A.I. as the Earth's Guardian: Solutions for Humanity's Future
Written on
Chapter 1: The Core Challenge
As we ponder the future of technology, the question arises: what major issue do you believe will be resolved next? The possibilities are numerous, each more fascinating than the last. However, my focus gravitates toward the fundamental challenge: how can we effectively manage our planet and ensure the survival of our species? Unlike Elon Musk and Stephen Hawking, who advocate for leaving Earth, I believe we should explore solutions here first.
In a more plausible scenario, imagine that Artificial Intelligence is tasked with addressing the myriad problems plaguing our planet, with a primary directive to preserve humanity. After all, a straightforward solution might be to eliminate humanity altogether, but that’s not a viable option. With this directive in mind—and perhaps some guidelines to uphold the quality of life as outlined by the United Nations—we can trust AI to devise a comprehensive plan for planetary rescue.
Chapter 2: The Simplicity of Solutions
Interestingly, this task appears to be quite manageable. It’s almost as if it were child's play—an assertion I make with sincerity. The problems and their solutions are often apparent, and children frequently stumble upon them instinctively. For instance, if people are starving, why not share food? Or, if our forests are essential for our survival, why are we destroying the Amazon rainforest?
We often find ourselves immersed in a complex game filled with arbitrary constructs and invented values. Deep down, we recognize this reality, but our involvement in the system makes it difficult to apply this objective understanding.
If we could step back, we would realize that the lines on maps are mere illusions; they are constructs without real significance. Countries and borders exist only in our minds, supported by systems that reward individuals to act as guards at these imaginary boundaries.
Similarly, concepts like "the stock market" or "the economy" are also constructs. Much of the money we discuss doesn’t actually exist; it’s simply a game piece assigned arbitrary value—often manipulated and subject to deception. Engaging in financial transactions may feel real, but from a broader perspective, such as that of AI, these transactions are merely part of an invented game.
Thus, the primary issue we face is not the complexity of the problems themselves but rather our perception of them. This might explain why some, like Elon Musk, are so eager to explore Mars.
