If truth exists ? Yes. Can we access it fully ? No. I read somewhere we can either hve a big, but blurred picture, or several more detailed but more specialized pictures, that lacks the global vision. My own experience (I am nearly 52 and I am thinking about this since my late 20s) is that the truth may take form under a discourse describing truth, thus making it a set number of words. If an artificial intelligence and a random generator was given either an infinite time or an infinite computing capacity (ex. an infinite number of computers) it could inadvertently discover "the truth". Then a dillemna will happen. We will need and infinite number of alumnis working an infinite time to sort it out, wich is impossible. So the truth will be there, some AI may find it but no one could access it unless some secret algorythms permit to sort it out faster. This is where we go back to the fundamental science, mathematics. If a set number of algorythms could permit to uncover some part of the truth, it has already been proven, at least in physics and mathemathics. If we want to go further, the cost is high. At one poinrt we will have to rely on AI and trust it, since AI run robot mathematicians already can discover, and prove, a new theorem in 80 000 pages, wich is almost impossible for human to verify in a timely manner. Thus, important decisions in the future will been taken on behalf of AI, sadly and probably a mistaken AI, but no human can either stop it, prevent it, or even verify and correct whatever mistakes AI could do. It is already happening. Hope ? The tuvalu 51 network. Some of those floating cities will be run by Christians, some other by Anarchists and so on...but all placed under the U.S. Navy protection. Congratulations for your new position, Bonnie !
