I have but one Self, a timeless abstract optimization process to which this ape is but a horribly disfigured approximation.
Umm, it seems like huge error to me to think that there is anything but the ape.
I think he’s just putting mental software (brain state) above hardware.
Well, it seems to me like a huge error to think there’s anything there but ape software. How is an ape’s mind an approximation of something else?
well, there’s the mind he would self modify into if he could.
So how is his current mind an approximation of that?
