RE: AI And The Field Of Infinite Possibilities

Hi Devann!

Thanks for your reply!

I try to be careful with my comments and usually narrow them down to what makes sense to me and I only extend this in a more general manner in very few instances.

I do not completely dismiss the idea of super consciousness but this again is esoteric speculation to me and not based on proven science as far as I know.

The article that you have referenced/linked is based on subjective experiences and anecdotes highlighting the importance of intuition and I wont critique that since I also, I guess all of us, have experiences that we attribute to intuition.

Nevertheless, to me to use intuition as a concept is a approach to dismiss the possibility of knowledge because in some instances we cannot quite put a finger on where this idea, unconfirmed knowledge, hunch, gut feeling ~intuition came from.

Like I wrote before, I'm having a hard time mixing esoteric ideas with science but I also know that in some instances fragments of esoteric ideas later became science.

In conclusion to your article and response, I won't dismiss that the intuition of some in regards to AI developments or a lot of other things are in fact a thing, I'm just not able to tie this to a superiority of people claiming to have super consciousness or an extraordinaire intuition.

Cheers and thanks again for commenting on my reply!
