You don’t have to go that far: Earth itself would be a black hole

It won’t. sushi is flash frozen for exactly this reason

The idea that the writer is orthogonal is WILD

Because you think you're always going to be able to tell the difference between AI writing and human writing? That's WILD!

Not really

That’s not even what the post you’re replying to said

> The idea that living things, which are far more intricately organized at every level than any machine we have made, could have arisen by some unknown series of chance steps is a fairy tale.

Really? Because when you look at something like the human retina, the organization is embarrassing.

Especially since there are older, extant examples with better organization.

Design has tradeoffs, and when these are considered I doubt you'd want to trade your eyes for another organism's. The human eye is a marvel of engineering, and even today the best digital cameras we design can't capture even close to the dynamic range our eyes can see (12-15 stops vs. 20-24 stops simultaneously). After adjusting to the dark, the human eye can perceive a single photon striking the retina.

Like the government doesn’t already have that power?

Same reason you can look at a sunset but not the noonday sun

For reference the quote is “ During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet.”
