<div>Since you brought it up:)</div> <div>This is way out there, I know. But what the heck, i'm known</div> <div>now to do and say strange things:)</div> <div> </div> <div>I was wondering if astrology could help in building AI.</div> <div>Don't get me wrong, I was looking at it from the point of view</div> <div>of catagorizing certain charactestics based on the time frame </div> <div>of when your born.</div> <div> </div> <div>When creating a "Friendly AI", how will it know how to relate </div> <div>to humans? </div> <div> </div> <div>The Blue Man Theory, (looking at it from the point of view that</div> <div>everybody looks exactly the same, blue, bald, 136p and 5'6) </div> <div>is a way to learn to focus on body language, facial expression,</div> <div>and spoken language, leaving out all forms of prejudice.</div> <div> </div> <div>So how will an AI distinguish between the characteristics of all</div> <div>these Blue
people?</div> <div>For example:</div> <div>The AI meets #128766 (named Joe) and recognizes that Joe is</div> <div>nice, timid and lazy. It will catagorize it. Then meets</div> <div>#178654 (named Sara) and recognizes that Sara is sweet, </div> <div>educated and egotistical. It will catagorize it.</div> <div>I'm assuming that once the AI has met enough blue people, it </div> <div>will find a way to group certain characteristics or find the link</div> <div>between them.</div> <div> </div> <div>I am a strong believer in astrology based on the idea that people</div> <div>born at a certain times have similar characterics (Again, from a point</div> <div>of view of the Blue Man Theory). </div> <div>This can't be proven, I know, it's just my experiences and </div> <div>observations that have led me to be curious.</div> <div> </div> <div>Could Astrology just be a way for humans to learn about </div>
<div>characterics? </div> <div> </div> <div>It would seem ludicrious to believe that human characterics are </div> <div>unique per individual therefore there must be a way compute it.</div> <div>How can something that's been around that long have no meaning</div> <div>or reason?</div> <div> </div> <div>Anna:)</div> <div> <B><I></I></B></div> <div><B><I>Damien Broderick <thespike@satx.rr.com></I></B> wrote:</div> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px">barf:<BR><BR>http://www.ulrichbold.com/astrology.htm<BR><BR>Evolutionary Astrology focuses on the soul's evolution and its core <BR>dynamics for the current life relative to abilities, potential, fears <BR>and karmic issues coming from experiences of previous lifetimes.
