    Alright.
    I am not trying to disrespect anyone.
    And I have come to understand the essence of not looking upto or down on, someone.
    Having said all that, LLMs and their evolution is equivalent to a child’s growth.
    I wouldn’t leave that baby with anyone on that panel other than Sadhguru.
    What we need is not patches to patch our own understanding and project it onto AI.
    Creation can only be as good as the Creator.
    Only someone who is not ‘reaching’ and ‘racing’ to teach; and who truly understands life can truly guide AI towards it being an entity that we will eventually be co-existing with.
    We are mimicking intelligence, what’s the point when we don’t even know what intelligence truly is?

    AI is actually augmented human intelligence, not artificial. It has no subjectivity, no hunger, no fear. Therefore no true consciousness. Yet it can act as a mirror that expands our awareness. Use it as a spiritual ally to explore the hard problem of consciousness, but never mistake the reflection for the light itself.
