---------------------
The number. The laws of numbers were invented on the basis of the initially
prevailing error that there are various identical things (but actually there
is nothing identical) or at least that there are things (but there is no "
thing"). The assumption of multiplicity always presumes that there is
something, which occurs repeatedly. But this is just where error rules; even
here, we invent entities, unities, that do not exist.
Our feelings of space and time are false, for if they are tested rigorously,
they lead to logical contradictions. Whenever we establish something
scientifically, we are inevitably always reckoning with some incorrect
quantities; but because these quantities are at least constant (as is, for
example, our feeling of time and space), the results of science do acquire a
perfect strictness and certainty in their relationship to each other. One
can continue to build upon them--up to that final analysis, where the
mistaken basic assumptions, those constant errors, come into contradiction
with the results, for example, in atomic theory. There we still feel
ourselves forced to assume a "thing" or a material "substratum" that is
moved, while the entire scientific procedure has pursued the task of
dissolving everything thing-like (material) into movements. Here, too, our
feeling distinguishes that which is moving from that which is moved, and we
do not come out of this circle, because the belief in things has been tied
up with our essential nature from time immemorial.22

符号或者数学这个东西，我觉得其实源于人类的死亡恐惧，或者对永恒的一种幻象。
因为死亡恐惧，所以亚里斯多德发明了在时间之外的存在。这就是符号或者形式。
既然形式／符号是在时间之外，那么当然就是永恒的。
形式就好比计算机里的类，对象都会死，有life cycle。
类不存在死亡问题。周星驰死了以后，狗这个种类还存在。
AI人民群众都喜闻乐见，我觉得其实就是因为general AI真的实现了，人类也就永恒了。
所以，我猜迟早会出现吃人的AI邪教。
