What we are referring to is the same philosophical principle and the same Kant's Critique of Pure Reason.Fairy wrote: ↑Mon Nov 25, 2024 8:46 pm Imagine 10 artists, namely people, who are each looking at the same ocean landscape, who all decide to recreate it through a painting of what already exists prior to being copied.
Resulting in 10 completely different copies of the same one landscape that everyone was looking at, everyone was seeing the exact same landscape. Ironic then that everyone was seeing the same one landscape; and yet every artistic recreation of that landscape appeared different.
This thought experiment is testable of course and can be seen to be true. The landscape that everyone was seeing was an art that was natural and yet was able to be recreated as an art that was artificial.
So that’s where inconsistencies come into play. In other words what is natural never repeats exactly, and that’s where A.I. comes into play. In other words there is no copy of natural reality; except as an artificially created copy; which is an inaccurate untrue representation of what is only ever a true presentation without copyright, or author.
1. Indirect realism is broadly equivalent to the scientific view of perception that subjects do not experience the external world as it really is, but perceive it through the lens of a conceptual framework.

2. For the same thing as highlighted above "the external world as it really is" Kant used the term noumenon, i.e.
A noumenon is an object or event that exists independently of human perception and the senses. The term is often used in contrast to the term "phenomenon," which refers to objects as they appear to the senses. [Google Search AI]
However Atla insisted what is claimed as the external world as it really is in indirect realism is not the same as Kant's noumenon.
He got ChatGpt [to Atla] to confirm his view that indirect realism has nothing to do with the noumenon.
However, in ChatGpt [to me] agree with me that the noumenon is what indirect realism is targeting at the mind-independent external reality/thing.
ChatGpt [to me] explained Atla did not give the nuanced prompt to Chatgpt, that is why its response is limited and different.
