Axiomatic wisdom: Wisdom that can't be derived by pure thinking but can only be gained by building up confidence in practical application by interacting with the environment - an open system. Wisdom that can't be gained through exploratory engineering but only by research.
- Random number generators in computers can run out of entropy. If random numbers are drawn faster than entropy sources can regenerate - from outside.
- Is there a fundamental rate axiomatic wisdom can trickle in? If so does this rate limit the speed of technological evolution?
- Nature collected axiomatic wisdom over a long time. Can we (for a while) circumvent this speed-limit by drawing from nature? At which rate was nature accumulating axiomatic wisdom? How much axiomatic wisdom has nature accumulate already? At which rate are we destroying axiomatic wisdom by destroying nature?
- Total shut-in in VR of all humanity would cut off all influx of axiomatic wisdom.
- Both work on the border to the unknown and shut-in work (compression sorting classification mental housekeeping) is needed. (Maybe related: The purpose of dreams)
- Gödel & Turing - what distinguishes human intellect from computers
