I'm bouncing off this article about Artificial Intelligence (AI). I stand by my convictions previously indicated by my fiction books on AI (one and two): AI will never rise to something that God hasn't already revealed about Creation in general. If there is to be a genuine AI, it will merely be a reflection of what man already thinks, or God will seize and it make it follow His revelation. I suspect the former. That means it will never do what enthusiasts dream about, nor what the naysayers fear, because it will always be the results of programing written by humans. By no means can it eclipse a heart-led people.
AI will always be biased, because it programming itself is a bias, as it is a certain form of reasoning. Not that it's necessarily bad, but we should be aware of its limitations. It will be oversold as something else entirely, of course, because it has to be. I don't think people would be willing to give it a chance unless it's posed as the "next step" in technology.
