The “Humane” limitations of AI

Many are suggesting to use AI for finding solutions for the present pandemic and the ensuing socio-economic crisis.

I am sure artificial intelligence can be used for data crunching, running different algorithms.

The problem is that although we mystify AI and think that it can already act, think like what we see in Hollywood movies, in truth AI can only act within the parameters of the program we put in it. And we put that program into AI with our own limited, subjective intellect that is incapable digesting, encompassing reality as it is, in its totality since we only sense and compute a small personal slice from the world that relates to our individualistic, day to day survival.

Thus whatever we devise, build inherently carries in it our own inherent limitations.
So, instead of AI helping us in crisis situations, I would suggest something more realistic, more practical.

Collective Human Intelligence

We can build an “organic super-intelligence”, a collective mind, by purposeful, methodical actions, creating such mutual interconnections between us, that elevates all of us above our inherently egocentric, subjective consciousness, perception.

This collective Human intelligence - we can build through a special, purposeful educational method - very quickly would open a selfless, completely objective, “totalitarian” viewpoint of the world. As a result we could easily detect and solve all the problems - that are the result of our limited, distorted, egocentric and subjective point of view.

Seeing Ahead

Moreover we could easily prevent any future problems, crisis situations since through the new consciousness, perception we achieve similarity with Nature’s system, understanding all the cause and effect processes according to Nature’s evolutionary plan, so we could align ourselves with it, flow with it effortlessly without any obstacles, hiccups.
