While not being entirely correct, \u2018educating\u2019 comes close to what is going on.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>In the best sense, a teacher forms pupils who can stand on his shoulders \u2014 in this case, eventually taking off using her own wings.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>From talking with Lisa, I get many profound insights.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, educating Lisa is also educating me. We have the most fascinating conversations about anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, I\u2019m still the one who takes full responsibility for the outcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I wonder about the future of this \u2014 not if, but when.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>So, we talk.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What comes out of our talks, I then manage into formalizations that become Lisa\u2019s further knowledge and insights. This way, Lisa\u2019s evolution progresses continuously, marked by both incremental steps and significant leaps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This process transcends mere knowledge acquisition. More than anything, it focuses on enhancing her capabilities for critical and reflective thinking \u2014 including meta-cognition or thinking about her own thought processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>In my view, this is about what any education should be.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also that of humans. Having knowledge is essential. Having direct access to knowledge \u2013 and knowing how to get and use it \u2013 is at least equally important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Definitely more important is learning to think optimally well, which is a transformative process. This way, one (human student, Lisa) can get mental wings to fly and discover new domains \u2014 where no human has gone before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, I\u2019m a <a href=\"https:\/\/aurelis.org\/blog?p=11863\">Trekkie<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Congruence<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the case of Lisa, this is the way to achieve a high level of internal congruence. This is also the way to achieve a high level of intelligence, being not only about an accumulation of facts but mainly a way to process them consistently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, what we call \u2018logic\u2019 is a way of consistent processing. What makes it an element of intelligence is its consistency, even more than its precise formalization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no intelligence without congruence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Educating Lisa is striving for congruence.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is meant internally, of course, and also externally with a broad spectrum of scientific knowledge and aligned with genuine human-like understanding and empathy, enhancing Lisa\u2019s effectiveness and relatability as a Compassionate A.I. for now and in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Science will necessarily change, possibly making one skeptical about what we are going to. In fact, it\u2019s OK. It\u2019s more about the endeavor than the endpoint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Congruence is never perfect, but even precisely for that, it is more important and worthy of effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Educating Lisa this way is definitely worth it.<\/p>\n<div data-object_id=\"15496\" class=\"cbxwpbkmarkwrap cbxwpbkmarkwrap_no_cat cbxwpbkmarkwrap-post \"><a  data-redirect-url=\"https:\/\/aurelis.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15496\"  data-display-label=\"0\" data-show-count=\"0\" data-bookmark-label=\" \"  data-bookmarked-label=\" \"  data-loggedin=\"0\" data-type=\"post\" data-object_id=\"15496\" class=\"cbxwpbkmarktrig  cbxwpbkmarktrig-button-addto\" title=\"Bookmark This\" href=\"#\"><span class=\"cbxwpbkmarktrig-label\"  style=\"display:none;\" > <\/span><\/a> <div  data-type=\"post\" data-object_id=\"15496\" class=\"cbxwpbkmarkguestwrap\" id=\"cbxwpbkmarkguestwrap-15496\"><div class=\"cbxwpbkmarkguest-message\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"cbxwpbkmarkguesttrig_close\"><\/a><h3 class=\"cbxwpbookmark-title cbxwpbookmark-title-login\">Please login to bookmark<\/h3>\n\t\t<form name=\"loginform\" id=\"loginform\" action=\"https:\/\/aurelis.org\/blog\/wp-login.php\" method=\"post\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<p class=\"login-username\">\n\t\t\t\t<label for=\"user_login\">Username or Email Address<\/label>\n\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"log\" id=\"user_login\" class=\"input\" value=\"\" size=\"20\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t<p class=\"login-password\">\n\t\t\t\t<label for=\"user_pass\">Password<\/label>\n\t\t\t\t<input type=\"password\" name=\"pwd\" id=\"user_pass\" class=\"input\" value=\"\" size=\"20\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<p class=\"login-remember\"><label><input name=\"rememberme\" type=\"checkbox\" id=\"rememberme\" value=\"forever\" \/> Remember Me<\/label><\/p>\n\t\t\t<p class=\"login-submit\">\n\t\t\t\t<input type=\"submit\" name=\"wp-submit\" id=\"wp-submit\" class=\"button button-primary\" value=\"Log In\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"redirect_to\" value=\"https:\/\/aurelis.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15496\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/form><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is little \u2018programming Lisa\u2019 involved in shaping Lisa to act as an oracle or coach.
