Aaah, nevim jak je to mozne, ale mam pocit ze Dune od Franak Herberta me jako me osobni filosoficky provodce intelektualnimi namety naprosto fascinuje.
Zde male zamysleni Franak Herberta na tema AI. V dialogu BG a Bozskeho imperatora.
"And you do not fear the lxians' machine?" Anteac insisted.
"Is automation synonymous with conscious intelligence?" he asked.
Anteac's eyes went wide and filmy as she withdrew into her memories. Leto found
himself caught by fascination with what she must be encountering there within
her own internal mob.
We share some of those memories, he thought.
Leto felt then the seductive attraction of community with Reverend Mothers. It
would be so familiar, so supportive. . . and so deadly. Anteac was trying to
lure him once more.
She spoke: "The machine cannot anticipate every problem of importance to humans.
It is the difference between serial bits and an unbroken continuum. We have the
one; machines are confined to the other."
"You still have the power of reason," he said.
"Share!" Luyseyal said. It was a command to Anteac and it revealed with sharp
abruptness who really dominated this pair-the younger over the older.
Exquisite, Leto thought.
"Intelligence adapts," Anteac said.
Parsimonious with her words, too, Leto thought, hiding his amusement.
"Intelligence creates," Leto said. "That means you must deal with responses
never before imagined. You must confront the new."
"Such as the possibility of the Ixian Machine," Anteac said. It was not a
question.
"Isn't it interesting," Leto asked, "that being a superb Reverend Mother is not
enough?"
His acute senses detected the sudden fearful tightening in both of the women.
Truthsayers, indeed!
"You are right to fear me," he said. Raising his voice, he demanded: "How do you
know you're even alive?"
As Moneo had done so many times, they heard in his voice the deadly consequences
of failure to answer him correctly. It fascinated Leto that both women glanced
at Moneo before either responded.
"I am the mirror of myself," Luyseyal said, a pat Bene Gesserit answer which
Leto found offensive.
"I don't need pre-set tools to deal with my human problems." Anteac said. "Your
question is sophomoric`."
"Hah, hah!" Leto laughed. "How would you like to quit the Bene Gesserit and join
me'?"
He could see her consider and then reject the invitation, but she did not hide
her amusement.
Zvlaste tucna cast texu ukazuje, ze Frank Herber byl vzdelany clovek a filosof. Alistair a Stryx jiste opet poznavaji casti z GEB o zrcadleni a "circular reasoning" ;-D
