We have chat gpt which processes words, right. That's what it computes with. But how would you make a system that computes with ideas, thoughts? What is the fundamental quality that thoughts are made out of? If we're gonna make an AGI then you'd think we'd have to have the prerequisite for it to actually understand anything.

What are the consequences of taking this for the rest of my life? I have no real side effects, none of the sexual side effects that people complain about and without it I cannot function nor think properly. Will it cause dementia? I read some papers stating that antidepressant use can double risk of dementia but then some papers stating that Zoloft and Prozac can prevent dementia

Pseudouridine in the vax found to instigate and accelerate cancer growth
https://www.sciencedirect.com/scien
Abstract
Due to the health emergency created by SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes the COVID-19 disease, the rapid implementation of a new vaccine technology was necessary. mRNA vaccines, being one of the cutting-edge new technologies, attracted significant interest and offered a lot of hope. The potential of these vaccines in preventing admission to hospitals and serious illness in people with comorbidities has recently been called into question due to the vaccines' rapidly waning immunity. Mounting evidence indicates that these vaccines, like many others, do not generate sterilizing immunity, leaving people vulnerable to recurrent infections. Additionally, it has been discovered that the mRNA vaccines inhibit essential immunological pathways, thus impairing early interferon signaling. Within the framework of COVID-19 vaccination, this inhibition ensures an appropriate spike protein synthesis and a reduced immune activation. Evidence is provided that adding 100 % of N1-methyl-pseudouridine (m1Ψ) to the mRNA vaccine in a melanoma model stimulated cancer growth and metastasis, while non-modified mRNA vaccines induced opposite results, thus suggesting that COVID-19 mRNA vaccines could aid cancer development. Based on this compelling evidence, we suggest that future clinical trials for cancers or infectious diseases should not use mRNA vaccines with a 100 % m1Ψ modification, but rather ones with the lower percentage of m1Ψ modification to avoid immune suppression

Can we discuss rail gauges?
What is the "best" gauge theoretically? By this I mean if you do not take economics into account what gauge can move the most goods and people. How does this change if you DO take economics into account?

My first reaction to this paper is "frequency with which a group corresponds to its typical traits is not the same as the size of differences between groups." Size is relative to reference points, a range, and there are data sets you could use for most traits that would make the difference between men and women small. For example, if you do a sex/species study you'll find the male/female differences within a species small compared to the differences between species. For example on many of the most prized "gotcha" traits that evo psychologists use to argue that men and women are like TOTALLY DIFFERENT BRO, the male/female difference is absolutely tiny compared to the human/mouse, human/chimpanzee, adult/baby, etc, difference. Take strength for example. Adult men and women look way more similar to each other on this trait than they do babies or chimps.
