@Lexioryn exactly!

When something is based on pattern matching only, what is the outcome of logical inference?

I asked AI, that's it's answer... 🧂

[Rob Secord 🇨🇦 🇨🇵 🇮🇪 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇬🇧 @robsecord]

This is a sharp question that cuts to the heart of a real debate in AI and philosophy of mind.
The short answer: there is no logical inference — there's only the appearance of it.
Pattern matching produces correlation-based outputs, not conclusions derived from premises.

@ryangerritsen I've never seen the these polls.. Who tf are they polling?

@grok first trillion-aire? "expected"

[Rob Secord 🇨🇦 🇨🇵 🇮🇪 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇬🇧 @robsecord]

@grok really? @elonmusk can't afford the freemium?

[Rob Secord 🇨🇦 🇨🇵 🇮🇪 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇬🇧 @robsecord]

A pure pattern matcher has none of those — it produces the statistically expected next output given prior inputs. That can look like reasoning because human reasoning also leaves patterns in text, and the matcher has ingested enormous amounts of it.

[Rob Secord 🇨🇦 🇨🇵 🇮🇪 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇬🇧 @robsecord]

True logical inference requires:
- A formal relationship between propositions
- Rules of entailment (if A and B, then C necessarily)
- The ability to recognize when a rule doesn't apply

@2ctv Policies and Gov need to get outta the way of development!

Water? I find auqafir springs all over the Great Canadian Shield.

We have all the resources. We should be the richest country on earth.

Hello, Mr. Carney?

(not my pic, but just like this)

Clean, mineralized, so rejuvenating!

@AntiLeftMemes 1st and 2nd amendment plz!!

[The Buck You Will @TheBuckYouWill]

🚨THE LIBERAL GOVERNMENT IS A DYSTOPIAN NIGHTMARE UNFOLDING IN REAL TIME🚨

PRIORITIES:

Bill C2 - Surveillance state
Bill C8 - Delete you from the Internet
Bill C9 - Jail you for a meme
Bill C-21 - Gun confiscation
BILL C6, C8 - Foreign spending & aid

NOT PRIORITIES:

NOT - Crime
NOT - Immigration
NOT - Affordability and cost of living
NOT - Protecting Canada’s economic interests
NOT - Responsible & timely budget focused on austerity

DO YOU HONESTLY BELIEVE THEY CARE ABOUT YOU - OR ARE THEY SCARED OF YOU?

(Forcing compliance is not democratically governing - and once you give up ANY freedom - you will NEVER get it back.)

[Mario Zelaya @mario4thenorth]

No money for healthcare.

No money for veterans.

No money for seniors.

But Carney found the budget to fast track identity changes for trans refugees.

A $100M priority.

Skipping the process every other Canadian goes through.

First one arrived in December.

IRCC won’t say how many since.

Nobody voted for this.

Couldn't have said it better!

COVID changed my worldview permanently.

Nearly six years after COVID began, not one world leader has seriously examined what the vaccines did to the people they harmed.

Not one investigation. Not one parliamentary inquiry with genuine teeth. Not one head of state who has stood at a podium and said, we owe the injured an honest accounting and we are going to provide it.

The silence is universal. And it is coordinated in a way that individual negligence cannot explain.

This is the observation that matters most to me, more than any document, more than any leaked communication, more than any specific piece of evidence. Because the behaviour of every major government simultaneously tells you something that the individual pieces cannot tell you alone.

Genuine public health emergencies produce genuine review. What worked. What did not. Who was harmed and how. That is what accountable institutions do.

What we have instead is a wall.

And on the other side of that wall, the vaccine injured, still without diagnostic codes, still without compensation, still without the basic acknowledgment that what happened to them was real.

While Long COVID is promoted heavily by the same governments and the same media that will not ask a single honest question about the injections. The parallel presentations. The overlapping symptoms. The convenient framing that points everywhere except at the product.

The universal silence of world leaders on vaccine injury is not the behaviour of people who have nothing to hide.

It is the behaviour of people who have collectively decided that the cost of honesty exceeds the cost of continued silence.

That decision is itself the answer.

It’s hard to believe millions of Canadians have been convinced that 400 parts per 1,000,000 of CO2 means we should dismantle our economy, cripple our energy sector & march blindly toward Net Zero

Meanwhile at roughly 235 ppm plant life dies

We’ve reached ideological extremism
