How do you know that we are not bound by strict logic?

You are not alone in that confusion. Ai is whatever a machine can’t do at the moment. That is a famous paradox.

For example for years some philosophers claimed a computer could never beat the human masters of chess. They argued that you need a kind of intelligence for that, which machines cannot develop.

Turns out chess programs are relatively easy. Some time after that the unbeatable goal was Go. So many possibilities in Go. No machine can conquer that! Turns out they can.

Another unbeatable goal was natural language which we kinda solved now or are in the process of.

It’s strange in the actual field of computer science we call all of the above AI while a lot of the public wants to call none that. My guess is it’s just humans being conceited and arrogant. No machine (and no other animal mind you) is like us or can be like us (literally something you can read in peer reviewed philosophy texts).

Lemmy really is a bubble… Comments like this are really alienating me sometimes. Growing up not in abject poverty but also not financially secure does change my outlook on many things.

The multiple comments of beeing surprised that someone can find moderately expensive chocolate (which in itself is mostly a luxury good) luxurious really feels to me like people making fun of socioeconomically worse of others. It is probably not meant that way tho.

In my experience even really rich people don’t think of themselves as rich. There is always someone with more wealth in their circle. What really separates the haves from the have nots is the things they take for granted. This can create friction with the people that either can afford these things but don’t take them for granted or even worse the people that cannot afford it in the first place.

I do not have a solution for this but it affects almost everyone as there almost surely is someone less well of then them. Who’ll think of one as rich.

It isn’t? Yes there is way more expensive chocolate but Lind isn’t cheap.
