The elephant in the room is that AGI doesn't need ads to make revenue but a new Google does. The words aren't matching with the actions.

Has it? Made revenue, I mean.

Obviously yes, AI makes revenue.

What it really boils down to is "the machine doesn't have a soul" . Just an unfalsifiable and ultimately meaningless objection.

Maybe panpsychism is true and the machine actually does have a soul, because all machines have souls, even your lawnmower. But possibly the soul of a machine running a frontier AI is a bit closer to a human soul than your lawnmower’s soul is.

By that logic, Larry Ellison would have a soul. You've disproven panpsychism! Congratulations!

You can question the profits, but revenue is already there.

I completely agree. LLMs only do call and response. Without the call there is no response.

Would a human born into a sensory deprivation chamber ever make a call?

Very likely a human born in sensory deprivation would not develop consciousness as we understand it. Infants deprived of socialization exhibit severe developmental impairment, and even a Romanian orphanage is a less deprived environment than an isolation chamber.

Roughly, actual intelligence needs to maintain a world model in its internal representation, not merely an embedding of language, which is a very different data structure and probably will be learned in a very different way. This includes things like: - a map of the world, or concept space, or a codebase, etc - causality - "factoring" which breaks down systems or interactions into predictable parts Language alone is…

Please check an example #2 here: https://github.com/PicoTrex/Awesome-Nano-Banana-images/blob/... It is not "language alone" anymore. LLMs are multimodal nowadays, and it's still just the beginning. And keep in mind that these results are produced by a cheap, small and fast model.

Every one of those is the wrong angle

Whilst all the choices you make tend to be in the grey matter, the rest of you does have internal state - mostly in your white matter. https://scisimple.com/en/articles/2025-03-22-white-matter-a-...

> Whilst all the choices you make tend to be in the grey matter, the rest of you does have internal state - mostly in your white matter. Yeah, but so? Does the substrate of the memory ...matter? (pun intended) When I wrote memory above it could refer to all the state we keep, regardless if it's gray matter, white matter, the gut "second brain", etc.

Human brains are not computers. There is no "memory" separate from the "processor". Your hippocampus is not the tape for a Turing machine. Everything about biology is complex, messy and analogue. The complexity is fractal: every neuron in your brain is different from every other one, there's further variation within individual neurons, and likely differential expression at the protein level.

Maybe the soul is not as mysterios as we think it is?

There is no empirical test for souls.

Netflix likely doesn't want to show ads, but the market would rather watch ads than pay full price for a service. https://www.theverge.com/news/667042/netflix-ad-supported-ti...

> the market would rather watch ads no, netflix wants more income, and by having a product be ad supported, they can try to earn more. The "market" is not a person, and doesn't have "wants".

From the article:

> Netflix has more than doubled the number of people watching its ad-supported tier over the last year. At its upfront presentation for advertisers on Wednesday, the company revealed that the $7.99 per month plan now reaches more than 94 million users around the world each month – a big increase from the 40 million it reported in May 2024 and the 70 million it revealed last November.

1/3 of Netflix users (the market) prefer ads over paying to avoid them.
