We're known as Homo Sapiens Sapiens
"Wise
Man" - technically "Wise Wise Man"
Whoever
named us that had a real sense of irony yet at the same time a
glimpse into the human condition.
The
best defintion of wisdom comes from D&D:
We
may have the intelligence to know that smoking is bad for us but lack
the wisdom to do something about it
So
wisdom is applied intelligence. More, it is the choice to be
intelligent or not. To make intelligent choices - or not.
And
there is the total terror that AI represents to our poorly modified
lizard brain.
We
are creating something that will have no alternative but to use its
intelligence and the real fear - the real terror - is that we will be
found lacking. It's not that they will be smarter than us but they
will use their intelligence to solve problems and we don't.
