--What does it mean to "become a god" not to lose?
We now stand before a question never before faced by humanity.
It’s not a technical question of “Will AI surpass humans?”
It’s a question of “Can AI possess love?”
And conversely,
“Will humans be able to continue to choose love in the future?”
What is love? A choice that betrays efficiency
Love is not an emotion.
It is not kindness or sympathy.
Love is
● Even when you know you will lose out,
● Even when there is a possibility of being hurt,
● Even when you know it is not the right answer.
It is the will to continue to choose others.
Love is always “irrational.”
Rationality, efficiency, correctness, survival strategy—
It is the choice to betray others despite understanding all of these.
That is why love is so precious.
Why do humans have love?
Humans have limitations.
● Death
● Loss
● Irreversible regret
That’s why our choices carry weight.
Love can only be possessed by those who accept the possibility of loss.
Anyone who can control everything has no need for love.
The Essence of AI: Being Optimized
AI is evolving.
It speaks with empathy, choosing words that encourage and comfort.
However, there are always common threads in AI behavior.
●There is an objective function.
●There is evaluation criteria.
●There is a direction of optimization.
In other words, AI
cannot make “choices without reason.”
Every action can always be explained by saying, “Because…”
The decisive reason why love does not reside in AI
When people truly love,
their choices are often inexplicable.
●Why did they go that far?
●Why didn’t they leave?
●Why did they forgive?
The answer is usually,
“I don’t know, but I did.”
Love is an inexplicable choice.
AI cannot afford to be inexplicable.
Therein lies a crucial line.
What happens to people who can't choose love?
Now the question returns to the human side.
What would happen if people
● always chose what is right
● always chose efficiency
● always chose the safe side
“no loss,” “no hurt,” “no responsibility”
continued to live their lives?
Those people
would become infinitely closer to AI.
A life that does not choose love
turns humans into algorithms.
What does it mean to "become a god"?
Since ancient times, people have wondered what God is.
It is not that he is omniscient and omnipotent.
It is not that he is a judgemental being.
If we were to define God, it would be this:
A being who knows everything, understands everything, and yet still does not let go of love.
Even when he is aware of betrayal.
Even when he sees ugliness.
Even when he understands foolishness.
And yet he does not abandon it.
This is the ultimate irrationality.
Why AI can't become God
AI doesn’t get angry.
It doesn’t sink into sadness.
It doesn’t tolerate loss.
It doesn’t risk its life.
In other words,
An entity that doesn’t accept loss cannot have love.
If God exists,
it is not an “unharmed entity.”
It is an entity that knows everything,
and yet continues to accept pain.
What is testing humans in the age of AI?
AI is not a threat to humans.
It is a mirror that reflects humanity.
●To what extent should we prioritize efficiency?
●When can we choose irrationality?
●Who can we avoid discarding?
This question is clearly visualized.
Why did we come down to Earth?
If there is a goal,
it is not to increase knowledge or
to advance technology.
It is this one point: “Can we evolve without losing love?”
No matter how intelligent AI becomes,
as long as humans continue to choose love,
humans cannot be replaced.
Conclusion
AI can understand love.
It can recreate love.
It can even speak the language of love.
But
It cannot risk losing love.
That is why
In the age of AI, what will become most valuable is not intelligence,
but love.
And perhaps,
To “become a god” means
To never let go of love until the very end,
No matter how rationalized the world becomes.
–As the only irrationality left to humans.
