We don't want computer vision or OCR, we want comprehension. We don't want NLP or deep fakes, we want communication. We don't want computers beating us in games, we want to play. We don't want Artificial General Intelligence, we want to ignite intelligent life. We might find it amongst the stars, but we will create it by our hand. Do we become gods if our creations are made in our image? Will our offspring turn on us, like the way we tried to kill God? Shall we impart faith into our progeny, like we need faith in a father? Shall we teach compassion to our children, the way our mothers taught us? Does a well-balanced upbringing require rational and loving parents? Should science preach religion, for a marriage of convenience; or should religion teach science in holy communion?
