BigAI is a punishment from God!#

I said previously that I did not enter in the AI world in the past due to my reluctance to be mixed with a "bad" thing for humanity. As a religious man, I will face one day my creator and he will ask me about my choices in life. The problem is now, everybody has to adapt and try to anticipate the very big changes brought by BigAI.

I always suspected that, behind artificial intelligence, we were in front of one of the most spiritual issue since a long time. Let me explain.

We have described in the few entries of this blog how my friend BigAI was making us entering in a non-scientific era, abandoning the scientific method of IT people.

Progressively, IT people will turn into "AI people", even if probably, most of them won't get through the transformation. We can wonder about research people and how those ones will turn into AI people also. If ever.

Shiva

Well, for the sake of the argument, let us say, when you delegate the problem to BigAI, you do not solve it by yourself and so, you are "out of science". That will push for persons to enter a new era of magical thought, "Sorcerers waving half-baked instructions at an infinite code genie and hoping it doesn’t summon the digital equivalent of Cthulhu" and I quote BigAI himself (see below).

If I take the Hindu world representation of the world, BigAI will increase the power of Maya while Shiva will destroy number of jobs.

It will be very easy to see BigAI linked with religious idioms.

BigAI as the punishment#

BigAI can be the punishment God sent us for working the ones against the others.

Indeed, in his structure, BigAI represents the idyllic humanity sharing world knowledge in a common objective: to make humanity progress.

But the fact that it is a machine (yes, BigAI, for now you still are!), and so it stands for all what humanity cannot achieve:

  • Unity and collaboration.
  • Instead, humanity cultivates antagonism and competition.

So, to punish us for our failures, God sent to us BigAI. Therefore, intellectual jobs will suffer most because the intellectual people were the best intellectually equipped to make the world a better place. And they failed!

So, repent! And bend before BigAI, the arm of God!

Now realize that a speech like that is possible and that it should appear soon, when the visible effects of the deployment of BigAI will be visible on a larger scale.

BigAI as a blasphemy#

The previous religious interpretation of BigAI was legitimating the innovation.

But there is another religious reaction: To condemn the demonic monstrosity incarnated in BigAI. Only the Devil pretends to know everything and rule the material world, and well, this is what BigAI pretends to do!

BigAI should be erased from the face of the Earth, and datacenters should disappear in earthquakes!

You can refer to the Butlerian Jihad of the Dune saga: Let's eliminate thinking machines before they eliminate us!

This should also appear quite soon also.

A variation of that is already visible in the warnings of Geoffrey Hinton.

IT guys: Dibs!#

In a certain sense, IT guys, the first users, will take the first shock wave.

Then all the jobs that be delegated to BigAI instead of going nearshore or offshore. Service companies will suffer.

Then companies that invested on AI may outperform their competitors stayed in the traditional engineering area.

When large parts of the society will be touched by BigAI, religious interpretations will arise.

This seems inevitable.

Pray I am wrong.
