In the fields of Artificial Intelligence, Memetics and Cyberpsychology, when challenged to eliminate biases, we are often confronted by ontological terms such as “reality” and “truth”, but what do they even mean?
Truth is a subjective human construct that emerges as a result of information, residing in the mind and nowhere else. As stated in our SMART Framework for Cognitive Dominance, “Reason and rationality reenforce relatively real reproductions of reality.”
We not only find ourselves in complex interconnected information networks, but the neural networks of our minds themselves are such networks, with strong and weak connections. Reality is an emergent non-fractal illusion created by the fractal properties of the mind as a result of the fractal properties of our information ecosystems.
Most of the information that is passively consumed by people is the result of such chain reactions in some way, and is thus either inherently “false”, leading or misleading in some way. The shared subjective realities that constitute “truth” have value only in their pragmatic compatibility with other “fictional” constructs proven to have some benefit or value.
