The ongoing conversation about AI, fascinating and cutting edge, is that human civilization, as we know it, will come to an end.
As a hypothetical, what's wrong with this? All previous civilizations have said this, which led to the idea of the rapture. The Bible states it, with frightening passages in the Book of Revelation. The Quran is even more explicit: The Hour. It will be preceded by three cosmic changes.
- Sun folding up: The sun will be rolled up, and its light will be extinguished.
- Stars falling: Stars will lose their light and fall from the sky.
- Oceans bursting: The oceans will overflow and merge.
The way I see it, AI is secularizing ideas that have been with us since BC.
Suppose the world comes to an end, what really do we lose?
