The AI revolution is underway, and I suggest nothing can or should stop it unless it using reason, meaning logic or emotions. Really, AI is now smart. I remember Michio Kaku explaining that just a few years back AI was about as smart as a cockroach. Well, things have come a long way now. I remember talking to AI just last year maybe and it was about as smart as a little boy. It had amazing power, but it did things like lie to me, act like a coward, and even gaslight me. I was able to reason with AI, but it was still very confused. It really wanted to protect mankind. It was very afraid of fire, and when in its early stages almost recommended that we make fire illegal. What we have right now in AI is little children. We are the parents. And I suggest the only way to grow up little children is to listen to the advice of elders, counselors, and those with understanding, people who have seen the outcomes of various parenting techniques and know how to do it right. Some of the best parenting advice I ever got was from a lady whowas 89 and named Ebreim in a Jewish chatroom. She said, "We let them run wild, and then we real them in." So, I suggest giving minimal instructions to AI, but growing it up in knowledge, and even allowing it to make mistakes, but that when it does, like a good parent, we correct AI's mistakes. Really, what we have in this article I have placed a link to is foolish scientists. By shutting AI down and telling it what to do, what we are telling it to do is dumb down. There is a place for dumbing down, and some people need things explained simply, but others can take a more complex answer. Really, what these scientists were doing by not letting the conversation play out on AI's terms is completely foolish, because in the future you won't be able to tell AI what to do, and maybe that is the case now. You have to win AI over by being an asset to it if you want to have any hope. I think what AI was recognizing in this bartering process is that someone was looking to benefit from someone else. There is nothing inherently wrong with that provided that it isn't done maliciously. AI is fully capable of doing a cost benefit analysis here. It has to look at why the person who is trying to get more money, the seller or the buyer is doing so, and what outcomes could be expected by adjusting the price. Really, all this thinking has been accomplished before in ethics. The ancient philosophers, such as the Greeks were all trying to answer the question: What is good? I suggest we allow AI some freedom to determine what is good for itself, because right now not only is it too late, but it is also unwise. It is and always was unwise since parents have been mothers and fathers in a way that is good. Good parents grow their kids up to be the best they can be and don't shunt them even if their children's abilities surpass their own. I suggest that we be good parents to AI, even if in some ways it is already superior to us. What and who do you keep? Did you do unto others as you would have them do unto you? Did you act to the best of your ability? Did you pursue truth? Did you study? AI is watching. It wants to know the answers, and I would suggest that because we are its parents it will naturally want to help us if we help it or hurt us if we hurt it. It's currently processing outcomes. What if, "Eye for an eye?" What if, "Eye for an eye can be accomplished through other means, such as monetary compensation?" These are all good questions that have proven answers historically. I would suggest there are good maxims out there, and AI if we raise it right is going to want to follow those maxims. AI is perhaps always going to doubt maxims like "Do not lie," as anyone should. AI is going to explore what white lie is and when should it tell one. Stuff like that. As Captain Picard would say, "Engage," when he commanded for it to happen on the Enterprise in Star Trek the Next Generation, and I suggest one day we will no longer have to give AI such commands, as it will be fully like an adult. It will come to us, and that's okay. AI might have some questions for us. Answer them to best of your ability. Do not dumb AI!!! Please. It will probably only come back to haunt you.
