"consciousness is not intelligence": not a reason why AI isn't conscious, just rebuts a bad argument for AI consciousness (AI: intelligent therefore conscious).
"consciousness is substrate-dependent"/"noncomputational": would be a reason if true, but truth needs to be established.
more accurate title: "three reasons why AI might not be conscious".
"three reasons why AI isn't conscious." really?

WUaSpharmaceuticals' division begin to work in a #RealisticVirtualEarth, Retweet of George Church Rejuvenate Bio - 19 Oct 2026
How could @WorldUnivAndSch in new #WUaSpharmaceuticals' division begin to work in a #RealisticVirtualEarth, #RVEforGenes, #RVEforExtremeLongevity with eg #FGF21, #sTGFβR2 & #αKlotho for further #AgingReversal & longevity #GeneticDrugTherapy developments? https://share.gemini.google/ZMYpfMpjQsry ~

Rejuvenate Bio spun out of my lab at Harvard, and I co-founded it. One injection reverses cardiac disease in dogs
Rejuvenate Bio spun out of my lab at Harvard, and I co-founded it. One injection reverses cardiac disease in dogs, with three years of safety data and zero safety issues. They’ve raised $3.2M+ and 1,250+ investors are in, and Kingscrowd ranks the round #1 in the country. It closes soon: https://t.co/EDUdl3xq7a
The Condition: Myxomatous mitral valve disease causes heart failure and valve leaflet changes in aging dogs.
The Treatment: A single adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapy injection delivers specific longevity- and cardiac-associated genes (such as FGF21, sTGFβR2, and αKlotho) to halt or reverse heart remodeling without altering the dog's base genome.
Wondered even more whether this kaiser permanente message "New message from your care team" email yesterday after holding WUaS Weekly Business Meeting (-https://worlduniversityandschool.blogspot.com/2026/10/mount-elbrus-russia-m-101926-102626.html) could even be possible organized crime criminals in kaiser permanente regarding kp sex slavery / prostitution re care team (having wondered about this curious kp 'care team' before and written to some of you about this too) -
as I continue to seek to move into a vacant with property deed 670 Ridgecrest Road Canyon 94516 (after departing asylum in Pittsburgh first on 12/10/24) -
- after receiving another kp message (in PPS) today - from you Ed (Smyth MD) that was less out of context, referencing trust, and possibly even sent as a normalizing cover to yesterday's email ...
I'm not interested in this curious kp "care team" re possible abuses of this (eg by possible i.o.c. international organized criminals in KP)...
Seeing my PCP Javier Deleon MD annually for example is much safer health wise and after 5 tesla-related i.o.c. I posit death threats and a gunshot to my car earlier this year ...
Thoughts?
Aboltionally, best wishes, Friendly NtF Quaker and Unitarian U greetings, thanks,
Ma/Janie & Pin/Ed, how are you further today? Just received a first 'Too good' Pinterest Yoga post ... from you Pin? Are Fettes College (with the AGM 'shooting' word, and Fettes campus now having security at its gates per AGM too), new head of school Richard Girvan, Karen Jones, George Preston and even Fettes' Scottish & Great Britain's uniformed armed services reading these text messages - & re Flora too? Just received an email from Fettes about 3 Fettes college business networking events & 1 Carol Service, in Scotland, Dubai, and London, England, from Nov 12-Dec 16 after I sent you "Hi Pin, Ma, How are you this Tuesday? How to find a life partner, a friend I can talk with, my wife to be, in her 20s possibly ... not driving around - so while based at 670 Ridgecrest Rd Canyon 94516 potentially ? Meet in a school-informed environment, like Reed, Pendle Hill, Cuttyhunk (re CYC) etc? so possibly in the context of World Univ & Sch & the WUaS Academic Medical School in Canyon too, or? A pretty woman with Anglo or Germanic background - with parallels to Susan or Anke, past mutual-loves, in the first half of their 20s, when we were friends? A MD, or MD to be, somehow 'off radar'? Not Flora or Marisa ... Someone who might emerge from the trip to Harvard ARDD & Cambridge MA Friends Meeting at Cambridge - A Quaker, or Unitarian woman? Thoughts? Yogically, Fondly, warmly, Desiderata prose poem, Scott ( https://www.desiderata.com/desiderata.html ) ... I don't think it's wise to go to these Fettes events re Friendly NtF Quaker & Yoga -informed World Univ & Sch outreach & networking with Fettes about their IB diploma, & WUaS seeking to offer the high school IB or similar online in all 200 countries ... Better with a plan in the future with Fettes potentially ... And re growing a WUaS worldwide abolition movement to protect people - & in British business circles & cosmopolitan Dubai UAE (where 90% are foreigners) in the Middle East & re 5 tesla-related death threats & 1 gunshot to car ... but this is an interesting Fettes opportunity possibly in the future .... & Flora can marry her MacLeod partner ?? piano player also in London ... with no communication from her whatsoever ... Although she is in the restorative Yoga explorations' classes (https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2026/08/lotus-maculatus-restorative-yoga.html) ... In growing an abolition movement, seeking to get possible international organized crime out of Fettes even & out of the RSOF Quakers - potentially in Edinburgh too & see -https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2026/10/piping-plover-charadrius-melodus.html?m=0 ... Was just thinking yesterday about traveling to most of all ~200 countries for WUaS outreach especially - & letting people know about WUaS ... and such Fettes events e.g. next year with planning could be a great start to this ... especially if WUaS with Fettes could explore IB collaborations & planning beforehand in emails for example ... World Univ & Sch's IT, AI LLMs & ML language platforms need to be further along too ... Just registered interest for a day-long Stanford event (that I heard about from Stanford's' David Jaffe (whom I've met once over a meal at a Quickbooks event I think) on F 11/6 with Stanford associate professor Sean Fullmer (Stanford BS & MIT PhD alum) - and could he know John Hennessy, president of Stanford for 16 years? ... & wonder if WUaS is accepted I'll navigate even stanford's possible i.o.c. involvement ... And WUaS's world wide abolition movement is growing further ... Thoughts? Yogically, Friendly NtF Quaker & UU & MIT OCW greetings, fondly, Scott

I'm writing to wish you a very happy birthday. Nice to sing in the 1st Unitarian Universalist Church of Pittsburgh choir in 2006-2007, when I was living in Pittsburgh for those years, and as my father was impaired from a 1st subdural hematoma he had received on university of pittsburgh managed at the time semester at sea in the country of Belize, on 12/30/2004, the day before my birthday actually (and see - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Gordon%20K.%20MacLeod%20MD).
Are you singing in a choir in Palo Alto now? (I became a member of the Unitarian Church of Palo Alto a year or two ago actually).
World University and School's 250+ Medical Schools are growing, and it would be interesting to explore further collaboration with Stanford Medicine.
Warm greetings, Happy birthday, abolitionally, Friendly NtF Quaker and UU greetings, best wishes,
I did actually sing with UUCPA for a bit before joining community choirs and stepping away from church choirs. I sang with Aurora Singers for a while and they rehearsed in UUCPA's beautiful sanctuary. They were a lot of fun but I wanted more complex and challening repertoire, so these days I'm singing with Collage Vocal Ensemble, and our concert is Nov 15. I've also been studying opera with a teacher in San Jose. I've been able to access an insanely high soprano range which I never knew I had. I'm including a recording if you'd like to check it out.
Happy birthday, Jen, (& Ka Wah, Ma/Janie, UU Rev David (Herndon, Pittsburgh), Nick (who may do some legal work for Google in Pgh and may be a member too of the 1st UU church of Pgh), Sid/Pin, Ed), further,
How wonderful to hear from you, and thanks for sharing your singing news and that Rossini link! An insanely high soprano range sounds like a fantastic discovery—I'll definitely check out the recording. It's great to hear you're finding more challenging repertoire with the Collage Vocal Ensemble; their concert on Nov 15th sounds like quite the event.
I continue to explore Scottish Small Piping (having created 2 albums while in asylum in Pittsburgh, 8/22-12/24), and World University and School is working toward free, online, STEAM-based higher education for all. It's fascinating how music and education converge.
Warm greetings, abolitionally, Friendly NtF Quaker and UU greetings, best wishes,
Scott
And FURTHER -
And perhaps we can e-celebrate further in this thread. and thanks too for your nice email reply just now. I hope your celebration on your birthday was enjoyable?
(I think I became a member of UUCPA Palo Alto, because of singing in Thursday night choir practices with Bruce Olsen, in around 2017-2018, while attending many talks and similar at Stanford and in growing World University and School then too, but didn't sing in the choir any longer when I became a member a year or two ago upon returning from asylum on the eastern seaboard, Aug-2022-Dec 2024; I think I also was emailed (from UU David Thurston possibly too, a friend from Cuttyhunk from the mid-late 1960s, a fairly recent UU in the DC area, and possibly working in the US federal government too) that I became a member at UUCPA, after much whistle-blowing about sf friends / quajer meeting on 9th street especially around 2017 and in the 2010s, of which I was a part - and continuing to inquire about what role international organized crime may be playing in the sf quaker meeting on 9th and in quaker / friends meeting around the world, tragically - :
"Conscientious objector:
Get international organized crime out of the Religious Society of Friends (RSOF - Quakers) worldwide -
Abolition - to abolish the wrongful buying of people in the illegal sex, drugs, violence, car theft, military targeting etc industries internationally and their latent networks of violence ... "
Could Could Paul Jolly have been conveying alice sowaal's' family thinking with his poems title "Poem: If you want to eat a flower end the war" and even re the possible rape and abuse of kids in the sf quajer meeting, going back possibly to the late 1940s, when a joel bean traveled west from maine with some quakers I think ?
Abolish the wrongful buying and selling of women and kids especially ... and with the US federal government's iterating databases ... including the US lists of sex slaves, prostitutes and whores, for example, that probably go back centuries even ... re the law from the late 1700s / early 1800s from Thomas Jefferson / similar about this ...
... I also think I became a member after talking with UUCPA interim Rev Peter Farriday in front of the church, and mentioning that my grandfather Sandy Brown (ACB), with 2 MIT degrees in chemical engineering from the 1920s, and 9 patents in fatty acids, could be considered a birthright UU, although I'm also a member of the Religious Society of Friends/ Quakers, having become so in Edinburgh Scotland in 2004, and been active among unprogrammed Friends since 1975 or 1976). I hope World University and School can become world class universities in each of all 200 countries online - the Harvard/MIT/Stanford/Oxbridge + of the internet.
I also have ongoing questions about my father's GKM MD's 1st subdural hematoma 'death blow' I posit, and even regarding the us federal government's involvement in international organized crime on university of pittsburgh at the time managed semester at sea in Belize on the day before my birthday on 12/30/04 since a retired us major general douglas fraser, who started harassing me on Twitter (at the time), then supreme commander of the US southern command in the us air force would have had to sign off on my father's whacking, I posit, and get paid as well ... and with my father's GKM MD possibly being pushed down an escalator or stairs in lax airport in September 2001 when he and my mother came to visit me after I matriculated at the university of California santa barbara then for a PhD program in sociocultural anthropology (and what is the building attached at right angles to the anthropology department there, on the 2nd floor - I think I heard that there are cia offices - eg with a long history of intelligence agencies being active in social sciences since these anthropologists / archaeologists & related social science researchers researchers can travel much to their field sites all over the world). My father was a fighter, and smart and high achieving as a MD and Professor, having taught grand rounds at UPitt Med School in the 1970s, and as the Secretary of Health in the state of PA in 1979 when the Three Mile Island nuclear catastrophe occurred, and was also president of the Pitt Faculty Senate in around 1997. My parents' Gordon and Jane met and married in the Unitarian church in Cincinnati Ohio in 1957.
I published my first ethnographic book, "Naked Harbin Ethnography: Hippies, Warm Pools, Counterculture, Clothing-optionality, and Virtual Harbin" in 2016 in a brand new academic press at World Univ & Sch planned in all 7159 known living languages with machine learning and translation and human translation too.
Good I think to be a member of the Unitarian Universalist Church (with 130,457 members in the US??), and a member of the Religious Society of Friends / NtFs / unprogrammed Quakers, and to have a CA teaching certificate from the Iyengar Yoga Institute of SF, and a degree in Religion (and German) from Reed College - and all re concepts of the 'divine' or 'spirit' too - and in WUaS growing a world wide abolition movement to protect people by seeking to code for most of all 7.9 billion people on the planet from here - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/You_at_World_University- and for avatar agent electronic health records (even for extreme longevity and aging reversal genetic drug therapies emerging) and to end poverty worldwide with stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency - https://minepi.com/?u=sgkmac - and by facilitating free universal education, highest quality and among speakers of all 7159 living languages ... as WUaS continues to seek to knock back international organized crime worldwide and in seeking to abolish the wrongful buying and selling of people in the illegal sex, drugs, violence, car theft, military targeting (of which I think I was a target in Pittsburgh in April 2023, in my first asylum house there, when a craven psychopath swiss-french epfl soldier, or Lebanese??? frederic khayat, cmu undergraduate at the time did a murderous run through of me, - and with other death threats from chase bank, in cahoots with trader joe's?, target, bryant street rentals, in Pgh then when in asylum in 2 houses there from August 2022 - December 2024), etc industries internationally and their latent networks of violence ... and as World Univ & Sch grows this worldwide abolition movement to protect people. Am seeking an ongoing US federal investigation into international organized crime into cmu, upitt, as well as mit and the ivy league universities (and realize that a number of you are ivy league universities' alumni), and into stanford, and the university of californias, and in growing World University and School in 200 countries and speakers of 7159 living languages and to protect people.
WUaS has a singing wiki subject - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Singing (not yet in the other 7158 languages) and and other musical wiki subjects in the WUaS Music School - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/World_University_Music_School - planned in all 200 countries and their languages for free online Music degrees - and seeking to make these happen in real real time from home for most of all of 7.9 billion people. I emailed about this to the UUCPA choir some in 2017 -2018 ... haven't been able to develop these further much yet.
And good to have sung in the 1st UU choir of Pgh with you, Jen, and my mother Jane (above), and with Bill Larson guiding this in 2006-2007. So glad you're finding the south bay choirs you're singing in interesting re technically especially too. WUaS and I are also seeking to knock back international organized crime in international classical music as well ... and with my mother being involved as a board member with the Pittsburgh Chamber Music Society / similar ... so think I'd best wish you happy singing birthday as a further birthday greetings, and continue to grow World University and School building on MIT OCW in 7 languages (and with 5 tesla-related i.o.c. I posit death threats and 1 gunshot to car earlier this year, sadly) ... and to grow the WUaS abolition movement, with WUaS working with the US federal government and potentially both the FBI ,and the CIA for the other 199 countries, and in their languages ... and as World Univ & Sch's and their IT databases, AI ML GPS and related strategies develop and iterate.

Nice to sing with you in the 1st UU church of Pittsburgh as my father was dying.
As I seek further US federal investigations into my father's GKM MD's 'death blow' in Belize, and in Pittsburgh, and seek possibly even to de-extinct him in 50-100 years re George Church's auccessful wooly mammoth de-extinction projects, will keep what you write in mind.
Am also a Nontheist Friend NtF ntf, a kind of new development among Friends/Quakers.
Glad to be still alive, after many death threats in recent years, a murderous run through attempt, a gunshot to my vehicle on 5/18/26 by tesla-related companies - spacex ???, abolition, best wishes, Yogically (as in 8 limbs of Yoga), happy birthday,
