• Episode 5: Artificial Intelligence • • The Hosts ~ Shea Bilé & Matt Johnson • - On this episode of Deferred Gnosis: We discuss the potential trajectory for the rise of artificial intelligence and the inevitable technological, political, and spiritual implications it will have on society. We explore the future of artificial intelligence - the future of god. We also interview Aaron Sidell, the artist behind the black metal band Gloriam Draconis. - We passionately investigate artificial intelligence and its implications: What is Artificial Intelligence? The narrow, the general, and the superintelligence. Is true artificial intelligence possible? Synthetic vs. Organic consciousness. A synthetic spirit? The spiritual implications of artificial intelligence. Carbon vs. Silicon - Is there more to consciousness than mere calculation? Superintelligence and the Singularity - will the digital God be merciful? - An in-depth interview with Aaron Sidell of Gloriam Draconis: The glory of the dragon and the war in Heaven - the brutal spiritual and musical expressions of Aaron Sidell.
