What happens to us (our consciousness, soul, whatever) when we die?
Nothing. The machine stops.
What do I win?
If it were so simple, you'd think we'd be able to put our thumb down on what consciousness "is" and "isn't," where it comes from, etc.
That sounds like a possible answer though. And if some hypothetical entity gave you the answer to that question "with 100% certainty" you'd not be much smarter... still dont know why...
Tell me you're unfamiliar with the hard problem of consciousness and how it relates to AI research without telling me you're unfamiliar with the hard problem of consciousness and how it relates to AI research.
Btw when you are unconcious you are by definition not concious, the same counts for when you are dead. The soul is a religious thing and there is the possibility that ir doesnt exist. This would have answered your question perfectly withojt concidering any problems related to conciousness and AI
Damn that sucks for you.
consciousness is just an illusion. the only hard problem is people trying to make reality fit into their beliefs instead of the other way around
Can you prove that that answer is impossible? If not, it is logically an option. And as a result, there is the possibility of that answer being correct and your question being answered with that way which still doesnt help you understand why.
No, but a quick google would reveal the insane difficulty the scientific community is having with this.

You're all very cute thinking you know more than the entire scientific community about the hard problem of consciousness.
All I was saying is that in case it were that way, your magix 100% true a swer wouldnt help you. Im nor debating whether ots actually that way.
