Here is an example of what I mean by generating wisdom from knowledge. If we think of mathematical models, these represent reality. Each of us has a different reference model in our own mind. This model of reality is critical because it determines whether we can ever turn our knowledge into wisdom.
The Standard Model is the reference model used in physics. It is known as the most accurate model. It is so accurate that we have measured the preciseness of this model as 1 in 10 billion.
The Standard Model allows us to create simulations like the one below:
To produce wisdom first requires we start with an accurate model. We cannot make any predictions if we rely on a faulty model. By agreeing on what is real, and by following the process of science, anyone can add new knowledge or make predictions based on the standard model.
