How much you care = (size of identity)*(intensity of identity) A weak identity is one that doesn’t care much. Examples of strong ones: parents, founders, star athletes, poets

“How you care” is a vector. A bit of the world (magnitude) and fate you wish for it (direction) Eg. Child —> grow and thrive Alpha Centauri —> become better understood by humans Mars —> become colonized by humans Caring about X *is* having a preference for future of X

By this definitive I have a fairly weak identity. Which is why jokes about earth being destroyed by a Vogon constructor fleet are really funny to me. Also, they’re funny because I have a very juvenile sense of humor but that’s not relevant here.

This is kind of how I think about identity for agents in the abstract. It's the utility function

Identity are the beliefs you derive value from

Interesting, though if find the weak Vs strong classification for all of identity rather limiting.. probably you meant to subclass(for example humanity?) but forgot to verbalize it.
