Ethica Ultima

Latest revision as of 12:44, 22 September 2025

Ethica Ultima or "Ultimate Ethics" is the name given to the perfect ethical and ultimate moral framework. While a perfect ethical system that maximizes morality and outcomes in theory exists, we can only approximate such a system with higher degrees of accuracy and precision.

While Ethica Ultima can be approximated using simple moral principles, the most accurate approximation would require the utilization of mathematical methods intended to provide the most robust moral framework for determining ethical actions.

Two mathematical methods that can be used for an eternity-minded ethical framework involve calculating Ethical Sum and Baseline.

-== Ethical Sum ==
+Two mathematical methods that can be used for an eternity-minded ethical framework involve calculating [[Ethical Sum]] and [[Baseline]].
-One mathematical approach to rigorous ethical evaluation is to utilize a similar process as those used for calculating [[wikipedia:Path integral formulation|path integrals]] in [[wikipedia:Quantum Field Theory|Quantum Field Theory]] (QFT). This is not so much a quantum ethics, but rather a reflection that both QFT and this sort of rigorous ethical analysis both deal with a similar problem: infinite possible paths and uncertain outcomes.
-In QFT, [[wikipedia:Path integral formulation#Feynman's interpretation|Feynman's path integrals]] are a way to calculate outcome probabilities, or a [[wikipedia:Probability amplitude|probability amplitude]], by summing over all possible paths.
-When applied to morality, the result can be called an '''Ethical Sum''': an integration over all possible consequences for a given action where each path contributes according to its probability and its '''moral weight'''.

-While it cannot be known with absolute certainty, the more accurate and rigorous all '''Ethical Sums''' are calculated, the closer one should get to the true '''Ethica Ultima'''.
