Journal pyrrho's Journal: Beyond Good And Evil: aphorism 6 3
Philosophy doesn't really come from a "Will to Knowledge" (well, it may if it wants) but more generally it comes from many of the other drives in the human mind.
"Drives" are taken as distinct forces of influence in the mind (and by inclusion the body). According to Nietzsche many of the various "drives" has at one time or another philosophized, which is to say some philosopher has created a philosophic system while motivated by that drive.
A desire to go to war generates a philosophy for going to war. When considering a philosophy, inspect it's motivation.
Nietzsche's drives are personalities with somewhat individual goals and ambitions. I think programming for the mind probably does use "personality" as a fundamental datatype. A possible mapping to interpret Nietzsche as being a wetware programmer for the human mind does exist. And it's not far fetched... consider that philosophers have studied first order logic ever since Aristotle invented it. And this is the source of modern programings basic construct, the if-then, AND and OR.
A philologist such as Nietzsche by developing a logic of human thinking, might also inadvertently create a logic to express theories of AI. Ontologically, isn't all intelligence AI?
God as Material Being (Score:1)
The spirit is often thought of as energy, if it exists, and even if it's in some domain where we cannot yet detect (most of the EMF was undetected by us for most of human history, of course),
Motivation (Score:1)
I suspect that Nietzsche is fully aware of this suggestion and therefore intends us to ask this.
