0G169: Matrix Reloaded and Non-dualism

In keeping with the genre, the first half of this episode is just fighting noises and then the second half is philosophical monologues.

0G168: Animatrix and AI Empathy

Just like we bridge the gap between movies, we must bridge the gap between the meat and machine. For both, we turn to the Animatrix, some of the best animated sci-fi there is. We cover several of the episodes and a couple issues around the alignment problem and awakening.

I'm just gonna assume you've already done the math and knew what sort of meta commentary I would put here, so I'll save us both the trouble.

0G164: Dollhouse 1.1 and Ethics of Intermittent Personhood

Let's imagine your current identity was actually perfectly programmed to love every part of this podcast. Would that really be a bad thing? We're all having fun here watching a totally not creepy show about programming people to be exactly what we need them to be, plus they also have asthma. We try to figure out where the immorality is in all of this.

Hey friend, how you feeling? Want a juice box? You hit your head pretty hard. Why don't you just rest and listen to this podcast that in no way relates to your experience and think about how great it is that you don't live under a maximally exploitative capitalism.
