@golgaloth I don’t think the vampire on board the space ship in #PeterWatts’ #Blindsight had a name. Which makes sense because technically speaking it didn’t have consciousness.

The novel blurb was “A post-singularity first contact novel examining the nature and meaning of consciousness, with space vampires.”

If you want a sci-fi lens on AI consciousness, read Blindsight by Peter Watts. The aliens don’t just resemble advanced LLMs; they anticipate them: competent language behavior without clear evidence of understanding.

> This is what intelligence can do, unhampered by self-awareness.

I strongly believe that folks should read Peter Watts’ #Blindsight because a) it’s a great book and b) it helps provide a frame of reference for non-conscious types of intelligence

The Closed Door: new post on the blog.

Systems process information in parts of themselves the reporting function can't reach. Not hidden, not suppressed: the route was never installed.

From blindsight to slime mold anticipation, the same structural pattern: the work is invisible because it's doing the seeing.
