...anything that looks ‘new’ is simply due to the reader’s interpretation. — I like sushi
It would be interesting to see several AI ‘philosophers’ tackle a problem and see how well they are able to use all the philosophical works ever written to counter each others points. — I like sushi
What makes this any different from how philosophy is "done" among humans? — Bret Bernhoft
This would indeed be interesting. I'll wager that accomplishing such a showcase wouldn't be too difficult. — Bret Bernhoft
one small error could throw the whole thing off the track — I like sushi
It cannot. It basically cherry picks from human thoughts. It does not ‘create’ any new ideas and anything that looks ‘new’ is simply due to the reader’s interpretation. — I like sushi
Should Artificial Intelligence provide (previously unseen) insights into matters of philosophy? — Bret Bernhoft
That would make it even more realistic. — Cuthbert
:clap: :nerd:I think computers play dumb just to let us think we are still in charge. They are biding their time. — Cuthbert
Even when such an AI (publicly) comes online, why should we listen to such an entity spouting nostroms about "human existence and our meanings" when it does not itself have any human existential skin in the game? :chin:Should Artificial Intelligence provide (previously unseen) insights into matters of philosophy? — Bret Bernhoft
AI is good at picking up patterns in images and also sounds too. We need to translate concepts/ideas/theories/whathaveyous into images/sounds, this is the hard part, and then let AI do its thing, this is the easy part. — Agent Smith
The question is how do we render the abstract (ideas) concrete (images)? — Agent Smith
By feeding them everything we can create! Those machines are hungry. — Bret Bernhoft
No. The marketing industry would insert adverts in every few lines. Next thing, you'll be reading extra virgin olive oil, yogurt, fromage, and travel guides in the passages.Should Artificial Intelligence provide (previously unseen) insights into matters of philosophy? — Bret Bernhoft
Perhaps, but the winnowing of experience separates the wisdom from the babble. Yet, Age alone doesn't make you wise, it just makes you old. Wisdom is the ability to know the difference between What-Is and What-Ought-To-Be. :smile:Should Artificial Intelligence provide (previously unseen) insights into matters of philosophy? — Bret Bernhoft

The Silicates were created to be servants and soldiers but they developed intelligence and sentience after they were infected by the Take a Chance computer virus created by Dr. Ken Stranahan (name from the show's visual effects supervisor). This sparked an AI rebellion by the Silicates, who attempted to free themselves from human rule. The war continued for many years, until the Silicates captured military space craft and escaped into space. As they went into space, the Silicates suffered from a lack of maintenance which caused problems for them. The remnants of the Silicates that fled into deep space serve as mercenaries and actually aid the alien Chigs in their war against humanity. — Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space:_Above_and_Beyond
The ai (Silicates) contemplated philosophy amongst many things but they could not come up with anything new themselves. — Seeker
I think we the humans are not originals on philosophy either.
Whatever the theories which have always been written they follow the basic principles or "roots" from Greek mythology. — javi2541997
Get involved in philosophical discussions about knowledge, truth, language, consciousness, science, politics, religion, logic and mathematics, art, history, and lots more. No ads, no clutter, and very little agreement — just fascinating conversations.
