Initial understanding of mathematical modeling of spiritual processes

What is a person? What does he think? Why sometimes he does it, and sometimes in a different way? Humanity cannot answer all these questions, but at the same time wants to create a supercomputer that will be a full-fledged person. We create artificial intelligence (hereinafter - AI), we try to create something that will be as smart as a person, but we do not understand how a person feels.

Yes, we can describe some feelings through emotions, but how do we make sure that a machine can not only think like a person, but also feel if we can describe, but cannot program emotions? To do this, we need to learn how to model our thoughts using mathematics and computer science. It is this problem, the problem of modeling spiritual processes for me, that is the most attractive in the study of AI.

To begin with, we need to understand what components the human spiritual world consists of. I distinguish three components: spirit, thought and faith. I will not dwell on the last two, I will go straight to the spirit, this is nevertheless closer to the topic. So let's analyze the spirit and understand what it is. Everyone, I think, watched the play "Turbin Days". On the example of this performance, we can notice how the spirit of the main characters of this production changes. At the beginning of the play sounds “So for the Tsar, for the Motherland and faith”, and at the end “So for the Union of People’s Commissars”. Spirit determines a person’s state of mind at every moment of his life.

In order for us to create a model of the existential process, we, of course, need various components. I offer the simplest components: good and evil.

And how can we model such a complex thing as the spiritual world of a person with the help of only two components that are primitive at first glance? If we understand how these concepts interact with each other, we will understand how the spirit works. Suppose that we really only have "good" and "evil." Then try to analyze an excerpt from a poem by Nicholas of Hungary:
Inhaling the aroma of roses, I
remember the shady garden,
And the gentle word "love",
What did you say to me then.

We will analyze each line separately: “Inhaling the aroma of roses” - by this phrase we cannot understand the feelings of the person who says this, but we can assume that this is a neutral feeling for him, as for most people. Accordingly, we can imagine that this is neither yes nor no, that is, using our mathematical model, this will be the following scheme.

Since in the next lines we see that the author has warm and good memories with this, we assume that this is not the best feeling, but not neutral either. How then to make it, if initially we have two states: "Good" and "Evil"? Everything is simpler: we can model it like this: “good prevailing over evil” and arrange it through the formula of mathematical logic. I suggest using denial of implication. Then, if we designate good as 1, and evil as 0, then we write down the state “good prevailing over evil” 1 ↛ 0 and in the answer we get 1, that is, good.

We will consider the second line as well as the first, therefore I will simply rewrite its result: 1 ↛ 0 = 1.
The fourth line goes along with the third, otherwise we will not be able to catch the mood of a person. “And it’s like a tender“ love ”that you told me then” - this is the line, let's try to simulate it. Obviously, since the author writes about tender words, and the whole passage is in pleasant memories, here the person was absolutely and happy. Then we can simply and without problems register a solid unit as the degree of maximum good. Again, we regard "good" as positive, and "evil" as negative.

As a result, we can simulate the existential processes of the hero of the author of the poem, which took place in it at that time, about which Nikolai Vengersky writes. Then the final model looks like this:
1 ↛ 0 = 1
1 ↛ 0 = 1
1 = 1

PS: I do not pretend to be high marks, I was interested in telling you my vision of this problem, maybe you have any comments, ideas? Write in the comments, please.
