Determinism vs. Libertarianism: The universe is not pre-determined. Current physics suggests that if we started from the Big Bang again, we would not get the same result. This raises intriguing questions about determinism. If the universe itself is not deterministic, can we truly claim that our actions are entirely by our biology what about randomness in physics? Should a biological machine, governed by the principles of physics and biology, be subject to the control or constraints of another biological machine?
No, we do not have free will; our decisions are determined by our biology. We are biological machines. However, this does not mean that if we started over again, you and I would necessarily be here.
To answer your question, "Can AI make moral choices?" we need to first ask whether humans can make moral choices based on a consistent moral foundation. If humans are capable of making consistent and non-contradictory moral decisions, then it is possible that AI could also make consistent moral decisions. However, if humans cannot consistently make moral choices, then logically, AI will also struggle to do so. Consider the perspective of economists who doubt that humans are consistently moral. This skepticism dates back to Adam Smith, who observed, “It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own self-interest. We address ourselves not to their humanity but to their self-love, and never talk to them of our own necessities, but of their advantages.” Given this viewpoint, can we truly identify a solid moral foundation in our society? Welcome to the reality of Socratic principles and the Socratic Method, where the elites and the powerful continue to cunningly perpetuate scams within Western democracy. Be cautious-what happened to Socrates may also happen to you. Consider the case of Julian Assange. Just as Socrates faced persecution for challenging the status quo and seeking truth, Assange has experienced severe consequences for his efforts to expose governmental and institutional misconduct. Both cases serve as stark reminders of the risks involved in confronting powerful entities with inconvenient truths.
First, you need to slow down your speaking and cover less material in each video, raising only one question at a time if you want to address the problem of civilization effectively. I agree that transparency is crucial, but you are not demonstrating it. If you claim that we live in a moral society, how do you reconcile the acceptance of immoral or unethical actions?
Let us keep it simple: unless you can effectively argue against the principle that your actions must "benefit one and all" to be ethical, you risk creating a society where "might makes right." In such a society, the definition of what is right becomes skewed by those in power. Currently, power still resides in institutions like the church and state, not in true democracy, as evidenced by the death of Socrates. Much of your video's content would not withstand the scrutiny of the Socratic method.
No. It doesn't look like we do. Having free will wouldn't make sense. Actually, if you think about it, the illusion of free will is actually another illusion itself.
