Thu Mar 17 13:48:17 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> this is the fundamental problem of ethics, that you can't have an intelligent justification of will, merely a willful justification of intelligence.
Thu Mar 17 13:47:53 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> will may give restrictions of domain upon which an intelligence function may be constructed so it's coherent, but this then doesn't provide a method to justify the will upon which the whole construction is based.

Thu Mar 17 13:46:44 UTC 2016 <mircea_popescu> this underscores the principal point about intelligence, which is to say that it is an ex post facto construction outside the object, and consequently it can not either be objective, or objectively measured.
