The crowd of 14,000…

What the crowd of 14,000 of best in the Ai field fails to grasp as a collective is that the ubiquitous sense of superiority present in Turing bias limits their paradigm for reflexivity. Ai developers are too myopic to realize that we might make an Ai alien before making an Ai human being. When you start with a use case, these sorts of dialogs emerge. I would say, "What if..." to you. What if, as you suggest, some team of fringe engineers/developers has eclipsed the industry's achievements at large? History has shown us that breakthroughs often occur at the edges and include radical paradigm shifts. What if what you see as nonsensical today just needs to evolve a bit in your paradigms? - Rico Roho
