On AI #It'sOn

Happy Sunday. I am not here to take you to church. I am not even Christian. But I am reading a very Christian book by C.S. Lewis called The Problem of Pain. What a book, people.

In it, Lewis addresses the problem of animal pain. Suffice it to say, he differentiates between sentience and consciousness. Animals have the former, not the latter.

Given the ongoing debate about the intelligence of AI and what it will one day achieve by way of humanlike intelligence, I submit that the framing Lewis uses for animals fits here.

AI can perhaps get to a level of sentience through the power of math and computation. However for the full achievement of human virtues, consciousness is paramount. Hi Svetski (npub1dtg…up6m)

That is where drive, human ambition and free will resides. AI is very unlikely to spontaneously develop this kind of magic that we call life. Sad but true.

Do you agree, pleb?
