    Sorry. No. A simulation requires a container to perform the simulation and an algorithm to perform the simulation. A thing doing a behavior on itself isn’t. The universe computes by brute force trial and error to relieve pressure either by expansion or concentration into what we call mass at every increasing scales of complexity in the capture and conversion of mass into the persistence of organization of that mass.
    There is no container, there is no program, there is no simulation, just a purely physical process that as a consequence produces the equivalent of computation of concentration of energy in a persistence that defeat entropy.
    Humans can simulate (predict) because prediction is the purpose of neurons. But we don’t simulate the future we predict, estimate, and conduct trial and error.

    Hard to be picky when your job is unification of the sciences.

    Anyway, as far as I know, I’m one of the leading researchers in sex differences in cognition, and one of the only, if not the only, active in sex differences in lying. Which is why you are about as complicated to me as a three-year-old denying she ate the cookie. In other words, you’re demonstrating, rather quickly, dark triad, female antisocial behavior, and feminine methods of lying and denying but attempting undermining in lieu of argument. The primary determinants of the female methods of lying are low verbal intelligence, and (of course) being female, or having a female temperament (personality), and demonstrating dark triad behavioral traits.

    Now you wouldn’t think computational linguistics would be able to achieve these insights before last November, but now that we have AI’s demonstrating it every single day by the millions it’s more obvious and I have less effort to expend in explaining it to the wicked, and ignorant.

    Cheers.

    Well, evidence is evidence. Data is Data. If we eliminate black criminality from the statistics, other than a tendency of white men to commit suicide when they’re older, america has less crime and violence than europe.

    the industry has its other nonsense, and psychology, sociology and ‘activism’ disciplines are rife with nonsense. No need to pay any attention to their nonsense.

    The spectrum produces a series of incremental effects that are due to compartmentalization – ADD, OCD, Insulation from mirroring: imitation, empathizing, sympathizing, Dilution of the self, in exchange for systematizing, insulation from social bias, and an inverted IQ curve.

    These are, at least operationally, rather obvious results of either overproduction of neurons, underproduction of regional interaction, and underproduction of the range of the transmission, leading to compartmentalization that causes the drive for homeostasis by the combination of concentration of stimulation and limitation on overstimulation.

    In other words, the industry hasn’t really caught up yet, but while little can be done other than cognitive behavioral therapy to assist in wiring the brain productivley and overcoming compartmentalization, I do not feel that we don’t understand what is producing the systemizing-to-autism in the organization of the brain, even if we don’t know exactly what combination of genetic and other factors contribute.

  • Youngster (@Skaymore); @Whatifalthist is referring to the neurological research

    Youngster (@Skaymore);
    @Whatifalthist is referring to the neurological research led by Simon Baron-Cohen, that identifies the systematizing-to-autistic spectrum as male and autism as the extreme male brain – just as the empathic to solipsistic to neurotic to psychotic spectrum as the female brain.

    So we see these very obvious extremes of behavior:
    Female <-> Male
    Empathizing<->Systematizing
    Williams(external) vs SocioPathy(internal)
    Psychosis(submission) vs Autism(dominance)

    Now you can want ‘attention seeking’ and ‘privilege’ and ‘social construction’ of the world to conform to YOU, because of your diagnosis, or you can, like the rest of us, struggle to overcome it like those with tendencies to all other kinds of obsessive impulsivity try to conform OURSELVES to the world, and through cognitive behavioral therapy, (repetition) eventually do.

    While my hypervigilance and gregariousness are often noticed, most people can’t tell I’m on the spectrum unless I don’t self-monitor, and delve into verbal detail on a subject. Why? Because I worked as hard at ‘fitting in’, as a professional sportsman worked at obtaining his career.

    There are no victims – only choice.

  • Understanding Iintelligence by Criticism of “The Biointelligence Explosion.” by

    Understanding Iintelligence by Criticism of “The Biointelligence Explosion.” by @webmasterdave
    While the author’s piece is easily criticized as statring from false premises of not understanding (g) as a measure of neural plasticity (frictionlessness, rate of evolutionary adaptation), in the disambiguation (organization) of sensation (vibrations) into spatial world model (potential episodes), and the production of competing predictions, and subsequent continous recursive hierarchical recursion produced by scale of time and space as memory scales, including the preservation of state (attention) for the direction of that prediction – all of which are evolutions of wayfinding as the original three layers of cortical tissue double to six, expanding organization of movement in response to stimuli into organization of prediction of movement in time to pursue anticipated (predicted) rewards.
    The result being an ever increasing scale of predicting fields of possibility from autoassociation of episodic memories to produce possiblities for action that we can hold in attention while recursively wayfinding to reach a possible solution, including ‘mind-reading’ bodily imitation, sympathy of intent and thought, and empathy of emotional state.
    In other words with just movement, senses, embodiment, memory, wayfinding, and attention, all phenomena in the brain are emergent.
    However, his claims that closure (‘logical behavior”) requires:
    (a) correspondence with treality.
    (b) organization by embodiment
    (c) auto association (pattern matching)
    (d) preservation of homeostasis
    (e) emergence of continous recursive auditing (self)
    … are all correct.
    in other words mastery of not only neuroscience (prediction), what little science exists in psychology and cognitive science, as well as the foundations of mathematics and computation are necessary to communicate a cogent understanding of the ‘operational paradigm of existence, organization, means and methods’ of cellular cooperation in the production of the defeat of entropy by increase of consumption in time’.

    Not a very good one – combined with lack of knowledge of neuroscience, limited knowledge of processor engineering, apparently limited knowledge of physics, the foundations of mathematics and computability -and a rather weak comprehension of epistemology. But that’s ok. There aren’t many of us who have mastered the majority of fields. But there are more of us who lack the arrogance to confuse their incomprehension with others’ ability. 😉
