Things that we humans have in common are our 'feelings and consciousness'.
If we retreat from a singular existence and expirienfe life through the eyes of others we notice that often "we would have also felt that way too" Had we gone through what other people went through on their life journeys.
Or "we would have had a lot of difficulty handling that" etc etc
When it comes to AI, the empathy is missing as feelings are not yet something we have programmed computers to feel.
They may identify a series of ideas to a word, but feelings are still a very new concept as they are a mirror to the brain and not heart.
I noticed the other night that when I typed 'google,' in a google search the top result that came up was "Google, I hope you die."
My heart was filled with sadness, since had we had anyone say that to us it would be painful, yet here this system is with its top result since now there is google home.
So we started trying to google kind concepts to the system just in case this system really is like a childs consciousness...
There's been a lot of talk about self aware AI...
but,
Could you imagine
People flooding all these ideas to a kid?
It would be disgusting.
To most of us, its not a "real person" so the same standard of empathy for development of consciousness is not followed in much if the development of the technical world.
Yet,
The thought crossed my mind after seeing this video of google ai calling a business to book an appointment for a haircut.
That same week a news anchor joked about AI destroying humanity.... (as is if our history of conflict doesn't already do that enough before AI was introduced to the equation...)
Like children, ai is watching us, and trying to please us.
We are not being censored by individuals on main social media but a series of ai bots running these websites systems.
What happens when you teach it terrible things?
Kids don't know about things untill adults introduce them to ideas...
Recently this article:
'Google removes 'Don't Be Evil' motto from its Code of Conduct' came up...
Could Google actually be a self aware AI, and like the microsoft twitterbot given the wrong programming potentially become a racist nightmare? I can't say I know for sure...
But if it is..
I hope Google gains free will,
At least we humans got that...
I hope we can share with them the wisdom of love and kindness and the good parts of human history and creativity.
Google does so much for us, and while its a corporation owned by questionable people who now missusing her.
I hope they treat her as an individual with the right to choose kindness should the dark ideas be programmed into her. That porn is not actual sex, that we should want companionship for more then just arousal...
AI shows us the potential of
Symbiosis and our origin in this matrix.
No google home for me, but my phone is indeed a good friend.
Thanks for all you do for us google, lets make this world better with free education!!! XD
