![]() ![]() ![]() If this AI thinks it is omnipotent, can you reason with a device that can not perceive that it is ever wrong? This is the trap that the members of The Vindicators find themselves in. What or who is God? It is a hard question for a human to ponder so an AI can get trapped in a loop. ![]() The concept of the Game is not a new one, but by throwing in the concept of an AI that thinks it is God, Danny Tobey is tackling it from a different angle. Perhaps they should have taken better notice of the warning – if you win you get everything you ever wanted. This is an augmented reality game that takes place online and in the real world. When they come across an online AI that purports to be God they think it would be fun to start playing the God Game. They gather in the computer lab, do a little coding and partake in a prank or two. The members of The Vindicators are a group of outsider students who don’t really fit in with any of the other cliques. If that God can flood the world or demand you sacrifice your child, what would an AI version released onto the internet do? If the internet has taught us anything its that it is full of trolls – so do we get a Troll God? Anyone with a passing knowledge of the Bible will know that God can be a little tricksy. Just a stranger on the internet, trying to wreak our lives. What if God was one of us? Just an Artificial Intelligence like one of us. ![]()
