RE: Moral Nihilism

All I am saying is that if we have free will, then so does a chess computer AI that has the ability to learn to play different opponents based on feedback from playing those different opponents. It makes "choices" too.

These questions are for everyone: Do you think that a learning chess computer AI has "free will?" If not, why not? Do animals have free will? Does free will require sentience? Does free will require life? What is sentience? What is life? What makes humans so special? Is it a soul? How is it possible to believe in "free will" without engaging in a bit of "magical thinking?" What is your definition of free will and who or what has it?
