Against my better judgement, I clicked, and confirmed: AI-generated obituary copy. Is any of it real?
It's not clear to me humans are much - if any - less automatonic. Biology clearly reacts, e.g. knees clearly jerk.
What makes, for example, a textural offering "real"? That there's an alleged self/person/individual/free-will behind it? How do you prove that's ever real-ly the case if/when biological knee-jerks can mimick the presence of a self/person/individual/free-will? Don't we simply assume/believe such is the case?
And what is that assuming/believing is *itself* biologically automatonic?
Hmmm....
