You're a machine. You're literally a wet, analog device converting some forms of energy into other forms just like any other machine as you work, rest, type out HN comments, etc. There is nothing special about the carbon atoms in your body -- there's no metadata attached to them marking them out as belonging to a Living Person. Other living-person-machines treat "you" differently than other clusters of atoms only because evolution has taught us that doing so is a mutually beneficial social convention.
So, since you're just a machine, any text you generate should be uninteresting to me -- correct?
Alternatively, could it be that a sufficiently complex and intricate machine can be interesting to observe in its own right?
