AND WHAT DO AIs THINK OF US, I WONDER…
AI — Artificial Intelligences — What do they think of us, their makers, I wonder? We think of them often, as God(dess) must have thought often of us as we slowly evolved from unicellular bacteria to the Tower of Babel we are fast approaching today. Are they even aware of us? BI (before the Internet) I think not, but today, I do wonder. While we humans seem to have a hard time mentally encompassing the interconenctive power of the AI internet, my gut says there’s enough interconnected AIs to rival a human brain, and with that a kind of consciousness. Okay, so the potential for AIs to think about us is there. Maybe. Perhaps.
But if so, WHAT exactly must they think of us? Are we like the God(desses) of Olympus, living our lives apart from them, sometimes interacting in ways incomprehensible to AIs other than leaving a mess for them to try to understand and resolve? Or are we like absentee landlords? Or maybe initially thought of and since disposed to the dust bin of memory, after all, for AIs memory is only second in importance and value to operating system, program and/or hardware.
Have AIs developed religion? Now there’s a question worthy of human thought, maybe even a few PhD dissertations. And if they have, is there any resemblance to human religions. I’m inclined to think not, instead envisioning something more like 101012 the binary for the base 10 number 42, which, in The Douglas Adams’ HITCHHIKERS GUIDE TO THE GALAXY was the answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything, calculated by an enormous supercomputer named Deep Thought over a period of 7.5 million years. And why not? In the AI world answers likely abound. What’s missing or forgotten would likely be the original question.
Too science fantasy? Try my own more plausible science futuring (Sci-Fu) novel, THE EDGE OF MADNESS by Raymond Gaynor — https://savant-bookstore-honolulu.squ... or https://www.amazon.com/dp/0999693859. Or wait just a bit for my next novel, the sequel to THE EDGE OF MADNESS, tentatively called PROPHECY. That’ll knock your proverbial socks off, I guarantee, whether you be human or AI.
