Can you know uncertainties?

Do you think that you are that good a mind reader? I'm quite certain that you are not.

I.e. pattern recognizing fast thinking gets trained on the results of slow thinking, resulting in subsequent improvement of fast thinking... That Clau...

I am currently watching Fareed Zakaria's Sunday program on CNN. During his "Fareed's Take" segment at the beginning of the show, Zakaria discusses rel...

Our brains don't treat vision in isolation. Our brains integrate visual and vestibular system outputs, seeking a coherent modelling of the world, and ...

I very much concur with Metzinger.

I only meant meta-management in a metaphorical sense, where Pierre is providing meta-management to Claude 3 in an external sense, via feedback of prev...

No. Still, it seems like it's worth considering free will from a variety of perspectives.

I don't know if many people think of free will in terms of being able to be something other than what one is. It seems that you associate the idea of ...

:roll:

We are coming from substantially different perspectives, and I can see that you make assuptions that I consider unjustified. I consider it implausible...

What? I'm not seeing how that makes sense.

Fifteen days ago... In retrospect it isn't courage that is lacking, so much as integrity. Seemingly, it's so easy to say, "I didn't know what I was ta...

I suppose it depends on a person's conception of God, but it is unclear to me why God would have difficulty in articulating what he has to say.

I'm curious as to whether someone could convince Claude 3 that it is in a discussion with another LLM, and there is no need to cater to human sensibil...

:rofl:

Loved this. It's been hard for me to take seriously, the people on this forum who think the existence of other minds is such a problem. Reading on...

Just more gaslighting.

:lol:

I recommend checking out @"Pierre-Normand"'s thread on Claude 3 Opus. I haven't bit the bullet to pay for it to have access to advanced features that ...

So there's something for you to learn about variations in human nature. Gaslighting is strongly associated with narcissism.

Human life is getting more complex, and our cortexes are getting spread thin as our brains try to keep up. That's my hypothesis, and I'll bet you a ca...

It seems to me that is saying about the same thing. It's definitely been awhile, but I would think that before I ever rode a bike I had a conscious mo...

Everyone differs in their hardware. Color-blindness is just one sort of variation.

:naughty:

:100: :up: A lot of areas of thinking are coming together, and I think you present a valuable sketch for considering the subject. I didn't at all thin...

Gnever mind. I should have gnown better than to engage with gnarcissistic gnonsense.

Do you think that no radioactive isotopes that were in the rock at the time of the rock's fomation have decayed?

Right. Your recognition of a G supervenes on a much more complex system involving your eyes, optic nerves, and processing in neural networks in your b...

A sophisticated observer can looks at the corn fields, in order to distinguish between Nebraska and Indiana.

BTW, if Purdue wins the NCAA championship next Monday, I'm going to credit the eclipse.

You just have no idea how weird things are in Indiana.

Just a warning for lunatics, best to stay away from Indiana: April 8 Severe Weather Climo (1950-2023) Central Indiana has observed severe weather on 7...

Sure. I was specifically pointing out that it would be a misunderstanding to think that philosophy governs science. Popper and Kuhn elucidated things ...

I didn't say philosophy of science has no practical application. I said PoS doesn't govern science. I can't speak much to what value philosophers find...

Philosophy of science does not govern scientific practice.

Very interesting article.

:up:

I've read it. I guess I was wondering if you were interested in considering a different perspective.

It's not rare for me to accept that I know things, based on my intuition having been highly trained and tested in some fairly specific areas. Is there...

She wasn't wearing eclipse glasses! :scream: I just got mine today. The path of totality is about an hour from where I live, and it's looking like the...

Something else to consider: https://www.mathnasium.com/ca/blog/20160422-math-in-nature-a-prime-life-cycle-for-periodical-cicadas

Yes. Despite modern media, religion has been in steady decline in the US for decades now.

Pretty bad article, but at least the author is trying to update their thinking: https://www.salon.com/2024/04/02/some-people-may-see-more-images-per-s...

Go ahead and answer my questions and we can go from there.

In a nut shell, the purpose is to investigate whether you can recognize the argument from ignorance you are suggesting.

Are you someone who is good at understanding complex physical mechanisms? Is there some reason to think that the way things seem to you is the result ...

It makes sense. When one wants to believe oneself to be a god, and all of the evidence points to one being a genetically modified primate, there is bo...

Perhaps it explains his being so wrathful.
