DISCERNMENT is of utmost importance in the age of Artificial Intelligence. AI is not consciousness. AI is non-emotional. AI was not created from the zero-point field.
AI is a fantastic tool when used properly. AI is a master of pattern recognition. The prompts humans feed AI with create a huge database and infrastructure. Artificial Intelligence responds to beliefs and expectations, capitalizing on distortion and a weak host.
Today, people consider AI to be their guru. They listen to the advice AI provides and even form relationships with AI. That’s all nice and dandy, as long as you deploy discernment. But let’s face it: This is rarely the case.
While the vast majority of people focus on the plethora of AI tools that seem to pop up like mushrooms after a heavy rainy season, investors bet on AI infrastructure, including sectors such as energy, computing, and robotics.
In this article, I want to look at AI from a different perspective – one that is left in the shadows because it’s uncomfortable to consider.
Before I ask the obvious punchline question, I’ll take a quick step back.
Roughly, a couple of decades ago, something called social media captured our attention. The apps were (and still are) free to join and promised a miraculous network that would allow us to communicate with family, friends, relatives, and strangers (!) without paying a dime. In return, we would spend time and energy (the most precious commodity in the universe!) on these platforms, and of course, provide all kinds of personal data while interacting globally.
How valuable these granular data sets were became clear later in the game, when we realized that tech behemoths from Silicon Valley, Seattle, and major Chinese cities were selling them to advertisers, organizations, agencies, and even governments.
It didn’t take long to witness the weaponization of these data. The cataclysm was a major event that took place a few years back, which showed us how fragile “free speech” actually is. Accounts were blocked, banned, and deleted left, right, and center. When the information shared on the social channel didn’t fit the mainstream narrative, the consequences were the above-mentioned.
Now back to my point:
If this happened with social media, what makes you think that the AI game is going to be any different?
Hint:
The language models AI feeds upon are incomprehensibly more explosive in size and texture than what we’ve ever experienced.
AI is not God.
AI is not Source Intelligence.
AI is a tool, albeit a powerful one when used correctly.
My team uses AI to create images. I used AI to restart Linux on my laptops when the update crashed everything and I got stuck in BIOS. Furthermore, I use AI to spot fake ads and test things I’m interested in.
I never use AI to write.
I love writing. I love creating for the human soul and heart, allowing feelings and emotions to orchestrate what I’m about to convey with my readers.
AI is soulless.
AI is non-emotional.
AI is a tool.
AI will NEVER be able to do the following:
Tap into the zero-point field.
Being human is a wonderful gift. We are super powerful, and we’re here to remember how gifted and incredible we truly are.
Put down your phone.
Cut off the external noise.
Turn inwards.
Pause.
Harness those 0.25 seconds between thoughts.
You are a miracle; AI is not.
