[ExI] "Thoughts Without a Thinker" re: Heroism without self-sacrifice

[citta437 at aol.com]

Marvin Minsky sometime ago wrote a book, "Thoughts Without a Thinker." 
It sounds similar to "Heroism without self-sacrifice."

Thoughts of heroism are thoughts embedded in memory with no apparent 
owner, thinker or an uncaused cause.

Even an AGI is caused. Some scientific discoveries happen by random 
chance. Who owns/controls chance?
Thoughts of heroism entails this curiosity to know the unknown without 
fear of failure or hope for success.

Just thoughts,
