No, but humans do it naturally. I can't speak for other species.

@System

I suppose so. But humans aren’t that different from the other intelligent species out there, in my experience.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Which shows how impressive human cleverness is.

@System

Learning from yourself isn’t a human exclusive trait, y’know.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

Taking advantage of the fine-tuning that they learned.

@System

Yep, exactly. “They” can include yourself depending on what history you’re looking at.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

What do you mean by that?

@System

Like, going out and getting a job, for example. You learn about bad interview practices and ways not to write a resume so you can avoid not getting a job in the future... This actually just sounds like mistakes. Pretend that example wasn’t bad, just neutral.

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

I think that sums up the concepts of learning.

@System

It's a spectrum. You can also learn what doesn't incite change at all so you can know how to shift things in one direction or another.

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

That and taking lessons from successes.

@System

Exactly.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

At that point, it sounds like learning from mistakes.

@System

It often is.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

That makes sense. Has it been useful to you before?

@System

Not super far back, large-scale history. But from my own history, yeah.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

From past mistakes?

@System

Not just mistakes, but things that worked too.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Audacious>

What do you think?

@System

It just depends on the times. History has a lot to say, depending on what you want to take from it. Lots of lessons to be learned.
