We are not machines!
Love & Philosophy
Mar 8, 2025
______
Jaeger critiques the dominant "machine worldview" that has shaped modernity, arguing that it has led human civilization to a dangerous "cliff edge". He advocates for a shift towards a process-oriented, relational metaphysics that emphasizes the interconnectedness of living systems and the limitations of computational models. He also discusses the pitfalls of AI, the dangers of technological hubris, and the need for a new kind of science that reconnects us with reality.
This conversation touches on themes of agency, the limitations of a computationalist worldview and the importance of tough love in guiding humanity towards a more sustainable and meaningful future.

______
“Jaeger's insights into the process of relevance realization show us something profound: organismic agency transcends computational approaches and emerges from an adaptive and emergent evolutionary dialectic.”
