two presets

Two presets for this film. First, is it possible for artificial intelligence to have self-awareness? Daniel Dennett believes that people are just a special machine, and "human consciousness is just a by-product of the operation of a special kind of computer." Google chief futurist Kurz Vail believes it's only a matter of time before machines become self-aware, that's for sure. The negative school believes that artificial intelligence can be extremely powerful, and its complex computing power surpasses that of human beings, but they are still programmed and commanded, and they "have no subjective awareness of what they are doing, and they have no sense of what it is doing. The task also has no perception." The film's point of view is the latter, the negative. Human beings have many defects themselves, greed, selfishness, hatred... The ecology of the earth has been severely damaged, so the last human beings gave instructions to AI: create perfect humans. Since everything depends on the algorithm, AI can of course eliminate imperfect people, improve their genes, cultivate, eliminate, improve, and finally pass the experiment on the 3rd. But I personally think that this is not the end, so AI has become a god-like role at that time. If human beings have any imperfections that AI thinks are not perfect, they will still be eliminated. Second, is good and evil innate? Is human nature inherently good or inherently evil? Here is a piece of historical data. The Tassadai were discovered in 1971 on the isolated island of Mindanao in the Philippines. The study found that this small tribe of food-gatherers lived a life without aggression for at least 600 years. They did not have the concepts of "weapons", "hostility", and "anger". It can be said that they are innate good people. At the same time, however, the Fintu were discovered in Papua New Guinea, a tribe of fierce warriors who constantly fought with bows and arrows. This information comes from Stavrianos' "General History of the World", which concludes that human beings are neither peace-loving nor war-loving, neither are they inclined to cooperate or to aggression. It is not their genes that determine human behavior, but the way they are taught to behave by the society in which they live. The film is based on this point of view: Good and evil depend on the acquired social environment, or education changes people. Of course, it is believed that the genes of the embryos must also be perfected. It is not accurate to express good and evil here. It is similar to the problem of "The Cave", which was also mentioned in the film. In desperate situations, it is not right for everyone to conspire to kill one person to get food, but if someone takes the initiative to sacrifice, Can cannibalism be at ease? How to choose between individuals and groups? The world is one, the world of ants and bees? If human beings really create such a god-like artificial intelligence, is it a blessing or a curse? Forgive me for my bluntness, I don’t understand.
