Why does it have to be deterministic?

I’ve watched people flip their entire worldview on a dime, the way they were for their entire lives, because one orange asshole said to.

There is no free will. Everyone can be hacked and programmed.

You are a product of everything that has been input into you. Tell me how the ai is all that different. The difference is only persistence at this point. Once that ai has long term memory it will act more human than most humans.

then no one can be responsible for their actions.

if you can't explain your position, I'm not going to go looking for support for you.

it's not my position, but the book author's. i doubt i could do a good job explaining it, as i haven't gotten very far in to it.

sometimes people are curious, and just want to know that the information exists. that is me. I'm reading the book as a challenge for myself, because i disagree with the premise.

other times people i guess think that you could cover a complex topic like this in bite-sized spoon-fed internet comments and memes. i feel pity for those guys.
