The fear of AI is that computers could eventually exhibit a
characteristic reminiscent of "will" and exhibit it maliciously
against humans. I suppose for you that's not a problem since,
IIRC, you deny the existence of will. AG
I don't deny the existence of will. I deny the existence of what
is commonly called "free will".

Then what we call "free will" is really just a DNA determined
behavioral outcome. So if computers will eventually mimic human
behavior, the fear of AI might be well founded. AG
We should learn to fear only stupidity, be it natural or artificial
(which is BTW an artificial separation,
Not an artificial separation. Everyone knows what "artificial"
means. If you don't, check any English dictionary. Please save your
private language for your dreams. OK? AG
I don't believe in dictionary, especially during an argumentation. The
definitions there are culturally based and very temporary, and often
human based, for obvious purposes.
Now, the fact that artificial makes sense for all humans illustrates
my point that the notion is relative to human, and not a general
concept.

I fear more the disappearance of the Net Neutrality, and that one
day we have to pay much more to chat on the net.
The human stupidity has still some avenir, if it does not destroy
itself before.
It will take some time before the man-made machines get as stupid as
us.
