How about the effects of dark matter? I heard from somewhere that most stars revolve around GC with the same or similar orbital period due to the influence of dark matter leveling the angular momentum drop off and causing further stars to have a greater velocity. Is this at all true? If so how do I integrate this with what you said?

This is true, though empirical findings often cause paradigm shifts that could not be explained by prior philosophies, and so a new philosophy must be written to explain the findings. It is in cases like this that science and philosophy feed each other. The basic assumptions weren't asserted out of nowhere, but were based on inferences on empirical findings. These inferences were sometimes wrong and so we had to reject those assumptions as we got more data, but that also shows the empirical foundations of the basic assumptions.

I think that the main hitch is that the generation of content isn't strict enough in terms of following certain rules. It's all fuzzy logic, and that's why weird glitchy faces are generated sometimes. What needs to happen is that the fuzzy logic is strictly constrained by some explicit rules, like the flow of causality. Otherwise there will be way too many plot holes and plots that break causality.

Basically I think AI needs the capacity of reality testing.
