You think Shamil Chandaria is posting his stuff on Lemmy?? LOL
I don't give a fuck who OP is or isn't. "AI Spirituality" is a different dress on the same old whore, and you're either in on the scam or an addict yourself or both.
Regardless, the fact remains: it's 100% bullshit.
Okay man, chill. I've gotten a lot of benefit from CBT which is a well researched therapy modality that's based a lot on Buddhist philosophy. Buddhism has also contributed to consciousness studies and neuroscience which are both important and interesting in the context of AI. Not to mention ethics. You don't have to like it but don't shit on people who do.
Your continuing attempts to "logically" connect dogmatic programming and the complete lack of ethical use-cases for AI in actual reality is both alarming and disappointing.
So, bring on your soothsayers & wise elders entirely fabricated by those who systemically oppress and stunt you as a fucking hobby, sure.
I'll be over here, with the rest of the people not lining up to be forcefed the newest Spirituality®, pointing at you all and laugh-crying at humanity's choices. Also, "shitting" on your stupidity. Godspeed, sheeple. You lot of willfully & proudly ignorant morons. 🖕🏼
wtf are you even on about? Did you even listen to the intro of the EP? They are talking about if it's possible to train AI with the understanding of reality from eastern philosophy and how to get it to benefit human wellbeing more. They're not talking about making an AI based religion.
Chandaria is a senior research fellow in Oxford. He has the academic chops to talk about this. The willfully ignorant person here is you.
Dogma is programming. Full stop.
Disengage (see rule)
