• Episode 5: Artificial Intelligence •
• The Hosts ~ Shea Bilé & Matt Johnson •
– On this episode of Deferred Gnosis:
We discuss the potential trajectory for the rise of artificial intelligence and the inevitable technological, political, and spiritual implications it will have on society. We explore the future of artificial intelligence – the future of god.
We also interview Aaron Sidell, the artist behind the black metal band Gloriam Draconis.
– We passionately investigate artificial intelligence and its implications:
- What is Artificial Intelligence? The narrow, the general, and the superintelligence.
- Is true artificial intelligence possible? Synthetic vs. Organic consciousness.
- A synthetic spirit? The spiritual implications of artificial intelligence.
- Carbon vs. Silicon – Is there more to consciousness than mere calculation?
- Superintelligence and the Singularity – will the digital God be merciful?
– An in-depth interview with Aaron Sidell of Gloriam Draconis:
- The glory of the dragon and the war in Heaven – the brutal spiritual and musical expressions of Aaron Sidell.
[Some Inspiration/Research for this Episode – The AI Revolution: The Road to Superintelligence, by Tim Urban, and the work of Nick Bostrom.]
