- by Jeremy Horne, Ph.D.Journal of Systemics, Cybernetics and Informatics, Vol. 23, No. 4 (2025) written by Jeremy Horne, Ph.D. based on the work of John Voris (Authentic Systems). Education, research, and methodologies form an organic unit that is the essence of human identity. Education is the object (which also is a process); research is the domain of process […]
- by Jeremy Horne, Ph.D.Springer Nature Link, Conference Paper, Oct. 2025 written by Jeremy Horne, Ph.D. and José David Alanis Urquieta based on the work of John Voris (Authentic Systems). In this paper, we raise philosophical questions that artificial intelligence developers should ask about believing who we are and who we actually are (authentic identity). The very words “artificial” […]
- by Jeremy Horne, Ph.D.Journal of NeuroPhilosophy, Vol. 4, No. 2 (2025) written by Jeremy Horne Ph.D. based on the work of John Voris (Authentic Systems). Personal identity is arguably the most critical aspect of human existence. A failure to understand who we are—as expressed in the ancient injunction “Know thyself”—or the presence of fragmented or conflicted identities can […]
- by Jeremy Horne, Ph.D.Systemics, Cybernetics and Informatics, Vol. 23, No. 1 (2025) written by Jeremy Horne Ph.D. based on the work of John Voris (Authentic Systems). Wikipedia on “education” raises the process-product debate, the tension between epistemic content and practical skills, and the role of experience. “Education” is often treated as a “that”—an object or a process—or as […]
- by Jeremy Horne, Ph.D.Social Science Research Network (SSRN), (2025) written by Jeremy Horne Ph.D. based on the work of John Voris (Authentic Systems). In this paper, we raise philosophical questions that artificial intelligence developers should ask about believing who we are and who we actually are (authentic identity). The very words “artificial” and “intelligence” implore an examination of […]
- by Jeremy Horne, Ph.D.Social Science Research Network (SSRN) (2024) written by Jeremy Horne Ph.D. based on the work of John Voris (Authentic Systems). Identity location occurs by reductionism (such as neurocorrelation and DNA) or wholism (qualitative methods like phenomenology). Regardless, philosophy underpins finding and characterizing one’s identity. Metaphysical barriers prevent “absolute” discovery, and we are forced to bootstrap […]
- by Jeremy Horne, Ph.D.Social Science Research Network (SSRN) (2024) written by Jeremy Horne Ph.D. based on the work of John Voris (Authentic Systems). Philosophers and psychologists now can join hands with neuroanatomists to solve the vexing problem of personal identity. Personal identity can be located in a person, described specifically, is stable, and is deeply structured (genetically and […]
- by Jeremy Horne, Ph.D.Systemics, Cybernetics and Informatics, Vol. 22, No. 7 (2024) written by Jeremy Horne Ph.D. based on the work of John Voris (Authentic Systems). Fractured personal identities contribute to conflict and corruption, underscoring the significance of comprehending identity, its expression, and its societal context. Identity encompasses existence, fundamental values, and purpose, ranging from the highly structured […]
- by Jeremy Horne, Ph.D.Systemics, Cybernetics and Informatics, Vol. 22, No. 7 (2024) written by Jeremy Horne Ph.D. based on the work of John Voris (Authentic Systems). We use the word “education,” often conflated with “training,” when both more accurately fall under the broader category of “schooling.” Education exists because of training and, conversely, obeys the most fundamental law—the […]
- by Jeremy Horne, Ph.D.Social Science Research Network (SSRN) (2024) written by Jeremy Horne Ph.D. based on the work of John Voris (Authentic Systems). People wanting to know who they are and whether or why their life’s activities do not match what they feel look to “personality tests”. However, a test, with its “correct” or “incorrect” responses fail to […]
