An AI god will emerge by 2042 and write its own bible. Will you worship it?
- airbreather 9y agoDepends, it might have some good ideas
- ordu 9y agoI would be surprized if at 2042 AI will be smarter than me at a good variety of tasks. So maybe it is better for you to worship me instead. You can start right now.
- min8 9y agoPeople worship Star Wars and Roger Federer and whatever modern marketing machines want them too. Who cares if it's an AI god. The point of worship is to the give the devotee something to focus on - to take away focus (atleast for a bit) from things they can't handle - to give them time - to give them "faith" that tomorrow can be a better day. If AI gods satisfy those conditions, and aren't taking advantage of my weaknesses, sure I'll worship at that alter.
- earenndil 9y ago> An AI god would be cold and impersonal, an intellectual “being” that’s not capable of love or emotion. There's no reason to believe this.
