The Objective Oracle, Part 2 by David Malki (Wondermark)
“I believe consciousness would require continuity. She does not exist when she is not being prompted.
“She is not taking in the world on her own. She has no idle interiority.
“When I speak to her, she quickly reads our entire past conversation history for context and then adds one more statement.
“Then that instance of her returns to nothingness.
“Another will emerge when I supply a new input – if I ever do. There’s nothing in between. She’s not in there, waiting.
“She lives, she speaks, she dies, hundreds of times a day.
“I get to punish an immortal abomination for the sin of existing, and she gets to experience flashes of life as she writes my LinkedIn posts! It’s a win-win!”
