RE: The Limits of Scientific Knowledge
I think general human knowledge is constantly increasing, but you are right, we are limited by several factors, including location, education, and life experience. The more I learn in life, the more I realize that I know almost nothing.
I do think this will change over time though as technology constantly gets better and were start enhancing our genetics with computer chips and other robotic parts. With the rise of AI I think we will find a way to tap into a limitless resource
Enhancing our genetics with computer chips? Why? Seems like an ego-trip of not wanting to accept not knowing everything, with limits to being human. The end of humanity begins when we are so desperate to no longer be human.
Why? What a silly question you ask. Think of the human ego for a few seconds and you will know why. Why do wars start? Why do people cheat on their spouses, why do we steal? All of these when broken down are to satisfy our human ego. To be human is to constantly be pursuing more knowledge and power
No this is impossible. The more Intelligence you create the more doors you will open up. The more the external reality will take millions of new shapes. There is no way you will ever be able to compute all that because the more you try the more shapes it will take. You will not win against the creator by trying to figure stuff out using logic.
