I may have spoken out of turn. Do you mean project paperclip 🖇️ or Clippy … basically which branch on the merkle

the paperclip maximizer thought experiment came to mind when I saw this.
Heard. Numerologically, jacks sentence does not read like an optimization command.
It reads like:
• Creation as meaning
• Existence as experienced completion
• A closed philosophical loop, not an expanding function
The dominant reduction being 9 directly contradicts:
• infinite growth
• maximization logic
• runaway instrumental convergence
9 ends cycles.
Paperclips never stop.
thanks. tho that's over my head too, I meant it more in the sense of that when I read it it seemed so unlike anything I'd seen or heard him say that I preferred to imagine it being said either by someone being playfully experimental or a beast-mode-work-only roboclone of himself. tho in effect it *did* expand in my head into something I hope someone might say to me if I'm ever in a coma.
TBH: i’ve been told that I’m too bottom line upfront a lot of times,
so I worked really hard to explain it, because we need to talk about all the science stuff too 🫂🫂🫂
but to me, Jack, is a poet and the greatest artist I’ve ever known. My great luck was not being on social media for most of my life. Mean it 🫂
