Artificial Intelligence Sensory Input
2,535 words
Artificial Intelligence is based in the view that
the only way to prove you know the mind's causal
properties is to build it. In its purest form, AI
research seeks to create an automaton possessing
human intellectual capabilities and eventually,
consciousness. There is no current theory of human
consciousness which is widely accepted, yet AI
pioneers like Hans Moravec enthusiastically
postulate that in the next century, machines will
either surpass human intelligence, or human beings
will become...

Personal Identity and the Afterlife Identity

whether that thing is an objective physical entity
or a subjective idea that has to be mentally
constructed. To understand the nature of these
abstract ideas, we must first understand the
concept of identity. When speaking of identity,

identity of the self. This self could be the
attributes that a person attaches to himself.
Gender identity is a simple att...

Marx Theory Of Money
1,273 words
The Theory of Money and the Theory of Value The
most important point to emerge from Marx's theory
of money is the idea that money is a form of
value. The difficulty with this idea is that we
are more familiar with money itself than with
value in other forms. But value does appear in
forms other than money. For example, the balance
sheet of a capitalist firm estimates the value of
goods in process and of fixed capital which has
not yet been depreciated, as well as the value of
inventories of fini...

Amy Tan Cultural Background

As I walked up to the future interior designer of
the Ahmad family, I wondered the extent to which
Nusrat Ahmad had taken her designing career. I saw
Nusrat sitting on the lush green sofa in the
corner of her family room, thinking that one day
she would be strategically placing sofas in other
people's houses. Belonging to a Pakistani family,
I wanted to question the extent of approval she
received from her family and relatives and inquire
about other South Asians artists in today's
community. Ju...

... notion of Divine Command, which is being
originated by William Ockham. It tells us that it
is an individuals duty to God, which alone should
be used, while trying to figure out whether any
particular action is moral or not. Yet, we cannot
be considering this theory seriously, because the
existence of God has never been proved
scientifically. Therefore, it cannot serve as the
basis, upon which the argument might be
established. (3) But the other approach, suggested
by Emmanuel Kant, is much m...

How Has Diversity Shaped Western Civilization

How has diversity shaped Western civilization? In
recent times, the term diversity became a buzz
word, which is being applied by the pushers of
left wing agenda, mostly out of context. We are
made to believe that Western civilization will
gain immensely, because of our society becoming
less and less racially homogeneous. The hawks of
political correctness do not bother to come up
with any real proofs, while making their argument.
We are simply expected to agree with whatever we
are being told, o...

Educational Attainment And Social Class

Educational Attainment and Social Class (1) There
can be no doubt as to the fact that educational
attainment and class affiliation are closely
related categories. After all, it is highly
improbable to find children of welfare recipients
among students of Harvard or Yale. However, does
it automatically mean that children of rich
parents are guaranteed to succeed, during the
course of their academic studies? Before we get to
answer this question, let us define the very
essence of enrollment criter...

Meditations On First Philosophy Cartesian Dualism

Meditations by Descartes The main feature of
European philosophical thought is that it never
loses its actuality, regardless of whether it
promotes the idea of thing of itself or denies
objectivity to anything that doesnt have a direct
relation to our sensory perception of the world.
One of the best examples to this is philosophy of
Rene Descartes, which shows us that ones ability
to operate with abstract categories accounts as
the most important factor, when it comes to
establishing a certain s...

Women at the Spring Picasso gave his figures a
sense of maximum volume, mass and density. The
figures in the Three Musicians are the same size
but by contrast are weightless, disembodied,
almost two dimensional. Yet, as presences, they
are equally "real" and even more impressive. In
1920 Picasso had designed costumes for Pulcinella,
a ballet based on the old Italian Commedia dell "
Arte. The following year, in the Three Musicians,

Members Of The Community Sexual Satisfaction

Contemporary Worldviews The relation between
person and society has always been a topic of
philosophical exploits of great many authors. The
realization humankind is highly social species has
even led to referring to man as homo social by
many contemporary psychologists. In this respect
it interesting to compare the ideas of Sigmund
Freud and George Simmel, whose views on the issue
of mens interaction with society, used to be very
popular at the beginning of twentieth century.

The Concrete Dangers of Abstract Illusion Man is

existence. Since the effervescence of human
greatness created by the Renaissance, the
superiority of man has been continually

still remains the domain of abstract concepts,
which cannot be mastered, or even grasped entirely
by the most profound member of human civilization.
In the realm of these abstract concepts, William

Pioch, a famous art historian, maintains that the
surrealist movement represented a reaction against
