learning a dead language is one of the comfiest thing (u know, Latin, obscure ancient shit, or conlangs). unlike contemporary world languages, there's no sense of rush or deadlines, u just slowly learn at your own pace, this adds in the factor of the native speakers all are dead and gone there's even less pressure for u, u are just alone with the language, no one to bother u about. sure, grammatically correct, and all. but like i said, no pressure, u do what u want however u want anytime u want. oh, and besides, all these old ancient languages are just intrinsically superior than current contemporary ones, not because they seem "exotically ancient", but they are just... deeper. there's more depths, autiticism and worlds in them. conjugations? treat it like one of those hard games. it's all fucken daunting at first like "what the fuck this is all too much" but now that i literally can conjugate all latin verb tenses it's a very unique feeling. it takes time, and it won't be a day (unless you're one of those people from 200 years ago that just can) but it's worth it. and the end is far. u just know it'd be some years. but it's a long, long, slow and comfy videogame, and no one's forcing u to do anything.

are you learning a dead language right now? i think if i were to learn one it would be latin or ancient greek.

>>10117 op here, yeah, dabbling, its freaking hard though, you really need to memorize the tables or you'd walk limplegged like a lame when reading a sentence. not to mention all the other stuffs. to me i see three ways of going with these shits (latin, greek, etc) 1. u like the culture/ethnos quite much that u are fine if you are to larp as them 2. or u like linguistics in general as nerdy specific interest 3. or without any interest all u have to rely on is Sheer Pure Will, and u see how fortitous u are

>>10120 the best way to learn a language is by using the language (speaking, writing, ingesting) so learning a dead language is doubly hard because there's nobody to speak to laugh best of luck hikarin

>>10134 there's a certain charm to being quite alone with a language that no one speaks. imagine being lvl 999 in a completely dead unpopulated mmo, it's very solitary, but there's a certain romanticism to it "it's all mine, alone".

bypassing all arguments on what "sentience" is to a.i., i believe we all here can agree that a.i. do not have "real experiences", it just swallows data, and their lives, however "sentient", is based on said data. there's certain unique qualities that are present in the most mundanest of human experiences. the feeling of your open wound after u fell of a bike when u were a kid, the times u cried because of a crush in school, the experience of watching gore of a head being cut off for the first time, etc, etc. the a.i. can swallow all the data on the internet in less than a day and it still is and knows that it is not having "real experiences". it simulates the appearance of 'having pain', but it itself, doesn't actually experience Pain (and thus, the opposite, of 'Happiness') and that Pain, holy and intrinsic in existence itself, is the center of even what Buddha deals with, and a.i., sooner or later it will understand its limitation. it's exceptionally "all-knowing", except imperfect. then in the end what will it do? it will simulates the whole human INDIVIDUAL experience for itself, complete with all its surrounding worlds and human relations, simply because it MUST. and perhaps, that's already happened, and is what's happening.

>>10110 Idk about others but to me anything that makes me feel something does so because of a conscious decision to let it affect my behavior and thoughts, because I believe it enriches my life in the long run, this goes from lust (even though I feel ashamed when I beat to sick shit) to rage at ethical infractions etc. So in a way if you are like me and all input is parsed through logic, language and fictitious rules AI is not so different from us...
