Dr. John, A.I. I think can simulate. However not being biological even with brain tissue involved there is a gap twixt machine and human. Importantly I think work done to date demonstrates what is a difference. The machine lacks the morphogenic field. The machine is truly an our modern idol. “The threat to the religious attitude lies not in science but in the predominant practices of daily life.” writes Erich Fromm in his famous work, “Psychoanalysis and Religion.” He explains that, “man has ceased to seek in himself the supreme purpose of living and has made himself an instrument serving the economic machine his own hands have built. He is concerned with efficiency and success rather than with his happiness and the growth of his soul.” https://www.resonancescience.org/blog/The-Morphogenic-Field-is-Real-and-These-Scientists-Show-How-to-Use-It-to-Understand-Nature

I see the basic flaw of AI is that it is a product of young, uneducated minds who are primarily fascinated by technology. I see the challenges of humanity to be the failures and possibilities of being human, challenges that are best met with education and a knowledge of history.

I look forward to the continual degradation and break down of the current western global financial-economic system. It’s time to move on. It’s a system that has proven to be anti-human. As to off-ramps for imperial courts, “we” tried to do this with the League of Nations, and that did not last very long. The United Nations also seems to have met its limitations. Peer pressure has failed to impose good behavior on nation states. So, if we cannot force gentility on nation-states, how might it be possible to persuade individuals?
