For #JabeOnAI – Let’s start with one of the themes I will keep returning to … the map is not the territory … (to learn more on that, you can “search up” #AlfredKorzbski )…
So, to get us started. …
A map is a representation … and one way or another … AI systems operate on representations … or you might describe them as maps … which are by definition an abstraction … set back from the territory … which humans … inhabit … and you can learn why that is significant by looking into the field of 4E cognition (#Embodied, #Embedded, #Enacted or #Extended – you could “search up” the book edited by #AlbertNewen, #LeonDeBruin, and #ShaunGallagher) … and that is a pretty good stepping off point to consider the #limitations of #AI, and the differences with the #human, and you might say the #vibrancy and the #depth of what we are as opposed to AI systems … (how is that for a starter?)
I think this post leaves loads of space for ambiguity, debate, and misapprehension! More soon.
