There are rules in art. Most fields have rules but innovation or creativity goes beyond those rules. Or rather is not constrained by the structure or politics.

Artificial Intelligence learns very quickly compared to humans. Compare how many years it takes to be a chess grandmaster with how long it took a program to consistently win. It is amusing if I visualise Cynique schooling all the defeated humans on how to beat "The Machine" (said with a Morpheus inflection) Being excluded from the system does confer benefits other than those pesky bullets. There is a commentary on The Matrix movie by Cornell West and Ken Wilber. It is both philosophical and spiritual.

You sound like Morpheus when he was training Neo in the Matrix It's only a sophomore, wait until it graduates. Graphic designers are already complaining about AI. I am not certain when AI was implemented for graphic design but it is less than 5 years. It will get better the same way predictive text got better. Which is AI on your phone. Quite a few Astrologers think it will be beneficial for Astrology. I don't think the language of Astrology is mappable. Since often an Astrologer can't explain why they choose one meaning over another. It may be that entering text online is feeding AI. In which case the only fields outside of it's domain aren't strictly rule based.

Maybe being in the moment trumps a journal it's the opposite of a cold reading where you start talking and then ask questions.

Thank you it's a big compliment but if the blog takes too much time , a book is out of the question

Yes we had different perspectives but after looking up the definitions of proof evidence and semantics I see your point. So thank you for both your persistence and patience.

So I hadn't seen this until now. No I had a Wordpress page on Astrology. I think may have posted my divination bio here. I have a FB page called Astrological Theory. But Blogs require consistent and continual content.

Here is one of the exchanges how would you describe me based on m questions As a language model, I do not have the ability to perceive or understand the physical world and I do not have information about you other than the questions you have asked me. Therefore, I am not able to provide a description of you based on your questions. However, based on your questions, I can infer that you are curious, searching for knowledge and have an interest in a wide range of topics.

Will post later

I had a Tarot reader say the same thing. In Tarot the 9 of cups (hearts) is one of the most beneficial pip cards. However there are stronger beneficial Trump cards. You seem to remember quite a bit from 60 years ago. You didn't need to know the standard definition of the cards to know what the mean. I had a friend that wanted me to teach them Tarot. I said don't read the book. I want you to come up with your own meanings of the cards. One day I saw her with the book. She didn't trust her meanings nor my method. So I ended the lessons. I am going out in a limb with my next statement. You knew on some level that your readings were correct. Otherwise you are consciously being deceptive. Which I don't believe was the case. Were you're readings ever wrong? As an aside I don't think you can properly read Tarot or utilise any divination system without intuition. Since the cards have more than one meaning and there isn't a rational way to pick one over the other.

I am not arguing semantics which is why I posted the definitions. For me it is not the same to say. You can have evidence. It can be evident You can have proof It can be proven. It proves the point https://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/definition/english/evidence_1 [uncountable] the information that is used in court to try to prove something. to prove or show something; to be evidence of something So you are correct that evidence can be used interchangeably based on the definitions. However one definition of evidence is not the same as proof. Our point of difference is that definitions is a subset of semantics. Semantics is the meaning of words and phrases. A word does have a different definition versus usage in a phtase I was going to say sentence but it is not the same as a phrase. I thought you .were wrong, I should have known better. However I have learnt something today.

Following

Can anyone explain how evidence is a proof unless it is self evident. In which case it is already a proof. A geometric proof involves writing reasoned, logical explanations that use definitions, axioms, postulates, and previously proved theorems to arrive at a conclusion about a geometric statement. A good proof has an argument that is clearly developed with each step supported by: Theorems: statements that can be proved to be true Postulates: statements that are assumed to be true without proof (for example, an angle has only one bisector) Axioms: self-evident truths or the basic facts that are accepted without any proof (for example, a straight line can be drawn between any two points) Proofs are commonly written in two columns, where the statements are listed in one column and the reasons for each statement's truth are listed in another column.

Presentation. You can present evidence but it is not proof unless it is given some thought. And I would say that thinking is a verb not a noun. Being shown evidence is passive for the receiver. The receiver has to do actively think about it before it is accepted. For example you can present evidence to Pioneer, but unless he accepts it as valid it is not proof of your argument. However you have your own definition of proof. And no amount of evidence even standard definitions of the word from my two favourite dictionaries proves my assertion. @Cynique

Here's the proof , and hopefully it will be proof for you, and prove my argument. proof 1 of 3 noun ˈprüf Synonyms of proof 1 a : the cogency of evidence that compels acceptance by the mind of a truth or a fact b : the process or an instance of establishing the validity of a statement especially by derivation from other statements in accordance with principles of reasoning 2 obsolete : EXPERIENCE 3 : something that induces certainty or establishes validity 4 archaic : the quality or state of having been tested or tried especially : unyielding hardness 5 : evidence operating to determine the finding or judgment of a tribunal 6 a pluralproofs or proof : a copy (as of typeset text) made for examination or correction b : a test impression of an engraving, etching, or lithograph c : a coin that is struck from a highly polished die on a polished planchet, is not intended for circulation, and sometimes differs in metallic content from coins of identical design struck for circulation d : a test photographic print made from a negative 7 : a test applied to articles or substances to determine whether they are of standard or satisfactory quality 8 a : the minimum alcoholic strength of proof spirit b : strength with reference to the standard for proof spirit specifically : alcoholic strength indicated by a number that is twice the percent by volume of alcohol present whiskey of 90 proof is 45 percent alcohol proof 2 of 3 adjective 1 : able to resist or repel boots that were … proof against cold and wet—Robertson Davies —often used in combination windproof 2 : used in proving or testing or as a standard of comparison 3 : of standard strength or quality or alcoholic content proof 3 of 3 verb proofed; proofing; proofs transitive verb 1 a : to make or take a proof or test of b : PROOFREAD 2 : to give a resistant quality to 3 : to activate (yeast) by mixing with water and sometimes sugar or milk proofer noun

Did the evidence provide proof @Cynique

Proof is also a verb and adjective Oxford English Dictionary https://www.oed.com/oed2/00190047 B. Signification. I. From prove v. in the sense of making good, or showing to be true. 1. a. That which makes good or proves a statement; evidence sufficient (or contributing) to establish a fact or produce belief in the certainty of something. †to make proof: to have weight as evidence (obs.). b. Law. (generally) Evidence such as determines the judgement of a tribunal. Also spec. 2. The action, process, or fact of proving, or establishing the truth of, a statement; the action of evidence in convincing the mind; demonstration. II. From prove v. in the sense of trying or testing. 4. a. The action or an act of testing or making trial of anything, or the condition of being tried; test, trial, experiment; examination, probation; assay. Often in phrases to bring, put, set, etc. (something) in, on, to (the, †a) proof. Merriam-Webster's Dictionary https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/proof proof 2 of 3 adjective 1 : able to resist or repel boots that were … proof against cold and wet—Robertson Davies —often used in combination windproof 2 : used in proving or testing or as a standard of comparison 3 : of standard strength or quality or alcoholic content b.

That which is produced as a test; a means or instrument for testing. b. Photogr. A first or trial print taken from a plate; also used as equivalent to print

I agree that was the point I was trying to make. The smoking Gun is evidence(noun), the proof is a process (verb).

A friend told me Mah Jonng has a spiritual dimension. Playing cards can be used for fortune telling. In addition there is a divination system that use playing cards. Which I happened to be exposed to at the same time I was learning Tarot.

I don't believe innocence I'd ever mentioned. It's either guilty or not guilty. It would be difficult to determine innocence since motivation is not easily ascertained

The verdict proves the evidence, or not. Without context meaning is elusive. When a topic is discussed I try to think about it in more than one context, I also like etymology and arguing semantics.

In a case you provide evidence and then the prosecutor tries to use the evidence as a proof of a crime. Whereas the defense tries to disprove it. Evidence is the body of material presented, proof is the verdict.

I prefer games that have a random component or where luck comes into play as well as skill. So the few times I have been to a Casino I prefer Roulette. Since the croupier skills don't tilt the game in the house's favor.

I was thinking along those same lines this morning. The Vedas touch upon ever area of life. What is fascinating is that certain yoga asanas (poses) have beneficial effects on the body or mind. In addition asanas at held for different lengths of time. So yoga was divinely inspired or downloaded from the aether.

Sorry never doubted it. Just had a little pronoun problem.
