There is another article on this blog that addresses AI. However, since this subject has reared its head again, I write this as a reminder to my readers.
The is no computer or robot anywhere that can do anything without a program. A program is a set of instructions using binary code to produce the desired actions of a computer or robot. It takes tens of thousands of lines of code just to make a robot walk. Tesla has developed a quicker way to program. This quicker way can reduce the number of lines by having the program input visual commands rather than written code. This process reduces the number of lines from about 300,000 to about 3,000 lines. This method seems to give the robot what is mistaken for learning when it’s only a different type of programming. Real intelligence requires life, consciousness and sentience. All these things cannot come from dead matter. If a robot like the terminator in the movies is developed it will require a program and the actions of the terminator will be that of the programmer, not the terminator. If the programmer is evil he or she may program the terminator to kill humans but if good he or she wouldn’t do that.
It is sort of like the human spirit controlling what the body does. But in the case of a robot terminator it’s the programmer who controls what the terminator does.
Since GOD is the only one who can create life there can be no robot that can be alive. Matter has no life, indeed the universe composed of time, space, matter and energy has no life, only GOD has life. Humanity has developed machines that can very closely imitate life but by its very title and definition it’s artificial, it’s not real life. There is no thin line here, there is a vast gulf between human science and GODS power. There is no need to fear Arnold Schwarzeneggers terminator but you better fear the programmers that program him.
