I think you might be out of the loop. Jeph sold out, he doesn't write that shit anymore.

Hold the fucking phone, a character was just introduced who is the literal definition of what tumblr self-diagnosed autists believe they should be..
>>83722151
what's your point?
>>83722182
He's still writing the tumblr bullshit, that's my point.

Why is everything so stiff and lifeless?

This is awful.
The p-zombie concept is about how you can't actually know that other people have internal monologues or any of the other shit usually associated with "consciousness."
Basically the point of that and the Turing test is that "if it quacks like a duck" is about as well as we can define consciousness in other people.
So they're saying that something that doesn't quack like a duck would be solely concerned with its own survival (doesn't follow) and that maybe something solely concerned with its own survival would waste cycles on VR for some reason (doesn't follow) and that something that chose to simulate a universe wouldn't understand the shit happening in the universe it's simulating.
There are many things on earth that think without quacking like ducks. Not quacking like a duck isn't what makes AI dangerous.

Oh, that's what you mean by sold out
Then yes, you are right, I'm sorry

This is precisely the most likely scenario that AI developers are scared of though. The strip isn't funny, but it's not wrong either.
