RE: AI And The Field Of Infinite Possibilities

Great post @devann!

Taking to vocations involving the mind and the soul and with more time on their hands, there is a high probability that humans will also gradually and naturally gravitate towards spiritual pursuits. As this shifts take place more and more people will be inclined towards spirituality or agnosticism rather than religiosity or atheism.

I believe that what your write can become true as long as the value generated by AI is equally distributed among humankind. The pursuit of spiritual goals is only possible if your belly is full and you have a roof over your head. So hopefully we will be clever enough to make AI profit everybody on the planet.

Best regards,
Achim

    Yes, that is very true @achim03. Basic needs must be met before human beings are motivated to pursue higher goals. It is a practice in some monasteries and ashrams to serve food (especially to children) before spiritual instruction or practice begins. They know the importance of a full belly.

    Blessed be, devann.
