We are essentially the sum of our constituent parts and their constituent parts ad infinitum. It's no different than being part of our galaxy, nor the galaxy being part of the Local Group, etc. Our existence as a singular being is an illusion, tricked by the non-localized effects of quantum mechanics.

To know is essentially the same as not knowing. The only thing that occurs is the rearrangement of atoms in your brain.

A vote for Trump, a third party candidate, or no vote at all, is a vote for a dystopian future.

Never expected to see Ben Shapiro using a worse AI than ChatGPT whist effectively claiming it is ChatGPT, in order to say "ChatGPT is dumb and woke".
This made me feel like we are living in the future.

Probably the "hardest" hard Singularity I've heard in a while. Not at all convinced this is the way it will be, though some of the timescales early on sound about right. I have a feeling the coming Overmind isn't going to turn the whole planet into computronium, or that all biological life will be assimilated within the century.
And remember my friend, future events such as these will affect you in the future
