I am the Coughy Nist.
By chance, or personal divine providence, cursed to be alive. I am a writer, traditional 2D effects animator, in love with cognitive science and AI.
graduated from IA University of SAMA with a bachelor's degree in software engineering, achieving a GPA of 12.34.
To clarify, IAU University uses a grading system where the highest possible GPA is 20 and the lowest is 0. In order to avoid being dismissed from the university, students must maintain a GPA of at least 12. Achieving a GPA of 12.34 is considered an exceptional accomplishment, as it is very close to the minimum possible GPA and is therefore rare in the history of IAU. It means I am honored to get my precious degree with least possible amount of energy consumption as it humanly is possible.
I took a unique and efficient approach to achieve my minimum GPA due to the low quality of the university I chose. I purposely avoided taking entrance exams for better universities because I desired more freedom to study and conduct research to find my perfect path in either science or art. Recently, I discovered that all of my scientific ambitions can be fulfilled through "cognitive science". Therefore, I intend to pursue a master's degree in Cognitive Science and a PhD in Philosophy of AI at the best possible university, which apparently happens to be MIT.
My goal in science is to achieve artificial consciousness and to reach singularity. Unfortunately, the technological and scientific sophistication has stopped human evolution; so I want to help pushing human evolution to the next evolutionary destination.
My goal is to assist the first semi-intelligent bipedal primate mammals from the animal kingdom, commonly known as "Homosapiens" (of which I am a member), who are transforming into a hive mind society through their collective knowledge and computational power known as the “internet”. I aspire for them to be the pioneers in actively choosing and shaping their own evolutionary path, leading the way towards becoming "GAIA Sapiens".
The term "Gaia Sapiens" is not a well-established scientific term, but rather a speculative concept that envisions a future state of humanity. It is generally used to refer to a hypothetical future state where humans have evolved into a more advanced species that is in greater harmony with the natural environment and the planet as a whole. This concept is often associated with the idea of sustainable development and the belief that humans can and should play a positive role in shaping the future of the planet.
