Today, in Dublin, Ireland, I encountered a church with a sign out front with a motto very similar to "the unexamined life is not worth living." I said to myself, this philosophy thing, it's getting around.
One more Friday before I will rejoin you. Remember, you are continuing to meet in my absence!
In the meantime here's an article to be thinking about, an interview with futurist, Kevin Kelly -- https://www.theguardian.com/books/2016/jun/12/kevin-kelly-interview-the-inevitable-book-song-ai-future?0p19G=c
Further in that vein is an interview podcast of Startalk (Neil Degrasse Tyson) with Ray Kurzweil -- https://www.startalkradio.net/show/conversation-ray-kurzweil/
Futurism is not philosophy, but philosophy must concern itself with the future. True or false?
Best regards from Donnybrook
