nj - I, operating as a being who finds: "intrinsic value is an epistemically subjective property of an ontologically objective thing." would like to ask you how you consider, if at all, methods of value that are not human-based. I sometimes wonder if I have the right to eat animals, other beings of made of flesh. I doubt anyone would argue that mamals (at least) have much difference from us in terms of F1 trasforms. What elements of our biology should be included as a matter of course, or how far does being a member of homo sapiens take your quoted ontology? If modeling is at the core of NLP how far does it expand? Only to self-consciousness? Or do we all eat twigs? I'm not trying to hassle people who eat meat - myself I'm an omivore. And as with most other bullshit this question is just a mental exercise, feel free to respond or not. |
