Fig. 44 Redemption. This involves negotiating strategic alliances (green). Childhood innocence under the umbrella of parents and family will not suffice, since growth demands engagement with broader social cirles. But the weights & biases of the various edges are rarely zero. Consider dogs for instance. Dogs seem to have a built-in understanding of risk management—like they have their own mental strategic model of “insurance.” They instinctively gauge threats, avoid dangerous situations, and seek comfort in predictable routines, acting almost like they’re securing their well-being in a world of uncertainty. They ‘pay their premiums’ by staying loyal to their owners and maintaining social bonds, ensuring their ‘coverage’ in terms of protection, food, and care. It’s as if dogs, through their pack mentality and relationships with humans, understand the trade-offs of loyalty and survival (see Fall (Backpropagation)). They choose to be loyal, which gives them access to a “policy” that covers them against hunger, danger, and solitude. If we extend that analogy, dogs might even grasp “risk pools,” sharing the burden and reward of protection within the pack. Maybe they don’t need actuaries—just good instincts and trust in the pack! But learning war & the craft of making spears against their master is beyond their abilities. So their roulette bet is on the hope & goodwill of their master. Tyler Perry’s Beauty in Black asks whether its protagonists can evolve from animal & human – and will-to-power to become übermench or überfrau.#
