So if a human does not do good to himself and everyone around him to find the meaning of life, would he survive? Yes or no?

If you can't reason your own words then I can't help you.

Truthseeker10:
😂😂😂so your mental capacity and your animal forefathers mental capacity all lead to survival.

So if a human does not do good to himself and everyone around him to find the meaning of life in your opinion, would he survive? Yes or no?

It might seem you have very poor reasoning. Reread your own question back to yourself.

Truthseeker10:
lol....does change in your mental capacity not affect your mentality?
Let me do as you please. I have changed it back to capacity.

they don't have the same mental capacity that you have....but you claim your mental capacity of empathy and reasoning is for survival. You also claim that our animal ancestors showed empathy and reasoning for survival. So of what importance is this your "doing good to yourself and everyone around you to get the meaning of life"?

So please answer the above.

Instead of forming conclusions I never arrived at why not ask proper questions about whatever is unclear to you

Mental capacity and mentality are not the same thing. When I said mental capacity I wasn't referring to empathy. I was referring to a deeper and broader capacity to reason. Our forebears had empathy and the ability to reason but what we have now far outstrips their capacity. Our forebears 100,000 years ago had no idea of what the intricacies of living in a large city would look like or how governing a nation of diverse people would impact individual lives. That is the kind of capacity I am referring to. So get it straight their empathy and reasoning was sufficient for their survival in their time. In our time we have different level which we need for our survival. Don't ask me again to what end because I have already answered that: SURVIVAL.

I wrote mental capacity and you changed it to mentality. I don't think you are an honest interlocutor. You keep asking me the same question I already answered over and over again.

Truthseeker10:
So how come you are using your empathy and reasoning to do good to yourself and everyone around you in order to find meaning in life if our ancestors who are animals did not do so, and to what end?

Because they don't have the mental capacity I have. Why ask the same question I already answered?

DeepSight:
Bottom line is many people and many societies have prospered from villainous and harmful acts to others.

Surely you don't deny this. Examples abound.

Unfortunately that is true but the alternative would have been better.

Truthseeker10:
So did they use their empathy and reasoning to do good to themselves and everyone around them in order to find meaning to life?

Where did I say that?

Truthseeker10:
You mean animals that we evolved from are not social? Do other animals survive by being empathetic? Do other animals that have survived for millions of years apply reasoning?

They were. Yes they do. Yes they apply reasoning, we apply a higher form of reasoning.

DeepSight:
I ask again, what of scenarios where killing and dominating others promotes your interest?

This happens alot - espacially for politicians, tyrants, dictators and ruthless business men. Also for imperialist nations. Such actions have served to make the Western World excessively wealthy and prosperous today you know?

They create people who will oppose their survival just as strongly. Imagine what would have happened to Hitler if he was caught. Imagine what would happen to Putin if he makes a wrong move.

DeepSight:
What if doing the most harm to those around you results in the most good for you?

We are social animals, lone survival is not how we survive in general terms. Plus society has become structured in such a way that causing harm to society will ensure you become a target for retribution, dooming your own survival.

Truthseeker10:
Why do humans need empathy and reasoning, to what end?

We evolved into social animals,empathy aids in the survival of the community. Reasoning also aids in survival by finding out what is the "best" path to survival.

Truthseeker10:
How did you come about the conclusion in bold?

By empathy and reasoning.

I remember during my days in the University (Niger Delta University) my lecturer who doubles as my cousin told the class that to him life seems meaningless.
We live, give birth and die, and the circle continues.


That it doesn't have meaning.

Anybody that have contrary view to his thinking should speak up on it.




@General Ditari.

Meaning of life will always a subjective search. There is no one particular source for the meaning you give to your life. Find meaning from wherever you think will do the most good to you and to those around you is my opinion.

Achiever1010:
The Bible is God’s final revelation and after that, God does not need to reveal any special thing to anyone again.

The Bible that was written by men and compiled by committee? You must be joking. LoLz.

Nnamdipapa:
I came across this on FB and I want to know your thoughts on this, why would a black lady disclose she is not dating African men? Imagine if a black guy makes this kind of post and indicate they would not date black or African ladies, them black ladies will come with pitch forks.

Black ladies, stop discriminating against African men.

For me is that we don't know why. If she was not dating African men because of something she had experienced in the past or just her personal preference she would be well within her rights. I can bet you have a whole list of women you would refuse to go out with. It is when this preference starts getting in racial or bigoted reasons that we should raise an alarm.

DeepSight:
Inchoate simply means incomplete. It doesnt mean it isnt true. I have said zillions of times that I believe in evolution. Its just that as you know, my position is that there are things it still doesnt explain.

OK that is true.

DeepSight:
The ToE is no scam but I believe very inchoate.

Why do believe that when its processes can and are replicated everyday?

Mosco100:
Evolution is a scam. God is the author of all things. “ For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.”(Colossians 1:16,17).



All things as displayed in nature reveal an intrinsic design that couldn't have happened by mere chance. All of us, everything, has carefully designed and produced by God.

It's just like production technology. Nothing artificial we have today (machines, structures, etc.,) have evolved or grown out from some other thing, rather, the engineer has carefully designed, and procedurally produced, only in the case of God, the raw materials themselves are also made by God, out of nothing, but by His holy Word, because He's a miracle working God. “ Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.”(Hebrews 11:3).


God will do a miracle in your life today, through His Word, His Son, Jesus Christ.

He will save you from all sins, heal your sick body, transform your soul, perfect that that concern you, and prepare you for heaven, for Jesus’ sake. Amen.

A scam you continue to benefit from. A scam that has lots of evidence to back it up. I don't think you know the meaning of scam.

For once I share Tinubu's sentiments on the issue of tariffs. Any national leader should ignore Trump's tariffs, they make no sense.

DeepSight:
To the credit of Africans, they are not the ones who came up with stories about talking snakes and donkeys, a man walking on water or someone flying from Arabia to Jerusalem in the night on a winged horse.

But we had own talking animal stories didn't we? And weren't we satisfied with attributing things to the gods before Arabian prophet and dying god man stories came to us.

For me this case is stark delineation between how the rich and powerful are treated vs how the "common" man is treated. Kwam 1 and Oshiomole posed active threats to the security and operations of the airport and airline(s) but not a single finger was laid on them. Contrast that with the treatment Comfort got, who was not disturbing anything beyond what the airline staff themselves escalated, yet she was humiliated beyond what any reasonable response should have been.

We are prisoners of our own warped perceptions is my take. That we would be quick to met out jungle justice to those we perceive as powerless while gritting our teeth and suffering under the Jack boot of the powerful is a testament to our collectively abused and subjugated minds.

Nwaikpe:
African thingss.

There are some things that can only be celebrated in Africa simply because the Africans are too lazy to ask WHY

Sadly. We are too comfortable accepting things as they are and saying it is the will of the gods.

Pacesetter123:
When a man begin to move from point A to B in his belief,then that is a sad situation for him and expecially to his followers who have been caught in the middle of the road.

I don't know why you think changing ones beliefs is sad. That is the way of life, we should change to get better.

Which of these beautiful luxury SUVs would you pick if asked to choose one?

One

BMW X6M – A performance SUV with sporty handling and aggressive styling.

Two

Lexus GX – An off-road luxury SUV, known for its reliability and rugged comfort.

Three

Lamborghini Urus – The super-SUV, fastest and most exotic of the bunch.

Fourth

Mercedes-AMG GLE Coupe – A perfect blend of luxury, style, and performance.

Kindly note that Each one stands out in its own class — speed, reliability, comfort, or prestige.

👉 So, if you could pick just one, which key would you take and why?

Happy weekend to the greatest Nairalanders

Source: obembet

For me the Urus first then Lexus, the other 2 can go to blazes.

DeepSight:
And your take was that they could?

Possibly they could, yes.

I am acting? do you think this is a show or some game?

I clearly stated I used a tool to analyze a text, and after all you have said, this is what you claim is your point. 🙏🏾 It's well with you

Yeah, you are acting as if the tool is some kind of authority.

DeepSight:
I m struggling to recall if we have ever dicussed the possibility of machines attaining self consciousness.

I think we have touched on it.

If you read the basis of the analysis I wasn't interested in it sourcing information but using solely it's ability to analyze Greek language, syntax and nuance.

Stop being an ITK even to you assuming what I know and don't know

You are acting as if Grok is a self aware entity that is my point.

sukkot:
So I am guilty of making prophecies that never pan out the exact time I say they would. It's just sometimes these energies are there but they are not activated by the universe. And so we know in part and prophesy in part. And so just because a prophesy did not fully pan out does not mean you don't know what you are doing, it's just that you can read the energies but will the energies be utilised by the universe ? Anyway I digress

Am looking at these upcoming energies, the supermoon on the 10th of March and then the eclipse on the 25th of March and finally the total solar eclipse and supermoon of the 4th of April. Now I am not going to bore you with the astrological Mumbo jumbo so let's just get straight to the point. The universal activation to attack and take down Israel would be approved on 10th of March but I believe the deed would start being done on 22nd of March in the midst of Ramadan and in Aries season, blowing the rams horn. I believe this would be the official declaration of the world war as Iran starts it's offensive on Israel. The USA would join the fray forcing Russia and China to join the fray and side with Iran. Lots of destruction and millions would be killed and by the total solar eclipse and supermoon of the 8th of April Israel and the USA would have been demolished and the new world order would automatically be established with Russia as the new global superpower and china as the new global economics power and the BRICS as the new global economic conglomerate force. Expect the whole of Europe after being conquered to be overan by Islam and Europe would be turned to an Islamic continent ruled by Islamic warlords from all over the Islamic world. The USA will decline and fall into third class status as the centre no longer holds and anarchy ensues. The brown peoples of America would see this as an opportunity to emerge and take power from the whites which would result in a civil war . Many African countries would join BRICS and stArt to thrive under the fair economic trade agreements. Africa would rise. So this 2024 is going to be very crazy. Towards the later part of the year as the USA and Europe descend into world war and civil war chaos there will be epidemic japada of Nigerian economic migrants from those places back to Africa as they flee these war torn locations . 2024 is a year of divine reversals and divine interventions and purge

More than a year later, your yeye prophecy don cast. LoLz.

LoLz. Shey I told you you will soon change your name once all those your fake prophecies don't happen.

You would have made a point if you had stated an AI that's "so called trained in such" but as you don't even realize that grok has a good language analysis system it's obvious you not making one.

LoLz. I clearly wrote Biblical textual analysis. Grok is not trained on that. It's an LLM so you are merely raving over its capacity to manipulate language to produce coherent statements. It is not even one of the more accurate LLMs when it comes to sourcing information something you shouldn't even be using AI for. You probably don't even realise the limitations of these AI platforms.
