Notes About The Poem

an AI

If we create an all-knowing, all-wise and all powerful AI, 
we should probably pay someone to sit next to its electrical plug.

We need to be careful of who is in control of that plug. I still think man is attempting to become godlike. Crazy world.

The only downside Anais, an AI can do a quintillion calculations per second, even a razor sharp mind like yours, might find it difficult to keep up, and know exactly when to pull the plug :) cheers David

For now perhaps! Autonomous AI might be a different kettle of fish ;)

It's all true, but ultimately, AI is just software, it can't exist on it's own.
