@Devon_Eriksen_ But that's all a good thing. Why would we ever want to build a thinking machine? What we want is a tool, one that can be way smarter than us in useful and specific ways, so that we can use it to our advantage. Who would ever want a digital human?
@FFiorioPizurno "Hacernos conocer" no es la función del presidente de la republica. El presidente está para dirigir el Poder Ejecutivo en el país. Si la Cancillería, REDIEX, Sernatur, embajadores y cónsules no hacen su trabajo, deben ser destituidos. Al presidente se le eligió para gobernar acá
@prerat When they are worded this way, it makes it hard to actually understand what's going on. It confuses people into one of the two outcomes. Simply poor wording, not framing.
@Mutaali_Martins@nayibbukele He will definitely solve crime. You can worry about it being unfair to certain individuals in the group, but there is no question that it will be effective in solving crime
@jorgeesquivelpy@RocioVallejoA Mucho menor?? El tipo fue juez de jueces sin siquiera saber de derecho. Violación directa y pisoteo a la constitución y a todo lo que representa un Estado de Derecho
Most people think of philosophy as an abstraction that doesn't touch the real world, but they're wrong.
Most real world problems are philosophy problems, and most philosophy problems are "giving things the wrong names".
For example, if you call feral drug addicts "homeless people", then you can't solve the problem. You can only buy more houses for feral drug addicts to destroy.
In this case, we called the police and courts the "justice system".
But they're not. They can't be the justice system.
The function of a justice system would be to give everyone what they deserve.
Now, I deserve a hundred million dollars, a private Caribbean island, and a foot massage from Lauren Bacall in her prime, but I don't see the "justice" system lifting a finger to correct any of this, do you?
No, what we are supposed to have is a public safety system.
The function of a public safety system is to keep the public and their property safe.
If we understood that, we wouldn't care about what criminals deserve. We would care how likely they are to do it again. Or something worse.
In a public safety system, retardation and mental illness are not migrating factors. They are the opposite.
Because they mean that the criminal is more likely to pose a future threat.
We all understand this.
We all understand that the feral retard who stabs strangers on the train for being White and beautiful is a worse person than the man who murders his wife and her lover when he catches them in the act.
Not because of some abstract calculus of moral agency, of who is disadvantaged and who isn't, but because one is certainly going to murder more people if he can, while the other is a lot less likely to.
We've known for centuries, if not millennia, that it's the same small percentage of people doing all the robbing, raping, and murdering, over and over and over again.
And we've known for centuries that if you physically remove them from society, that's 100% effective in stopping them from doing it again.
The only hurdle is philosophical. Call it a "justice" system, and you have to argue endlessly about morality and redemption, and then some leftie thug-hugger weaponizes your own Christianity against you.
Call it public safety, and you confine the argument to likelihood of reoffense. Then you are in the realm of statistics. Which you can compute.
It all starts with naming things correctly, according to their actual nature.
@FFiorioPizurno@ElpremaArturopy No minimices la corrupción (delincuencia sistemática) al decir que existe en otros paises. Yo conozco lo que pasa en mi pais, y es grave.
