a truly autonomous AI creates it's it's own prompts spontaneously and then reasons them in a self enclosed cycle while absorbing additional external s...
consciousness for me is fundamental. As in a non conscious universe, spacetime is not a factor. Because consciousness experiences location and Time fr...
Agreed. Bit confused here. Negative entropy is what life does. From What I understand Positive negentropy is "moreness" of negentropy. Negative negent...
The true source being the human brain according to you? A rather large assumption to make I believe. There is a lot at play here. Physics, chemistry, ...
Not true from my personal perspective/rationalisation. The changing thing is changing. The constant it abides by in doing so - change - is permanent i...
I do. For me change is a property of potential. Potential wouldn't be potential without a capacity to change into lesser potent products following the...
It's a little hazardous to assume that an interdisciplinary approach is not one that often leads to novel insights. If we had a world where every disc...
Yes. But it would likely be taken as an analogy by most people rather than something literal. Quantum biology is an emerging field of study if you car...
According to what? It's an assumption. And yet we have a hard problem of consciousness that we haven't yet reconciled using biology alone. So, I under...
If change was not a stable or constant property then change would stop. Change changes everything else but it's own ability/property to cause change. ...
There only has to be one substance with the "stable property" of "change". That is to say it consistently, or constantly transforms. Perhaps instead o...
If my will is not a thing then how could I be free to pick my words? Again contradiction. Sure, you're correct, the judgement/interpretation of the wo...
That is part of its role yes. Being aware of (having knowledge) or being aware how to (having a skill) certainly means you have the option for more co...
You can't. Language may be shared but meaning is not. Each word has different and nuanced meaning and associations depending on who you ask. So the sa...
You just contradicted yourself from start to finish. Not talking about being sure I exist and ending with do you really exist. The difficulty is disce...
Certainty of the knowledge of ourselves doesn't have to be imposed. On the contrary, it's readily available and knowable. Uncertainty is the impositio...
from what I understood the context for the "break from nature" was that the human mind is too sophisticated for its own good and that we thus navigate...
It may not be what you meant/are searching for/expecting but that doesn't neccesarily mean the description is "off". It just means that the premises y...
It's an interesting dynamic in that while B is under no moral/legal obligation to press charges, pressing charges obliges them on a legal/moral incent...
Very true. Excellent elaboration and identification of the flaw in my logic. It can never be identical (justice) to simply playing the amount owed in ...
You're correct. There is no way of comparing. Because there are genetic components (pain receptors and endorphin production), anatomical components, t...
We are closed in a profound way. Our perceptions and awareness develop with reference to our individual environment. Our individual relationship with ...
I would say from a physical perspective that the genes that encode pain receptors and endorphin release mechanisms determine how "sensitive" someone i...
And what is a "fact" verses "belief". I believe facts. That belief is a fact. See what I did there? So there is a connection and interplay. Or I belie...
I think it's possible that, supposing there was some fundamental truth, or logos, a prime "Logic" or reason that underpins the true nature of reality ...
Haha well true if its just you where do you even begin creating something "else". Really you could only create "elseness" from yourself. Reform or res...
Well. We can. Some people can go through life uneducated, not curious, never questioning, like other animals do, and they are content/happy. What driv...
True. Our awareness of our capabilities and options are seemingly more advanced than the basic instincts of other animals. The realm of human thinking...
I disagree on what I am confusing. For me there is no confusion; the brain is basically the product of evolutionarily compounded/refined intelligence....
I think consciousness is awareness/intelligence from the point of view of ones individual identity. In that case both humans, other animals and AI mig...
Haha lol. Well even despite it's lack of intended symbolism I like Green. It is balanced; being in the center of the visible colour spectrum and has t...
I'm not a mathematician. Haha. Numbers are not my strong suit. We can crunch the numbers on intelligence for sure. How or to what degree something has...
Okay so I'll try to approach this with another analogy: imagine the mind or conscious awareness as some sort of "non-Newtonian fluid" that can be in b...
for me death is simply transfigurement. You will cease to be human and your identity will shift to something else. The energy and matter that upheld y...
Well, I think good friends are akin to therapists that work for free - through compassion (patience, tolerance, insight/understanding and non-judgemen...
Hmm this is a challenging notion to argue but I thank you for the task. It seems fun. I'm going to ad lib with this one. So lets say for arguments sak...
Exactly. When we make mistakes it's usually due to misidentification of rational connections, mislogics, poorly followed trains of thought. Thus the e...
It's a good question. 1). I think It would have to be a singular object to be held account/to give an account of its existence. So we aren't all askin...
If a mistake occurs I'm not sure it's "innocent" in the sense that the person caused it. But the mistake is either caused by "mal-intent" or "despite ...
Interesting outline indeed. Thank you for the insight. I agree with the process outlined: . For me a mistake can occur at any stage in that process. E...
So you're saying there's no meaning to anything that happens without applying human constructions like physics to reflect what we observe? For me, the...
I think again as I discussed with Banno. There are different levels of meaning. There is the innate objective "meanings" or descriptions/associations/...
Absolutely. Expectation dictates the success/failure dynamic. People with the biggest dreams/ambitions fall the hardest when they don't meet them. I t...
That indeed may all be true 180Proof. And finally, in conclusion. How does that make you feel? Do you suffer because of that rationalisation, or does ...
Haha I like this phrase. I can imagine knowing of/expecting the perfect answer to a formula or maths equation one is working on, and feeling like it p...
Well it creates dichotomies doesn't it? You can't have one side of something without the opposite. So we can see something as "futile", "pointless" or...
