Sunday Nights Radio: AI Does Not Equal Eleven

What can This Is Spinal Tap tell us about the Tech Bros expectation that AI becomes super intelligent by just adding processing, is that the same as cranking it to 11? And what does it mean when the techies say "it's inevitable that AI will be better at creative elements like music"? Tonight on Sunday Nights Radio we're going to look at the depth that of creativity and knowledge that music can impart that demonstrates how AI lacks the dimensions of the creative activities the Tech Bros want to supplant. Do we hate our hobbies so much, is music being hard something that we should eliminate for the sake of democratizing creativity? A Natural Aristocracy, as Jefferson coined it, may not be a bad thing if we learn to strive and improve. But the chant that AI is inevitable will stifle all of the great ancillary skills we acquire by pursuing hard tasks.
