Not at all.

AI – these are algorithms that can only be as smart as their programmer.

There is no doubt a connection between AI, consciousness and human identity that has its cause in human consciousness, but that is all that is to be said.

in AI only classification of external information takes place, which has nothing to do with consciousness. To know who I am and how I am, I don't have to ask others.

To date, one does not know what consciousness is exactly what the conditions for the development are. In this respect, AI cannot yet be associated with consciousness.

Therefore I do not see how AI and human identity can be thrown into a pot.

How do we not know what consciousness is?

There is no clear definition, no representation as the "hardware" is generated, etc. Unless you know nothing speculative.

Question: How young are you? But I don't tell you about my age anymore, like nothing else private here.

So I can learn.

For a good purpose? What? exceeded the first of the expected lifetime. 😉

Term – Wikipedia

Can I at least know your age? Is in a kind for a good purpose.

A term can be more than one word, namely a word with background, but background is also given with (further) words or formulas, whatever. When I say "cold", everyone understands something more or less of it, so it requires a further explanation until one has reached the "small common denominator".

Of course, the word of relativity theory does not explain the same thing, that is because it does not do it now, you can't just moderately formally apply everything where you want.

But triangle is, but you mean something else, explain.

You can never explain a word to yourself.

Did I say net, I think you're talking about term.

Each name is always a summary of an explanation existing behind it, definition. You can never explain a word to yourself. relativity theory eg B. is absolutely not only explained by the word itself. Triangle not too!

It's about the name.

The name says what it is. You can only say that you don't know what consciousness is to say that you don't know what consciousness is.

And should I know how old you are?

Triangles, quadrangles can be explained, calculated, analyzed, construct, sometimes try the term "consciousness". This will never be as clear and logical as X-corners. 😉

It is not possible to explain how AI should come to it or how it is "caused"

Well, that's not the point. Why do you think that?

And no, if the name says it, so it is this, triangles do not have four corners, if someone says something else he is wrong.

It is not possible to explain how AI should come to it or how it is "caused". Is a purely linguistic definition.

I'm going with speculative, you mean what you mean.

The name says it. Conscious.

We assume that Ki cannot form a real consciousness.

You know, we can't.

Not because we believe in spirits, but because our own consciousness is a mystery to us.

Of course, it's strange that machines can be smarter than people.

Only through very complex circuits, more complex than the brain.

But we're not even there.

This is not true, especially since we have not really looked through the real complexity of the brain. Brains are not similar to a computer.

It can be roughly converted.

Of course, the brain is a bit different from bare metal.

But it doesn't work without electricity.

It's switching too.

It is to be discerned that mascarons can one day think faster than the person can imagine at all.

If more reactions take place than in the human brain.

Similarity and non-existence are blurring more and more.

You're just saying 'cause you're afraid of it.

It's completely normal to be afraid of it.

But your mindset loses the neutral character it needs in science.

I'm scared too, but that doesn't matter because fear has never been a good guide.

So today's Ki systems are almost no real Ki and the development is still absolutely at the beginning.

Don't be afraid, that's total nonsense. Consider: Each computer has clock frequencies in the GHz range, the brain only in the kHz range. The brain has no intrinsically static hard drive, the entire structure, "type of computation" is completely different. The brain also has no "simple" binary way of calculation.

Because of the low "clock frequencies" alone, a completely different principle must be behind it, one huge number of parallel "calculations", and the other, despite the lame clocks, remembering often takes only seconds if at all.

This is completely neutral and factual; should not, as unfortunately so many here, become personal, that is certainly unscientific.

Neural networks come closest to the brain in small areas, already because the basic structure is also partly based on parallel processing.

In addition, a lot of chemical, hormonal influences play a decisive role in the brain.

In one point, however, I have at least worry: already now can be made with AI serious deception, even images, videos are no longer safe. This can create a lot of serious problems.

Perhaps AI has given us aliens (but without flying saucers, etc.) with certain intentions…

  • One learns social interaction with fellow human beings, such as, for example, close friendships are lost, doctor visits are rather made with AI, social communication suffers, emotions are not lived and experienced, experiences remain from
  • Faulty answers possible

In fact, there was only one shot in the blue…without the core points where the FS writes about it, really hard to say^^
