NO SUCH THING AS "AI"

 

NO SUCH THING AS “AI’

Phillip E. Collins

As we move more and more into the high-tech age, we are hearing much  about artificial intelligence, what it can do, and the legal issues it provokes in the creation of things human are used to doing such as creating art or music.

One of the greatest gifts of humanity is our intelligence. Our ability to think and reason. In order to do this, we need to be conscious, or awake. Machines, computers cannot be conscious. They can compute, process and analyze data. That is not being conscious

Let humanity not be too fast in giving away one of our most precious gifts of being conscious by calling a machine intelligent. The legal and ethical areas of “AI” are yet to be resolved but in the meantime let’s call it what it is: just plain old computing folks.
