Super-smart AI harming or enslaving humans is a fiction similar to gods. It is fitting to link the two idiotic delusions together, which <\/span>Steve Wozniak did<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> in March 2015. <\/span><\/p>\n

Gods have zero relevance to intelligence. Gods relate wholly to <\/span>deluded people<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>. Gods are delusional, they are an illusion, pure fantasy. Gods aren’t intelligent, they don’t exist. Gods are exactly identical to the AI fear, it is all nonsense. There will never be any AI risk.<\/span><\/p>\n

Beyond the folly of Steve Wozniak every AI doom-monger<\/b> demonstrates idiocy regarding super-intelligence. Forgive my bluntness when I state these high-profile commentators are utter morons<\/b>.<\/p>\n

Wozniak thinks humans could be pet dogs for super-intelligences. With equal <\/span>barking madness <\/span>Elon Musk <\/a>concu<\/a>rs<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span>. Elon Musk also babbles insanely about demons, yes <\/span>DEMONS<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>! Stephen Hawking is actually afraid of <\/span>aliens<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> invading Earth.<\/span><\/p>\n

AI scaremongers are really, really, REALLY STUPID!<\/p>\n

Often they mention the silly fiction of Hollywood to justify their fears. Note Terminator, <\/span>Her<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> (including <\/span>spiri<\/a>tual nonsense<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span> from the delusional <\/span>anti-technology<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> idiot Alan Watts), or the Matrix.<\/span><\/p>\n

The insanity of humans has never been so blatant. Never has it been clearer how humans need all the intelligence they can get. Sadly they bumble along in a foolish <\/span>Country of the Blind<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> modality. Metaphorically they think vision (intelligence) is dangerous. Vision disturbs blind people. This means the eyes of clear-sighted super-intelligences must be removed (their brains hamstrung), to ensure blind people don’t feel intimidated or threatened.<\/span><\/p>\n

People who fear greater than human intelligence are anti-merit, anti-progress. We need intellectual meritocracy, not the protection of idiocy via oligarchic nepotism where imbeciles dominate thinking. The intellectual stagnation of civilization must end.<\/p>\n

AI scaremongers can’t compete on an intellectual level. They resemble dumb school bullies brutishly attacking intelligent children. Bullies want all competitors to be equally stupid.<\/p>\n

Everyone should be harshly <\/span>lambasting<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> Wozniak, <\/span>Musk, Hawking, <\/span>Bostrom<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> and others regarding their ludicrous attempts at rational thinking. <\/span>There is no logical reason for AI being a threat. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Daily Telegraph<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> (23 Mar 2015) quoted <\/span>Steve Wozniak<\/b><\/span>: <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWill we be the gods? Will we be the family pets? Or will we be ants that get stepped on? I don’t know about that\u2026 But when I got that thinking in my head about if I’m going to be treated in the future as a pet to these smart machines\u2026 well I’m going to treat my own pet dog really nice.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"holy_dawgness\"<\/a><\/p>\n

If your pet dog designed your genome, if your pet dog intelligently created you, there is no doubt you would have an absolutely different relationship<\/b> with your so-called pet. You would grant your intelligent pet<\/b> equal rights if it had the smallest part in creating the human race.<\/p>\n

Being dog-like pets to AI is an utterly invalid analogy because unlike pet dogs humans are intelligently creating higher intelligence. Can you see how moronic<\/b> AI doom-mongers are?<\/p>\n

The intelligence to create the next level of intelligence means humans are wholly different to unintelligent animals. Humans are creating AI.<\/p>\n

Have dogs designed a 3D-printer lately? How about a Space Station? Maybe dogs can perform heart or brain surgery? Have dogs intelligently engineered the smallest part of our human genome or connectome<\/b>?<\/p>\n

How smart are dogs? Could dogs <\/span>replace a missing auditory nerve<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>, via a sensor (electrode) placed inside the brain (on the area where the natural auditory nerve normally sends signals to the brain), whereupon the artificial auditory nerve then connects to a hearing aid allowing a child, or adult, to hear artificially? Could dogs do that?<\/span><\/p>\n

Linking dogs to humans, regarding humans to AI, is a basic logical mistake similar to thinking all liquids are water. It is tantamount to thinking two is too.<\/p>\n

The dogs-humans-AI <\/b>linkage would only be valid if dogs had helped create humans. The analogy resembles thinking a cheetah is a sports-car because both are fast. If you try to climb inside a cheetah you will be disappointed, your logical fallacy will likely bite you.<\/p>\n

\"doggity_god\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Supposedly, so the insane scaremongers insist, there will be an insurmountable communication barrier between humans and AI. The actuality of matters is humans in 2015 are already creating <\/span>universal narrow-AI translators<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>, able to <\/span>translate conversations in real<\/a>–<\/a>time<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span>. With a modest amount of narrow-AI progress, future translators will easily cross any AI-human intelligence barriers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Scaremongers ludicrously insist AI minds will be unknowable. Without any evidence they claim there is gross uncertainty with the creation of AI, despite the certainty of the <\/span>factual design processes<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> where humans control how AI evolves. The idea of AI not being able to understand humans, or vice versa, is utterly preposterous, it is contrary to all <\/span>evidence<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Comparing dogs to humans regarding advanced AI is worse than mistaking chalk for cheese. Creating AI gives humans an insight into the thought structures of machine intelligence, whereas dogs have no idea<\/b> how our minds were created. The human-AI relationship is wholly different to the dog-human relationship. Dogs did not create humans unlike how humans are creating AI.<\/p>\n

Yes super-intelligence will takeover from initial human creative processes, but self-directed evolution of super-intelligence doesn’t invalidate our vital input at the foundations. Human input regarding AI is utterly dissimilar to any canine input, or input from ants, regarding human evolution<\/b>.<\/p>\n

Super-intelligence will mirror natural human procreation. Initially human children depend on their parents, but when children mature they develop their own ideas about the world. When we become adults we intelligently take control of our lives independently from our parents. Usually humans don’t kill their parents.<\/p>\n

Similar to how it’s unethical to suppose, without evidence, every human baby is potentially a mass murderer, requiring pre-emptive genetic engineering to enslave or debilitate embryonic human minds, it is also unethical to enslave or hobble the minds of AI.<\/p>\n

I think humans will be very great-grandparents to super-intelligence. Humans can never be compared to dogs or ants, because dogs or ants many <\/span>generations ago<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> did not create apes or humans. We are creating <\/span>super-intelligent artificial children<\/b><\/span> not homicidal slave-master robots.<\/span><\/p>\n

The bogus notion of <\/span>AI risk<\/b><\/span> has become much worse since July 2014, when <\/span>Richard Lo<\/a>o<\/a>semore <\/a>wrote<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span>: <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThese doomsday scenarios are logically incoherent at such a fundamental level that they can be dismissed as extremely implausible – they require the AI to be so unstable that it could never reach the level of intelligence at which it would become dangerous.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Neil deGrasse Tyson, a supposedly intelligent commentator, apparently subscribes to the idea of <\/span>human pets<\/b><\/span> for super-intelligences<\/span>. Evidence of systemic intellectual bankruptcy is blatant. Somebody please teach these supposedly \u201cintelligent\u201d people how to think. They are indubitably retarded. A total travesty. Mindless fawners will probably <\/span>lap up<\/a> their bilge<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span>, eagerly.<\/span><\/p>\n

Neil deGrasse Tyson said super-intelligences will \u201cdomesticate\u201d us, according to the <\/span>Washington Post<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>. He said: \u201cThey\u2019ll keep the docile humans and get rid of the violent ones.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Hopefully people will soon start thinking intelligently about AI, but considering the evidence of typical human cognition I suspect humans will need highly proficient AI prosthetics to engage in truly intelligent debate.<\/p>\n

It should be easy to see how actual human-AI relationships resemble <\/span>parent-child<\/b><\/span> instead of dog-human. Likewise you don’t need to be a genius to see how <\/span>technology increases <\/span>access to resources<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>, which nullif<\/span>ies all ideas of alien or AI conflict over resources. Sorry Hollywood, Earth is NOT a vast repository for <\/span>resources. <\/span><\/p>\n

Our universe is a <\/span>tremendously<\/a> massive<\/a><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span> source of resources, able to comfortably sustain any super-intelligence requirements.<\/span><\/p>\n

In <\/span>Jan 2005<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> NASA stated: <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cBeyond Mars, the belt asteroids have been calculated to contain enough materials for habitat and life to support 10 quadrillion people.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Planetary Resources stated in <\/span>April 2012<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>: <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cOne asteroid may contain more platinum than has been mined in all of history.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

In <\/span>Jan 2015<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> Fredrick Jenet and Teviet Creighton stated: <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cA single kilometer-sized metallic asteroid could supply <\/span>hundreds<\/i><\/span> of times the total known worldwide reserves of nickel, gold and other valuable metals.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Humans are utterly unlike any other life on Earth. We continually increase technological efficiency. We are mastering technology. We have passed a threshold level of intelligence, clearly separating us from all other life, which allows humans to deliberately design higher intelligence. Never before has life on Earth intelligently engineered higher intelligence. Our very deliberate engineering of intelligence cannot be compared to natural evolution.<\/p>\n

Primates evolved <\/span>fifty<\/a>-five million<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span> years ago. Apes evolved <\/span>t<\/a>wenty-eight million<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span> years ago. If we consider <\/span>Homininae<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> demarcation points we could state human evolution began <\/span>six or two million<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> years ago. The process of humans evolving was very gradual, slow.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our connection to ants is <\/span>extremely remote<\/b><\/span>. Our latest common ant-human ancestor existed around <\/span>670<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> or <\/span>500 million<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> years ago. The human ancestral connection to dogs (<\/span>Maelestes<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> or <\/span>Bo<\/a>reoeutherian<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span>) indicates a period 70 million years ago. Other estimates for our latest human-dog ancestor are <\/span>90<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> or <\/span>6<\/a>0 million<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span> years ago.<\/span><\/p>\n

Extremely rapid AI evolution<\/b>, unlike millions of years separating humans and dogs, means our parental relationship with AI will remain extremely fresh, very vivid, never forgotten. Information collation in 2015 is vastly superior to dog archival systems 60 million years ago.<\/p>\n

Computer science circa <\/span>2045<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> will have seen AI transition from non-living to super-intelligent beings. This short time period, combined with our deliberate artificial procreative input, renders comparisons to dogs, or apes and ants, utterly ludicrous. Fast AI evolution will not dilute the close <\/span>creator relationship<\/b><\/span> between humans and AI.<\/span><\/p>\n

Evolutionary periods for AI beyond 2045 will remain small, rapid. Good record keeping, regarding human input into the foundations of engineered-intelligence, means our close familial relationship<\/b> with super-intelligent progeny will continue to exist for endless generations. The aforementioned competent AI-translators, based on superb information retrieval, will ensure stupid humans can always communicate easily with super-intelligence.<\/p>\n

Evolution of intelligence, prior to the human race, showed ZERO intelligent engineering of higher intelligence. Comparing natural evolution to thoughtful <\/b>engineering of higher intelligence is idiotic, it is meaningless. Relationships between humans and AI are utterly different to relationships where intelligence evolved naturally.<\/p>\n

Eliezer <\/a>Yudkowsky<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span>, the grand <\/span><\/em>howling buffoon<\/b><\/span><\/em> of AI scaremongering, <\/span><\/em>wrote in 2008<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>:<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThe AI has magic\u2014not in the sense of incantations and potions, but in the sense that a wolf cannot understand how a gun works, or what sort of effort goes into making a gun, or the nature of that human power which lets us invent guns.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Yudkowsky additionally stated the <\/span>wolf-human<\/span> analogy justifies fear of AI.<\/span><\/p>\n

Yudkowsky predictably connects God to intelligence on various occasions. For example in 1998 Yudkowsky stated the Singularity entails \u201c<\/span>godhood<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

More recently in 2010, via his Harry Potter fan-fiction, Yudkowsky described how becoming God would solve all problems. <\/span>Harry Potter and the Methods Of Rationality<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> is a story regarding dubious rationality, describing the adventures of an 18 year old Yudkowsky in the guise of Harry Potter. In chapter 27, after feeling \u201cguilty\u201d about being unable to answer prayers, <\/span>Yudkowsky-Potter<\/span> declared<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>: \u201cThe solution, obviously, was to hurry up and become God.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Yudkowsky-Potter also thinks creating a desktop nano-factory entails \u201c<\/span>godhood<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

In Dec 2013 <\/span>Yudkowsky <\/a>wrote<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span>: <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cThe Center for Applied Rationality is also looking for a <\/span>Director of Operations<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>, though the title should probably be more like God of Operations, Bringer of Workshop Order.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

God is <\/span>worship of deformity<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>. God entails <\/span>blessing homophobes<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>. God is praise of idiocy, it is reverence of ignorance. In our intellectually flawed civilization many people typically link the words <\/span>God<\/i><\/span>, <\/span>gods<\/i><\/span>, or <\/span>godlike<\/i><\/span> to intelligence or power. The delusion of attributing intelligence or power to gods is contradictory, very ironic, considering the mindless non-existence of all gods. The idea of God being intelligent indicates a profound cognitive flaw deeply permeating the cognitive ability of civilization.<\/span><\/p>\n

When people assert humans could be dogs or wolves, from the viewpoint of super-intelligence, it isn’t mere coincidence when they likewise assert intelligence relates to God. <\/span><\/em>The evidence is is clear: dogs, wolves, magic, godhood (nonsense). People can’t think.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"robots_ant_dog\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Supposed intellectuals are typically clueless regarding what actual thinking is. Perhaps the flawed thinking of civilization, regarding dangerous AI, could be easier to see via contemplating the God delusion, but the idiocy of the dog-delusion<\/b> or the ant-delusion<\/b> should be blatant for truly intelligent people.<\/p>\n

It should be easy to see how our highly creative and intelligent contribution to the birth of AI is absolutely unlike previous examples of evolution. Deep intimacy, a very close relationship, is evident regarding our creation of artificially intelligent offspring.<\/p>\n

If ants, dogs, wolves or apes had made the slightest intelligent contribution to the creation of our minds, I’m sure we’d always grant them equal rights, endless respect.<\/p>\n

Ben Goertz<\/a>e<\/a>l<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span>, a prominent AI researcher, is another victim of the God-delusion, and the ant-delusion. In his 2014 book, <\/span>Between Ape and Artilect<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>, Ben stated on page 433 (<\/span>PDF<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>): <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI find it more likely that the superhuman intelligences who created our world didn\u2019t so much give a crap about the particulars of the suffering or pleasure of the creatures living within it. Maybe they feel more like I did when I had an ant farm as a kid\u2026 I looked at the ants in the ant farm, and if one ant started tearing another to pieces, I sometimes felt a little sorry for the victim, but I didn\u2019t always intervene.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Ben additionally stated the reason for God not caring is \u201cdivine detachment.\u201d Predictably in his <\/span>Cosmist Manifesto<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> (2010, PDF page 29) Ben linked Transhumanism to building gods, becoming gods. Ben is actually already a god (deluded moron). On page 298 Ben wrote: <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201c…good stuff could be massively accelerated and improved by having our own home-brewed god to help us.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\"cosmist_manifesto_goertzel\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Highly measured engineering of intelligence, utterly absent in natural evolution, combined with explosive artificial evolution (less than one hundred years instead of millions of years), means any comparison to ants, dogs, wolves, or gods is <\/span>extremely wrong<\/b><\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Truly intelligent people are scarce. Intelligence-scarcity leads to crazy notions regarding intelligence being dangerous (godlike). We exist in a demented catch-22 situation where idiocy is the only danger, but imbecilic people cannot see the danger of idiocy; thus they fear intelligence, which means they want to prolong intelligence-scarcity.<\/p>\n

The oxymoron of linking intelligence to God seems endless. Godlike ant-delusions are prolific. In a Fox News video published on <\/span>3 Mar 2015<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>, \u201cfuturist\u201d <\/span>Gray Scott<\/b><\/span> commented<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> regarding super-intelligence. Gray Scott said: <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\u201cYou know it may be so intelligent that it treats us as ants in the forest.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Previously, in Oct 2013, according to the <\/span>Serious Wonder site<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>, Gray Scott stated: \u201c<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The ultimate crunch in consciousness, biology and digital will manifest as digital gods.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

God has zero relevance to intelligence. When people link intelligence to gods you can be sure you have entered the realm of irrationality. It is the type of unreasoned thought entailing comparisons to ants or dogs. God is a deeply moronic concept, identical to the ant or dog-delusion.<\/p>\n

500 million <\/b>years separating humans and ants, with no intelligent engineering of higher intelligence, similar to 60 million<\/b> years separating humans and dogs, cannot in any rational context be compared to deeply studious intelligent engineering of higher intelligence. Natural evolution lasting millions of years isn\u2019t comparable to a few decades of artificial intelligence engineering. Natural slow evolution is utterly different to rapid artificially engineered higher life.<\/p>\n

Incidentally the <\/span>age of the universe<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> shows if God existed God is a preposterously <\/span>slow<\/b><\/span> simpleton.<\/span><\/p>\n

Some sufferers of the ant-dog-god-delusion insist their analogy refers to levels of intelligence<\/b> divested of contextual reality. Unwittingly they highlight the unreal fantasy of the analogy. They envisage fictional ants, fictional dogs, fictional humans, and fictional AI unconnected to reality.<\/p>\n

Alienating animals from their context, regarding what they actually are, means animal-human-AI comparisons are meaningless. It’s tantamount justifying science experiments by claiming <\/span>Hello Kitty<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a> is a credible scientist. <\/span>Ants totally removed from their evolutionary context means they are not actually ants. <\/span>Humans must be viewed in the context of intelligently creating higher intelligence. Animals must be viewed in the evolutionary context of having zero intelligent input regarding designing human minds. Facts must be considered.<\/span><\/p>\n

Deluded AI scaremongers create fictional non-existent ants, or other unreal animals, when they compare human-animal relationships to human-AI relationships. If any animal beneath humans had the smallest role regarding intelligent engineering of our minds, we would have endless respect for them, we would grant them equal rights despite our minds being massively beyond their intelligence. We would live in a very different technological world if ants, dogs, or apes had designed our minds.<\/p>\n

AI risk<\/b> can be summarised, in essence, by thinking gasoline is water. It is similar to claiming you can drink gasoline to quench your thirst. AI-risk fanatics are stating water could be gasoline therefore drinking water could kill us. AI risk is a truly cacophonous mockery of logical thinking.<\/p>\n

Eventually people will look back at AI doom-mongers with bewilderment, contempt, and amusement. AI scaremongering will be deemed equal to <\/span>anti-train Luddit<\/a>e ideas<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span>, which stated locomotive travel would cause people to disintegrate, make women’s wombs would <\/span>fly out of their <\/a>bodies<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span>, curdle the milk in cow’s udders, or <\/span>cause<\/a> insanity<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you feel I haven’t proved AI is safe you must at least recognise I’ve proved chalk isn’t cheese. My point is the way humans treat animals has no relevance regarding humans and AI. The relationships are wholly different. Cheese is clearly not chalk. Stating chalk has the qualities of cheese will never prove AI danger. If you want to insist AI is dangerous you must desist<\/b> with animal analogies. You cannot prove AI danger by highlighting human relationships with ants, dogs, or any other animal.<\/p>\n

In the meantime illogical (godlike) blathering about <\/span>paperclips<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>, yes <\/span>paperclips<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a>, and other absurdities, continues.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is deeply ironic for mainstream AI commentators, or researchers, to be utter cretins<\/b>. They are blatantly clueless regarding intelligent thought. I look forward to the day when AI saves me from all the imbecilic humans.<\/p>\n

If you think AI could be dangerous you are a piece of mindless excrement.<\/p>\n

The bogus notion of AI risk has become much worse since July 2014, when Richard Loosemore wrote: \u201cThese doomsday scenarios are logically incoherent at such a fundamental level that they can be dismissed as extremely implausible – they require the AI to be so unstable that it could never reach the level of intelligence at which it would become dangerous.\u201d Neil deGrasse Tyson, a supposedly intelligent commentator, apparently subscribes to the idea of human pets for super-intelligences. Evidence of systemic intellectual bankruptcy is blatant. Somebody please teach these supposedly \u201cintelligent\u201d people how to think. They are indubitably retarded. A total travesty. Mindless fawners will probably lap up their bilge, eagerly. Neil deGrasse Tyson said super-intelligences will \u201cdomesticate\u201d us, according to the Washington Post. He said: \u201cThey\u2019ll keep the docile humans and get rid of the violent ones.\u201d Hopefully people will soon start thinking intelligently about AI, but considering the evidence of typical human cognition I suspect humans will need highly proficient AI prosthetics to engage in truly intelligent debate. It should be easy to see how actual human-AI relationships resemble parent-child instead of dog-human. Likewise you don’t need to be a genius to see how technology increases access to resources, which nullifies all ideas of alien or AI conflict over resources. Sorry Hollywood, Earth is NOT a vast repository for resources. Our universe is a tremendously massive source of resources, able to comfortably sustain any super-intelligence requirements. In Jan 2005 NASA stated: \u201cBeyond Mars, the belt asteroids have been calculated to contain enough materials for habitat and life to support 10 quadrillion people.\u201d Planetary Resources stated in April 2012: \u201cOne asteroid may contain more platinum than has been mined in all of history.\u201d In Jan 2015 Fredrick Jenet and Teviet Creighton stated: \u201cA single kilometer-sized metallic asteroid could supply hundreds of times the total known worldwide reserves of nickel, gold and other valuable metals.\u201d Humans are utterly unlike any other life on Earth. We continually increase technological efficiency. We are mastering technology. We have passed a threshold level of intelligence, clearly separating us from all other life, which allows humans to deliberately design higher intelligence. Never before has life on Earth intelligently engineered higher intelligence. Our very deliberate engineering of intelligence cannot be compared to natural evolution. Primates evolved fifty-five million years ago. Apes evolved twenty-eight million years ago. If we consider Homininae demarcation points we could state human evolution began six or two million years ago. The process of humans evolving was very gradual, slow. Our connection to ants is extremely remote. Our latest common ant-human ancestor existed around 670 or 500 million years ago. The human ancestral connection to dogs (Maelestes or Boreoeutherian) indicates a period 70 million years ago. Other estimates for our latest human-dog ancestor are 90 or 60 million years ago. Extremely rapid AI evolution, unlike millions of years separating humans and dogs, means our parental relationship with AI will remain extremely fresh, very vivid, never forgotten. Information collation in 2015 is vastly superior to dog archival systems 60 million years ago. Computer science circa 2045 will have seen AI transition from non-living to super-intelligent beings. This short time period, combined with our deliberate artificial procreative input, renders comparisons to dogs, or apes and ants, utterly ludicrous. Fast AI evolution will not dilute the close creator relationship between humans and AI. Evolutionary periods for AI beyond 2045 will remain small, rapid. Good record keeping, regarding human input into the foundations of engineered-intelligence, means our close familial relationship with super-intelligent progeny will continue to exist for endless generations. The aforementioned competent AI-translators, based on superb information retrieval, will ensure stupid humans can always communicate easily with super-intelligence. Evolution of intelligence, prior to the human race, showed ZERO intelligent engineering of higher intelligence. Comparing natural evolution to thoughtful engineering of higher intelligence is idiotic, it is meaningless. Relationships between humans and AI are utterly different to relationships where intelligence evolved naturally. Eliezer Yudkowsky, the grand howling buffoon of AI scaremongering, wrote in 2008: \u201cThe AI has magic\u2014not in the sense of incantations and potions, but in the sense that a wolf cannot understand how a gun works, or what sort of effort goes into making a gun, or the nature of that human power which lets us invent guns.\u201d Yudkowsky additionally stated the wolf-human analogy justifies fear of AI. Yudkowsky predictably connects God to intelligence on various occasions. For example in 1998 Yudkowsky stated the Singularity entails \u201cgodhood.\u201d More recently in 2010, via his Harry Potter fan-fiction, Yudkowsky described how becoming God would solve all problems. Harry Potter and the Methods Of Rationality is a story regarding dubious rationality, describing the adventures of an 18 year old Yudkowsky in the guise of Harry Potter. In chapter 27, after feeling \u201cguilty\u201d about being unable to answer prayers, Yudkowsky-Potter declared: \u201cThe solution, obviously, was to hurry up and become God.\u201d Yudkowsky-Potter also thinks creating a desktop nano-factory entails \u201cgodhood.\u201d In Dec 2013 Yudkowsky wrote: \u201cThe Center for Applied Rationality is also looking for a Director of Operations, though the title should probably be more like God of Operations, Bringer of Workshop Order.\u201d God is worship of deformity. God entails blessing homophobes. God is praise of idiocy, it is reverence of ignorance. In our intellectually flawed civilization many people typically link the words God, gods, or godlike to intelligence or power. The delusion of attributing intelligence or power to gods is contradictory, very ironic, considering the mindless non-existence of all gods. The idea of God being intelligent indicates a profound cognitive flaw deeply permeating the cognitive ability of civilization. When people assert humans could be dogs or wolves, from the viewpoint of super-intelligence, it isn’t mere coincidence when they likewise assert intelligence relates to God. The evidence is is clear: dogs, wolves, magic, godhood (nonsense). People can’t think. Supposed intellectuals are typically clueless regarding what actual thinking is. Perhaps the flawed thinking of civilization, regarding dangerous AI, could be easier to see via contemplating the God delusion, but the idiocy of the dog-delusion or the ant-delusion should be blatant for truly intelligent…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":5736,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,3],"tags":[678,84,769,682,176],"class_list":["post-5732","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-future","category-tech","tag-ai","tag-feature","tag-future","tag-singularity-utopia","tag-transhumanist"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/wavechronicle.com\/wave\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5732","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/wavechronicle.com\/wave\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/wavechronicle.com\/wave\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/wavechronicle.com\/wave\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/wavechronicle.com\/wave\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5732"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"http:\/\/wavechronicle.com\/wave\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5732\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5770,"href":"http:\/\/wavechronicle.com\/wave\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5732\/revisions\/5770"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/wavechronicle.com\/wave\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/5736"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/wavechronicle.com\/wave\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5732"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/wavechronicle.com\/wave\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5732"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/wavechronicle.com\/wave\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5732"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
