Philosophers guided me through hopelessly quixotic questions with honesty and precision. Thinkers like Nietzsche and Kierkegaard shared passionate writings on how to live with shortcomings one did not choose. I was moved by their painstaking efforts to inspire the discouraged. Then amidst my voracious but haphazard readings, I came across an ancient Greek word, the philosophical concept of "aletheia," which encapsulates my affinity for Philosophy.

And over time, such standard for machines has slowly spread and influenced our standard of whether certain degree of error is acceptable. At first, machines were introduced to do things that we were not capable of doing in a given amount of time. And perhaps, to complement our ability to overcome blunders we commit. Now it seems like even things we can do are left for machines to do. Sure they can do it faster and possibly more perfectly; and it probably is a good thing. But the problem is not their taking over what we can do. The problem is that their perfectness (error-free performance) has ...
