That yet-to-arrive-but-imminent moment where [[artificial intelligence]] becomes self-aware, connects at a spooky quantum level<ref>This appears to countermand every established law of physics but, as theorists are prone to go these days, it’s “you know, quantum theory. Strings. The [[Multiverse]]. Dark Matter. Schrodinger. His cat. All that indeterminacy stuff.”</ref> across the [[distributed network]] [[substrate]] and, from that [[I am a Strange Loop - Book Review|strangely loopy]] [[algorithm]], a new super consciousness emerges and the very universe itself ''[[wake up|wakes up]]''. | |||
Some see this as the [[end of days]], but it gets vitamin-popping millenarian seer types quite jazzed. It just makes [[me]] sad, especially given how disappointing [[AI]] is at the moment.

Why didn’t the universe wake up when ''we'' became self-aware? | Some see this as the [[end of days]], but it gets vitamin-popping millenarian seer types quite jazzed.
