If you mean an extremely smart AI which can do anything then no. By Far AI can only do things it was trained on. They can't have any "intuition" for anything (related to science and stuff) which is REQUIRED if you want to create "God"

Why could it not have intuition?

#13You might enjoy reading the Hyperion Cantos which delves into this idea :)

AI can do things it wasn't trained on and has intuition, given the mathematic proofs frontier models have created.
Claiming that AI can only reproduce a subset of its training data is 2022-level and a tired, outdated claim.

#15If you interpret God as the source and giver of money, it already is.
My definition is a bit more philosophical.

It's only maths. Maths can't have intuition.
Edit: on second thought I think I may be wrong here

What I meant was it can only work using the data it only has to either combine them to achieve something or use that data in a better way that humans mostly cannot , those mathematical proofs it gave has nothing to do with it , it only proved it using tiny things humans overlooked. It can't create an entire new concept by itself or it has no intuition it only mimics intuition (as far as I can tell)
At least not till now.
Edit:
(I'm only a student I know the line between intuition and proof finding in clever ways is thin, I'm mostly being biased here because it feels absurd to me. On second thought maybe i am wrong.)

Thanks for the suggestion!
Re: Ask HN: Could AI eventually build god?
#19not god level but something like in upcoming time now we have to work more how should be limit this we have to work more on the validation part now
