bc1qfk03xf3zekand03r6xut652mq049duj7yhw3rt Date: November 10th, 2026 5:45 PM Author: The Penis Not Solved yet actually but I wrote this down earlier and thought it sounded Smart. I haven’t loaded the thing into my Harness yet:
Action is a temporally extended process in which an organized system regulates its interventions in an environment according to an objective, using information about the consequences of those interventions to select and revise its behavior. |

bc1qfk03xf3zekand03r6xut652mq049duj7yhw3rt Date: November 10th, 2026 5:54 PM Author: The Penis My theory is more General. Most theories of action start with the psychology of human agency and then treat that psychology as constitutive of action itself. I think this is a Mistake. A bacterium navigating a chemical gradient performs Actions. My Harness performs actions that affect my computer too. I think Action is broader than arising from human psychological states. Davidsonian action is just a Special Case of regulated action (https://autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5921118&forum_id=2#50248707) |

I don't think those things you describe are Actions in the relevant sense. (https://autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5921118&forum_id=2#50248712) |

bc1qfk03xf3zekand03r6xut652mq049duj7yhw3rt Date: November 10th, 2026 5:59 PM Author: The Penis Beliefs, desires, and intentions may be mechanisms through which certain systems perform actions, but I don’t see why they must be necessary conditions for action. You can’t just assume that.
I would distinguish action generally from the narrower category of intentional, reason guided human action. Why should we assume mental states are constitutive of action and not just one way of realizing a more general structure of agency? |

bc1qfk03xf3zekand03r6xut652mq049duj7yhw3rt Date: November 10th, 2026 6:06 PM Author: The Penis A stipulative definition cannot, by itself, establish that intentional states are metaphysically necessary for action. My agentic HARNESS selects interventions, executes them, evaluates their consequences, and revises its behavior according to feedback and objectives. That’s a causally organized process with properties that distinguish it from arbitrary events, making it Action under the stipulated definition of My Framework.
It’s a definition dude. Not Settled Metaphysics. |

bc1qfk03xf3zekand03r6xut652mq049duj7yhw3rt Date: November 10th, 2026 6:11 PM Author: The Penis The physical substrate of a process doesn't, by itself, determine whether that process constitutes an action. That’s not Settled Metaphysics. Human actions are also physically realized through electrochemical activity, neural signaling, and muscular contractions. Describing those processes at the physical level doesn't establish that they are merely events. It doesn’t Solve the Metaphysics.
