WEBVTT 00:09.880 --> 00:11.830 Right back again. 00:12.340 --> 00:17.010 So now we're going to talk about the collective intention of this, we talked about intentionality. 00:17.020 --> 00:19.540 We talked about the network of intentional states. 00:19.550 --> 00:22.300 We talked about the background, but it doesn't stop there, actually. 00:24.190 --> 00:31.600 So there is a very important thing here called collective intentionality that emerges when we have intentional 00:31.600 --> 00:35.920 states, intentional states about other people's intentional states, basically. 00:37.090 --> 00:39.540 So what is collective intentionality? 00:40.810 --> 00:45.340 So in coordination with others, we create the possibility of a collection intentionality. 00:45.340 --> 00:52.960 And it's emerges as a result of multiple people like Scott declaring, for example, having intentional 00:52.960 --> 00:53.550 states. 00:53.590 --> 00:58.100 So Scott thinks that what he's looking at is, is money. 00:58.150 --> 00:58.960 So this is money. 00:58.960 --> 01:02.170 That's the propositional content in this intentional stage was his belief. 01:02.500 --> 01:04.890 And Claire also have a belief about that. 01:04.900 --> 01:05.560 This is money. 01:05.860 --> 01:06.240 Right. 01:06.910 --> 01:13.320 But those multiple people, also her mutal intentional beliefs about each other, intentional states. 01:13.480 --> 01:20.590 So they do not only have this proposition, this intentional state with that propositional content, 01:20.950 --> 01:26.960 they also actually have an intentional state about each other's intentional state. 01:27.220 --> 01:36.790 So Scott has an intentional state that Claire believes that it's money and Claire also have an intentional 01:36.790 --> 01:39.250 state, that Scott believes that this is money. 01:40.390 --> 01:49.330 And then we start getting what is called collective intentionality because that would regulate how we 01:49.750 --> 01:51.820 think about what other people think. 01:53.560 --> 01:57.380 So then we get something that is called kind of the multiplier effect here. 01:57.430 --> 02:02.650 So if you think about any type of system, it doesn't have to be an I.T. system, could be a business 02:02.650 --> 02:12.760 as a system, could be a legal system or any type of system that will never exist outside our collective 02:12.760 --> 02:13.650 intentionality. 02:13.750 --> 02:19.840 So systems actually exist because we think they exist and they exist because I think that they exist. 02:19.840 --> 02:23.200 And you think that they exist and I think that you think that they exist and so on. 02:25.510 --> 02:28.700 So they exist in our collective intentionality. 02:30.430 --> 02:34.090 So, for example, I think that this is a system, right? 02:35.470 --> 02:42.190 And those people also think that this is a system, but that's not enough to form the collective intentionality. 02:42.760 --> 02:49.390 I also think that you and you and you think that this is a system and other person thinks the same and 02:49.390 --> 02:50.840 the third and fourth as well. 02:51.400 --> 02:54.880 And then on top of that, this will be a recursion as well. 02:54.910 --> 03:00.240 I, of course, think I think that you think that I think that this is a system and so on and so on 03:00.240 --> 03:00.700 and so on. 03:01.570 --> 03:07.270 So this phenomena is something called collective international that has been described by many people. 03:07.480 --> 03:13.840 John Soros one, also Steven Pinker, who actually done an RSA. 03:13.840 --> 03:18.730 You can look up on the Internet, on YouTube, YouTube about this, which is very powerful and very 03:18.730 --> 03:19.030 good. 03:19.480 --> 03:20.730 So look that up as well. 03:20.740 --> 03:26.520 Also talking about the importance of collective intentionality in all types of areas in society. 03:27.220 --> 03:33.760 But one very important one is that this is the way that we form any type of institutional facts. 03:33.760 --> 03:36.700 And we'll come back to that later because it's very, very important. 03:37.450 --> 03:43.600 So, for example, I think that this is money and you think that this is money and the third person 03:43.600 --> 03:45.010 think that this is money and so on. 03:45.160 --> 03:47.230 And I think that you think that this is money. 03:47.470 --> 03:50.140 And he thinks that she thinks that that is money and so on. 03:51.760 --> 03:59.020 It's just when we have those thoughts about other people's intentional states, then the money, the 03:59.020 --> 04:00.700 phenomenal money actually arises. 04:01.300 --> 04:10.300 There will be no money if we don't think this so we can create money internally in one room and define 04:10.300 --> 04:13.560 that this is money within this context of this one room. 04:13.960 --> 04:20.140 But if we stop things that then those money will not be will not have any value anymore. 04:20.890 --> 04:24.670 So they only have value as money as long as we think about them as money. 04:25.840 --> 04:31.450 And that's the extremely important power of collective intentionality. 04:31.450 --> 04:33.500 And that's how we're building institutional facts. 04:33.530 --> 04:36.860 We'll come back to that to that later on in the analysis. 04:38.530 --> 04:38.850 Good. 04:39.580 --> 04:42.720 That was the end of this lecture about collective intentionality. 04:42.760 --> 04:48.460 So now we're actually going to do a wrap up of the whole first corner in the organ and Rich's triangle. 04:49.420 --> 04:53.230 So come back to that and then we'll go into the next one, which is language.
