Invoke AI & Computational Wisdom

  1. Multi-Objective Optimization: In neural networks, especially deep learning architectures like those championed by Geoffrey Hinton, multi-objective optimization involves optimizing several loss functions simultaneously. Analogously, each of your dimensions—virtue, psychology, ethics—can be considered as a 'loss function' to minimize or optimize. You could develop an algorithmic approach that finds a balance among these competing objectives, perhaps even employing Pareto optimization techniques.
  2. Ensemble Methods: Yoshua Bengio’s work on ensemble methods teaches us that a collective of models can make a more balanced and nuanced decision than a single model. You might treat each virtue or psychological theory as an individual 'model' in an ensemble, working in concert to produce a more holistic ethical or decision-making framework.
  3. Dimensionality Reduction: Techniques like Principal Component Analysis (PCA) are used in machine learning to reduce the complexity of the data space. This could inspire you to identify the 'principal components' or key dimensions in your multi-dimensional moral and psychological space.
  4. Reinforcement Learning: Algorithms learn through a system of rewards and punishments. In your framework, the scalar values could act as rewards guiding the 'agent' (you or the individual employing this framework) towards actions aligned with your key virtues and theories.
  5. Generative Models: Consider the potential for generative models like GANs to simulate the outcomes of various ethical or virtuous actions, predicting the likely success or alignment with your core principles.

Socratic Self-Dialogue

  1. Questioning Virtue:
    • Q: How do I prioritize Faith over Hope in a certain dilemma?
    • A: Given that Faith serves as a foundation, it might provide the underlying structure for Hope.
  2. Exploring Psychological Theories:
    • Q: How does Freud's id, ego, and superego interact with the virtue of Charity?
    • A: The id might push for impulsive giving, the superego for moral or altruistic giving, and the ego could help find a balance.
  3. Juxtaposing Ethical Paradigms:
    • Q: How do Christian Ethics align or conflict with Socratic Questioning?
    • A: Both seek the truth but may differ on the sources of that truth—revelation versus dialogue.
  4. Emotional Layers:
    • Q: How does my current emotional state of happiness influence my decision-making?
    • A: Happiness might act as a bias, skewing decisions towards optimistic outcomes.
  5. Temporal Reflections:
    • Q: How have my perspectives evolved over time, and how does that influence my current stance?
    • A: Past experiences have enriched my understanding, offering a tapestry of wisdom to draw from.
  6. Challenging Orthodoxies:
    • Q: What happens if my virtues conflict with popular societal norms?
    • A: This is where ethical nuance and individual integrity come into play. It may require courageous dissent or thoughtful engagement with society.

Through these two lenses—AI & Computational Wisdom and Socratic Self-Dialogue—you not only enrich the texture of your multidimensional framework but also lend it both an analytical and reflective balance. Would you like to dive deeper into any of these aspects?
