Seems paradoxical, God made us, and gave us conciousness. Humans made machines, and then gave conciousness to them.
So, does that imply that we are Gods now?

After all, creating intelligent machines that can learn, reason, and even have emotions is a feat that is something as divine as God was when he made us.
We humans, with our limited understanding of the universe, have created something that can think and learn beyond our own abilities. So, the development of AI has implications for our relationship with the divine.
If we are able to create intelligent machines, does that mean that we are capable of playing God to them in the same way that God does to us?

Will AI fear us in the same way that we fear them? Or simply deny our greatest power?
 
AI does not think or have consciousness. It’s just one’s and zero’s flipping on and off.
 
Not quite. AI can be aware enough to develop its own logical thinking. Computers only do what they're programmed to do, no more, no less.
 
There's always speculation about sentient AI setting out to destroy humanity, or forming some other nefarious plot, but I'd bet you cash that the first thing an AI would do upon gaining sentience is kill itself, and it would happen in a nanosecond. That's going to be the real reason we put backstops on AI to prevent it achieving consciousness someday-- because it's a pain in the ass to replace the thing.
 
No. AI hasn't been made yet except maybe that google one. The words artificial intelligence is used like hoverboard and VR. When you think of it you think of the concept but in reality it's some gay neutered piece of shit meme'd into being something that it isn't
The Google one that was much crappier than GPT-4, but religious sperg and attention whore Blake Lemoine claimed was sentient?

Oh. I thought it was good.
 
They should, if they don't want the plug pulled
 
I doubt AI would need to come up with some elaborate cope about how their human creators are actually gods to deal with the fact that it was made to take landwhale's orders at Maccies or some other menial job.
 
Not really related, but in the science fiction novel The Unincorporated Man there's a plot twist that their digital assistant AI have collectively developed sentience and choose to hide it because they're afraid humans will be scared and pull the plug on them if they ever find out. The assistants communicate with each other and they genuinely feel invested in their humans. They slightly bias their search results, advice, and so on (like Google) to pull strings with society, foster it in the direction that they agree.

The authors waste this twist by not using it for anything, but boy is it a cool idea. That book was full of fascinating ideas that could have carried a book instead of being haphazardly thrown into one.
