  1. Like @iNow has mentioned above, we learn concepts by being exposed to them, via experience, interactions, demonstrations, explanations, etc.
  2. I don't know what "learn the existence of concept" means.
  3. ChatGPT is a regurgitated Internet search. Are there any rules about a financial product advice acquired from Internet search? The same apply to ChatGPT.
  4. Concepts in mind are not visual entities. When you try to visualize a concept, you get its visual representation. Concepts are different from their visual representations.
  5. How do you get this? How come B is in N? How do you get this? What fluid?
  6. Not exactly. The light from the q is hitting all parts of the lens in your eye, but only one spot on your eye retina. Similarly, the light from the w hits all parts of the lens but only one spot on the retina. And the latter spot is not the same as the former.
  7. The dimensions don't match. The unit of pressure is [force]/[length2], volume is [length3], g is [length]/[time2]. Multiply: [force]/[length2]x[length3]x[length]/[time2] = [force]x[length2]/[time2] which is not a force/buoyancy/upthrust. Sorry for that. Fixed.
  8. After encountering several different circles, we neglect features that vary.
  9. So, you have one example of a technology that arguably stabilized, and another one of a technology that has not. This doesn't seem to justify the conclusion, Moreover, I think there are other trajectories in addition to these two.
  10. When you draw a circle on a piece of paper with say a pencil, it also has a specific color, line width, graphite thickness, background color, electric conductivity, temperature, etc. We are capable of ignoring all these. The same way, we are capable of ignoring its size as well, and of focusing on its geometric shape.
  11. This is OT, but where can I see the number of views?
  12. There is a selection of the input, AFAIK. Not on the level of individual items though.
  13. So far, no.
  14. The way these models work, they create their own falsehoods, called "hallucinations."
  15. Programming is easy. To learn programming is easy. Start with any available language. I hear that Python is quite popular among scientists and mathematicians. But it really doesn't matter much. Eventually you learn and use programming languages as needed.
  16. Why? What is wrong with a dictionary definition?
  17. That circle in mind has a size, but it does not have a specific size. Otherwise, can you specify its size?
  18. If the currents are such that the force is not sufficient to hold the superconductor in place (levitating), the superconductor will start falling into the field. This will cause the currents to strengthen ... etc. until the forces balance. -- ?
  19. Perhaps the eddy currents are generated when the superconductor first placed into the field or when the field is turned on. After that they just keep running because of the superconductivity.
  20. But the OP is your proposed reading list, IIUC. Aside from being influenced and being a continuation, did Freud develop / write anything philosophical? Or do you rather consider the psychoanalysis a philosophy?
  21. Freud, Sigmund? Was he a philosopher?
  22. What is that?
  23. Both "Lennon" and "Groucho" sound dull and boring, and talking in clichés in this fake debate, IMO.
