  1. Well, naturally, that's why we have laws. The decision made by the murderer is based on previous data inputs, such as the victim was causing him immense lowering of pride or what so ever. In any case, my algorithm only apply to sane humans, psychos aside. Someone would kill because he thinks it's fun is categorised as "half sane and half insane" We must evaluate it from his viewpoint. Laws cause us to think twice before we do something bad because punishment will follow, along with lowering of pride, and the need to live will overcome this.

    Free will? :) Unless you can control everything that happens around you. That's free will of controlling data input.

  2. Our brain seem fully capable to do that. However, I don't think every thought and sensation is needed to process a decision. The "rules of algorithm" is workings in the subconscious mind. You couldn't the workings and algorithms of a computer game (Say, warcraft), could you? Initially, I'd actually wanted to show that humans are (possibly) logical, as they followed rules when they think. However, I do agree with you on the part of "every sensation and every thought that the subject had ever had" is needed...possibly to do a reverse proof, and "this machine might well tell you that it has more important things to do than predict another sapient machines decision. " I really have too much time on my hands, don't I?

  3. Ah, I'm afraid your idea suffers from one of the most fatal of flaws -- you don't actually have anything. OK, so you do have a vague outline. But to actually make this work, you need to eventually put it into computer code. You'll have to define the terms you use since the computer knows only 1 and 0, and not just define them like a dictionary but in terms a computer can understand. It will have to end up as 1's, 0's, and the NAND operator (or equivalent), no more, no less. Same with the instructions.

     

    Because of the vagueness it is impossible to tell whether any within the set of all possible interpretations of what you have said would actually work. I'd guess that several would work but that you don't know any of them.

     

    Yeah...is there any way to correct this? Possibly transform it into a logical processor? I tried programming myself...but i lack much technical knowledge...Maybe the "if" program might work....

  4. Just keep in mind we'll do our best to try to poke holes in it. But don't worry, if it is bulletproof we won't be able to.

     

     

    Ok, I'll try to skim it down to the basic rules of the algorithm:

     

     

    1. The human decision-making algorithm is based on an input-process-output basis.

     

    2. Input includes present-time data from the nevironment and stored memories. Output is the decision.

     

    3. The algorithm is divided into four parts, the first is primary, following second and third is auxillary, fourth is special.

     

    4. First, survival. This is divided into Need to Live (Maintaining continuity) and Pride (Respect for the ability to live). They are further divided into "Self", "Other", and "Human".

     

    5. Next, material. This part controls the value of each category.

     

    6. The value of self pride is always in a equilibrium. When there is a heightening in self pride, Material will adjust to lower the pride with the same degree. Think of it as a straight line; when there is heightening (someone praises you) a wave is formed. After the peak, the wave will proceed downwards to return to its original line, and vice versa for lowering of pride.

     

    7. Emotional is next. It directs Material to the required categories by singling out the ones that are needed to process a decision.

     

    8. Last is Emotions. Emotions heighten or lower pride based on their categories: Positive (Anger, Joy, Proud), and Negative (Frustation, Grief, Regret). Positive heightens; Negtive lowers.

     

    9. All values are determined in numbers.

     

    Loopholes...I'll try to cover them.

  5. Humans typically brand themselves as illogical and so is their decisions, but I have a theory that could well explain our algorithms, and enable a breakthrough in the creation of human-like computer programmes. However, what I want to know is, can i post a theory paper without statistics, as my theory might prove near impossible to prove?
