OMG that is the most unreadable landing page I've seen in a while. Lighten up on the fireworks please!

This, especially the "Definition of Conscious Intelligence" section, somewhat relates to a current project of mine, writing my own personal software license[1]. I needed to define "person" in my license for reasons, and it was really difficult for me to capture the full idea in words. I finally worked out a horribly long definition, but I might revisit it and steal some bits from this.

In a nutshell, I have an extremely broad definition of person. Cats are people. Ant colonies are people. Slime molds are people. Forests are probably people. Per my definition one could argue that Earth is an emergent person. And per my license you can't use my software if you abuse any person. Per my license if you disagree you can fight me about it.

It also reminds me that I never did fix that font issue between my website and my git server when displaying raw txt files. The one on my website[2] garbles all my weird symbols, and those are absolutely essential to the function and meaning of the license and other work. Need to work on that but fonts are so confusing.
