Why A.I. Is Not Intelligent

"The heart of the current euphoric expectations for AI is a simple but problematic proposition: the equivalence of function equals intelligence. If using natural language requires intelligence, and a computer can use natural language, then it's intelligent. If it takes intelligence to compose an essay on Charles Darwin, and an AI program can compose an essay on Charles Darwin, then the AI program is intelligent.

"The problem here is this "equivalence is proof of intelligence" is a function of word-traps and false logic, not actual equivalence; what is claimed to be be equivalent isn't equivalent at all. In other words, the source of confusion is how we choose to define "intelligence," which is itself a word-trap..."

"AI is a digital parrot."

Children Die for It Too

“Old men declare war. Young men die for it.”

Herbert Hoover, Chairman of the American Relief Administration mission to Europe and later post-revolutionary Russia after World War I, which fed millions of starving war survivors.

This Was Predicted Mathematically in the 1990s.

Few thought it possible. They were not paying attention. British school children are a fast-diminishing percentage of the population. Do the math for 2036 and what do you see?
