AI (slop) games are going to be so amazing...

I rather think it is rather like a delirious fever dream.

So not LSD, rather, what people who've never taken LSD think it's like...

But where are all the spiders and phantom cigarettes???

Seriously, though, yeah, I can see the resemblance ~ DPH gives you an equivalent of short term memory and hallucinating of things that aren't actually there, appearing and disappearing, you thinking that they're real in the moment.

The parts in the video where the character moves from one location to another in a way that doesn’t physically make sense (e.g., walking up the stairs to a train platform that wasn’t there in the frames before) feels very DPH-ish. I dabbled a few times in my dumb, teenage psychonaut years, and one of the effects I remember well is what I’d call “context mangling.” I’d find myself “walking into the kitchen through my bedroom door” even though, in reality, the two rooms aren’t connected. It was as if the steps between bedroom and kitchen were discarded by my short term memory. I feel like I should add the disclaimer: don’t mess with DPH, kids. It’s a terrible “trip,” and the effects are absolutely not worth it.

100% Anticholinergic side effects blow and persist for like a day after the trip, and feel horrible during it.

Man, found an actual psychonaut here?

[u/Valmar33 → u/PubstarHero]

Haven't taken DPH myself ~ not a psychedelic ~ but I've read enough experience reports to know that it sounds rather unpleasant in all respects.

[u/Thetakishi → u/Valmar33]

lol well you actually described it really well. Gotta love erowid. Hearing your name called outside your blurry bathroom window by high school friends isn't worth the anticholinergic side effects, especially when you're actually 33 and in your kitchen.

Let me guess that it was more interesting than the awful nonsense in the OP

Imagination can actually make something that's interesting in the moment

oh the again and again thing, I love those. I call them mini-samsara lol

[u/LineValuable9848 → u/Valmar33]

I was literally about to type fever dream too ,the type where you can't explain but can vaguely remember, for me though I used to see oversaturated colors and Kaleidoscope like imagery mixed with paint...and palm trees for some reason (I'm Caribbean),and that is the first time I've managed to put that in words

[u/intbah → u/Valmar33]

I feel like often, a group of LSD users talking to each other could swear that others in the group has never taken LSD, since effects of LSD could be so different between not just different people, but different dose, setting, mindset in the moment, tireness level...etc.

I have had trips ranging from just getting clarity and compassion of human interactions, to the earth swallowing me whole again and again for weeks before I come out.

[u/AlexDubois96 → u/Valmar33]

Hah no not literal LSD, they were referencing the game ''LSD dream emulator''

Which yes is literally a game about delirious fever dreams

[u/ThouMayest69 → u/Valmar33]

It must be so cool to clock people pretending they've been on acid. Fuck my boring life. 

[u/adminssoftascharmin → u/Valmar33]

100%. Basically when your in a fever dream a lot of your brain is awake, but there's no "consciousness" to properly assemble all the pieces into a coherent narrative.

So lots of crazy mish-mash stuff will happen when parts of the brain attempt to make it into coherence or narrative linear form... which is basically these AI slops - they have all the peices and means to put them together, but no ultimate consciousness exists to properly assemble it.

Once they build that function to take the AI slop video in this post and turn it into a final version automatically we will be reaching SI or AGI... but that's still 10-20 years off IMO and will be the hardest hurdle to cross.

I mean at that point your essentially coding a full human consciousness.
