From the End: Advantages of Mortality
摘要
Aging and death are biological necessities. Although humans struggle with their own end, the knowledge of their own mortality spurs them to action and planning. Even in their final phase of life, they still want to determine for themselves what may happen to them. The basis of self-determination is free will. With it, it is possible to align oneself with values that one considers important for oneself. Humans have convictions. AI, on the other hand, is not physical and finite, it does not die. Therefore, it does not make individual plans, does not pursue independent goals, and does not possess self-responsible self-activity. Only an organism can be creative. Without finiteness, everything is the same and boring.
