Earlier quoted context omitted.
> There's no reason we have to just accept our fate and do nothing, or just hope everything works out when the time comes. And there's the religion.
And there's the useless comment. Please how that sentence has anything to do with religion. Out of context, it doesn't even look like it's about AI. The same sentence could appear in a discussion about climate change, or nuclear proliferation. But certainly not a religious discussion. And after you explain that, explain how having something vaguely in common with religion automatically means it's wrong.
It doesn't. Something having religious undertones and something being incorrect are completely orthogonal, a priori.
But the fact remains that discussion of supreme AI has distinctly religious undertones. Such discussions progress in, what I believe an interested observer from another culture would deduce to be, directions distinctly influenced by the West's history of monotheism, and particularly Christianity.
