In our lives, we do not consider the importance of philosophy any more than scientific studies and discoveries. One of the common criticisms of philosophy is that it is not practical, meaning that the study of philosophy does not require students to learn anything useful. Moreover, philosophy differs from science because it includes the study of more than what is empirical, or physically observable. However, there are areas in which philosophy can immediately be practical. Philosophy is the process of understanding, a study to know reality, knowledge, and existence. Philosophy is not simply a theory of something. Every person does not have his or her own “Philosophy”. Philosophy is an activity of thought. Philosophy is not a “Way of Life” but…show more content…
How is AI related to philosophy? AI is required to learn how to think, which is what philosophy is about. AI uses computers to solve problems that call for human reasoning. AI is based on several scientific and philosophical presuppositions. The outstanding feature of AI is the ability to learn and educate itself from its experience without being further programmed. This ability is called “Experiential Learning” possessed by Aristotle in his book, Nicomachean Ethics. Experiential learning is the process of learning through experience. Likewise, the ability of experiential learning is applied to AI, meaning that it has its own reasoning ability created through branches of philosophy such as metaphysics, knowledge theory, and logic. Experiential learning in AI is fairly simple. Whenever the computer performs a task and ends with a success, the value of this performance might rise. On the other hand, ending up a task with a failure, the value of the performance may drop. These variable values appear for the computer’s memory, which allows the AI to make better choice in the future in similar…show more content…
It would be skeptical if an employer hired an employee with lack of skills like Person B. Having acquired a good logical reasoning ability, the following skills are acquired as well: Argument skills, communication skills, information management, design and planning skills, research and investigation skills, and management and administration skills. The skills listed are essential for a person to become a better manager, consumer, writer, reader, voter, leader, father or mother, and brother or sister. Any moment in life, where one has to make a decision about something, that decision will depend on the reasoning ability. As with the logical reasoning ability being vital in our everyday life, Critical Thinking takes place in the center of philosophy. Defined by Francis Bacon (1605), Critical Thinking is to desire seek, patience to doubt, fondness to meditate, slowness to assert, readiness to consider, carefulness to dispose and set in order; and hatred for every kind of imposture. Simply, Critical Thinking is the ability to analyze the way you think and present evidence for one’s ideas, rather than accepting one’s personal reasoning as sufficient proof. Critical Thinking is being crucial for future development of the world, in terms of fourth industrial revolution, including artificial
