Here we're getting a bit tricky. "Comparable to" does not necessarily mean it would have the exact same characteristics. Dolphins have...

Comparable to = there is no Turing-type test capable of differentiating them

If we create artificial intelligence comparable to human intelligence, there is no test capable of differentiating them, by definition...

Ok, my scenarios/what I am discussing is a potential future where they are actually indistinguishable from humans/sentient. I agree...

To understand this, it's important to think in terms of tensors. Tensors exist at different levels of order. Through expansion and...

I put the word in quotes because it's a word I don't subscribe to/think is irrelevant. In my view, if you are unable to detect/judge...

The problem with distinguishing between AI and humans in text generation is that there is no test capable of clarifying it; the Turing...

It rules out models that (a) are expanding everywhere, and (b) do not have a past spacetime boundary. As I noted earlier, de Sitter...

Ok, I'll try to be more direct, what models exactly does the BGV theorem ruled out?, what properties should they have? At one point you...

But what's the correction Peter? You said that the BGV theorem can't be asserted as entirely ruling out models that extend infinitely...

If I understand you correctly, Peter, the theorem you mentioned rules out inflationary models that extend infinitely into the past and...

The terminology in the literature is unfortunately not consistent on this point. To me, it makes the most sense to use the term "Big...

One question Peter, the term "big bang" predates the inflation proposal. Yet, we call the beginning of reheating the "big bang", a...

In the Hawking no boundary proposal, as I noted before, the manifold describing the universe "before the Big Bang" is purely spacelike...

Space and time, spacetime, is GR. If there was a point in the past where we failed to construct a reasonable notion of space and time...
