  • Unfinished Rituals: The Double-edged Sword of Digital Afterlives

    Sherman Xie•ARTICLE•Filosofija. Sociologija•2026

    This study aims to reveal the impact of AI resurrection on the mental health of bereaved relatives. The study primarily employs qualitative research and case analysis methodologies.AI resurrection has a significant dual impact on the mental health of bereaved relatives. On the positive side, AI resurrection can provide an immediate emotional comfort (such as alleviating acute grief and making up for the regret of unspoken goodbyes), assist in psy…

  • Autopoietic Quantum Systems: Self‐Reference Avoidance as State Selection Mechanism

    Open Access•Sherman Xie•ARTICLE•Systems Research and Behavioral…•2026

    Because the validity of mathematics is premised on self‐reference avoidance, the validity or authenticity of the physical world must also be based on self‐reference avoidance. Based on this belief, this article explores the fundamental question of whether the collapse of the wave function is triggered by consciousness from the perspective of self‐reference avoidance. This article analyzes and points out that the real physical world (i.e., quantum…

  • Why AI Resurrection (/Immortality) Is Becoming Increasingly Popular

    Open Access•Sherman Xie•ARTICLE•OMEGA - Journal of Death and Dying•2026

    Driven by multiple factors, including technology, AI resurrection (or immortality) is moving from an edge experiment to a normalized tool for life narratives. From many practical cases, it can be seen that, in terms of mourning forms alone, AI resurrection (or digital immortality) is a self-deceptive psychological comfort that all relevant parties are aware of. However, cases related to AI resurrection (/immortality) are still increasing, and the…

  • Artificial Intelligence will not Replace Humans but Could Destroy Them

    Open Access•Sherman Xie•ARTICLE•Filosofija. Sociologija•2025

    In the current race to develop general-purpose artificial intelligence (AI), there is a growing trend to overlook safety and ethical considerations. As general-purpose AI evolves, especially if it advances into a new species, will it compete with and eventually replace humans? This article argues that AI is merely a small technical domain within the broader human automation technology system and therefore cannot replace humans. However, due to it…

  • The Three Elements Involved in Causality and Their Correspondence

    Open Access•Sherman Xie•ARTICLE•Filosofija. Sociologija•2025

    Causality is the most basic connection, rule, logic and fact of the phenomenal world, so finding the causal connection between things and utilising it to achieve the goal of avoiding harm and ultimately attaining happiness are the fundamental motivation for all human intellectual activities. This paper first points out that any causal inference in any field can and should be analysed from three dimensions: cause, condition and result. And then it…

  • Are humans (higher) animals? On the rational awakening and life transcendence of death cognition

    Open Access•Sherman Xie•ARTICLE•Acta Psychologica•2025

    This article delves into the fundamental cognitive question of whether humans are (superior) animals from a utilitarian perspective. Modern biology classifies humans as animals, yet nearly all religious doctrines assert a distinctiveness of humans from animals. Humans, as higher animals, indeed possess a certain degree of rationality and intelligence compared to other lower animals. However, the innate ignorance of humans has not transcended that…

  • The Meaning of Causality and the Premise and Root of Its Existence

    Open Access•Sherman Xie•ARTICLE•Filosofija. Sociologija•2024

    This article aims to understand the most fundamental operating principles of the phenomenal world and figure out how phenomena within the phenomenal world are interconnected. Causality is the most basic connection, rule, logic and fact of the phenomenal world, since everything in the phenomenal world is originally in the interconnection of three elements: cause, condition and effect. Finding the causal connection between things and utilising it t…

  • The Next Global Economic & Financial Crisis is Just Around the Corner

    Sherman Xie•ARTICLE•Forum for Social Economics•2019

    The core essence of the economic/financial crisis is the imbalance between desire and ability. There is a causal relationship among the contradiction between desire and ability, the imbalance between supply and demand, the formation and accumulation of material wealth and value wealth, and the economic/financial crisis. Since the imbalance between desire and ability is inherent, so is the contradiction between supply and demand. Apart from unconv…
