Will AI develop better intelligence, knowledge, and wisdom (ikw)?

May 27, 2024

Artificial intelligence (AI) is quickly becoming the best technology (tool and method) for developing intelligence, knowledge, and wisdom (ikw). This "ikw" is the key to creating a good life (i.e. a productive and enjoyable existence). 

What is intelligence?

Intelligence is the ability to acquire knowledge and develop skills to achieve wisdom. Below, the proposition that all intelligence comes from data processing, and that without data processing there is no intelligence. Before, brief questions and answers about what is knowledge, what are skills, how are knowledge and skill acquired, what is wisdom and how it is acquired. After that, a brief observation about how AI may be the best technology (tool and method) for the acquisition of intelligence, knowledge, and wisdom (ikw). 

What is knowledge?

Knowledge is awareness of events; understanding of causality of those events; and mastery predicting those events.

  • Awareness comes from "sensing" (i.e. registering) changes in environmental variables. Biological cells develop environmental awareness by registering reactions to changes in the environment. 
  • Understanding causality comes from learning (connecting neurally) which processed reactions (PR) to changes in the environment lead to which internal results.
  • Mastery of predictability comes from recognizing what changes in which variables correspond to which changes in what environmental events. 

How is knowledge acquired?

The Three Es of Learning. Knowledge is acquired from learning which comes from experience, experimentation, and education (EEE) or the "3Es of learning". 

  • Experience is perceiving reactions (PR) to an event (i.e. a change in environmental variables). Experiencing a change entails perceiving reactions (PR) to the environmental change and reactions
  • Experimentation is forcing an event to register its processed reactions (PR).             
  •  Education is going over the processed reactions (PR) to an experience or experimentation. 

What are skills?

Skills are applied knowledge. Skills are are learned and developed by practice. Procedural repetition (PR) of synaptic connections enforce the connections, leading to learning and development of skills.

What is wisdom?

Wisdom is optimal agency (choice or decision-making) by applying knowledge and skills to obtain desired results and avoid undesirable ones.

How is ikw developed?

Developing ikw (intelligence, knowledge, and wisdom) is all about data processing. That is, it's all about the intake of certain input, and its processing (applying a function) to generate an output. In living organisms, the cells are the data processing units. In artificial units, the microprocessors are the data processing units. 

To be continued. It's clear where this is going. The better the data processing, the better ikw. The better ikw, the best life possible.

Stay tuned.

When will the Tesla bubble burst?

December 11, 2024 When will the Tesla bubble burst?  We don't know Fools rush in. It's impossible to know exactly when the Tesla bubble will finally burst. Unfortunately for us at Creatix, we began shorting Tesla too soon. We are down almost 40% on our position as of today. We are not fooling ourselves thinking that we were ever make money on the short position. We truly doubt that Tesla can go down 40% any time soon.  We would love to add to the short position, but it would exceed our $3,000 limit on the stupid bets that we do for fun. We're not Mr. Beast. We have a very limited budget for ridiculousness. We would love to short Tesla tomorrow morning at the ridiculous share price of $424. Tesla is trading at an incredible 116 times earnings, which gives Tesla a market capitalization of $1.32 Trillion. Elon Musk added today $13.4 billion to his fortune. Yes, $13 billion in one day. Yesterday, he had added $11 billion. Yes, that's $24 billion in 2 days.  Six months ago, ...

Will prices go up or down during the Second Coming of Trump?

December 12, 2024 Will prices go up or down during the Second Coming of Trump? President-elect Donald Trump has acknowledged the difficulty of reducing grocery prices, stating, "It's hard to bring things down once they're up."  Lower Energy Costs and Better Logistics Trump hopes that lower energy costs and improved supply chains may prevent significant price increases on food. However, many economists believe that Trump's tariffs on foreign countries and massive deportation of illegal immigrants, which include millions of undocumented farm workers, will increase food prices.  Additionally, while Trump emphasizes the role that potentially lower energy prices may have in food costs, experts note that energy constitutes a relatively small portion of food production expenses. Energy prices may also increase despite experts forecasting that they will stay relatively low or go further down. After all, economists and financial experts are wrong often, almost all of the t...

Is there a Tesla bubble?

December 10, 2024 Is there a Tesla bubble? You bet. As of December 10, 2024, Tesla (Ticker: TSLA) is approaching an all-time high valuation, with a current share price of $401. The record closing price stands at $410, achieved on November 4, 2021. This gives the American electric car maker a market capitalization of $1.26 Trillion.  Tesla is trading at 110 times earnings. The average price to earnings ratio in the "traditional" automotive industry (excluding Tesla, and also excluding Chinese car makers) is about 6.7. That is, while almost all car makers in the world trade at 7 times earnings in average, Tesla is trading at 110, which is 15 times the industry average.  Major Automakers (Excluding Tesla and Chinese car makers) ranked by P/E: Subaru Corporation (Ticker: 7270.T): 12.0 Suzuki Motor Corporation (Ticker: 7269.T): 10.0 Toyota Motor Corporation (Ticker: TM): 9.70 Isuzu Motors Limited (Ticker: 7202.T): 9.0 Honda Motor Co., Ltd.
