Is AI taking on a life of its own? Or is it just a mindless machine? Sly grin why can't we have both?
Some of our earliest Western literature is fraught with the suggestion that one day we might make a machine so complex, it would think for itself. But what would that say about us? Our new, allegregorical way of talking about AI shows that when we fear that our machines might be like us, we're really afraid that we might be like our machines.
