triggered some sort of existential dread in me (hexbear.net)

Seems like researchers are getting uncomfortably good at mimicking consciousness- so much so that it’s beginning to make me question the deepest parts of my own brain. Perhaps the difference between AI and myself is that I am only prompted by outward stimuli? It seems as though that is what makes the intelligence “artificial”

Christ even as I type this, my thought processes mimic, for example, deepseek’s exposed deep think capabilities. Fuck idk if I’ll be able to unsee it. Seems like the only thing we have on it right now is emotion and even that seems to be in danger

My final takeaway from all of this is that we are in hell

Look at tesla and spaceX. Consider how each of those domains' mechanical systems are incredibly simple compared to the complexity of the brain and emergent phenomena like consciousness.

Its implementation would be so riddled with unmaintainable and unportable shit that there's no way they'd reach this ideal, let alone graduate above medicalized torture into productive medicalized torture
