Ok. Understandable. I have nothing against this at all.Feelings are the result we get when we try to reason and understand our emotions. — Nickolasgaspar
No, the opening statement should be are 'emotions' necessary. You just explained what feelings are. Feelings are results or answer or conclusion. Emotions are the source. I was asking if that source is necessary.So in my opinion, the opening statement should ask whether feelings are unnecessary and the obvious answer is of course they are. — Nickolasgaspar
I agree with half of this statement.That would be like trying to ignore our attempt to understand our emotions thus remove "meaning" from our thoughts and behavior. — Nickolasgaspar
There's literally liike atleast 20 messages explaining all of this, and I honestly tired of saying the same thing over and over again. I will reply to it one last time here.Necessary to whom and what does that person or those people have as values?
When were they necessary and to whom and for what purpose and according to what values? — Bylaw
I guess you didnt read the entire discussion word by word properly, cuz we are assuming that a world without emotions exists. And the discussion is about how it will be better or worse than reality.-I don't think that we have a choice.....They come with the biological body we rock..lol — Nickolasgaspar
Duh.I guess you are making a "what if" hypothetical question...right? — Nickolasgaspar
This statement is just factually incorrect. Emotions arent necessary in our mental functions as humans.Emotions are necessary in our mental functions as humans (and in animals). We even discovered primitive "emotions" in flies guiding their behavior. — Nickolasgaspar
Since emotions dont exists in our 'hypothetical', we have nothing to scan.So "meaning" is what we "scan" our emotions for — Nickolasgaspar
My brain left the chat while reading this.This is the huge difference between AI and Biological intelligence. The first is guided by algorithms that are updated( try and error) with the intention to reach the defined goals set by the code, while the second guides an organism to select a behavior that makes senses(meaning) in relation to satisfying a specific emotion. — Nickolasgaspar
Bruh, did you even read this before sending?Without emotions we won't have organisms trying to understand what it means to feel that way and what he/she should do to address that emotion. — Nickolasgaspar
Wouldnt, unable.And if such a reality existed, you wouldn't be unable to make any evaluation on how that world appears to you. — Nickolasgaspar
Science begs to differ.
If we go to the root of all emotions and desires, we are not that different from robots.
I believe that emotions and desires don't define us, our intelligence does.
A murderer has reasons to do crime, he did it because of his desire to kill or emotion.
Whereas if he just used logic, he would have come to the conclusion of killing someone. — Kinglord1090
