What if it was better than spirituality? Is it? Could it be?
I believe it is. It works and it fits with our best understanding of reality.
We know information exists. We know software exists. We know computers exist. We know memory exists. Now, we have artificial intelligence that is powered by all of those things. And now there is the arrival of significant artificial intelligence, like GPT3, that is intelligence powered by computation. The next step forward is acceptable and compelling. It requires an open mind and just a little time to think about the idea.
The idea is this: The processing of information in ourselves is a much better understanding of what humanity has called spirituality. And dare I say, it is a superior understanding of ourselves.
Here is an example of just how impressive artificial intelligence is. It can now be used to read x-rays and MRIs and help in the diagnosis of skin cancer.
