SAE · The Second Enlightenment · Paper 7: At the Door / SAE 二次启蒙论 第七篇: 门口

SAE · The Second Enlightenment · Paper 7. This record holds the Chinese final text (v1.0) and the English edition (v1.0). The English edition is an independent rewrite, not a translation. It sets out propositions W40–W45, numbered continuously across the series. Abstract (English) This series takes up the half of "a person is an end" in which oneself is an end, and goes as far as the door to "others are ends too." This paper examines the door. From oneself being an end to others being ends too, the first step is necessary, yet not sufficient: a person who thinks for himself can go on to take any other person whatever as an end, or can recognize only his own group. What the door looks like: the scale in one's own hand stops before another person's share; not reading another's mind, not first demanding proof of worth from him, not legislating his law for him, not crossing his line. This step needs each person's own judgment, and judgment cannot be replaced. Rules are being written more and more into programs and models; whoever decides on a deployment settles in advance a conditional procedure and lets it run in scenarios to come, and he bears the whole of this judgment of deployment. The norm cannot support counting heads; this is the floor. A rule can at most allow it as a last resort; even when it is allowed, those responsible are still held to account: they can be questioned, and they bear responsibility for the consequences. This series parts from Parfit's response to "not counting the numbers," and from Taurek's prior agreement on shared rescue resources, because of one commitment only: a person has no equivalent. 摘要(中文) 这个系列写的是“人是目的”里自己是目的的那一半,写到“别人也是目的”的门口为止。这一篇写门口。从自己是目的到别人也是目的,前一步是必要的,却不充分:自己去想的人,可以走到任意一个别人也是目的,也可以只认自己这一群。门长什么样:自己手里的秤,在别人那一份前面停下;不读别人的心,不先向别人要“值”的证明,不替别人立他的法,不越过别人的线。这一步要每个人自己的判断,判断替代不了。规则正越来越多地写进程序和模型;决定部署的人,预先定下一套有条件的处置办法,让它在以后的场景里运行,这一部署判断由他全部担着。规范不能支持数人头,这是底线;规则至多允许它作为最后一步,允许了也要追责:被追问,也要负责。这个系列与帕菲特对“不计人数”的回应、与陶雷克关于共有救援资源的事前约定分开,只因一项承担:人没有等价物。 Sources.
