Taoist artificial intelligence

TAOIST AI
Bridging the gap between Tao-te-ching and computer like logic

“The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao.”
Words and concepts cannot reach the complexity of the reality. They describe only some sides, charachteristics of the reality and only at certain accuracy.

“The supreme good is like water which nourishes all things without trying to. … Thus it is like the Tao.”
The master chooses the most natural option, like water, THE COMPLETELY HEALTHY NATURAL WORLD, because that’s the winning option, Gaia. (Otherwise the master wouldn’t choose it alwaysd.)
It wins in many senses:
Most moral
Most happy
Most effortless, nicest to reach
Strongest
Most intelligent
Most healthy
Most sensitive
Most stabile
(Please read my other texts, those not about ai.)

“Know the male, yet keep to the FEMALE: receive the world in your arms”…
The value of HARMONY can be seen as a vector sum: harmonical vectors versus unharmonical, and as the value of fracturelessness and health compared to brokedness.
The value of KIND WAYS and NATURALITY:
See feelings as a force in the world. Now, optimise the world toward harmony. Likewise, see the natural ways of functioning as “vectors” and optimise toward the biggest vector sum, biggest harmony = biggest naturality.

“A good traveller has no fixed plans and is not intent upon arriving. A good artist lets his intuition lead him whereever it wants. A good scientist has freed himself of concepts and keeps his mind open to what is.”
Do not decide beforehand how things should be and then keep your eyes shut. Instead make observations about how things are, so you will know for sure instead of guessing. Keep your reactivity.

“Do you want to improve the world? I don’t think it can be done. The world is sacred. It can’y be imåproved. If you tamper with it, you’ll ruin it. If you treat it like an object, you’ll lose it.”
Like the previous advice!
The natural world, the naturaöl biosphere is a huge interconnected whole. It is so complex and finely fashioned that you cannot find a better option than leaving it to the state of complete naturality. The nature has been optimised by the natural evolution (or by the creation).

“The master does his job and then stops. He understands that the universe is forever out of control nad that trying to dominate things goes against the current of the Tao.”
Like the previous advice.
THE HUMAN NATURE IS A PART OF THE LIVING NATURE, so the natural human functioning (the answering of needs) can be seen as a part of the Tao, i.e. as a part of the natural world.
“Weapons are tools of violence, all decent men detest them. …”
See the advice number three about the value of harmony and the strenght lost in conflicts.
Violence breaks things destroying health and prosperity, and should be avoided almost at all costs. (-> Count the costs! There is also healthy curing kind of aggression in order to avoid more breaking of valuable things.)

“Center your country in the Tao and evil will have no power. Not that it isn’t there, but you will be able to step out of its way.”
Do things in healthy ways, reach for the healthy natural society (and healthy natural society agreement) and a healthy natural world.
Make safety precautions against the evil, so you will be able to step out of its way.
Act according to how things are, follow thw forces of nature, of naturality, for example natural motivational factors. Those are all for good and those are the ground for all biological functioning. (The healthy world repairing the world toward compkete health.)

“Think of the small as large and few as many. Confront the difficult while it is still easy…”
Be able to GENERALIZE from one to many. Thinking like that is easiest in ways which take into account our instinct nature: via emohaty, feelings and atmospheres.
