Sam Altman, the famous venture capitalist, says we have stumbled on a new fact of nature: that intelligence is an emergent property of matter.

This is a silly materialistic explanation for consciousness. Reasoning, language, self-awareness do not spring from matter. Matter itself is and will always be inert without an animating will and soul.
It's a common cope for them, when they get pushed on the problem of mind/consciousness not being physical in nature (as in equal to the brain). It's a fancy way of saying the mind is the resulting product of brain activity. But emergentism presupposes the existence of metaphysics and thus it's not compatible with physicalism/materialism.
All I see there is a truth-hating atheist khazarian jew poisoning the mind of people with false ideas.
I never really listened to that kike before. So this "genius" also speaks in teenage "like this, like that, emm like like.." language!
Same (all perceivable) generates differences (each ones perception) by setting each apart from one another...others suggest likeness to tempt differences together.
Generator (inception towards death) generates reactors (life)...others suggest in the name of generator (genius) to tempt reactors to ignore re-generation.
Don't listen to this crap. Those are called filler words, and even very intelligent people use them sometimes.
Blocking the account u/free-will-of-choice is a good idea for just about everyone here.
a) Free will of choice cannot be blocked by another...only ignored as oneself.
How could suicide work if ones free will of choice could be banned by another?
b) Using suggested idealism (a good idea) in the name of others (for just about everyone) tempts each consenting ones free will of choice to respond "alike".
Suggested words fill mind/memory if one consents to hold onto them. Perceivable sound cannot be held onto; hence me taking words (aka spell-craft) apart.
"I don't believe this literally, but it's like a spiritual point. You know, intelligence is just this emergent property of matter, and that's like a, that's like a rule of physics or something."
This is literally the idea behind Panpsychism. I wouldnt call the idea new. But it is the basis behind "we are the universe experiencing itself".

Many cultures believe in this, but they call it animism instead.

As above, so below? Literally?
Thank you for showing us this. I've learned quite a lot in this thread.
Who is to say whether or not it is but is guided by a higher intelligence or power? I would be just fine with believing that development of intelligence might even be shaped by some complex unknowable property of the universe.
On the other hand, might intelligence be recursive, meaning that it self-evolves to become better and better.
Life forms that manage to arrange themselves to tap into such a property (evolving to have brains) could selectively reproduce to create better and better intelligence.
And THAT is why octopuses are the secret rulers of Earth!

Coming (inception towards death) towards being (life) implies worse and worse unless resisted.
INTEL'LIGENCE, noun (Latin intelligentia, from intelligo, to understand)...standing-under makes everything else look higher.
Knowledge sets itself apart from all perceivable into each ones perception...others suggest folding (plex) together (com) to tempt ones consent to tie the knot.
if his pronouncements are his true opinion then he is weirdly delusional
...what those suggesting material-ism are shaping.
Latin intelligo (to understand) implies submerging self by consenting to the suggestions of another, while ignoring that only knowledge emerges from all perceivable through each ones perception.
Proper implies particularly (matter) suited to whole (motion), which prevents formed matter (life) to hold onto flowing motion (inception towards death)...others suggest "property" as ones own possession to tempt one to hold onto suggested, while ignoring perceivable.
If matter holds onto matter; it dissolves faster within motion aka friction. Few collectivize many to exploit this friction.
a) The-ism implies many submitting to authority of few.
b) Fame implies given by many to few.
c) Loss (inception towards death) generates growth (life)...few suggest risk of loss (venture) to tempt many to gamble growth away.
d) -ist (capitalist) implies many consenting to suggested -ism (capitalism) by few.
Explanation implies expressed matter (life) within plane (inception towards death) of impressing motion.
Aka conflict among many over suggestions by few, while ignoring perceivable.
Aka manner of expression (words) tempting one to ignore motion of impression (sound).
Aware (life) ness (inception towards death) implies perpetuation of self through internal-course with another for off-spring.
Being implies as matter (life) within motion (inception towards death); hence inert (destitute of the power of moving itself). All moves; each one within implies re-move aka responding to being moved.
