>>14391224The creatus isn't so much 'seeing' phenomena, or ever really 'doing' anything at all, in the sense that you would use such a term when discussing dasein. It is running algorithms based on certain inputs (such as photoelectric signal generation) whose outputs are just coincidentally connected with servoactions that coincidentally overlap with actions the designer wants, but the thing itself isn't 'wanting' to do anything.
Which is to say, an evolved being driving a car usually has a certain range of desire-drives: the desire to get to somewhere in particular, the desire to not crash and get splattered over the windscreen, et cetera et cetera - the desires can be observed from how when the being encounters unexpected situations, it engages in emergent behaviors in accordance with those desires. When an algorithmic system on the other hand is placed in a situation outside of the operating envelope optimized by it's designer, it simply goes blooey; the lack of desire is observed in the fact that it doesn't 'care' if it goes blooey, it simply follows the algorithm(s) regardless.
Differences in capacity for world-formation constitute a chief differentiating quality between dasein and other kinds of beings.
