Hi Eliezer,

I have some questions:

Could you tell us what you do on an average day (for example you were talking about making exercise) ?

How much time do you spend on thinking about AI each day and do you sometimes feel you are close to finding something important?

How would you define consciousness, and what mechanism makes it "emerge" in a mind ? (in other words : how can a network feel pain, for example ?)

Surely you don't have the answer to the second part of that last question, but how do you work to find it out ? Could you define your "thinking about thinking" process to resolve that problem?

Oh, and when will you post the damn videos of the singularity summit 2007 ?

Thanks a lot and keep on tsuyoku naritaiing.
