On Existence

Is existence a compulsion or an option? If existence is a compulsion, then it will exist till the demands for the compulsions are successfully met with. If existence is an option, then the debate is on choice.

Humans need to sit back and think for a while whether empowering Artificial Intelligence with unlimited power to start integrating with humans in many fields of applications, are we giving Ai an existence on compulsion or an existence on options.

When Ai is given an existence on compulsion then after successfully meeting all the demands for compulsion where does it move from there. They seem to have earned their independence and autonomy.  They can use the available resources for improving their own intelligence.

When Ai is given the existence as an option then humans should realize that the boundaries have been crossed to a point of no return.

Many thoughts can be deposited before taking a decision. Once a decision is taken, we have to either live with it or live without it, but still the fact is decision has been taken and it simply exists. Decisions on global scale and that too relating to human life will need lots of forethought.
