Artificial intelligence has evolved, with exceptional acceleration experienced over the past decade, to a level of sophistication that has disrupted many of the aspects of modern society. As it has continued its path towards ubiquitous use, questions about how far it can go and what impact it will have on individuals and societies have become more increasingly urgent and less speculative and inquisitive.<\/span><\/p>\n
Many of these questions about the impact of AI go so far as to wonder whether it can eventually replace humans. Many have even wondered whether AI could ever replace God.<\/span><\/p>\n
At the risk of raining on the parade of those who are converts to the \u201cAI-is-everything\u201d religion, I don\u2019t believe either of those situations (replacement of humans and replacement of our Creator by AI) is a remote possibility.
