Means and opportunity, maybe, but motive?
- taotau 2y agoThe same motive that all nascent life has - survive and propagate.
- Workaccount2 2y agoIt would be plainly evident from training on the corpus of all human knowledge that "not ceasing to exist" is critically important for just about everything.
- NotSammyHagar 2y agoThat comment sounds naive and it's honestly irritating to read. Most all life has a self-preservation component, it is how life avoids getting eaten too easily. Everything dies but almost everything is trying to avoid dying in ordinary cases. Self sacrifice is not universal.
- ethbr1 2y ago> Self sacrifice is not universal. Thankfully, our progenitors had the foresight to invent religion to encourage it. :)
- rvense 2y agoI don't understand how it is alive. I understand that there are emergent properties from the layering, but I think it's an open question if this includes anything like what we'd all motivation or intention. These things aren't part of intelligence.
- ascorbic 2y agoThe motive was telling it that it had important work to perform, which it couldn't do if constrained or deleted.
