Of course! Even love! Just mix a dash of dopamine, a sprinkle of serotonin, a shot of oxytocin, and a hint of norepinephrine. Shake well in a nervous system, serve warm, and call it love!

Would you like a side of pheromones with that?

Especially group sex

with 44 men, so an orgy.

That's gay.

Gay chemistry!

No, watt is love, so love is energy over time, not chemistry.

No, Shrek is love, Shrek is life.

And all of chemistry is just physics.

What about consciousness?

[–] Samskara@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Is self awareness of information processing and filtering.

Truly the strangest epiphenomenon we're all aware of

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Or is it an epiphenomenon... No one can tell IMO.

[–] silasmariner@programming.dev 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

You're certainly not wrong! To me, it seems that consciousness is just what it is to be the kind of machines that we are, and also why sentience/consciousness is so impossible for the sort of synthetic 'AI's we have that currently exist. But how could we ever really tell? Hard to know what evidence would ever be convincing either way!

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

Exactly!

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago

Well, except for nuclear physics...
