@rosborne979,
Random words that sound meaningful are meaningful even if produced randomly. There is more meaning behind the words than just the definition of the words. The words could not exist without the hardware running the algorithm solving the problem of “how can I generate words”. And then, that same hardware solves the next problem of how can I share that newly generated information with Brian to prove a point.
If you would not have told me that a computer generated the phrase I would have assumed a person did. The phrase was philosophical so I would have assumed the person was a philosopher. (If the phrase would have been E equals M C squared, I would have assumed it was Einstein).
Instead I found out a much more sophisticated and technically savvy (intelligent) person produced the phrase by creating a machine, programmed it with simple artificial intelligence (its simple because it can’t recognize the value of the information it is creating) to create new information, turn it into print so we can read and discuss it.
You left out the most important part of the message, and that is:
1. The message reveals the intelligence and characteristics of the person that created the machine, that created the words in a phrase and printed it.
2. The message reveals the intelligence and characteristics of the person sharing the message from the machine (rosborne979) with me while he is trying to make a point.
The message reveals these characteristics about Rosborne to me:
1. He tries to present bits of information to make a point without putting the information into the context of all other information that is related to it. (Which according to quantum mechanics is all the information in the universe.)
2. When I put the information into context (and I use all the information in the whole universe and then try to sort out what is relevant to the discussion for instance I left out the surface temp of our computer screens),sometimes Rosborne feels disdain because the broader context changes his initial point he was trying to make.
I am only putting back in the original information (information someone chose to exclude)back into the topic to clarify and bring a greater understanding to the subject matter. (objectivity).
Did you purposely exclude the related but important information from the discussion that I reinserted for clarity?
