Religious beliefs will be programmed just as they are in most
humans. Richard



What about non-religious beliefs in humans and robots. Are they
programmed or not?


Not, by and large. Most human non-religious beliefs are based on
experience. Most important is the belief that you can accomplish
what you plan or predict that you can do. Driving drunk is an
example. You predict that you are capable of driving and also believe
that you will not get caught. A better example of prediction and
control is downhill skiing. Recently a Swiss friend who grew up
skiing and believed he could handle any slope, ran into a tree and is
now a vegtable. Religious beliefs are much more abstract and less
life threatening for most of us. Richard


What about beliefs in some metaphysical entities like for example
superstrings? Or in multverse?

I have those beliefs. See http://yanniru.blogspot.com/2013/ and I do
not consider them life threatening. But the question is whether those
beliefs have been programmed.

I think not since the key features of my work are unique. Those
features are: a string theory comp machine based on Calabi-Yau compact
manifolds and the resulting number system having degrees completeness
based on universe size.

So I claim that (abstract) beliefs are not programmed if they are
based on independent experience and not something that you have read
or been told. For example I do not believe in the MWI multiverse based
on my work
referenced above.

However, the real question is whether a robot can create its own
beliefs beyond ones that are programmed. I say no problem. Already
robots are being designed to learn from experience. And they never
forget.

You have to forget to learn. Not forgetting is an handicapping disease (hypermnesia).
