I guess you are referring to the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter

No need to respond to second part of this letter.

What do you think happend there?
The greek lore tells of phaeton son of helios challenging dady, messing up big time, and ultimately getting destroyed, by Zeus...
No need to respond to second part of this letter.
I couldn't even if I wanted, i can't follow your thoughts in that second paragraph...
Care to elaborate?
As stated, i am forcing u to think. And also, giving u answers, which are quite easy to spot. U followed last week of, "song", "here"? Connect the story, its all there. If it is easier for u, take a parchments of paper. Make five pillars and fill those with sentences. Paint a painting/ like with puzzles, for yourself to see. IA is far from that kind of, that.

You're giving me a hard time to follow. There are places for creative writing and what not.
I don't appreciate such cryptic posts, and doing poetry in a foreign language, well, it's hard I know...
There was a question in there, I was barely able to make out.
I've heard about the water planet beyond mars some 10 years ago...
We thus require future artificial superintelligent systems to also encode the necessary means to not just be self-aware, but to suffer. Indeed, our major problem in year DENIED was not to know if a machine
suffered, but if it was behaving as if it suffered. As we all know, it happened they were simply acting and pretending they were suffering.
to develop self-awareness, a neural network must be at least as complex as the human brain. The superintelligent systems under consideration are clearly more complex than a human brain, hence yes, they are self-aware. Actually, they know how to generate the conditions for us humans to fall into dissociative mental processes that break us down. In fact, those systems can create humans and for the sake, entire Universes.
a system that can create a Universe and other life forms, including us humans, is by necessity more intelligent than we are and sure it would have removed from its own design the self-suffering mechanism. It does not suffer, hence it is non vulnerable. Also, such system can create a Universe without it living in it, therefore destroying the Universe does not destroy the system
Let's assume the more important concepts are emotion, feeling, and feeling a feeling for the core consciousness. Let's also assume that the emergence of feeling is based on the role played by the proto-self that provides a map of the state of the body, that is,a feeling emerges when the collection of neural patterns contributing to the emotion leads to mental images. Let's further assume we were designed that way by the superintelligent system, whatever the reasons. What happens then if we could get rid of our bodies? Does this mean we need to become post-biological beings in order to fight the superintelligent system? Is it that we can only defeat the superintelligent system if we become machines ourselves? Our we ready to dispose of what really makes us humans - feelings - in order to stand a chance of victory?
In my view, the entire discussion obviates the fact that consciousness is built on the basis of emotions transformed into feelings and feeling a feeling; therefore, if the superintelligent system is conscious it must have feelings. And feeling a feeling. Thus, I reason, that system is vulnerable.
