Um... I don't follow this at all. Where do I anthropomorphize? I think that the concept of 'knowledge' would be pretty universal.
Hrm. Maybe I'm reading you wrong? I thought you were making a commonly made argument that any belief we arrive at, the artificial intelligence would as well. And my response was that because the AI is running different mental machinery, it is entirely possible that there are beliefs we arrive at which the AI just doesn't consider and vice versa. Were you saying something different?
You, quite rightly, criticized the notion that an AI would have just as much of an epistemic advantage on humans that we would have on a cow. Any correct notions we have are just that- correct. It's not like there's more truth to them that a godlike intelligence could know.
