Artiscial Intelligence — Creator, Operatorand Destroyer, Archetype of Brahma,Vishnu & Mahesh

Whether it is man’s desire that is so great that he is creating

technological God or his lack of knowledge that he aspires to cut loose

of the shackles of his biological structure, but this plug and play

mentality that technology has given us is spreading its reach to the

extreme and soon we will be able to do cut-and-paste with genetic

editing.

Let’s look at what AI is capable of.

Arti�cial Intelligence might be producing a useless class of human,

Arti�cial Intelligence might beat us at everything by 2060, or like what

Stephen Hawking warned us that Arti�cial Intelligence could end

mankind.

With this, the message is very loud and clear. You Can’t Ignore AI.

. . .

AI — From “Good for us” to “God for us”Until now, AI was “Good for us” but now AI is becoming like “God forus”, and the Impact of all this is much graver and is grossly

undervalued.

In Hinduism, cosmic functions of creation, maintenance, anddestruction are personi�ed by three deities typically Brahma the

creator, Vishnu the preserver, and Shiva the destroyer/regenerator;

also known as The Trimūrti (/trɪˈmʊərti/;[1] Sanskrit: trimūrti, “three

forms”) is the trinity of supreme divinity.

. . .

CREATOR, The Brahma

OPERATOR, The Vishnu

DESTROYER, The Mahesh/Shiva

. . .

CREATOR, The Brahma

CREATOR, The BrahmaI am a weak, ephemeral creature made of mud and dream. But I feel all

the powers of the universe whirling within me. Quoted by Nikos

Kazantzakis a Greek novelist, poet, playwright, and philosopher

The human species have been surrendering to the God, and at the same

time, man wishes to become God and generate life.

Instead of carbon-based life-form, new technology will create silicon-

based life-form that scientists have long speculated about. We can

certainly perceive that Silicon Valley is trying merging humans with

machines and warning us that otherwise, we become irrelevant.

Now, with advanced 3D printing technologies biological parts like

tissues, organs, heart can be printed; Biobots developed in labs,

something analogous to biological systems or machines of the projected

future world could one day assemble themselves or even self-heal.

. . .

. . .

Humans may merge with machines and proceed to emerge as cyborgs,

and human control over this Arti�cial Intelligence based system will

Page 4: Artificial intelligence — creator, operator and destroyer, story of brahma, vishnu and  mahesh

disintegrate.

Genetically Modi�ed Humans and 3D Printed Life raises some

profoundly serious ethical arguments that we are leaving the sanctity of

mankind on the lab table open all sorts of manipulations.

With this unfolding of the unusual species having the ability to edit

genetics, we stand well in playing God that gives birth to new life.

. . .

OPERATOR, The VishnuFrom sorting cucumbers to curing cancers Arti�cial Intelligence based

algorithms are becoming very prominent in our everyday life.

Amelia, developed by tech �rm IPsoft, is an Arti�cial Intelligence based

software that serves 330,000 residents of one of London’s largest

boroughs. it receives 55,000 calls, 5,000 face-to-face consultations and

100,000 website visits a month and promises that Amelia will tend to

take up some of this demand

Arti�cial Intelligence is already disrupting the business of law, Tim

Berners-Lee, inventor of the web suggests that Arti�cial Intelligence

Page 5: Artificial intelligence — creator, operator and destroyer, story of brahma, vishnu and  mahesh

will run enterprises. We stand not far away from the day when AI will

be running governments

Of course, there’s yet a long way to go and a large amount of work to do

before A.I. becomes more commonplace in government. The Republic

of Estonia is even now enjoying the title of the most advanced digital

society in the world everything is conducted online from coordinating

the development and administration of the national information

system, to help the state provide the best possible services to citizens.

Idea may be far-fetched and absurd too but If exponential trajectories of

technological improvements continue like this we might have AI as our

president some day

. . .

DESTROYER, The MaheshThousands are losing jobs to AI and we continue to see this, The World

Economic Forum (WEF) warned recently that robots, automation, and

AI will replace 5 million human jobs by 2020, and half of all jobs in the

next decade,

The fact of today’s business is that AI cannot be ignored. After replacing

nearly all jobs there arrives a point when AI will threaten humanity as

technology will bring in ‘new ways things can go wrong’ for human

survival.

Page 6: Artificial intelligence — creator, operator and destroyer, story of brahma, vishnu and  mahesh

. . .

In-between, robots will begin doing all things, while a lot of people

derive the meaning of life from their jobs, titles, and possessions; and

once AI will make them useless; “Work is worship won’t be true

anymore”.

Once you realize that you are not needed you become boring. Once

others realize that you have no niche or needed skills they won’t chose

you to be around.

Though there will be tremendous privileges of AI: — eradication of

hunger, elimination of diseases and extension of lifespan; but with self-

regulating super intelligence will neglect you like you ignore ants in

your backyard. It wouldn’t be that they will stand up against us but we

will not grab their attention as we won’t be �t for to add any value

owing to our biological limitations.

. . .

And, The Final Message Is:

If we compete against them, we lose. Rather, we

should use AI to discover what further we human can

do and let AI take over.
