Real Artificial Intelligence vs. Fake Artificial Intelligence
Artificial intelligence (AI) remains a loosely-defined and often misunderstood term. We, humans, are full of biases and prejudices, like the so-called anthropomorphic mentality: "the attribution of distinctively human-like feelings, mental states, and behavioral characteristics to inanimate objects, animals, and in general to natural phenomena and supernatural entities". We like everything around us to be like us, anthropomorphizing religious figures, animals, the environment, and technological artifacts (from computational artifacts to robots), including AI, which is developed as replicating humans in the body, mind and behavior. The human body, brain, intelligence, mind and behavior, all are the (privileged) sources of inspiration for AI, both as models to emulate and goals to achieve. Thus, the human body, brain and behavior are projected on human-like AI models, algorithms and applications, or robots, with all the consequences, like a highly probable future of "Extinction", synthetics vs. humans. It is clear and plain that such an AI/ML/DL is the Highway Road to Technological Unemployment and Omnicide (Anthropogenic Human Extinction), the termination of Homo Sapiens as a species. Of all possible scenarios of omnicide as climate change, global nuclear annihilation, biological warfare, ecological collapse, and emerging technologies, as biotechnology or self-replicating nanobots, the most real one is a human-replicating machine intelligence and learning (MIL) and cognitive technologies imitating cognitive functions/skills, capacities/capabilities.
