An explanation of why AI is not susceptible to this affliction can be found
here:
The Myth of The Monstrous Machine
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Virtropy/message/2949
Useless hypotheses, etc.:
consciousness, phlogiston, philosophy, vitalism, mind, free will, qualia,
analog computing, cultural relativism, GAC, Cyc, Eliza, cryonics, individual
uniqueness, ego, human values
We won't move into a better future until we debunk religiosity, the most
regressive force now operating in society.
