This lecture discusses key ideas from the Utilitarian philosopher, Jeremy Bentham's work, Introduction to the Principles of Morals and Legislation Here we examine his discussion of what he calls the "hedonic calculus", which is how a utilitarian applies the principle of utility in practice for moral decision-making. We look at each of the seven factors Bentham includes in this calculus, and apply them to some everyday examples.

How should we punish criminals? In Impermissible Punishments, the Arthur Liman Professor of Law at Yale Law School, Judith Resnik, provides a historical narrative of punishment in European and American prisons. Tracing the evolution from Jeremy Bentham's utilitarian Panopticon through post-World War II human rights frameworks, Resnik argues that punishment systems developed as a transatlantic rather than uniquely American project. Her analysis reveals how prisoners themselves, not reformers, first articulated the concept of retained rights during detention. Resnik's new book chronicles a crucial divergence after the 1980s, when European systems maintained stronger human rights commitments while American prisons retreated from recognizing prisoners as rights-bearing individuals, thereby making prison a problem for its democracy. 1. Prison systems developed as a transatlantic project, not American innovation Punishment theories and practices emerged from shared Enlightenment thinking across Europe and America in the 1700s-1800s. Figures like Beccaria, Bentham, and Tocqueville created interconnected ideas about rational, purposeful punishment that crossed national boundaries.2. Prisoners, not reformers, first articulated the concept of retained rights While reformers debated how to punish effectively, it was people in detention themselves—like Winston Talley in Arkansas in 1965—who first argued they retained fundamental rights during incarceration. This represented a revolutionary shift from viewing prisoners as "civilly dead."3. World War II created the crucial turning point for prisoners' rights The horrors of concentration camps and fascist regimes made clear the dangers of treating any group as less than human. The 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights and 1955 UN prison rules marked the formal recognition of prisoners as rights-bearing individuals.4. America and Europe diverged after the 1980s on prisoner treatment While both regions initially embraced prisoners' rights in the 1960s-70s, the U.S. retreated during the "war on crime" era. Europe maintained stronger human rights commitments, while America expanded punitive measures like solitary confinement and mass incarceration.5. Prison conditions reflect broader democratic health Resnik argues that how a society treats its most marginalized members—prisoners, immigrants, minorities—indicates the strength of its democratic institutions. Authoritarian treatment of any group threatens the rights of all citizens in a democratic system.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Eric Seufert joins to dissect AI hype, marginal ROAS, Jeremy Bentham's legacy, and managing a multi-million-dollar marketing budget that falls empirically short. WE discuss:How do you evaluate an “AI startup” in 90 seconds without being duped?Can LLM-driven hypothesis testing replace the Monday creative meeting and outperform it?If marginal ROAS is the real constraint, why do teams still optimize to averages?When should a Battlefield-scale launch actually spend less on day one and wait two weeks?Why did free-to-play economics conquer games but stall on platforms like Twitch or Spotify?Will AI-driven volatility make electricity markets funky?

Mit der Gründung des Welttierschutzverbands am 31.8.1950 wird Tierschutz zur globalen Frage. Doch Kriege, Klimakrise und Populismus erschweren Tierschützern die Arbeit. Von Jonas Colsman.

Read the full transcript here. How has utilitarianism evolved from early Chinese Mohism to the formulations of Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill? On what points did Bentham and Mill agree and disagree? How has utilitarianism shaped Effective Altruism? Does utilitarianism only ever evaluate actions, or does it also evaluate people? Does the "veil of ignorance" actually help to build the case for utilitarianism? What's wrong with just trying to maximize expected value? Does acceptance of utilitarianism require acceptance of moral realism? Can introspection change a person's intrinsic values? How does utilitarianism intersect with artificial intelligence?Tyler John is a Visiting Scholar at the Leverhulme Centre for the Future of Intelligence and an advisor to several philanthropists.

Jeff Leinenkugel returns to help Adam and JP write a memoir for The Life and Death of Jeremy Bentham. We've seen a lot of sad Locke plot lines, but this one might take the cake. We've theorized that this episode is the key to a lot of plot lines. Is it? Ehhhh....? Kinda? At least we get some amazing Lance Reddick, some prime time squibs, and life saving cunnilingus. THAT'S NEW YORK, BAY BAY!

Primeramente sería interesante habla de la definición de inteligencia y una explicación podría ser: “La inteligencia se define como la capacidad de entender, comprender y aplicar conocimientos, razonar, resolver problemas y adaptarse al entorno.” Tener en cuenta que en todos los mitos creacionistas siempre que se le da al hombre el alito de vida se le da la inteligencia. En el Génesis, Dios sopla en la nariz de Adán y este se convierte en un “alma viviente”. Pero ese aliento no es solo oxígeno...es inteligencia, capacidad de nombrar las cosas, de distinguir, de elegir. Si eso es inteligencia ¿ la IA que es? Una definición que nos dan es; Disciplina científica que se ocupa de crear programas informáticos que ejecutan operaciones comparables a las que realiza la mente humana. Como el aprendizaje y el razonamiento lógico.Pero hay dos capacidades críticas que siguen siendo exclusivas de los seres humanos: la auténtica invención y la creatividad, por eso la verdadera AGI todavía no la tenemos ( Me refiero al comun de los mortales, los dueños del cortijo no lo sabemos) Otra cosa bien distinta es el conocimiento, que puede ha veces también traer problemas, como veremos más adelante. Y siempre un conocimiento superior da ventaja a aquel que lo posee sobre el que no. El Poder, detrás del velo de la IA y de la Agenda Transhumanista. No es una simple mejora tecnológica, sino un proyecto milenario y oscuro para someter a la humanidad a un control total, utilizando la programación mental y los rituales como herramientas fundamentales para transformar a los humanos en seres dóciles y previsibles. El transhumanismo no busca mejorar a la humanidad, sino "restar", es decir, crear una infrahumanidad funcional y dócil. En lugar de sumar, el proyecto consistiría en una especie de ingeniería inversa: tomar lo mejor del ser humano (la inteligencia colectiva, la creatividad, el libre albedrío) y limitarlo para crear un "esclavo más eficaz". Es un proyecto de dos caras. Mientras una élite minoritaria se convierte en suprahumanidad (eugenismo), la mayoría de la población es degenerada a una condición de infrahumanidad (disgenismo), convirtiéndose en una especie de zombis que alimentan el sistema con su energía vital. Robotización del humano frente a humanización del robot. la cuestión crucial no es la humanización del robot (es decir, hacer que los robots parezcan humanos), sino la robotización del humano. Esta robotización no significa parecerse a una máquina, sino comportarse de una manera "inhumana": sin libertad, sin sentimientos, sin creatividad, sin preguntarse por el sentido de la vida. Hablar de IA es hablar de una tecnología clave y disruptiva que va a alterar numerosos aspectos de nuestras vidas. Pero hay que dejar algo claro: esta tecnología está siendo manejada y dosificada por el poder real, los verdaderos amos del mundo. No sabemos quiénes son, pero sí sabemos que no son las marionetas que nos ponen en escena. Sabemos, eso sí, que son los mismos que manejan la liquidez del sistema monetario internacional, creando ciclos de crisis y orden de los que siempre sacan provecho. Existe un poder oculto, también conocido como “Estado profundo”, que canaliza de forma importante los flujos emocionales y energéticos de la sociedad. Utilizan técnicas ancestrales y conocimientos transmitidos entre iniciados, que se centran, entre otras cosas, en conseguir el control social de la forma más práctica y económica posible para ellos. A la vista de todos, usan a líderes y estrellas como arquetipos para los no iniciados, desde presidentes hasta directivos de grandes empresas. Al mismo tiempo, en el "obscenario" y apartados de la vista de todos, realizan otros rituales donde lo sincronizan todo según sus creencias, donde siempre hablan de la LUZ, aquella que robó Prometeo y mirar el infierno que le tocó padecer después de adquirir el conocimiento que los dioses no querían que tuviera. Lo que es crucial entender es que estas tecnologías tan relevantes están siendo planificadas, manejadas y dosificadas desde el mismo centro del poder. Nos hacen creer que hay diferentes empresas que compiten entre sí por el mercado, pero esa disputa escenificada no es real. Todas trabajan para los mismos amos, con un objetivo ya marcado: avanzar en su agenda a medida que la sociedad normaliza sus ideas. Este es el primer punto clave: la relación entre la IA y el transhumanismo. Debemos abordar este concepto porque la fusión hombre-máquina es uno de los objetivos de la agenda de control. Buscan crear un tipo de “ser híbrido”, sin alma y fácil de controlar. Un futuro distópico que podría cumplirse si no nos oponemos a ello. El momento crucial para la consecución de sus objetivos sería cuando, una vez normalizado el asunto, consigan fabricar "humanos" mediante vientres artificiales. Con esto, tendrían solucionado el tema del control social. Podrían hacer "impresiones de andróginos" en la medida que los necesiten, igual que emiten el dinero que quieren. Serían personas desarraigadas, sin familia, sin descendencia y quizás incluso sin genitales. Su inteligencia estaría genéticamente limitada según la tarea que deban desempeñar. Podrían incluso crear emisiones especiales de híbridos con electrónica insertada en su organismo, conectados a redes y potenciados en sus capacidades, lo que supondría un grado de control inimaginable. Pero esperemos que la sociedad reaccione y evite estos peligros. Ahora que hemos enmarcado la situación, es hora de pasar a los orígenes de la inteligencia artificial. La historia oficial nos suele presentar estos hitos como hechos aislados, para que no entendamos las conexiones ni miremos debajo de la alfombra. Pero si descodificamos la historia, veremos que la idea de la IA no es un invento reciente, sino que tiene raíces profundas en la filosofía, los mitos y las tradiciones ancestrales. La história podría empezar perfectamente con la historia de Adán y Eva y su expulsión del paraiso por la adquisición del conocimiento prohibido."Si comes de este fruto, serás como Dios. Conocerás el bien y el mal." Dijo la serpiente y Adan y eva al igual que Prometeo también acabaron castigados por Dios. En Génesis 3:22, se dice: “Ahora el hombre ha venido a ser como uno de nosotros, al conocer el bien y el mal. Que no extienda ahora su mano y tome también del árbol de la vida, y coma, y viva para siempre…”. ¿Qué tipo de conocimiento adquiere Eva? No se trata de conocimiento técnico o científico, sino algo más profundo y existencial: Conocimiento moral: la capacidad de distinguir entre el bien y el mal. Autoconciencia: al instante, Eva (y luego Adán) se da cuenta de que está desnuda. Esto implica vergüenza, intimidad, juicio propio. Libre albedrío: al desobedecer, ejerce una elección. Ya no es solo criatura, sino agente. Comer del fruto es adquirir la conciencia humana tal como la entendemos hoy: saber que uno existe, que puede decidir, y que sus actos tienen consecuencias. Las manzanas envenenadas🧙‍♀️ Blancanieves📖 Eva en el Edén🧪 Alan Turing (leyenda urbana) Se dice que murió tras comer una manzana envenenada con cianuro, aunque no está confirmado. Curiosamente, el logo de Apple con una manzana mordida ha alimentado esta teoría. 🎯 Guillermo Tell Obligado a disparar con una ballesta a una manzana colocada sobre la cabeza de su hijo. Aunque no estaba envenenada, el riesgo era mortal. Podríamos hablar de Talos el primer "androide" de la historia.Talos era un gigante de bronce, forjado por Hefesto (el dios herrero) por encargo de Zeus o de Minos, rey de Creta (según la versión). Tenía una única vena que recorría su cuerpo entero, sellada con un clavo o perno de bronce en el tobillo. En lugar de sangre, su cuerpo contenía "icor", el fluido vital de los dioses. En la edad media en el siglo XIIl el trabajo de Ramón Llull, conocido como el Ars Magna, puede considerarse un precursor conceptual de la inteligencia artificial. Mas adelante si hay tiempo hablaremos de él. En la alquimia, la idea de fabricar un "hombre artificial" o homúnculo fue explorada por figuras como Paracelso, quien describió procedimientos para su creación. Similarmente, los alquimistas islámicos investigaron el concepto de takwin, la creación artificial de vida. En Praga en el siglo XVI los judios hablan del Golem, criatura sin alma creada para servir al hombre. hecha de barro o arcilla y animada mediante palabras sagradas, la inserción de nombres divinos. Con el advenimiento del siglo XIX, estas visiones se trasladaron al ámbito de la ficción literaria. Obras como "Frankenstein" de Mary Shelley exploraron las implicaciones éticas de crear seres conscientes, mientras que "R.U.R." (Rossum's Universal Robots) de Karel Čapek, publicada en 1920, introdujo el término "robot" al léxico global, marcando un punto de inflexión en la conceptualización de las máquinas con capacidad de trabajo autónomo. Y aquí en este punto es cuando entramos en los años 50 son considerados el punto de partida oficial de la inteligencia artificial moderna. Aunque hubo ideas previas, fue en esa década cuando la IA empezó a tomar forma como disciplina científica. Aquí te dejo los hitos clave: 🔹 1950: Alan Turing y su famosa prueba Publica "Computing Machinery and Intelligence" y propone el Test de Turing, una forma de evaluar si una máquina puede pensar como un humano. 🔹 1956: Conferencia de Dartmouth Organizada por John McCarthy, quien acuñó el término "Inteligencia Artificial". Reunió a pioneros como Marvin Minsky y Claude Shannon para discutir cómo crear máquinas inteligentes. 🔹 Primeros modelos y algoritmos Se desarrollan los primeros perceptrones (redes neuronales simples) por Frank Rosenblatt en 1958. Se crean programas capaces de jugar a las damas o resolver teoremas matemáticos. 🧪 Aunque los avances eran limitados por la tecnología de la época, estos años sentaron las bases para todo lo que vino después: aprendizaje automático, redes neuronales profundas, procesamiento de lenguaje natural… ¡y hasta Hoy! Para empezar este recorrido, es fundamental detenernos en la figura de Ramon Llull, un filósofo, teólogo y cortesano del siglo XIII. Nacimiento: 1232, Palma de Mallorca, España. Fallecimiento: 1316, en el Mediterráneo. El trabajo de Llull, conocido como el Ars Magna, puede considerarse un precursor conceptual de la inteligencia artificial. Pero no es un conocimiento que se le ocurriera de la nada. Como buen cortesano y perteneciente a una buena familia, Llull era conocedor de saberes ancestrales recogidos en otras tradiciones, que simplemente se expresan de otra manera. La relación entre su trabajo y la IA moderna se basa en varios puntos clave. Para empezar, la mecanización del razonamiento. El Ars Magna partía de la premisa de que el razonamiento y la verdad podían descomponerse en principios básicos. Llull representaba estos conceptos con letras y los organizaba en figuras geométricas como círculos concéntricos que podían ser girados. El objetivo era combinar estos principios de forma sistemática para generar proposiciones lógicamente válidas, demostrando verdades de forma infalible. Esta idea de un sistema mecánico que genera conocimiento de forma automática a partir de reglas definidas es la base de los sistemas computacionales y de la IA. Es lo que podríamos llamar una "máquina lógica". En este sentido, la conexión de Llull con la Cábala y la gematría es evidente. El Ars Magna se basa en un sistema simbólico donde las letras tienen un significado profundo. Su método de combinar principios es comparable a las técnicas cabalísticas de gematría (la interpretación numérica de las letras) y la combinación de las letras del alfabeto hebreo para obtener conocimientos ocultos. La idea subyacente es la misma: que la verdad y la sabiduría están codificadas en los símbolos y pueden ser reveladas a través de su manipulación sistemática. Podríamos decir que Llull inventó el primer "hardware" de pensamiento simbólico, aunque su "software" fuera más filosófico que informático. Mecanización del razonamiento: El Ars Magna partía de la premisa de que el razonamiento y la verdad podían ser descompuestos en principios básicos. Llull representaba estos conceptos con letras y los organizaba en figuras geométricas (discos giratorios). El objetivo era combinar estos principios de forma sistemática para generar proposiciones lógicas válidas. Esta idea de un sistema mecánico que, a partir de reglas y principios definidos, genera conocimiento de forma automática, es la base de los sistemas computacionales y la IA moderna. Los Dignidades de Dios o Principios Absolutos: Representados por letras de la B a la K, Llull consideraba que estos eran atributos divinos universales y perfectos. Son: B - Bondad C - Grandeza D - Eternidad E - Poder F - Sabiduría G - Voluntad H - Virtud I - Verdad K - Gloria Principios Relativos: Estos conceptos representaban relaciones entre los principios absolutos y se usaban para generar proposiciones lógicas. Incluyen: Diferencia Concordancia Contrariedad Principio Medio Fin Mayoridad Igualdad Minoridad Al combinar estos principios de forma mecánica, Llull creía que se podía demostrar cualquier verdad de manera infalible, creando así la primera "máquina de pensar" de la historia. El concepto de combinatoria: La obra de Llull se fundamenta en el arte de la combinatoria, explorando todas las relaciones lógicas posibles entre los conceptos a través del movimiento de sus discos. Este enfoque es un antecedente directo de la computación y la IA, donde los algoritmos y programas informáticos no son más que un conjunto de instrucciones que combinan datos y operaciones de manera sistemática para resolver problemas. Lenguaje y símbolos artificiales: Llull creó un alfabeto artificial de nueve letras para representar y manipular conceptos. De manera similar, la IA se construye sobre lenguajes de programación, que son sistemas simbólicos con reglas precisas diseñados para que las máquinas puedan procesar información y ejecutar operaciones de forma estructurada. En resumen, aunque el Ars Magna no era una computadora en el sentido moderno, la visión de Llull de que el pensamiento podía ser mecanizado y manipulado a través de un sistema de símbolos y reglas combinatorias es un antecedente directo de los principios que rigen la inteligencia artificial. De hecho, su influencia fue reconocida por figuras posteriores como el filósofo y matemático Gottfried Leibniz, quien también se considera un pionero de la computación. Podríamos decir que Llull inventó el primer "hardware" de pensamiento simbólico, aunque su "software" fuera más filosófico que informático. La gracia de la historia es que él quería convencer a herejes y, sin saberlo, sentó las bases para que hoy una IA te esté respondiendo Tanto la Cábala como el Ars Magna se basan en un sistema simbólico donde las letras y los números tienen un significado profundo. El método de Llull para combinar sus principios es comparable a las técnicas cabalísticas de gematría (interpretación numérica de las letras) y la combinación de las letras del alfabeto hebreo para obtener conocimientos ocultos. La idea subyacente es que la verdad y la sabiduría están codificadas en los símbolos y pueden ser reveladas a través de su manipulación sistemática. En resumen podemos entrever que Llull como buen cortesano y perteneciente a una buena familia era conocedor de conocimientos ancestrales recogidos en otras tradiciones y simplemente se expresan de otra manera. ………………………………………………………………………………………. Cleón la contracción entre clon y eón. Un eón es una unidad de tiempo geológico de escala extremadamente larga, utilizada para dividir la historia de la Tierra en los períodos más amplios. Representa miles de millones de años y es la división más grande en la escala de tiempo geológico, por encima de las eras, períodos, épocas y edades. Por ejemplo, la historia de la Tierra se divide en cuatro eones principales algunos de más de 2000 millones de años. Vivimos actualmente en el Fanerozoico que se traduce como "vida visible" o "vida evidente". Este término fue acuñado para describir el eón geológico que comenzó hace aproximadamente 541 millones de años Reglamento Europeo sobre Inteligencia Artificial (LA LEY 16665/2024) casualmente tiene un 666 ………………………………………………………………………………………. Hector, el webmaster del hilo rojo decía en un reciente programa sobre Palantir: “Palantir es el panóptico del siglo XXI. El ojo del gran hermano de Orwell.” El panoptico es un tipo de diseño que nos permite controlar un amplio espacio desde un único punto sin ser detectados. Se trata de la garita del vigilante en medio de la prisión, de la torre de control. El filósofo utilitarista Jeremy Bentham fue su diseñador, Hector nos mostró como este señor era también masón y estaba relacionado al mas alto nivel. Les dejaremos el enlace al video en la descripción del podcast. En un anterior programa de enero donde en el mismo canal analizaron que es Palantir comprobaba yo para preparar este podcast que TODAS las fuentes que presentaba @ElHiloRojoTV en su video de enero de 2025 habian DESAPARECIDO. Estamos hablando de artículos publicados en Forbes, The Guardian, Bloomberg, Financial Times, CNBC o incluso el propio MIT. En todos los casos el enlace original ha desaparecido, ojo, no digo que haya desaparecido el artículo en sí, pero han cortado el enlace original. Leo textualmente de una descripción del Hilo rojo sobre lo que es Palantir añadiendo yo algunas cosas: Creada en 2003 con el apoyo de In-Q-Tel, el fondo de inversión de la CIA, Palantir se diseñó para procesar grandes cantidades de información y hacer conexiones invisibles para el ojo humano. Su fundador, Peter Thiel, también cofundador de PayPal, ha estado siempre en la intersección entre tecnología, poder y vigilancia global. Palantir no solo analiza datos, sino que los fusiona en tiempo real: redes sociales, correos electrónicos, transacciones bancarias y hasta movimientos físicos. ¿Os acordáis del PNR? Pues esto es aún mucho más intrusivo ya que muchísimas organizaciones y países han acordado compartir sus bases de datos con Palantir. ¿Qué significa esto? Una red de control total, donde cada actividad queda registrada, permitiendo a gobiernos y corporaciones predecir comportamientos y tomar decisiones basadas en modelos algorítmicos. Palantir es utilizada por el Pentágono, la NSA, la CIA, el FBI, Interpol y gobiernos europeos y latinoamericanos. También lo utilizan grandes empresas como bancos o multinacionales. Sus herramientas se usan en operaciones antiterroristas, control de fronteras, vigilancia de ciudadanos y hasta persecución de disidentes políticos. ¿Hasta qué punto este nivel de vigilancia está transformando las democracias en estados de control absoluto? Su software ha sido utilizado en conflictos como la guerra en Ucrania, ayudando a identificar objetivos estratégicos y a procesar inteligencia en tiempo real. Palantir convierte el Big Data en un arma de guerra: soldados equipados con dispositivos conectados a su red pueden recibir información detallada sobre el enemigo en segundos. ¿Estamos entrando en una era donde la guerra es digital antes que física? A medida que más gobiernos y empresas adoptan Palantir, los límites entre seguridad, privacidad y control social se vuelven borrosos. ¿Es Palantir una herramienta para el bien o el paso final hacia una sociedad hipervigilada? ………………………………………………………………………………………. Los origenes de Palantir están en la Oficina de Conciencia de la Información ( IAO ) fue establecida por la Agencia de Proyectos de Investigación Avanzada de Defensa de los Estados Unidos (DARPA) en enero de 2002 para reunir varios proyectos de DARPA centrados en la aplicación de la vigilancia y la tecnología de la información para rastrear y monitorear a terroristas y otras amenazas asimétricas a la seguridad nacional de los Estados Unidos mediante el logro de " Conciencia de la Información Total “ o en inglés "Total Information Awareness" (TIA). Sí. La TIA, la agencia secreta para la que trabajaban Mortadelo y Filemón ha existido. La IAO se creó después de que el almirante John Poindexter , ex asesor de seguridad nacional de los Estados Unidos del presidente Ronald Reagan , y el ejecutivo de SAIC Brian Hicks se acercaran al Departamento de Defensa de los EE. UU . con la idea de un programa de concientización sobre la información después de los ataques del 11 de septiembre de 2001. Querían reunir la mayor cantidad de información de la historia. Leemos en la wikipedia: “El 2 de agosto de 2002, Poindexter dio un discurso en DARPAtech 2002 titulado "Descripción general de la Oficina de Concienciación sobre la Información" en el que describió el programa TIA. Además del programa en sí, la participación de Poindexter como director de la IAO también generó inquietud entre algunos, ya que había sido condenado anteriormente por mentir al Congreso y alterar y destruir documentos relacionados con el caso Irán-Contra , aunque esas condenas fueron posteriormente revocadas con el argumento de que el testimonio utilizado en su contra estaba protegido.” ¿A que se dedicaba esta agencia? Veamos lo que nos dice la wikipedia: “Se logró mediante la creación de enormes bases de datos informáticas para recopilar y almacenar la información personal de todos los residentes de Estados Unidos, incluyendo correos electrónicos personales, redes sociales, registros de tarjetas de crédito, llamadas telefónicas, historiales médicos y muchas otras fuentes, sin necesidad de una orden de registro. La información se analizaba posteriormente para detectar actividades sospechosas, conexiones entre individuos y "amenazas". El programa también incluía financiación para tecnologías de vigilancia biométrica que permitieran identificar y rastrear a personas mediante cámaras de vigilancia y otros métodos. Tras las críticas públicas de que el desarrollo y la implementación de la tecnología podrían llevar a un sistema de vigilancia masiva, el Congreso retiró la financiación de la IAO en 2003. Sin embargo, varios proyectos de la IAO siguieron financiándose bajo nombres diferentes, como reveló Edward Snowden durante las revelaciones de vigilancia masiva de 2013.” El pionero y más relevante programa de predictividad subjetiva fue la Strategic Subject List (SSL) elaborada en el año 2012 por el Instituto de Tecnología de Illinois, adoptado por la Policía de Chicago desde el año 2012. Ya en el año 2017, el conjunto de datos incluía a 398.684 personas. Han existido programas predictivos como Programa de Delincuentes Crónicos (2011-2019, PredPol y Operación LÁSER (Extracción y Restauración Estratégica en Los Ángeles), estos dos polémicos programas predictivos empleados durante una década por la Policía de Los Ángeles (LAPD), ahora ya desactivados por la cantidad de abusos y fallos cometidos. Dice Luis Lafont en su tesis “La policía predictiva más allá de Minority Report”: “Las empresas que desarrollan programas predictivos se escudan con frecuencia en el secreto comercial para no revelar los criterios que se siguen en la elaboración del algoritmo y evitar que otras compañías puedan copiar el software. Ello determina que los sistemas predictivos siguen de forma mayoritaria un modelo de caja negra que no explica al público en general ni a los usuarios los argumentos y razonamientos detrás de la predicción, en particular por quienes deben aplicarlas.” También en Europa, los sistemas predictivos de vigilancia policial se utilizan para anticipar y prevenir delitos mediante el análisis de datos. En Francia, el Analyst Notebook (i2AN) se emplea para combatir estructuras criminales y terrorismo, conectando personas y crímenes. En Italia, KeyCrime predice atracos analizando características de sospechosos y modus operandi. En los Países Bajos, el CAS identifica áreas de riesgo delictivo mediante mapas espacio-temporales. En Alemania, PRECOBS, SKALA y KIMPRO predicen la repetición de crímenes usando patrones geográficos. En el Reino Unido, Predpol, Gang Matrix y HART se centran en puntos calientes, bandas y reiteración criminal. En España, el P3-DSS (Predictive Police Patrolling) genera mapas de puntos calientes para optimizar patrullajes, EuroCop Pred-Crime apoya la predicción de delitos, y VioGen se enfoca en prevenir la violencia de género, mientras que un programa de la Guardia Civil predice incendios forestales mediante perfiles psicosociológicos. ……………………………………………………………………………………….

The boys drink and review Delicious IPA from Stone, then discuss prisons, and whether we're in a digital version of one. The "panopticon" is a prison design invented by the philosopher Jeremy Bentham. The idea is that if you make prisoners feel as if they're constantly under surveillance, the prisoners will regulate themselves and the guards won't have to bang them about so much. Modern prisons have adopted some of Bentham's ideas, but so have many other institutions. Foucault said this idea was the blueprint for all modern institutions. Schools, hospitals, and other organizations enforce conformity by defining what is "normal" and by constant surveillance. Stephen Cave added the concept of a "freedom quotient" by which we can determine how much freedom a person can exercise in any given situation. The boys tie it all together and ask whether the modern world is a digital prison. We know we're being surveilled. We know we're supposed to follow what the powerful have defined as "normal."

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for April 24, 2025 is: ostensible • ah-STEN-suh-bul • adjective Ostensible is used to describe something that seems or is said to be true or real, but is possibly not true or real. In other words, it is plausible rather than demonstrably true or real. // The ostensible purpose of a filibuster is to extend debate, but in reality it is used to delay or prevent action. See the entry > Examples: “No drums, no bass, no conventional song structures: Hosianna Mantra was a 40-minute contemplation of the cosmos and cosmic love, couched in words and sounds that explicitly linked it to humanity's grandest and most consistent way of considering meaning, religion. The ostensible polytheism conveyed by the name and the concept were only ways to realize how little we actually know, and how much we wager through mere survival.” — Grayson Haver Currin, Pitchfork, 19 Jan. 2025 Did you know? British philosopher and economist Jeremy Bentham once wrote to Indian religious leader Ram Mohan Roy asking him to “send me two letters—one confidential, another ostensible.” By ostensible he meant that, unlike the confidential letter, the latter was intended to be shown to people other than Bentham himself. This sense of ostensible shows clearly the influence of the word's Latin ancestor, the verb ostendere, meaning “to hold out for inspection,” “to show,” “to make clear by one's actions,” and “to demonstrate.” Ostensible is still used today as it is in Bentham's letter, but it is much more likely to suggest a discrepancy between a declared or implied aim or reason (i.e., the aim or reason that someone displays or “shows” to others) and the true one. For example, someone might give “seeing an old friend” as their ostensible reason for planning a trip when in reality they are planning on spending most of their time relaxing on the beach.

Jeremy Bentham began planning for his death at a young age. He wrote a will in 1769, at the age of 21. But how did this philosopher's dead body wind up on display in a university student center?

In this week's episode of Impact at Scale with Zal Dastur, we are doing a deep dive into energy with my guest, Jeremy Bentham, the Co-Chair of the World Energy Council. Jeremy discusses the critical themes surrounding the energy transition, including the role of the World Energy Council, the need for a shift in perception regarding energy transition, the importance of aligning various factors for successful implementation, and the potential of nuclear energy. We also explore the geopolitical aspects of energy planning, the size and impact of the energy system, the evolving role of fossil fuel companies and the significance of consumer demand and individual actions in driving the transition towards a sustainable energy future. Some Topics Jeremy Covered Reperceiving Energy Transition The Impact of Policy on Energy Systems Exploring Nuclear Energy Geopolitics and Energy Planning Other Titles We Considered When change happens it is better to be early than late Changing the perception of energy companies The green premium for commodities are hugely diluted Different ways to get to the same goal

Hello Interactors,We've entered fall here in the northern hemisphere, and you know what that means — pumpkin spice everything, cozy sweaters, and … economics! That's right, as the leaves change color (at least for those above 40°N latitude), it's the perfect time to explore how the changing seasons mirror shifts in human interaction, from the flow of resources to the balance of power and progress. This week, it's time to cozy up with Adam Smith, Jeremy Bentham, and James Watt —three names you probably didn't expect to find together, but trust me, they make quite the trio. So grab your favorite fall beverage and join me on a journey through the Industrial Revolution, steam engines, and the forgotten role of moral feedback loops in economics. Let's find out why balancing wealth and well-being is harder than finding a public restroom in an old university. PURGING THE URGE FOR SYMPATHYI needed to pee. More specifically, the stretch receptors in the walls of my bladder, which monitor the volume of urine inside, became activated. That sent sensory signals to the spinal cord and brain through my pelvic nerves. The pons in the brainstem (which includes a dedicated urination control center) processed this information in coordination with my prefrontal cortex, which allowed for conscious control over my decision to urinate.It was a Sunday, and the campus was dead. Lucky for me a door was open, so I ducked in and began my search for a potty. The hallway was musty and narrow. The walls were old, but not as old as the 250-year-old structure surrounding it. There was no immediately visible sign for a restroom, but there were numerous potential doors and directions for me to attempt. As I approached one of them, the industrial grade door magically opened before I could even touch it. I cautiously inched forward half wondering if it would lock behind me.Now inside another chamber further in the interior, I was met with another set of mysterious doors. I stepped inside another narrower hallway that twisted suddenly to a sign above another door that read WC. Whatever Potter-esque ghosts had guided me here clearly had sympathy. And so did my parasympathetic nervous system. It simultaneously signaled the detrusor muscle of my bladder wall to contract and my urethral sphincter to relax. I stood there in relief wondering if I could find my way out.I was visiting the University of Glasgow, hoping to learn more about its famous figures, especially Adam Smith, whom I see as an important moral philosopher rather than just the “father of economics.” A few days later in Edinburgh, I tortured my family by leading them on a search for his gravestone. I was pleased to find it acknowledged his The Theory of Moral Sentiments, where sympathy balances self-interest, as well as his more popular The Wealth of Nations. Unsurprisingly, the nearby tourist plaque focused only on Wealth of Nations, reflecting the emphasis on economics over his broader moral philosophy.Adam Smith's moral philosophy was central to his life's work, with The Theory of Moral Sentiments being his enduring focus, while The Wealth of Nations but a brief but significant interlude. For Smith, economics was not just about market mechanics, but deeply intertwined with human nature, ethics, and the broader pursuit of communal well-being. He was more concerned with the motivations behind human actions than with the technical details of market forces, which came to dominate modern economics. Smith believed that the drive for self-betterment was not solely about personal wealth but was intrinsically linked to the well-being of communities, where self-interest was balanced by sympathy for others.In Smith's view, economic actions should be guided by moral virtues, such as prudence and justice, ensuring that individual efforts to improve one's own life would ultimately contribute to the greater good of society. His exploration of economics was always part of a larger moral framework, where community engagement and ethical behavior were essential for both individual and societal progress. Today, this broader moral context is often overlooked, but for Smith, economics was inseparable from philosophical inquiry into human behavior. He emphasized how the improvement of human life goes far beyond just the accumulation of material wealth.MORALS MEET MARKET MANIPULATIONMany conservatives today may brush this interpretation as being too ‘woke'. Well, some eventually did back then too. As the British economy was expanding in Smith's later years, he spoke in favor of capping interest rates with usury law. Usury is defined as the practice of making unethical or immoral loans that unfairly enrich the lender, often involving excessive or abusive interest rates. He believed exorbitant rates could lead to preying on the disadvantaged during a time of need resulting in growing disadvantages to the larger community.Historically, many societies including ancient Christian, Jewish, Islamic, and Buddhist communities considered charging interest of any kind as wrong or illegal. Smith was rooted in elements of Christian morals, but critics claimed he was being hypocritical. They pointed to examples in his publications, often out of context, of where he suggested government can't know better than individuals about their own risks, costs, and benefits and thus should not meddle.But even in The Wealth of Nations Smith was clear about three conditions necessary for an effective economy and with each he paired moral values also found in The Theory of Moral Sentiments:* State-Justice: Smith argued, “Commerce and manufacturers…can seldom flourish long in any state which does not enjoy a regular administration of justice,” emphasizing the need for laws that ensure security and regulate excessive accumulation of wealth.* Market-Liberty: He valued the “liberty of trade…notwithstanding some restraints,” while warning that monopolies “hurt…the general interest of the country.”* Community-Benevolence: Rooted in moral sentiments, Smith believed in a shared commitment to community, where “many reputable rules…must have been laid down and approved of by common consent.”Smith's main usury critic was the philosopher Jeremy Bentham, known for developing the philosophy of utilitarianism. A letter written to Smith in 1787 stated:“Should it be my fortune to gain any advantage over you, it must be with weapons which you have taught me to wield, and with which you yourself have furnished me…I can see scarce any other way of convicting you of any error or oversight, than by judging you out of your own mouth.”Bentham is most famous for the idea of “maximizing the greatest happiness for the greatest number” which helped promote legal reforms and social progress including welfare, equal rights for women, the separation of church and state, and the decriminalization of homosexual acts. But his ultimate focus of utilitarianism was on the practical outcomes of policies going so far as to develop mathematical formulas, called felicific calculus, to determine how much pleasure or pain must be inflicted in society to achieve the most happiness for the greatest number.He was also a staunch economic expansionist, believing, as verified in his calculus, that it would expand good for most. It would be his student, John Stuart Mill, who expanded on but also critiqued Bentham's utilitarianism later in the mid 1800s.“I conceive Mr. Bentham's writings to have done and to be doing very serious evil. It is by such things that the more enthusiastic and generous minds are prejudiced against all his other speculations, and against the very attempt to make ethics and politics a subject of precise and philosophical thinking.”Mill too was an expansionist, but acknowledged utilitarian reasoning could be used to defend exploitive and immoral colonial practices, including slavery. Mill believed slavery "effectually brutifies the intellect" of both slave and the enslaver and condemned the notion that certain races were inherently inferior and required subjugation.Nevertheless, early colonizers and imperialists, as well as modern day neo-liberals weaponized elements of utilitarianism much like they did with The Wealth of Nations. They used (and continue to use) select elements to justify laissez-faire economics, deregulation, and the exploitation of labor, often prioritizing economic efficiency over moral considerations such as fairness and social equity.For example, Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan both used utilitarian logic believing their policies would maximize overall economic growth and prosperity, benefiting society as a whole, even at the expense of rising inequality and social welfare. Their consequentialist approach justified market-driven reforms for a perceived greater good. Given today's historic wealth imbalances, the result of that calculus is less than convincing.Bentham also failed to convince Smith in that fateful letter, but to many it marked a notable shift in economic thinking and philosophy. Smith passed away three years after his exchange with Bentham and theoretical mathematical utilitarianism became the ultimate measure of right and wrong in governance and ethics in the UK and the US. Smith's morality, which emphasized moral virtues guiding economic actions, lost out to consequentialisms focus solely on outcomes, often justifying exploitation and suffering if it maximized societal gain and economic expansion for the expansionists — despite John Stuart Mill's, and countless others, objections.ECONOMIC ENGINES IN MORAL MACHINESDuring Adam Smith's lifetime, the Industrial Age rapidly emerged, transforming economies and wealth structures. Technological advancements, like the steam engine, fueled industrial capitalism, driving unprecedented economic growth and wealth accumulation. This focus on efficiency relied on maximizing productivity, whether through steam-powered machines, the exploitation of enslaved people, the working poor, or the displacement of Indigenous populations, prioritizing economic gain over human well-being.In 1783, while Smith and Bentham were debating economic philosophy, James Watt was at the University of Glasgow, focused on regulating unchecked power —specifically the excessive speed of steam engines which he helped to invent. To prevent mechanical failures from fluctuating steam pressure, Watt invented the centrifugal governor. This device used weighted iron balls that spun outward with centrifugal force as the engine's speed increased, raising a spindle that adjusted a valve to control steam flow. By automatically reducing steam when the engine ran too fast and increasing it when it slowed, the governor ensured safe and efficient operation. Watt's invention, introduced in 1788, was in full production by 1790, paving the way for innovations like the first steam locomotive in 1804.Watt's governor symbolized the need to impose limits on unchecked mechanical power, ensuring the engine operated within safe and efficient parameters. This technological innovation mirrored a broader theme of the Industrial Revolution — the balance between harnessing new, powerful technologies for economic growth while recognizing the risks of unregulated force, whether in machines or the rapid, unrestrained accumulation of wealth and resources in society. Watt's governor was an early acknowledgment that unchecked power, whether mechanical or economic, could lead to instability and disaster."I am never content until I have constructed a mechanical model of the subject I am studying. If I succeed in making one, I understand. Otherwise, I do not." – Lord KelvinOur brains also act as a kind of governor on the unchecked power of our kidneys, just as moral feedback loops serve as a governor on unchecked economic ambition. Like the stretch receptors in our bladder sensing when fluid volume builds, moral reasoning, as Smith envisioned, detects the social and ethical consequences of unfettered economic expansion. These signals, akin to the centrifugal force moving the governor's spindle, prompt individuals and society to regulate their actions, guiding decisions based not only on self-interest but on moral duty.In contrast, Bentham's utilitarian calculus, much like a theoretical mathematical model divorced from natural systems, ignores these ethical feedback loops. By relying solely on abstract calculations of happiness and efficiency, Bentham's approach, like a machine operating without awareness of its environment, risks distorting human and social behaviors. Where Smith's model calls for moral constraints on economic behavior, much like the body's signals to prevent overstretching, Bentham's framework lacks the necessary human safeguards, leading to potential exploitation and imbalance in pursuit of theoretical utility maximization.I do wonder what our economic systems would look like if, like our bodies, they were designed to self-regulate, ensuring that the pursuit of wealth doesn't come at the expense of human well-being? Just as our bodily functions rely on natural feedback loops to maintain equilibrium, why have we allowed our economies to run unchecked, often leading to exploitation and inequality? Adam Smith believed in moral constraints on ambition, yet today, much of our economic thinking prioritizes growth without those safeguards.As walked off campus that day, I reflected on Watt's governor regulating the steam engine and the moral feedback loops Smith envisioned. I wondered if Smith and Watt made the metaphoric connection in their encounters with one another, maybe even on their way to relieve themselves in the very building in which I found myself. Perhaps they each happened on this connection in their own thought experiments, which makes me wonder why more don't today? Surely there's a morally sound way to balance personal gain with the greater good — a bit like public restrooms. This is a public episode.

Laurie Taylor talks to Becca Voelcker, Lecturer in the Art Department at Goldsmiths, University of London, about her research into the relationship between sight and power. Everyday life is full of moments where we are seen, often without our knowledge, even in the virtual world, where cookie trails and analytics make us visible to profit making companies. Going back in time, Jeremy Bentham's panopticon depended on seeing its occupants to control them. If we cannot control who sees us today are we also being controlled? How does that square with the many moments when being seen is also a means of social recognition?Also, David Lyon, Professor Emeritus of Sociology and Law at Queen's University, Kingston, Ontario explores the surveillance which permeates all aspects of our lives today. Every click on the keyboard, every contact with a doctor or the police, each time we walk under a video camera or pass through a security check we are identified, traced, and tracked. So how does surveillance make people visible, how did it grow to its present size and prevalence, and what are the social and personal costs?Producer: Jayne Egerton

David begins his examination of what he considers the two predominate views among Christians on law and politics, those he calls the neo-Covenanters and neo-Baptists, with how he realized he read the Bible like the legal positivist, Jeremy Bentham, and why reading the Bible that way is gnostic, not Christian. Is being a heretic easier than ever before? The answer may surprise you.

Les moulins à discipline, ou "treadwheels," étaient des dispositifs utilisés dans les prisons anglaises du XIXe siècle comme méthode de punition et de réhabilitation des détenus. Appelés "treadwheels," en an glais elles servaient de punition et au travail forcé des détenus. Ces appareils consistaient en une grande roue que les prisonniers devaient faire tourner en marchant ou en grimpant sur des barreaux, un effort physique intense et épuisant. 1. Discipline et Punition- Contrôle de la population carcérale : Les moulins à discipline étaient utilisés pour imposer une routine stricte et une discipline rigoureuse. Le travail monotone et épuisant servait de moyen de punir les détenus tout en les empêchant de comploter ou de causer des troubles.- Dissuasion : L'épuisement physique associé à l'utilisation des moulins décourageait les comportements indisciplinés parmi les prisonniers.2. Réhabilitation par le Travail- Habitude du travail : On croyait que le travail forcé pouvait inculquer une éthique de travail aux détenus, aidant à leur réhabilitation et à leur réintégration dans la société après leur libération.- Réforme morale : Le travail pénible était vu comme un moyen de réformer moralement les détenus, en les éloignant des habitudes oisives et criminelles.3. Utilisation de l'énergie mécanique- Production d'énergie : En plus de ses fonctions disciplinaires, le treadwheel était parfois utilisé pour générer de l'énergie mécanique pour des tâches telles que le pompage de l'eau ou le broyage de grain. Cependant, cet usage pratique était souvent secondaire par rapport à l'objectif disciplinaire.4. Développement des Pratiques Pénitentiaires- Influence des Réformateurs : Les réformateurs pénitentiaires du XIXe siècle, comme Jeremy Bentham, prônaient l'utilisation du travail forcé comme moyen de réhabilitation. Le treadwheel s'inscrivait dans cette philosophie, combinant punition et utilité économique.En résumé, les moulins à discipline étaient installés dans les prisons du XIXe siècle pour imposer la discipline, réformer les détenus par le travail et parfois pour des usages utilitaires. Bien que leur utilisation ait souvent été critiquée pour ses conditions inhumaines, ils représentent une période de l'histoire pénitentiaire où la punition et la réhabilitation étaient étroitement liées.

Common law authority William Blackstone said that man “must in all points conform to the will of his nature,” and this will was called the “natural law.” Today, David explains how he overlooked the most fundamental law of human nature because he read the Bible like a disciple of legal positivist Jeremy Bentham. From his experience, David offers a proposition about the state of evangelicalism in America.

Rerun: Before the Ballot Act of 18th July, 1872, the British electorate were expected to declare their preferred candidate publicly at hustings, often under pressure from their employers and landlords, and plied with alcohol supplied by the politicians standing for election, in a process known as ‘soaking'. Over the years, alternatives had been put forward - including Jeremy Bentham's concept of 1818, which involved a multitude of secret boxes with viewing windows - before the modern idea of private booths and a ballot box came to the fore.  In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and OIly explain why many voters saw secret ballots as sneaky and cowardly; explain how Australia beat Britain when it came to instituting voting in secret; and discover the teething problems experienced when Pontefract became the first town to test out the new process… Further Reading: • ‘Britain's first secret ballot' (BBC News, 2015): https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-31630588 • ‘Rhodri Marsden's Interesting Objects: Pontefract's secret ballot box' (The Independent, 2015): https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/rhodri-marsden-s-interesting-objects-pontefract-s-secret-ballot-box-a114506.html • ‘What was the Secret Ballot? | The Ballot Act 1872' (Royal Holloway University London, 2020): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9M8Lix4FgUM Learn more about your ad choices.

This episode will be exploring Utilitarianism's Principles, Criticisms, and Contemporary Perspectives.Utilitarianism is a moral theory that suggests the rightness or wrongness of an action is determined by its consequences, specifically by the amount of happiness or pleasure it produces. This theory traces its origins to the works of Jeremy Bentham and John Stuart Mill, who developed and popularized utilitarian thought in the 19th century.Jeremy Bentham, in his book "An Introduction to the Principles of Morals and Legislation," laid out the basic principles of utilitarianism. He argued that the goal of ethics should be to maximize happiness or pleasure and minimize suffering or pain for the greatest number of people. This concept of "the greatest happiness principle" forms the foundation of utilitarianism.

The final, final (no really) installment in our series on socialism looks narrowly at the period between World War One and the Russian Revolution to identify factors that contributed to the Bolshevik departure from Marxist theory and how nationalism squashed any hope for an internationalist movement. We revisit the words of the theorists and activists we covered in the series from Jeremy Bentham to Eugene Debs and raise difficult questions about the future of socialist activity in the United States specifically and whether new ideas are required to battle the ravages of capitalism.

Today we talk about Jeremy Bentham's concept of the Panopticon. Michel Foucault's comparison to society in 1975. The historical role of intelligence as a justification for dominance. The anatomy of free will, and how a digital world may systematically limit our free will without us knowing it.    Thank you to the sponsors of this episode:  LMNT - www.drinkLMNT.com/PHILO Better Help - www.betterhelp.com/PHILTHIS   Get more: Website: https://www.philosophizethis.org/ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/philosophizethis Philosophize This!
