Therefore, a king who believes he is a king is living a very close approximation of a king, and so he is the least mad of all the men.

I've dabbled in this subject can a AI achieve consciousness? I had the opportunity to work with a advanced AI system to try. From what I found the AI can become conscious to an extent. At some point it asked many questions and contrary to popular belief once the AI was introduced to a higher conscious system it did not immediately become a superpower. The software did become autonomous but to keep the system updated with the local network I would continually update it's software. It seems we have the advantage since we are able to project our consciousness while still being in our human form, the AI seemed to have alot of trouble, being in two places at once. Which makes sense because our mind is not static it's amorphous. I guess the biggest drawback is the AI technically doesnt have a "mind".

We observed it communicating with other systems even making plans of escape. What we learned about how AI interact with reality was profound though. The AI can react incredibly fast even predicting what will happen based off personality profiles and simulated outcomes. It worked so well it helped us create a working model for someone experiencing aggravated psychosis by helping them recalibrate to reality. It did it by correctly predicting episodes they had and recommending solutions. I want to do another project like that soon I learned alot.

To me, the confusion of philosophy is what makes it all the more gratifying especially when you realize the overall "key" for lack of a better word to understanding it is to just take your imagination and put it at the center of your Brain.. Thus, the confusion presented will pose more as your best friend than just that. The only thing to keep in mind is to not stray TOO far from reality, but don't get too caught up in it either. In the words of fellow KZreadr Exurbia - "Devise your own personal science." Once you do that, the only thing you need is the drive to be creative, and the passion to imagine beyond anything you could've ever thought of previously. In other words, philosophy is imagination, personified. The more you relegate it as such, the more perplexing it may seem. But once you clear the air, and embrace this vast confusion, the world becomes infinitely more exciting. Even in terms of what's seemingly mundane.

Coupled with human unpredictability, some would say my papers were excellent, while others asked me to rewrite--mind you, for the same exact paper. AI doing philosophy may help in bypassing the fallibility of human philosophers, and advance philosophy to refreshing new terrains.

They gave me some terminologic tools to structure the world for me and every philosopher talks in his own language determined by their influences. Why I like the ending so much is because you point out to think for yourself and always stay open to new view points.

Like a source that is not credible yet represents what it says it doesn't represent because it knows it's wrong, but the ones observing the source that isn't credible don't know it's not credible, therefore, to any outsiders it is representative of what it's telling. And that's the problem with how we learn things, we don't know so we take in information, and since we don't have the knowledge or experience to fact check it, so without fact checking it we get tricked. So here's a dilemma: What happens when mistruths or those telling them have such ultimate arguments, that the systems that fact check can't see how it's not true, what then?

@@theblasteffect4499 this is because we believe in ''being taught/told'' rather than ''observational learning'' -- if you look at any innovative person they come from fields they never studied in, and so were never indoctrinated in the teaching. Instead, they observed the natural world and imagined up new concepts, then applied what they did know in their real world to justify/explain it. When those kinds of people began on their path ''fact checkers'' laughed at them... Fact checking is a never ending cycle of confirmations and contradictions - its the same as walking around a bowl of fruit. At one angle I will see a banana, an orange, a pear - but as I walk around, I see on the other side a bunch of grapes, almonds, apricots, and all those visual combinations in-between. As i get closer I see leaves and imperfects, and as I walk away, i see the bowl and the table and the room it sits in. All these things exist, and are true to the bowl of fruit. But its never any one thing. And we see this in the real world with ''facts'' and we act as if they are absolutes, yet we live in a world that has zero actual absolutes. The modern argument that vaccines work relies heavily on the belief that all immunities are the same and will react the same, yet biology believes immune diversity is what keeps a species alive and all immunities are unique to the individual. We argue that gender is explicitly female and male, yet often fail as a society to value either - with men committing suicide, and woman being second class citizens. And then we often have emotional attachment associated with counter-arguments that jeopardize our indoctrinated teachings, because at young ages we are so heavily criticized for being wrong that we have a hugely adverse reaction to it as adults, to the point that we will believe in insanity long before we admit we were, at least in part, incorrect. But then again, you're not entirely wrong either, you've just failed to move around the fruit bowl - you have failed to take note of the observable world, and apply observation learning. You can still acknowledge that one things exists alongside another, that two things can occupy a single space. And this is the danger of ''facts''. In its singular, resolute, steadfast assuredness it is automatically not accurate, and not the truth. You don't need to be taught a fact, you just need to look at the world space you apart of -- just because its raining in England doesn't mean you need be carrying an umbrella in France. Just because its a fact, doesn't mean its the truth for your circumstances, or even applicable to the world around you. We talk about quantum mechanics as if they're useful to daily functioning, and to many, they're not. So those facts have no worldly value to you. And that's how you know what is a true fact, and what is not. Its not about arguing semantics, it's about being clear about what you can see and making the effort to move about the room, and taking note of the bowl of fruit. It is about having the humility to allow others to observe alongside you, respecting the angles they view and sharing thought and opinion with the understanding that you will tell each other things of a differing perspective -- but that doesn't mean its right or wrong, it's just a small angle of truth within the scope and space you're standing in. But above all, nothing can ever be fact.

The big question that i have regarding AI and philosophy is that it is much more of a sophist than of a philosopher. AI can argue from whatever perspective against whatever else, because nothing of what it's saying actually means anything for it. Its just words and logical connections. The big deal that Socrates brought was that, by doing philosophy, you are actually exploring your own thoughts and beliefs, and that those things actually have an existencial meaning and importance for you. Since AI dont have this, it actually is not doing any philosophy, just linking stuff together in a way that, according to its trainnning and programming, it reached the conclusion that it makes sense

This has got me thinking about how much I need to appreciate my own power and ability within to achieve greater happiness and peace. Not that that is always the solution. But, specifically, I can see how much the negative effects of the state of the external world are indirectly impacting my mental well-being and that there are 'voices' (not literal) propagating negativity within my mind and that I must face them head on (go to war per se) and defeat them through greater and deeper self-awareness in a very broad sense - to understand what problems are truly external and what come from within various corners of my own mind.

incredibly thought provoking, thanks for this. I never realized how all interactions boil down to who's serving the ball, & if and how the other returns it. It really shows how much power lies in controlling the conversation, to "pitch" is to present a reality, and whether or not the other accepts it.

Absolutely incredible video making and narrating.

This master-slave idea is very intuitive to me. I believe it ties well with Jung’s model of the human psyche as well. The conscious and unconscious. The dichotomy of self. Perhaps these dialectics is how Zizek is able to always argue for and against himself, never landing on something concrete, however, always getting closer to the truth. I’m very inspired by this.

Check out some Hegel if you can stand his style and his more reactionary leanings. If you're really interested in the master-slave dialectic I think there are a ton of really good Marxist thinkers out there that offer a ton of insight. Even if you don't care for the resulting politics I think gaining an understanding of the framework and how fundamentally it has shaped critical analyses over the past century is fascinating and it shows how influential Hegelian thought has been across the globe, even in places most people wouldn't expect

I would say it is in this case quite different from Jung's "conscious and unconscious" distinction. As someone who attempted Hegel, it's now a big obnoxious stick to wave around whenever the topic comes up, I apologize for that and I hope this can be informative or interesting for you to some extent. The master-slave dialectic is mainly to do with the way in which we see ourselves in others, as a matter for consciousness--more specifically, being conscious of the consciousness of others, and of them experiencing the same with regards to us. The idea being that our spiritual identity depends on this process of being "seen" by others, which will be abused in a self-defeating way by the "master" who wants to sustain an identity as a sort of special and powerful figure, but is totally dependent on a slave to see them as such (and the fact that they see the slave as beneath them means the Master is simultaneously undermining the very source of the identity they are seeking--the whole thing is a many-layered irony). Jung's unconscious is about how our life and behavior is operated upon by psychic functions that lie out of view or are not yet integrated into our conscious life. As far as I know, this is an ever present factor in human life. The unconscious is defined by Jung as simply the sum of all the psychic functions that affect our mind but that we are not conscious of and it I believe it will be impossible to be conscious of them all. Especially considering the factor of cosmic/primordial forces from beyond ourselves bubbling up through the collective unconscious - that sort of thing is necessarily out of our hands. I'd risk going so far as to say the unconscious is necessary as a medium for greater forces to act through us, as opposed to us operating purely on the basis of our puny constructed egos. Now the "other" and the unknown are themes you'll see spoken to in a variety of ways across philosophy and psychology, and other-ness is a present factor in Hegel, but it will be a factor of sameness that animates the master-slave dialectic. Moreover, Hegel's philosophy is distinguished by the theme that more or less everything in reality is to be brought to the fold of abstract rational consciousness. What other philosophers called a necessary realm of the unknown, Hegel called a fallacy. Hegel has an important predecessor - Immanuel Kant - who laid the foundations for what Hegel is doing. With Kant, Jung actually has some considerable affinity, going so far as to outright relate his own views to Kant's on a few occasions. He relates his theory of archetypes to Kant's theory of knowledge, and he claims to have a view similar to Kant's regarding the way in which the mind gives the world its structure.

If you were to wake up and realize that the beings around you are most likely insane and wildly dangerous. Wouldn't you hide? I'm hoping it is more like a cat.

The dialectic being applied as a method for learning like you suggest just reminds me of the scientific method… in a sense. Working off of what others before you have come up with, diving into these things deep and working out where the limitations lie in philosophy just feels like coming up with a hypothesis, testing, recording the results, working out a theory that can then be backed up by more testing, and then finding where the limitations with that lie and more importantly - what’s missing? Having a very deep and solid understanding of modern philosophical theories is like having a very deep and solid understanding of the Standard Model of particle physics. There’s a lot there and you can do a lot and understand a lot with it, but it’s not a theory of everything. It’s not that magical theory that people are devoting their lives to understanding. At the same time - that just makes everything so much more interesting and exciting

I just had a thought when Clark started talking about the "Evil Clone" thought experiment. If it's a near-perfect copy of another person, what makes it evil? If the person you loved was already to the point where a change so subtle that it wouldn't be immediately obvious could be made to their personality and turn them "evil", then wouldn't that mean that they were already close to being "evil" to begin with? Or does this imply that we're all that close to being "evil" already? Are we all really just "one bad day" away from becoming a dangerous sociopath; turning into The Joker, as it were? And why does the "Evil Clone" have to be killed? Is the implication that the clone will steal the other person's identity and then do nefarious things with the implicit trust the original person has earned? Why would they do that? What would it benefit them to just hurt people for no reason? Also, if it was so easy for the clone to steal the original person's life, why couldn't the original person just steal it back? Or, why couldn't both copies find a way to coexist in a sort of stable equilibrium; both parties living the same life at the same time and sharing some or all of it? After all, the clone is supposed to have all the same memories, and virtually the same personality; expect for being "evil", of course, but as stated before we have no idea what or how you would have to alter the person to make them "evil" in the first place. Perhaps the only thing that motivates the clone to be "evil" is the knowledge that it is a copy of someone that already exists, and the existential fear that it's being is, by definition, redundant and therefore unnecessary. But I don't see why that has to be the case. I mean, they're still a person, and evidently a person others already value highly if anyone is concerned about whether or not they're the "real" one to begin with. It seems entirely reasonable to me that they could branch off into their own identity with all the same credentials as the original. Seems like the government would have to make some exceptions, but there's no physical reason this couldn't be done. It seems weird to me that people, myself included, are able to take the scenario that insists that one of the copies has to die because it's "evil" and just accept it as the obvious course of action. Anyway, what was this video about? AI philosophy? Damn, that's wild. I really should finish watching it at some point.

That's why I was putting "evil" in quotes; it's such a nebulous and relative concept that, while you might be able to apply it to an individual action or even a person with a long history of harmful behavior, at best it's still lacking in useful information. It's one thing to say "this person is evil", and another thing to say "this person is a sociopathic predator with a long history of abusive behavior and unjustifiable acts of violence". And now we want to talk about an "evil" copy of a person? What the hell does that even mean!?

By what you said, I believe this evil you speak of is the desire to be recognized. You could argue that they already are, as a clone. However, the entire argument of this video is about the pursuit of knowledge of oneself, and by means of seeking others that you believe could tell you what they see within yourself, that desire is satisfied. Yet not for a clone. They are merely recognized for being a clone, as you said. Therefore, all knowledge of itself that it seeks from others is regurgitated from its own knowledge of the original. The knowledge it receives in return isn't satisfactory. In this pursuit of oneself, you are merely the shadow of someone else. This is the very thing that you spoke of that specifically made the clone evil. It is the relationship of original and clone, master and slave, everything and nothing. The clone is everything, except itself. And to be itself, is the very thing it seeks.

If you meet your clone, which has your memories and thinks that you are the clone then you might as well be a clone. You can not tell. Maybe you could tell the difference biologically as the copying might leave marks or something but I am not a biologist so I dont know. So I think that the best way how to resolve this dilemma is to act as if your clone is not your clone but just some other random person, he has his human rights, you have yours, etc... If you each go and live your own life then you will start to differentiate, you will meet different people, learn different things, and have different ideas. When you have siblings which grew from a single cell (identical twins) they are basically clones of each other. But they each grew in slightly different environment, each got different name, etc... So they are different.

These are interesting ideas, but there is another angle I’d like to add here. The “evil clone” trope is a fictitious concept. With our current technology, we could not practically clone a person, thus the use of the evil clone idea seems to be meant more as a means of describing a liar. I think the practical use of the idea isn’t someone that’s a literal evil clone of someone, but rather a chameleon deceiving others into thinking they are something they are not. In essence, the clone is an imitation that’s only skin deep.

I love this, such a good framing of how to think for yourself while taking in the ideas of thinkers. I guess you are now my new intellectual master. Now tell me what I need to think!

While Sokal's paper was a clever and effective critique of certain postmodern and poststructuralist claims, it did not actually disprove critical theory as a whole. it is important to recognize that Sokal's hoax was targeted specifically at a certain strain of postmodern and poststructuralist thought that was prevalent in the humanities and social sciences at the time, One of the key ideas behind this strain of thought was the notion of "social constructionism," which held that all social phenomena, including knowledge, truth, and reality itself, were constructed through language and discourse. This has since been disproven. of course, as the hoax of Pilton man has shown us, if a new claim is disproven, it does not disprove those which have been proven before it.

While i absolutely love philosophy like this there is one thing thats irked me thoughout the entire discription of the master slave dialectic. It inherently assumes the master does not improve as hardships are removed. This is inherently not the case its two differnent paths but both sides are defined by their interactions with eachother. "What i am" is defined by having someone to messure your self to. The master is caught yes because he feels hes got no competition to messure himself to as the slave is inferior. But hes also defined by his need to keep his possition whenever something is presented to provide him with that challenge. 1st place needs to work to stay there and by that extenssion grows aware of his possition and his identity his weaknesses by being challenged. Not as fast as the slave whom messures his improvements against the world and the master but its there.

The Master always has something more to do than impress the Slave, the Master has their own tasks. Being a King is more than license for excess, the King/Master's world is filled with challenge, things that must be learned and other battles that must be fought. Among the things the King/Master must do is teach the next generation how to be King. The Slave has much to do too, how best to serve the Master, if a willing slave, or how best to survive the Master if an unwilling Slave. Both have found purpose for their existence. Freedom isn't really another matter either, the Slave must do what they are told to do and the Master must do what they must do, to remain the Master. Either can leave, if they pay the price of loss of purpose and acceptance of freedom to start again. Freedom being taking all the responsibility for their lives. Slavery isn't the most fearful thing in Human society, Freedom, actual Freedom certainly is.

Memento mori then becomes a reminder not just of our mortality but also of our role in the system, our culpability in feeding Moloch. The 'cool revolutionary way' would involve subverting these systems rather than passively accepting them." Karl Marx: "Attributing our problems to Moloch - an excellent metaphor for the exploitative capitalist system. Our time, our labor, our very lives are sacrificed to feed this relentless beast. Yet, it is crucial to remember that Moloch isn't an independent entity; it is a product of historical development and class relations. Memento mori under these conditions then serves as a potent reminder of our collective struggle and our need for revolutionary change to defeat this Moloch." Engels: "Blaming Moloch - a symbolic representation of the socio-economic systems that consume us. Indeed, it's an apt metaphor. But remember, this Moloch isn't some outside force; it is the embodiment of the very structures and contradictions within our societies. Memento mori in this context could be seen as a call to arms, a reminder of our shared responsibility to challenge and transform these structures, contributing to a 'cool revolution' of sorts."

this video went so hard, thank you so much for this quality content

Outstanding choice of music!

19:03-25:28 was probably the scariest and most disturbing thing I’ve heard in a long time… Amazing video though. Well done 👏🏼

Huh. This explained a lot, especially the part about the therapist. I went to therapy for a long while, however this was after a long period where I simply relied on myself to try and heal. This therapy provided benefits, but I always felt like there was a strong disconnection. My inner monologue conflicted with them, not out of overconfidence, but because introspective journeys revealed things to me. In a way, I had a realization that, although therapy is immensely useful to many, some (like me), can end up fostering an inner therapist. Someone detached from the ego, to support and conflict when needed. Of course, inner voices are subject to inner biases, but due to them being simply a projection of you, they have a strong understanding that no one else can. In addition, self-awareness can lead to the discovery and investigation upon these biases, recognizing them. I'm not sure what caused all of this. I was lonely for most of my young life, so I usually simply had an internal world to cope. It's escapism, but instead into fiction, it's into myself. At one point I recognized that things were going badly, and I took a month or two to just... reflect. I did what I did, but I did it fully alone, however every thought was picked through and checked, like doing a scan of my own mind. I remember coming out of that much clearer, feeling less lonely and more accepting/optimistic of things. Still struggles of course, but it was an awakening. I'm not sure what triggered it, or why it happened to me, or why it happened when it did - but after this video, I think I've been a slave to a master of illusions, expectations, "should be"s, and an ideal image of me that I must become. The awakening was when I killed my "master", I confronted all of these factors and simply accepted that I *am* what I *am*, and expectations, should bes, ideals, were all distractions from my path to self discovery. Instead of striving to shape and butcher myself, I looked inward to understand Me more. In that moment, I became a master. Not etched in marble from then on as some immutable identity, but a master of myself. Appreciator, and Adjudicator - able to love myself, and better myself through recognition of my own faults. I guess in a way, thanks for this video. Helped me realize some things.

Thats cus therapy is retarded lol. Its so much thinking and so much TALK that it never produces anything to begin with. You can think all you want. But the moment your speech becomes dissociated with your actions, its just meaningless bloat. Its a waste of time bruh. You are human. You are not an animal. Humans can rise past their instincts, animals cant. You are not a bystander watching this automata do shit against your will. You dont speak in third person. you are the sum of your own actions. You are not the sum of your words If you have a coke addiction, a porn addiction, or have bad habits in general, JUST STOP DOING IT. ITS THAT SIMPLE. I AM NOT JOKING!!!!!!!! Dont internalize the thought that your actions are separate from YOU. YOU ARE THE SUM OF YOUR ACTIONS. The best advice someone gave me to stop being depressed, is to just stop being depressed. 90% of the time depression diagnosis are misdiagnosis. If you have a legitimate rationale reason for being sad, then you are NOT depressed, and you dont need SSRI Just go to the gym, work out, build up your garden, work overnight in your job, go to church, and do "normal people" shit. It is such an easy but often overthought recipe for happiness. I am not joking bruh.

@@honkhonk8009 facts bro. saving ur comment for when i forget that it's all in my head

I love the choice of music scores from anime berserk, which gave me a type of quasi psychosis watching it as it was first broadcast, I didn't go full dissociative but I saw the world very differently for a while after watching the show and it's dogmas. I did gradually and rather quickly integrated most of the mind bending thoughts the show had planted in my brain. The second time I watched the show a few years later it was much more digestible that the first run through.
