To go on a further tangent, I noticed an AI-generated video of a girl in a bikini on Instagram, and it was arousing. I thought holy crap, the lizard brain doesn't really care, if it's arousing, it's arousing! (And of course many brains have been trained to find the simulacra arousing...)

We’ve been doing this to ourselves forever. Whether sexually or tricking ourselves with sweeteners or whatnot.

Our brain has a pretty loosely typed interface.

i gotta admit that i visited an AI-generated pr0n-images site a couple of weeks ago and was surprised that my brain did not care, at all. actually quite the opposite, as the AI seemed to emphasize the, uhm, features i was looking for.

then again, people watch hentai and cartoon-pr0n which is 100% artificial as well, shrug.
