“consider a chain causal model where X→Y→Z, and where we want to infer the state of variable Z. The Markov condition states that if the state of Y is known, then the state of X should be irrelevant for estimating the likelihood of Z. The Markov condition is a necessary assumption of any causally sufficient system. If humans are Bayesian reasoners, they should respect this condition.”

That's all your technology does, and that's your dream. Yet, without uncertainty what will become of you? A zombie, a predictable robot, a machine, that is what you'll become in the end were not because we are here, frustrating each and every of your predictions. Hate us if that makes you feel better.”

“The age you are living in very often resembles the substitution of what has already been. But to make the substitute effective, in reality, it is necessary that everything loses its essence and becomes a new subject. It does, however, the function, and the feature of a true subject only in appearance. The problem lies in the fact that the loss of essence becomes everywhere apparent. It is not difficult to imagine totalitarianism without essence.”
