People are messy. We stay on the sting of chaos. Feelings rule. Love collides with hate.
AI is organized information. Captured and distilled in a black field. Ready to be requested a query. Feelings are culled. Anger is annulled.
The intelligence of 8 billion people has been collated and curated by AI. Determined to be prompted. AI waits for us to poke the field of the oracle so it could possibly reply our questions.
Gleaned from our collective intelligence.
Sitting in “net house.”
An open net.
However there’s a paradox.
The paradox
The paradox is that the know-how makes us query what it means to be human.
What does it imply to be me?
What does it imply to be an imperfect human if:
- The AI oracle has the solutions to nearly the whole lot?
- AI can create an essay at hyperspeed?
- AI can produce artwork that’s shocking whereas we’re slowly surmising?
It’s an existential disaster at each flip.
The questions
There are a lot of. Listed here are just some:
- If AI can write an article, why ought to I hassle to write down?
- If AI can create a picture that’s inventive and new, why ought to I (as an artist) hassle to point out up?
- If AI can write code, then why ought to I program?
- Will “AI” steal my job?
And it continues.
The know-how poses extra questions and pushes many buttons on what it means to be human.
A Pandora’s field
These questions open a Pandora’s field.
If AI has taken over my creativity and stolen my job, why am I right here?
Goal and that means are considering of leaving.
However it’s not that easy.
Suppose “human” amplification.
The AI machine
It has captured the essence of us.
The Homo sapiens.
Our tales and extra.
Shared on social media.
Captured in books, legends and myths.
It’s a set and database of our humanity, historical past, creativity and data throughout the AI beast of an LLM (Massive Language Mannequin).
The information of us.
Studying from the knowledge we now have created and revealed.
It’s sooner.
Than human.
However it is rather human.
Give it a query.
A immediate.
It supplies a superhuman reply.
In seconds.
AI isn’t alien.
It’s a human curation.
Revealed by the know-how
Constructed by people.
What now?
The machine has requested us an enormous query. What do I do if the machine can do it higher?
As a result of it has challenged our humanity.
Are we creators anymore?
However right here’s the factor, I consider the superintelligent machine will make us extra human if we use it properly.
It’s our co-intelligence with a close to excellent reminiscence recombining concepts in unexpressed and sudden methods.
An answer to the dilemma
AI must be used as a device and never a crutch.
We ask it to attend our creation.
Help us.
Not overtake us.
The reply is hybrid.
Not abdication.
Or subjugation
It’s our creation.
The human augmented by machine.
Amplified humanity.
A mentor and coach.
Co-intelligence.
By our aspect.
It’s to be beckoned.
And referred to as.
To be our servant.
And summoned.
