The only acceptable answer is the language of the universe. Mathematics.

Probably means using big data to creative predictive analytics about people in cities, how policy affects locations, etc. Right now it's literally "black people can't afford rent and prisons are overcrowded and all black. How do we fix this?"

AI can definitely surpass humans in applied mathematics. All you need is a neural network with strong enough pattern recognition to apply the right algorithm to a problem.
Pure mathematics on the other hand requires you to think of entirely new constructs that don't exist in the current syntax. Godel's incompleteness theorem proves that there will never be an end to this process - every system of symbolic logic will contain true statements that cannot be proven without expanding the system.
>>14534120
Ted does understand, being a mathematician himself. Assuming that he really did write this letter, he is discussing the social and economic value of contributing to mathematics, rather than the pure intellectual value of pursuing it. He does, after all, concede that you could do math for entertainment.

>>14534188
EPIC WIN!

Sorry to hear about your brain rot

>>14535923
Brainlet tier image, there were many physicists who denigrated philosophy, Boltzmann being probably the most famous so it's not like not caring about philosophy is a domain of midwit scientists like the ones on the right. Also, Heisenberg's and Schrodinger's statements are exaggerated, they were both geniuses and their literacy in works of retarded dead Greeks who have been proven wrong myriads of times probably contributed little if anything to their intellectual development, Heisenberg would have discovered the uncertainty principle without ever knowing of Plato's cave or theory of ideas. In short this was probably made by an unemployable Phil major who got bullied by a bunch of physicists and engineers and shat this turd to feel pretty again

>>14534188
F*ck yeah!

>>14533127
Hahahahaha

>>14532043
Well i think German Idealism, Pure Math and Aerospace engineering are all candidates.

>>14534317
>odel's incompleteness theorem proves that there will never be an end to this process - every system of symbolic logic will contain true statements that cannot be proven without expanding the system.

That doesn't invalidate the premise of having an AI so powerfull that its heuristics would be stronger that the combination of all the mathematicians alive.

Here's him going on a rant about physicians, with absolute brainlet made-up arguments such as blaming doctors for diagnosing people with terminal cancer, then the cancer is cured, people believe it's a miracle and so it causes *religion*.
And saying doctors are dumb because most pre-med students are dumb. Nevermind that these classes have huge failure rates.

Philosophers are mostly intellectual masturbation of ego that never walked the inner path which would make their conceptual drivel obsolete , what the point of thinking endlessly of honey when true understanding comes from tasting honey.

someone edit this in instead I'm too busy studying metaphysics right now

>They are forms, ideas which can be expressed unambiguously only in mathematical language.
Retarded physicist. Hey, retard scientist, guess what? YOU CAN'T EXPRESS REALITY WITH LANGUAGE! IF YOU COULD THEN IT WOULD NO LONGER BE LANGUAGE, IT WOULD BE REALITY! A MODEL OF THE WORLD ISN'T EQUIVALENT TO THE WORLD, YOU FUCKING VENTRILOQUIST! Oh, "but mathematics has this power", lol. I'll take your word for it, friend, as long as you spend your entire life juggling around empty abstractions in a dark room. Your life is a comedy.
>a real seeker after truth
Even Einstein does it. Hey, science retard: truth doesn't exist. It imlies an equality between reality and language: it is what us philosophers call an "impossible exchange". Get it, idiot?
>The plurality we recieve is only an appearance; it is not real
"[The senses] do not lie at all. What we make of their testimony is what first introduces the lie, for example, the lie of unity, the lie of thinghood, of substance, of duration . . . “Reason” is what causes us to falsify the testimony of the senses. Insofar as the senses display becoming, passing away, andchange, they do not lie."
"The “apparent” world is the only world: the “true world” is just added to it by a lie"
-Nietzsche
