I think this makes for a good reminder that the grave risks are not about sentience. Casual misuse of an unpredictably heavy weapon is wildly dangerous.

The full-throated version of the embodied view is simply that you are your body. Not some kind of complex inseparability, simply identity. (If you are embodied in your body, once your body is taken away, what are you? If you really want to eliminate dualism, that's where you end up.)

In foreground,  we're behind a red merle dog looking away down a gravel trail.  Down the trail, a small mule deer stands side-on, facing back at us.

How do you escape from a ponzi scheme that's shaped like a klein bottle? They're all so far underwater they can't tell up from down.

The risk I see: if the crazy circular financing bubble doesn't pop soon, the worldwide compute buildout could tip the climate into a vicious-circle spinout. The lesser risk is a sure thing: this bubble will pop. Question is, will it take the developed world economy down with it?

How fine it would be if this was met with an immediate "No you don't" from the questioner. Or even "Moving cameras? What are you talking about?". Are there any sapient creatures anywhere in the White House at this point?

The uber-rich that hold most of this debt understand it as an excellent way to harvest tax revenue from the working class. The people and the government do all the work; they just sit on the bonds and pocket the interest.

They're hiding McConnell's incapacitation until it's too late to appoint a replacement. It's a transparent power-hoarding fraud, met with crickets.
