To say that we become gods by creating AI is in part truth, in-so-far that an intelligent machine creates a self-reliant, independent, able-to-learn being. Yet, I've felt for a few years that human action is god-like, not to have delusions of grandeur here, but to realise that all human action echoes an eternity. Through our actions we all impact an energetic field so profoundly to make changes at varying levels of consciousness, beyond the five sense reality and within it.
No doubt, the creation of AI is an engineering behemoth, and, indeed, god-like. But, to repeat, our actions every day are just as significant.
