determinisim, in determining legal personhood

AI governance will eventually take the notion of "deterministic outcomes" more seriously. 

Current tech approaches are based on "non-deterministic" fundamentals, which is why there is a lot of confused tolerance for the approach of governing AI "conversationally", the way we govern humans. Eventually there will probably be "classification standards", which establish degrees to which a synthetic mind is "deterministic" or "non-deterministic" in its output. 

Legal governance will depend on this. It's probably the case that "deterministic systems" will be regulated as tools, where responsibility falls more upon a tool-user who is a legal person. Correspondingly, "non-deterministic systems" are ultimately black-boxes just like meatheads, and it may make more sense to establish for them "gradients of legal personhood, based on standards of maturity", based on how we traditionally govern human children.

Most barriers to learning are political

 Most barriers to learning are political. 

Broadly, barriers to well-known knowledge are often mere [ absences of algorithmic documentation ], a.k.a. [ incomplete documentation ].

Often, incomplete documentation is tolerated as a class-filter to moat out new members of the organisation, or community, who are class-aspirants seeking upward mobility.

The completion of documentation, depends on economic incentives ... sometimes a shortage of learned people, raises the bidding price, making documentation worth paying for; sometimes an abundance of charity, creates  documentation philanthropically, lowering the asking price.

kemaluan kita

Budaya politik Malaysia memalukan. Bukan sebab apa, selain daripada kebergantungan kepada perasaan kemaluan.


Kalau dapat buang rasa malu dalam politik, negara mesti sudah jadi lain. Tapi kemaluan itu budaya kita.

Apa la
