Numbersand free will

A difference between something and numbers that describe.

It might make a statement about AI

A bit of discussion toward AI

In the example a vector was used. We can use numbers to describe it. We could use numbers to describe what would be another vector but that doesn't make it a vector in a real sense. Much like assigning a house address to a lot. The house isn't there, only an address.

We can use computers to solve problems as we would with our minds. But are there problems that we can't create programming to solve?

"wholly other" realm

There is no way to talk someone into feeling it any more then you can talk someone into falling in love.

His revelation into his life makes me wonder if that may be a case against the simulation. Maybe numbers can do all things, just describe things.
