what do you mean?

@@HistoryandPhilosophyAI There is zero historical evidence for the bulk of this, is what I mean.

@@James-ll3jb can you give me an example of anything you dispute? It's important that we are factually accurate.

@@HistoryandPhilosophyAI I think you'd do well to cite whatvancient historical sources you can find for the various accolades you attribute her with--if you can find them.

Because generally no one knows who Al Biruni is in the west, so the comparison would be meaningless.

@@HistoryandPhilosophyAI I am not talking of the person on street. It's about the Western scholars.

Thank you for your kind words!

Some human effort for sure but not possible without AI!

Thank you for your interest!! I'm trying to shine light on things which people don't know at all about. This video is meant to be a primer and if there is interest I will make deeper videos on the topic!

your brain might be.

She was of Greek descent DumbDumb.

I think it is. Considering what they would’ve done to her

nope

It's an interesting point you raise. While it's true that we all face mortality, the pursuit of wisdom, as Aristotle suggests, can greatly enrich our lives. Knowing oneself is not just about self-awareness, but also about understanding our place in the world, our interactions with others, and our personal growth. This journey towards wisdom can lead to a more fulfilling, meaningful life, despite its inevitable end. The quest for understanding and self-knowledge can bring clarity, purpose, and a sense of peace, which are valuable in their own right, regardless of life's impermanence.

@@HistoryandPhilosophyAI It just seems like a nice thing to have but in the long run it’s going to be useless. By the way is there only one definition of wisdom…? Can wisdom clash?

@Charcmode ​Your points raise some thought-provoking questions. The utility of wisdom, especially in the long run, might not always be immediately apparent, but it often plays a crucial role in guiding decisions, fostering understanding, and navigating life's complexities. Wisdom isn't just about knowledge; it's also about the application of that knowledge in a meaningful, ethical, and often pragmatic way. Regarding your question about the definition of wisdom, it's indeed a concept that varies across cultures, philosophies, and individual perspectives. There isn't a single, universal definition of wisdom. Different philosophical traditions emphasize various aspects - for instance, practical problem-solving, ethical understanding, self-awareness, or even spiritual insight. Can wisdom clash? Absolutely. What one person or culture considers wise may differ significantly from another's view. These clashes can lead to debates, ethical dilemmas, and even conflicts. However, they also offer opportunities for deeper understanding and growth, encouraging us to look beyond our perspectives and consider other viewpoints. Wisdom, in its many forms, challenges us to think, reflect, and grow

@@HistoryandPhilosophyAI Thank you for your lengthy and substantial answer. Why does wisdom even exist? And who judges which wisdom is the right wisdom?

Thank you for bringing up that point. Winston Churchill's role in the Gallipoli campaign during World War I is indeed a significant and controversial part of his legacy. The campaign resulted in substantial loss of life and Churchill faced intense criticism for his part in it, leading some to refer to him as the 'Butcher of Gallipoli.' It's crucial to acknowledge these complex and somber aspects of historical figures' legacies when discussing their contributions and quotes. Your comment adds an important perspective to the broader understanding of Churchill's impact on history.

Thank you for your input! I'm going to work on making longer videos!

Absolutely, Chief Joseph's quote 'It does not require many words to speak the truth' highlights the importance of clarity and honesty. Regarding your point about lengthy bills, it's worth noting that legal documents, including bills and laws, are complex by nature. They need to cover various scenarios and legal intricacies, which often results in lengthy texts. This is a characteristic of legislative processes in general, not specific to any one political party. It's a challenge of translating broad principles into detailed, actionable laws. Chief Joseph's message, while profound, speaks to a different context, reminding us of the power and value of simplicity and directness in our communication.

Hi there, thanks for your Input. It's important to put out high quality work. Can you elaborate please?

Indeed, the pursuit of knowledge, as Marie Curie's life exemplifies, often involves navigating uncharted and potentially dangerous territory. Her own research, which was groundbreaking in understanding radioactivity, also unknowingly exposed her to harmful radiation. This highlights the 'hidden dangers' you mentioned, which are sometimes an inherent part of scientific discovery. Yet, Curie's message and her life's work emphasize the importance of forging ahead in the face of fear and uncertainty. It's a reminder of the courage and resilience needed in scientific exploration, balanced with an awareness of the risks and ethical considerations involved. Her legacy teaches us not only about the triumphs of discovery but also about the responsibility that comes with it. Thank you for your comment!

too much of a good thing? :D

😄 True, Cleopatra was eventually defeated. But her statement 'I will not be triumphed over' is symbolic, especially considering 'triumph' in Rome meant a victory parade displaying defeated foes. She refused to be paraded in defeat, a dignity she maintained even in her end. So, in a way, she kept her word!

She also sold Egypt to or just gave it to the Roman's. She wasn't an Egyptian. Being born of Greek decent by the Potolimys she was just the lesser of two evils as her brother just wanted to enslave the Egyptians. She just dropped her care of Egypt and went to the winning side very "commendable"

Foucault's work indeed presents a unique perspective on 'rational ethics.' He critically examined how societal structures and power dynamics shape our understanding of ethics and rationality. Foucault often challenged the traditional notions of what is considered 'rational' or 'ethical,' urging us to question the underlying assumptions and power relations that define these concepts. His approach encourages a deeper, more critical engagement with the ideas of ethics and rationality in the context of societal norms and power. Your comment succinctly captures a key aspect of Foucault's critical thought.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I understand that AI-generated content can be a significant shift from traditional content creation methods, and it might not be everyone's preference. My aim with these videos is to explore new ways of presenting information and engaging with viewers. I believe AI has the potential to enhance content creation in unique ways, but I also recognize the importance of maintaining a human touch and connection with the audience. Your feedback is valuable, as it helps me balance the use of AI while ensuring that the content remains relatable and engaging. I'm always open to suggestions on how to improve and make my videos more enjoyable for all viewers!

Thanks for your comment! You're right, I did use an AI tool to assist in creating the content for the video. AI can be a great resource for gathering information and structuring content, especially on complex subjects like Nietzsche's philosophy. However, I always aim to infuse the final product with a personal touch and interpretation. It's a balancing act to use AI effectively while also ensuring that the content remains engaging and true to Nietzsche's spirited and profound ideas. I appreciate your feedback as it helps me refine the way I use these tools to better capture the essence of such philosophical discussions. Please let me know any specific recommendations.

@@HistoryandPhilosophyAI you can't distil a philosophers life works into a 2-minute video, they are rather short and vague

@darillus1 Thank you for your insightful comment. You raise an important point about the challenge of condensing the life and ideas of a philosopher into a brief video. The goal of these short videos is to provide an accessible introduction or overview, sparking interest in those who might be new to these philosophers (or historical figures) or their ideas. I agree that a two-minute format cannot capture the full depth and nuances of a philosopher's work and impact. These videos are meant as starting points, encouraging viewers to explore further and dive deeper into the subject matter. I appreciate your feedback, as it emphasizes the importance of balancing brevity with depth, and it’s something I continually strive to improve in my content creation.

@@HistoryandPhilosophyAI that's good to hear, hope to see some more deeper dives into these thinkers / historical figures, gives people more to chew on.

​@@darillus1It's meant to inspire a deeper dive, kid!😅
