What if our brain's architecture limits our ability to comprehend and consider our moral bearing?

What if many of us don't have a sufficient brain architecture?

Can
We
Judge
?

BTW, intelligence can be demonstrated without the complexity required for a sound moral position. I.e. Intelligent people can be immoral.

I'm reading Ray Kurzweils' book The Singularity is Nearer.

He's stated that our brains have 6 levels of processing that, incrementally, build our ability to think abstractly.

Idea: Maybe not everyone has the last layer fully enabled. Maybe that's why some people can't comprehend certain topics nor have empathy.

They just never developed the wiring.

It's phyiological. Maybe not moral.

I don't think there has been a person with as much ability to have such a large impact on the culture and future of a large country than Donald Trump this week.

He can announce a call to arms and initiate a civil war.

He can make a call for unity and calm and return us to moderation.

He can make either decision, and he has a history of doing the former more than the latter.

Hey @AskTheDevil,
Is it a good thing?
Or a bad thing?
That Trump survived?

And

Is the shooter
A good person?
Or
A bad person?

On balance, is the human species Good or Bad?

Is anyone else experiencing a completely different work-day because of AI?

I'm on an AI 80% of my day.
Long days, too.

My progress is stunning to me.

Actual work, too. Analysis, synthesis, code, results. No funny stuff, either.

Anyone?

This is a prime example of Machiavellian strategy:
Modi hugging Putin

Morality be damned.
Primal habits are hard to kill.

If you are using AI to code or set up development environments, be aware that it will suggest deprecated modules.
Stay out of rabbit holes.
Ask another LLM if there are other options besides the one being suggested.

I want my 6 hours back.

“I’m also pleased to announce that as we speak, the transfer of F-16 jets is underway, coming from Denmark, coming from the Netherlands. And those jets, those jets will be flying in the skies of Ukraine this summer to make sure that Ukraine can continue to effectively defend itself against the Russian aggression,” Blinken said at the NATO Public Forum in Washington, DC.

Another example of the San Francisco Doom Loop. Too much fun and happiness.

Orange County, CA is a bastion of selfishness.
The way people drive.
Their overt T-shirts.
Their attitude in parking lots.
While the weather is nice, this culture really sucks.

Boating and driving through Orange County today.
Many, many Trump flags and hats.
Surprisingly, many are teenagers.

I live in a bubble in San Francisco.

America is very different.

I will have to assume the worst will begin to unfold for this country.

Happy 4th of July!

And Firefly Space fired off a rocket that could be seen from the Fairgrounds!

Enjoy sunset at the Costa Mesa Fairgrounds, just before the fireworks kick off!

A woman was killed by a robber yesterday at Fashion Island shopping mall in Newport Beach, CA.
My wife had wanted to go there yesterday about the same time.

I protested. I wanted to walk on the beach. We did.

We had a better day.

Family can be really weird.
Even if it's the in-laws.
Throw in some dementia and cancer and .... Whoa boy...

The latest thinking on why we are probably alone in our galaxy.

The wife is home from biz travels! Yay!

She was appalled that I ate all of the snacks I said I purchased the day she left.
I didn't tell her I purchased even more and ate them, too.

I also didn't tell her I skipped dinner last night and stayed up until 2am drinking martinis.

I've become a really shitty bachelor.

She can't leave anymore.
I won't make it.
