[Fis] Chuan's reply14 - THE FRONTIERS OF INTELLIGENCE SCIENCE: for the new month, new step

[赵川]

Dear Joseph, Pedro, Prof. Zhong and dear All Leaguers, 

 

         From the day when our FIS chair Prof. Pedro put the author preface of the new book “THE FRONTIERS OF INTELLIGENCE SCIENCE”, and asked me chair this discussion session as the same name, a month past. It is interesting that Frontier of Intelligence Science are FIS the same! In this month we have exchanged 54 mails, add this one I am writing. I think this is a great step of FIS & FIS. Our discussion is precious. We went into the heart of questions; we are talk about same inner question from different disciplinary, from different place worldwide. 

         Here a star, and there a star, we discover each other, enjoy or criticize each other. Our share of night to bear together, and Afterwards - Day!

         Dance of FIS and FIS are beautiful like the dance of polar lights. We wonderers on the sea, dear Staley, now I feel Internet is not heaven or hill, it is the homeland of our mind live in. 

         As a summary of our FIS’s FIS discussion session, I should first translate two phases from my reading of Chinese versions, then list some items we can go on discussion this month. 

1.         How weight the burden/goal of IS should be? Jacques Derrida (1930 – 2004) , as an philosophy and aesthetician he felt it deep and described like such a fact: “There is a kind of hard thought has not be emphasized yet, on account of ” Because of a large number of contemplation can’t be felt, we must shoulder the whole weight of the questions we put out. Such questions, I try to call them as history. With such help, we can then connect difference with language.”  

2.         Hans-Geory Gadamer (1900-2002) pointed:”Now China can’t exist in the world without mathematic, physics and chemistry these sciences initiate in Greece. But this bearing capacity of this root is withering today. Science should to look for nourishment from other sources, especial from far East. ” yes, dear Rafael, far east and far west, they are important for each other. They should be pabulum and support each other. Great hundred-year-old philosopher showed us the deep relation between far east and west pabulum. This is wisdom. Dear Dai the relation of intelligence and wisdom are complex, Gadamer’s view is an example of high intelligence and wisdom (Joseph: they also can be considered as a form of intelligence.). Though it is Common Sense (the concept Smith mentioned). 

3.         Dear leaguers in fact while we prepare this session, in February, just Chinese Spring Festival, with Pedro and Joseph, we even prepared 11 questions. I will check and sort them, and add the questions emerged in this month together and put out in our go on discussion. 

4.         Dear Joseph’s mails are precious and important. Yes, Structure, our sword of thought. “As tragic events repeatedly show, their origin is often not the lack of information in the simple sense, but the lack of structures (or structurations) in people capable of implementing it. These structures or capacities are also information in the complex sense, of course, but they also can be considered as a form of intelligence. I believe more attention should be paid explicitly to such structures to enable people to recognize and use them against the inevitable forces opposing that (keeping to a schedule, not 'frightening' people, etc.) Calling responsible behavior intelligent might facilitate the exercise of it.”. I even translate to Chinese to help me solidify and grasp the meanings. Yes, inevitable force opposing that should/always be very strong. And such resistance is the character of such approach to such structures. No pain no gain. As Buddha’s words mentioned: “it is impossible to escape suffering, unless one reaches.”. How wonderful the structure/fruit is and how difficult the process is. We should prepare to face to practice. Our discussion session is lucky we have such precious guide form him, Pedro, prof. Zhong and so on, the wisdom men.

 

More later. 

Thanks for all FISers! 

Let go to the new age, and the new month of our Frontiers of Intelligence Science session. 

 

         Best regard and best wishes,

Chuan
