The idea that consciousness would just randomly emerge is absurd, this has become exceptionally clear with the field of ai where it can’t even tie shoe laces no matter how much training and experience you give it. There are only two logical explanations for its emergence
1. Unironically gifted by God
2. Every atom and particle in the universe actually has some sort of consciousness to it.
It can be one or the other or both, but it’s literally too statistically miraculous to be explained through some purely random darwinian natural selection.

The development of brain is similiar to computing. The first brain was simple like switching on a light. As time went on, it increases it's learning ability. Just like how we ponder on our brain's complexity in thought,we ponder how did people even build computers. Time,patiences and effort.

why is it impossible to make something the size of a marble weigh as much as a car?

Look up 'degenerate matter' and 'neutron stars'.
You could have something only a millimeter on a side that weighs tons.

It is possible but it's basically impossible to produce on Earth. The object would so dense that it would fall right through the ground all the way to the core of the Earth while still in the construction phase.

Musk's problem is he's trying to be overly complicated in fixing not very difficult problems. If Musk was told that he needed to fix a cities litter problem, he would propose designing an AI driven hyper robot that travels at 4 miles per second picking up all pieces of garbage it sees and converting it into free nuclear energy that then uses the energy to disintegrate trash using laser vision all, all at the low cost of 10 billion dollars. Adding more trashcans would in the city would also fix the problem for a few thousand dollars.

I don't believe in God, but I'm existential about how something had to have come from nothing for this universe to exist and it freaks me out. I frequently get kept up at night by these thoughts. Any good theories to make existential dread disappear? Please don't say God, even if God existed that wouldn't make sense either since God would've had to have come from nothing instead.

I just watched pic related and then read the article the movie came from, and realized that the ones in the wrong here were... Dupont technicians, people educated enough to know or even research the issues with the chemicals they worked with. They didn't care that other people (even their colleages, family, ...), were dying from the effects of harmful chemicals...
Those responsible were not only chemists, but probably doctors as well. Why were those people such cowards? Was it the money? What makes people become cowards?

All technology and science are going to destroy us. The book says that technological advances made possible the rise of transsexualism. so in the future people will turn to all kinds of body modification. Men-cats, men-women-chairs and anyone who does not accept these changes will be persecuted and eliminated by the government. Is there a way to stop scientific progress or is there no turning back?
