Part 2/11:
At its core, artificial intelligence embodies two fundamental components: the engineering endeavor to replicate human-like capabilities and the philosophical inquiry into the nature of intelligence itself. In this dialogue, John, an accomplished scholar in computer science specializing in AI, and Jordan, a theologian with a vested interest in the implications of AI, navigate the depths of these dual dimensions. Their perspectives help delineate the difference between creating systems that function effectively in complex environments and the deeper philosophical questions regarding what constitutes true intelligence—something distinctly absent in current AI models like ChatGPT.
