The Honesty Challenge #2 Answer the question honestly. Give it your best, your answers will be challenged. Question: -> What's a "mechanical parrot"? #Philosophy #Challenge #AI

A Man? A man never responds to your smile, Nor sheds a tear, And speaks with the same monotonous voice as ever. Does he have emotions? Now, that man writes you the most beautiful poem you've read. Does he have emotions? Now, that man is a robot. Does he have emotions? #Philosophy #poetry

Synaesthesia — Ethics synaesthesia.surge.sh/poems/ethics #Poetry #Ethics

The Shower Room from a former convict's eyes. One of the best accounts of #cognition and #ethics I've seen so far. #philosophy m.youtube.com/watch?v=sbTG...

What's Life? A pebble in a river moves by the water's flow. The pebble stops and starts moving up the stream. Nothing you can see is forcing that pebble against the current. Would you exclude the pebble from your definition of Life? #philosophy #biology

Food for thought. ------------------ Milk then cereal? Or Cereal then milk? Without cognitive biases, What will you eat for breakfast? #philosophy #philosophysky

- Ontology: Epistemology - Epistemology: Ontology - Ethics: Observation of natural isomorphisms - Theology: Ethical theism - Politics: Theology at the level of a nation #philsky

Fourth entry of my series on #induction. I apply the inductive triad to #Identity for this last chapter. What remains is a dynamic process that constructs identity, indexed on who/what is observing it. p-phi.cc/articles/ide... #Philosophy #Logic #Mathematics #Observation

Third entry of my series on #induction. I introduce Meta-Stability and derive (partly) #Probability from the inductive triad. The takeaway: meta-stability is what happens to probability when the sample space isn't fixed. p-phi.cc/articles/pro... #Philosophy #Logic #Mathematics #Observation

The Honesty Challenge #1 Answer the question honestly. Give it your best, your answers will be challenged. Only ONE Rule: If you ever use the word "evident" or "obvious", you need to explain WHY. Question: -> Why is it absurd to say that "a spoon is conscious"? #Philosophy #Challenge

Ethics expands whenever our circle of concern grows larger than ourselves. Every generation decides how wide that circle becomes. #religion #ethics #philosophy #nature #science

Second entry of my series on #induction. The triad #Recursion -> #Interruption -> #Completion applied this time to #deduction. Have fun. #Philosophy #Logic #Mathematics #Philsky #Observation p-phi.cc/articles/ded...

Started writing a series of essays on #induction. This entry intoduces the core triadic structure: Recursion -> Interruption -> Completion. I induce that this very structure applies to any #observation. Further entries will concern #deduction #probability and #identity. #philosophy #logic

Free Will --- Question: Do you have the choice to have free will, independently of any outside influence? Definition from dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/e... #Philosophy #Philsky

"This sentence is false". Try to follow its logic as far as you can. What happens? Recursion, Interruption, Completion. This triad might be what makes logic even possible. p-phi.cc/articles/the... #philosophy #logic #paradox #recursion #pphi

Can you ever reason rationally? After defining rationality, does the method itself survives its own rules? The following dialogue explores the limits of rational reasoning and the premises of effective non-rational reasoning. p-phi.cc/articles/non... #rational #philosophy #dialogue #logic #pphi

When robots can do the work, the people who insist others have to suffer and they themselves are special...they're whole way of life is just going to disappear. What will they do then to make others suffer needlessly?

On recursion in complex environments. Full article: p-phi.cc/articles/run... The analogy use a wagon on a track to describe classic recursions. Complex ones arise when the wagon stops and you start running the track. #recursion #philosophy #naturalphilosophy #complexity #dynamic #pphi

I keep saying this and I’m glad so many others are as well. The future of AI is local, free, and invisible: medium.com/@brian.ragle...

How would you prove causation between 2 events? p-phi.cc/articles/the... #philosophy #causality #thoughtexperiment #thegirlwhocried #pphi

Kubernetes, declarative? What are init-containers for? A possible answer: p-phi.cc/articles/the... The above article argues that declarativity is not an intrinsic property but a relation between usage and scope. #devops #systemsengineerng #declarative #imperative #naturalphilosophy #pphi

My comment on the Ship Of Theseus Puzzle: p-phi.cc/articles/ide... In other words: is identity an intrinsic property? Basic maths only. #philosophy #naturalphilosophy #identity #theshipoftheseus #pphi
