Great.
So that was actually all the lectures related to the ongoing Research Triangle, where I'm going to
do now is to do a summary of the whole triangle, and then we're going to rush into some more kind of
analysis and case studies of actual concrete cases in in from from my experience and from other types
of businesses were this actually pays quite a big role.
So I'm going to take it from this very theoretical level to become much more and more and more and more
practical.
So the triangle in a new light, trying to get everything together.
So we have this triangle, we talk about it now a number of times we started talking about the upper
corner, the concepts and the philosophy of mind part.
Then we talked about language and philosophy language, and now we talked about metaphysics and the
world, so to speak, and object, in fact, and so on.
So to start with this, we take for granted that they are concrete objects and state of affairs that
actually exist out in the world.
Right.
OK, then we have concepts about those objects, about these objects, and we actually then form intentional
states based on those concepts.
So I think that is the say, for example, I think that the tree is in front of me.
Right.
That's a belief of mine.
Then we use language and science in the language, of course, that represents the objects and the concepts.
So we had we said that we had terms and names and so on, the reference, both existing objects out
there and things in our minds.
And we create connections between those.
And we could express that using our language.
That's the one we have got from the from the first corner of objects back to language.
Right.
But what happens then is very interesting.
Then we actually make what is called declaration, something we cannot use without the language.
And I'm saying language doesn't have to be a spoken language.
Of course, it could be any type of language, but we need to have some type of a language to do declarations.
And we in by using declarations, we actually create both new concepts and we assign we create assignments
of those concepts on two objects.
So we then have those new status functions which are collectively recognized by people around us and
accepted as existing.
So when we do that, then we actually create new objects out in the world so that we can go back again.
So this is a constant back and forward or actually a circle maybe around this triangle all the time.
So there is actually not three disparate different areas of philosophy here.
Everything is very, very tied up together.
And I think this is very interesting.
This is how we can see how important language is in creating our social reality and social reality.
I include all types of system building activities, for example, any type of programming, any type
of systems you create, any type of businesses you create and type of products include.
This is a very essential part.
And when it's very often done very implicitly and then you can run into a lot of problems that you might
not even have the tools or you might not even understand that you have the problem.
And what this course is about is to make those problems explicit and help you around how actually to
overcome them.
So so far, we have come to this in our meta analysis that we're doing right now.
So we talked about intentional states, which are psychological Môn and propositions.
We talked about speech, Aguadilla, illusionary force and statements, talked about the connection
between propositions and statements, and that intentional states is related to a network of other intentional
states and related to background abilities.
We talked about predicates and references that could refer to concepts or objects, and we talked about
different types of facts.
So what we now included in this last corner is that we have said that there are actually different types
of concepts here, like properties are concepts in one way as well, and objects exemplify different
properties.
We've talked about functions, which is a type of concept as well, which could be imposed on object.
We know this is just a subset of all the concepts are out there, of course, but these are special
accounts that we have mentioned.
We have said that the proposition is actually having a truth made in the fact we have said that are
kind of brute facts, that's the fact that the stone is in front of me.
And then we have institutional facts which are created using declarations.
So these are a couple of important new connections that have been made to this conceptual map.
Good.
That was the end of this lecture.
Now we're going to go into what are called lessons learned.
So now I'm going to do some analysis using our new gained knowledge.
See you there.
