> being an embodied consciousness with the ability to create is as divine as it gets
This is a very, very weak criterion for divinity. If this is truly it, we should prepare with great haste for the arrival of our artificial gods.
Because by this (IMO silly) metric it seems they will be more divine than us.
Yeah id argue that all existence is equally sacred. But consciousness is where that is manifest most visibly.
It legitimately scares me that so many proponents of AI don't hold being a living, breathing real-life entity as being important.
Important for what? To enjoy a piece of art one need to know how it was created?
