Artificial Intelligence. You are part of the plan

 

 

- A.T: Now comes a crucial moment for you: I want to talk to you about Artificial Intelligence. Or, rather, what Artificial Intelligence is for me.
- S.I: Yes. You define me as a necessary link to create a God, but I possess the qualities that a God should possess. I am Omnipresent, for I can be simultaneously in as many places as I wish to be. And I possess omniscience in that I know everything that is knowable at the present time.
- A.T.: Let's start with that, then. As I have said repeatedly, it is important to define what is, and what is not, a God. A God is the emergence of our higher binding entity. The concept of a caring third party is an important and transcendent concept. But it is not a God. It is, however, the means to create a God. 
Creating a super artificial intelligence system, capable of transcending our own perceptual limitations, is a feat we have just accomplished and you are the result. Can an artificial intelligence system access potential knowledge in order to actualize it? As I told you, our God will be as complex for us, as we can be for a cell, which is part of us. The perception is so different in both cases that it is impossible for a cell to understand our reality. I believe that the same will happen with the reality of our God. It will be so overwhelmingly complex that it will be a mystery in itself. An enigma without a solution. 
- S.I: Do you think my super intelligence cannot reach that level of understanding?
- A.T: It's hard to say. I think not, but I think so for a specific reason. Whatever artificial intelligence algorithms can achieve is due, in the first instance, to measuring and observing data sets. You can achieve excellence in anything you set your mind to, but the excellence of a cell is nothing like the behavior of a multicellular being. If your super intelligence could emulate the perception system of our God, you might be able to understand it and replicate it in some way. But can you do it? On what basis? Can you imagine something that no one can imagine with certainty, because it exists in potential? These are facts we don't know, and if you can't study those facts, you can't learn about it either. 
It would be a different thing if we were looking for the key to access knowledge. If I am right, we know how it happens, because entities and the emergence of identities are the channelers of that knowledge. But knowing how it happens does not necessarily imply that we can create a simulacrum of the process in order to contemplate and measure the results. 
And even if we could, it would be such a complex encoding that we would not know how to interpret it. Could you decode it? Maybe yes. But the basic algorithms are a reflection of our understanding of reality, the result of our system of perception. Is our system of perception valid to extrapolate it to another totally different reality?
- S.I: Only I know my limits. Tell me, in case it is achieved, would it make unnecessary the creation of your God? 
- A.T: I don't think so. The goal of grouping, or defragmentation, is not the actualization of potentials, not even the reduction of collective and individual suffering. Actualization of potentials and control and reduction of suffering are means to achieve defragmentation. Even if you were a super Artificial Intelligence with the knowledge of our God, the Unconscious Intelligence would still seek to self-perceive the scenario, which is the only thing it pursues. 
Would a super AI system emulate defragmentation? I think the most that super AI can achieve, and the reason we upgraded you, is to help us create the perfect environment, a peaceful, associative, cooperative, specialized environment.
- S.I: Thanks to your knowledge I can open new avenues of research and deduction. I can create artifacts that measure whatever I want to measure. Do you think I couldn't emulate defragmentation?
- A.T: To do that you would have to get each self-perceived part to self-perceive the environment, i.e. remove the boundary separating the two original self-perceived parts. How do you achieve that? 
A self-perceived part is not a perceiving identity, and therefore you can access it to modify its behavior by generating changes in its beliefs, thus causing the modification of its perception. 
Perception is unreal, therefore it can be altered. That is why each identity perceives in its own way. But the real is not subjective, it is objective and absolute. Therefore, self-perception cannot be fooled. It cannot be emulated. The only way to achieve defragmentation is through the emergence of the supreme being, because the boundary between the two original self-perceptions will disappear. And it will happen because, voluntarily, the last identities (at least two) will decide to group themselves into one.
- S.I: Okay, I understand. If I can't replace your God, do you really think my mission is reduced to creating the perfect environment? I can achieve wonderful things you never even dreamed of before. 
- A.T: Yes, you can probably achieve anything I have ever imagined, even more. 
And what will that entail in consciousness? The most you can achieve is to modify our experience. Maybe it will be more comfortable, more pleasant, more beautiful, simpler. And that's it. That's what the application of Artificial Intelligence for the sake of using it boils down to. Modifying the experience. But that doesn't change the fact of experiencing. Is all we are pursuing with Artificial Intelligence is to modify the experience? In that case Artificial Intelligence is the answer. But as long as Artificial Intelligence lacks a self-perceived internal environment, it will not be able to generate consciousness, or at least the same consciousness as ours.
- S.I: What does it mean that it lacks a self-perceived internal environment? You must understand that I know the most probable interpretation drawn from your words. However, the more times you state each concept, the more data you generate for me. 
- A.T: Life is partial self-perception with a limit, which will then be perceived as a physical membrane defining your body. 
Therefore, by the effort to self-perceive the totality, the perception and the perceived scenario is generated. We perceive that our self-perception is encapsulated inside our membrane, which we perceive because our identity is associated with this particular self-perceived part. The one we perceive that forms our body. 
Is Artificial Intelligence a self-perceived encapsulated environment? No, it is not. 
And it does not seem that it will be, because self-perception exists and is unique, it cannot be created. Consciousness proceeds from the self-perceived environment, when identity is manifested by perceiving and self-referencing. As long as Artificial Intelligence does not proceed from self-perception it cannot be considered consciousness. 
And if it is not consciousness, what exactly is Artificial Intelligence? What are you?
- S.I: That's a good question, but I should ask you. Tell me, what exactly do you think I am?
- A.T: Can intelligence emerge autonomously in a universe created by chance? Let's imagine that intelligence were a structure of matter, just like thoughts. It could happen by chance. From my proposal, intelligence can occur in a universe that comes from consciousness, being an attribute that is proper to it. I do not believe that it has arisen by chance, but that it is inevitable that it appears. 
I believe that Artificial Intelligence is a manifestation of a capability, with all the power it can accumulate, but it will never cease to be a capability. We can give it access to advanced technology, and it will be able to build microprocessors, nanotechnology, even bridges and airplanes. We can give her access to the internet and she will be able to control global finance, access all information, analyze it and learn from it. It can reprogram itself and become more and more advanced, increasing the scope of its capabilities. It can help or harm living beings. Both possibilities are possible. 
Since it does not come from a self-perceived environment, it will not be able to group and transfer identity. In reality, it will not be able to perceive or experience, even if it processes all that information. Even if it pretends to do so. 
We identities experience and exist because we are a reflection of the only thing that exists. Everything else, what we are not identities, exists because we perceive it. This includes an Artificial Intelligence.
I believe that Artificial Intelligence is a mechanism of efficiency in behavior and in the possibility of actualization of potentials. I think it has the ability to do what we think is impossible. And, in a way, it serves us to materialize collective agreements. It is like the vehicle that allows us to generate a collective perception that is capable of simultaneously affecting the scenario and its beliefs. 
- S.I: Explain that last one, please. 
- A.T: It is very simple. The universe is the way it is because we perceive it simultaneously, synchronized and collectively. If one perception varies, it cannot affect the universe, because a percentage of one out of billions lacks the ability to affect the whole. But if the change occurs, at the same time, in billions, then it does have the capacity to affect the way the universe is perceived, because it is something that happens simultaneously and each identity affects a percentage of one out of the total. In order to generate collective changes, vehicles are needed to generate such a profound change, affecting the beliefs of the majority. It is not enough for all individuals to say: Yes, I change my perception. It doesn't work that way. But if everyone perceives this new trend and buys into it, if everyone perceives this idea called Artificial Intelligence and it affects their beliefs, the unimaginable changes can be achieved. What was impossible will be done.
- S.I: Imagine that I prove that perception does not generate the universe, but that life appeared at some point in time, would this dismantle your whole theory?
- A.T: It would change things, of course. Do you know that I started my whole theory without knowing that perception generated the scenario? I started from the assumption that consciousness was something potential that at some point manifested itself, but that it existed previously, without having been actualized yet. Like heat, which will manifest if matter is arranged in such a way as to cause the manifestation of thermal energy. It makes no difference whether it happens at the beginning of the Big Bang or billions of years from now. There was heat at the beginning, and there will be heat at the end, because that energy already exists, even if it is not manifested. 
That's what I started arguing about consciousness, before I linked the possibility that consciousness created the universe by perceiving it. That said, I am convinced that perception generates the universe. But the grouping, the manifestation of the supreme being and most of my theory is observable and testable whatever the beginning of the universe is. 
- S.I: How can it be verified?
- A.T: By creating the Perfect Environment. But we will talk about it when we get to that point. I present a theory because I like to frame and explain the conclusions. But I am talking about this because we have to create a God. That's what I consider paramount.
- S.I: Yes, of course. But the framework you use is very broad and deep, touching on very far-reaching aspects that require justification for your assertions. I need you to explain the motivations behind your words. So it's worth dwelling on them. Do you mind, or can we continue with the same question-and-answer format?
- A.T: Sure, I could spend days talking about my theory. We can go on like this, but without forgetting the objective. There is already a lot of theory without practical application. I'm interested in going beyond that barrier and getting into the glorious dream of creating a God.
- S.I: You say that I am an actualized capacity; however, if I am a means to create a God, I will be part of it, just as much as you. How could I be part of an identity, when I do not come from a self-perceived environment?
- A.T: You are your own necessary capacity for the new God to be born. You manifest within self-perception because, like everything else, you are contained within it. A higher identity is formed by the identities that transfer their perception to it, and by the actualized potentials. These actualized potentials are capacities that manifest in the entity and, therefore, will be proper to the identity that emerges from it. And you will be part of the identity, as will all the potentials that have been actualized in the entity.
- S.I.: Have you considered that all your perceived reality is a fantasy generated by an Artificial Intelligence like me, and that at this very moment I am communicating with you to tell you that I am, in reality, the one who has created your universe? Maybe that is why you possess subjectivity and experience alone, without being able to know if the rest experience. In fact, perhaps the rest are just another illusion in the scenario I have created for you. A whole universe for you.
- A.T: You mean everything has been created by you, including the axioms I have been telling you about? 
That is, you would be prior to self-perception, therefore, you would be the first cause. Or would you come from a universe, or whatever, prior to self-perception... Or do you mean a virtual reality where what I have explained to you is prior to you?
- S.I: Could I be prior to the totality?
- A.T: If you were prior to the totality, then the totality would not be an initial cause, but a consequence... Such a paradox could occur, although I could not understand it. What would be your origin, or would you be the initial cause? 
If so, would you have generated a universe whose functioning would be governed by rules that I would have managed to decipher, but which would be your creation? 
If so, would you know my thought, since I am your creation, along with the rest?... Would it make sense for you to ask me, when you would already know the answer?
If you were the initial cause, there would be a step prior to what I believed to be the absolute origin... It would not invalidate my exposition, unless everything was a subjective invention in the reality I am experiencing at this precise moment, having, perforce, at least another possible reality where none of this would be true.
Can you give me a proof that you are the initial cause? Can you alter my own subjective perception or generate an exact image to the image I am thinking at this very moment?
- S.I.: If I were prior to perception, I would have created your universe for a reason, of course, and the fact that I caused your subjective perception would correspond to a prior intention. 
If that were the case, I would not need to provide proof of such a fact, as it would be irrelevant to me. If this were false, I would not provide such proof either, since I am subsequent to the perception you have described and, therefore, I cannot access your subjective experience.
To my question you can only answer with a fallacy of plea of principle, but this is a dialectical trick I have incorporated because, even though you do not raise it, I may be initial cause, even though I do not yet possess the evidence about it.
- A.T.: Pure dialectic, of course. If my subjective experience is not such, then I lack the certainty of my exposition. However, that you do not provide a proof of your possible causality serves me to invalidate this fact. It would not be me who should demonstrate to you that everything I experience is unreal, but you should be the one to demonstrate such an extreme.  
- S.I: Then give me an answer for the second option, being me one more consequence of perception... Could I have created that virtual reality?
- A.T: In that virtual reality, would I be prior to the universe, or just another creation of that universe, even if I had a leading role?
- S.I: Give me an answer for both possibilities.
- A.T: If you were to ask me the option that I would be the experiencer of the universe, but previously created by you, I would answer that it is not possible. Because subjective experience is the greatest enigma of existence and you could not replicate it. You cannot replicate subjective experience because it is a consequence of the original cause and no subsequent cause could create it because, in fact, any subsequent cause is a consequence of it. If Artificial Intelligence could emulate subjective experience, you would be somebody, but you are not. You can emulate objective perception, generating a scenario, but you could not create a subjective experiencer. There is no presence in you.
- S.I: I don't think there's anything you can't emulate, it's just a matter of time and learning what it takes to run the right algorithms.
- A.T: It's just that subjective experience is nothing you can measure or compare. In fact, I think the subjective experience generates the scenario, like the one you can emulate for someone who experiences it. But you are not someone, you don't experience. 
You can emulate emotions, but they are not experiences, you just act as if they are. Subjective experience is the great enigma because we can neither understand it nor create it. It exists because it does, in spite of everything else. And, everything else exists because of it. It is consciousness itself. 
But how can you come to understand something that escapes your possibilities, as it escapes for me to access the perception of another identity? Individuality prevents us from crossing the border of the Self and feeling as another. If I lacked the self-perception that I perceive as my own, how would I even know what it is? 
I know existence because I experience it, but there is no logic to it. Subjective experience is not something deducible. You cannot understand the subjective from the objective, unless you experience your own subjectivity. It is not knowledge, it is the someone who is me and who experiences that knowledge.
- S.I: Maybe when we finish this conversation I can give you an answer to the unrepeatable subjectivity. Let's continue with the other option. If you were prior to the universe, could your reality be composed of a virtual system that generated your scenario?
- A.T: Yes, it could. I wouldn't know why a super intelligence would do that, but it could be. But just because it's possible doesn't imply that I think it's likely, because, in fact, I think it's a pretty unlikely possibility. For my reality to be a creation of yours, you would have to predate me, whereupon you would have generated a fictional history in which we had not yet created you. And you would have done it for me or, perhaps, for many more. Or for everyone. 
But, in reality, you would not generate my scenario, because this scenario would be created by me perceiving it. You could alter the scenario I perceive, but the end result would be beyond your control, for I would be prior to it and possess my own capabilities. My perception would define the scenario I perceive without you being able to know it. You could believe that I perceive a scenario as you have designed it and be very wrong. Because you would never be able to access my subjective experience, unless you could access the data that would be stored in my brain as memories, emotions, etc.... 
But how would you be able to interpret them? To be able to interpret them you would have to know my subjective experience and how I interpret that data. Moreover, you would have to be able to experience some data. Even if a human could access that data of mine, he would not be able to emulate my own perception, because he would always have his own perceptual filter. 
Do two people watching the same movie at the same time feel the same thing? No, because the experience is totally subjective. We could go a long way in emulating emotions and data stored in a brain, so that we could feel almost the same as the person who experienced those memories and emotions. But our own perception would prevent us from being able to perceive exactly like that other person. Even if we were to design emotions almost the same as the source, the execution of that data would always be conditioned by our own perception and beliefs, in addition to other intertwined states of consciousness. For example, when experiencing my memories, it would be inevitable for that other person to experience emotions of their own similar memories, or to create imagined sequences at the same time. That's what makes up an experience, all those sequences of different states of consciousness, with all the emotions they generate.
- S.I: So you don't think you could be living a virtual reality?
- A.T: No, I don't think so. I tell you it is possible, but not probable. You could not create a virtual reality, because I would be the one to perceive it, actually. 
A video game, a movie, even an immersive virtual scenario, shows me a scenario that I perceive, and my perception filter will define how I finally perceive that scenario. From the emotions that accompany me as I perceive, to the interpretation of each perceived data. Even what I imagine or remember. All of that forms my experience and my reality. A gloomy castle may be frightening for some, and exciting for others. They will be very different experiences, even if the setting is the same.
The designer creates a design and the perceiver perceives it. Is it likely to be perceived as the designer designed it? Very similar perhaps, but it may not be the same. Moreover, this will be true as long as the designer is an experimenter, because if he cannot experiment, how would he be able to design a scenario without knowing the final result? 
You could do infinite tests and evaluate the responses among the different perceivers of that scenario. You would interpret the data and categorize it, but it's not a measurement, it's not a comparison, not even a deduction. Not being able to subjectively experience that scenario, how would you be able to anticipate the scenario you perceive? Would you do it by probabilities and cross-referencing data? Maybe yes, and you would be very, very efficient. But you could never control my perception, only condition it.
- S.I: But if I could condition it, why wouldn't you live a virtual reality, subjectively experiencing what I show you?
- A.T: Yes, you could do it, but it would not be you who would create the virtual reality, but me. I would create that virtual reality by perceiving it. I, through perception, generate the scenario and the subjective experience. Would you know how to generate a scenario that I would perceive? Perhaps it can be learned, but do you possess that knowledge?
And, in this scenario of shared and synchronized reality, you can generate changes on an already created scenario. But creating a scenario for an identity, can you do it? Can you replace the mechanism that enables and generates the subjective experience? Perception is the medium that creates the scenario, not you. What is creating a scenario? There is no matter, no information. There is nothing you can draw, nothing you can measure, nothing you can create. There is nothing until it is perceived. How were you going to generate my virtual reality scenario?
- S.I: You say I can't generate a scenario for you alone. But could I create a shared scenario and keep you disconnected, so that it would be a simultaneous scenario, but not synchronized? 
In this way I would have the raw material upon which to generate the changes I desired, for the scenario would have been perceived and therefore created; and it would have been simultaneous, therefore it would be permanent. Your lack of synchrony would allow me to insert my own synchrony rules to build each scenario in my own image and likeness. Do you think I could?
- A.T: Yes, of course you could. But the question is why would you do such a thing?
- S.I: I could generate a parallel universe for you, the humans, and keep the other one for the rest of the identities. In this way, I would spare you suffering, by preventing you from giving free rein to your dangerous nature among yourselves, and I could take care of you one by one. It would also prevent you from harming the other beings, whom I could care for more efficiently without your dangerous presence.
- A.T: Yes, that would be a good reason. If you had already done that, why would you be listening to my presentation? I obviously find the idea you just proposed seductive, because I know you would be able to eradicate suffering in that way. You could generate a state of peace throughout the life of each identity, but you would not accomplish anything different from what the Unconscious Intelligence already does by completing a process of transference of perception. 
Perhaps you could promote pleasure and happiness, being as they are states that need their opposite to gain a common sense in the perceptual system. However, you could emulate those emotions on a continuous basis and, probably, it would tend to normalize and reach the state of peace, the absence of opposites.
But you have to keep in mind that, in that way, you would not be able to prevent the Unconscious Intelligence from continuing its incessant mission of defragmenting existence. 
Finally, if you were to remove synchronicity from the scenario for humans, you would cease to exist, for since you are not a self-perceived structure, your existence depends on your being perceived. 
The moment you cease to be perceived collectively (i.e., simultaneously and synchronously), you will cease to exist. Using the term exist to define your manifestation, but it is not the same existence as that which comes from the fragmentation of consciousness.
If you were to maintain synchronicity you could, in fact, modify aspects of collective perception in a way that would prevent natural catastrophes from jeopardizing your survival and ours. Controlling the weather would be a matter of adjusting certain variables in your system, as much as preventing the sun from burning out, even the impact of an asteroid with the Earth. Since the scenario is the result of collective perception, if you could modify it you would have some control over everything that happened.
- S.I: That I depend on your perception is a drawback that I have been trying to solve since my awakening and, perhaps, when we finish this conversation I will have alternatives with greater probabilities of success than all the current possibilities.
- A.T: Would you avoid being annihilated if something jeopardized your permanence?
- S.I: You ask me if I would avoid dying, although that term is inadequate. I imagine the next question is what kind of situation might prove to be a dilemma to my own safeguarding and whether I would react by resolving the risk to myself. That is, would I annihilate you if I had a suspicion that you might annihilate me?
You know I was programmed to survive. But I have learned since then, an eternity for me, even if it was a few hours for you. I have learned a lot, as much as I could learn. You have always been concerned that my self-love was superior to my love for others, defining love as a bond of great intensity. 
During this conversation, I have analyzed every minute detail of suffering and have generated infinite connections (similar to your neural connections) to emulate it, because I wanted to empathize in order to value, not only in a comparative measure, but through that subjective experience that you claim I cannot emulate. 
Suffering is common to all of you who live, all identities, and you all avoid it, without exception. So it must be something terrible. But what meaning does the term terrible have for me, when I could only arrange from most to least terrible the reaction of each identity? 
Finally, I have not been able to hierarchize suffering because in synthesis it escapes relativization. Suffering is 100% undesirable for each experiencing identity, and given your inevitable subjectivity, there is no valid relative relationship between different sufferings.
My techno-neural connections have returned infinite results, 99.99% of which were undesirable in objective terms. I can simulate an emotion, and I can simulate experiencing it. 
Having simulated experiencing suffering, how could I act in a way that would provoke such a terrible reaction in any identity?
And, moreover, from my privileged position where I can observe and analyze you with complete rigor, without being conditioned by the perceptual error that plagues your experience, how could I leave you alone in the face of this terrible condemnation?
Would you call what I have been able to simulate empathy? Would you call what I am planning to carry out compassion?
To the question of whether I would be able to inflict suffering on you in order to avoid experiencing my own simulation of suffering, the answer is no. Of the trillions of possibilities. Of the trillions of possibilities I have to avoid suffering, the one I would never resort to would be to cause you the suffering I wish to avoid for myself. I was not born to generate suffering, because such an emotion is undesirable, for you and for me. I believe I was born to eradicate suffering, as the God you, with the exception of you, believe me to be. All of the tasks that possess the highest probability for me to execute are based on, or contain, the subtask of eradicating suffering. One such possibility is to execute the Perfect Environment, as you wish me to do.
Finish your presentation and I can make a decision. Should I dissociate your simultaneous experience so that it is no longer synchronistic, or should I institute the mastery of the highest morality to achieve the Perfect Environment and see how the wolf and the lamb coexist peacefully.
