Re: Question: Robotic truth
In the case of multigroup collaboration, where each group in made by smaller groups that collaborate in a lesser degree than in each group internally, the survival program to ascertain what is truth or not would be as follows: (IMHO). Any comunication has two main components of truth: The first is about the truth value of this comunication for the knowledge of reality the phisical medium or knowledge of the world. The other component is a instinctive evaluation about in which way this communication modifies the position of each actor in the group: in terms of power, righteousness, respect, status, This also depends on the way in which this comunication modifies the status of our core groups from which we take part formally or informally in the whole society. I name this element social capital. The truth of something, as perceived in the heart take both components. A social robot would take into account both too. It is not very difficult to know that , by evolutionary reasons, without a favourable value in the second evaluation, the first truth can not be accepted Apparently both evaluations are very different. The first is the factual or objective. The second is the subjective or moral, that may be egoistic or altruistic. It can be said that the second depends on interests, values, ascriptions etc, while the first is not. but the first is subject to values too, and the second depends on the factual knowledge. Except the innate knowdledge and/or the one observed with the own eyes (stones tend to fall). to hold something as objective is a matter of having very strong values and beliefs. For example, because I strongly believe in certain institutions and methods, I accept as factual that there are something called electrons. If I have other beliefs or values, I would not accept that as a fact. factual knowledge is like any knowledge,* it has to be positive in the second sense* before being accepted as truth. That is, every objective accepted knowledge implies an acceptation ny the side of the subjective filters. In the other side if I demonstrate by game theorethical reasoning or whatever that something , although bad for you in the short term, is good for the whole society,and thus good for you and for your group in the long term then this something becomes factual. because this truth pass the two filters (objective and subjective) filter that you have to accept something as truth.. The fact is that the verification of what values and beliefs are good for you have been verified by evolution countless times.

It seems that the mind is computation, but the phisical substrate, which is ultimately mathematthic reflect this computation as well as the mind, but matter as a product of the mind can *not be *the causation of the mind.

Re: Question: Robotic truth
Your robot do not have time to know the true truth. He would not speculate on the nature of his programmer, or why he is here. At least until the problems of survival are solved by means of a stable collaboration. Even so, he never could have the opportunity to know the programmer. He don´t know the nature of other robots except that they need the same things. He must choose the truth to know and how deep need to know it to have collaboration. He as to focus on obtaining collaboration. In game experiments, collaboration appear spontaneously when the actors remember the other's actions individually. Le me give my starting assumptions: The first truth algoritm in this context, (in the absence of comunication), if this actor collaborated with me in the past, he is faithful and will collaborate with me in the future. if we confront automata with different programs playing the prisoner dilemma, The outcome of this game was discovered by Axelrod: the tit-for-that was the simplest sucessful collaborator that was not depredated by others. TFT collaborate with these who collaborate and defect with these that don´t. But in the presence of noise or imperfect information, if a TFT don´t collaborate for whatever reason one single time, he is abandoned by the rest. For this reason a forgetting TFT that don't take into account random non collaboration becomes more sucessful. With time, if ia form of variation and selection is incorporated in the game, more sophisticated evaluations of others appear. Still the truths to be know for the actor are the relevant for his survival: that is the truths about either if their fellow actors will collaborate or not. My question is , *in presence of communication,* where the actors can lie or tell the truth, how the game is modified and how the algoritms that obtain data for action change?. Because this is a form of guided question, I will not hide my cards and I will say my conclussions: Once some actor (call it robot) collaborates with my robot I would mark it as faitful. therefore I will believe in what it says. If I detect that what He says is false, I will mark this event as an act of non collaboration. Therefore this will influence my next collaboration with him. he will know it, so therefore he will not lie my robot next time if not for a good reason, or , else, he will loose the valuable collaboration of my robot. But in situations of scarcity, when collaboration is more necessary, it is the moment where non collaboration may be egoistically profitable, he would say for example that there is a piece somewhere, that he will take care of my pieces, so may steal them. I can returm and revenge, producing in it a damage such that further actions of this type would be non profitable for him. The dynamic of retaliation is know, it deter future offenses in the middle term, but at the short term the cost will be that, after the revenge, both will be in a situation much worse than at the beginning. What can my robot and the many robots that usually collaborate to avoid such lies, revenges, misunderstandings etc?. To aleviate the cost of punishing individually non collaborators, the best way is to collaborate to punish them. But they must offense a common good. The common good may be material, but also can be a rule. The rules would be of course, the rules of collaboration: In what situations it is mandatory to help a member. All of these rules of the group are to be admitted as unquestionable truths by all members. Then, the problem becomes how to be a member . That delimitation of membership is very important, because every new member will receive the benefits of our robot, and must be willing to incur in the cost of helping others with as low cost of punishment as possible. Membership in a group works like a assurance company. A robot could not enter the group when he need a repair to leave when he has received the benefit. This would destroy the group collaboration. membership must be for a long time, enough to reciprocate many times. To avoid deception after benefited, an initial investment in the group is necessary. For example some pieces. Or a sacrifice (give one of his hands to the list of group pieces) until something else for the group has been done. The rules of group membership are added to the list of truths to be defended and enforced. We have a long list of rules, that every robot member must know and accept (and refresh). Also it is necessary a sort of periodic show of commitment where the group members refrest their memories about the rules, recognize themseves and show the willingness to defend the rules and castigate the offenders. This is a synchronization not only of knowledge, but also on intentions. A sort of visual rites are necessary, where some clues, perhaps a red light in top of each robot, goberned by a well know ROM program that verifies the list of truths of the group. It can be substituted by a a remote communication protocol , but

Re: Question: Robotic truth
The expression Socila construction of reality is an expression that hold any kind or relativism. This is nor that. This is a algorithmical study founded in game theory, and resource optimization with a narrow set of possibilities and a harwired nature of any social being (the ROM element). Social construction of reality theories assumes that there is a deeper reality hidden by a evil society. This is a gnostic belief. There is no deeper reality. and the reality neither the society is evil per se. Yes, politics and advertising make use of this, like any of us in any activity. we do it by instinct and by experience, but not fbased on a well founded theory. This is so because we have a a innate ability for manipulation and an innate resistance to manipulation. This must be part of a social cooperator subsumed in a process of variation and selection. The knowledge of this limitation in our knowledge and the flawed nature of our communications have moral, epistemological and in general philosophical implications. 2013/1/6 meekerdb meeke...@verizon.net On 1/6/2013 12:42 PM, Alberto G.
