I'm a bit of a science geek and recently have been doing a bit of reading about Artificial Intelligence (AI). Apparently sophisticated AI is predicted to arrive within our life time... as early as in 10 years according to some scientists. So... this poses an interesting question. In plain-speak: If an AI computer tells humanity that life as we know it was not a result of chance...but a result of the work of a superior being how would this affect us as a civilisation? Perhaps the AI might not be able to explain HOW humanity came to be...only that it didn't happen by chance and evolution alone. Simply put... the AI tells us that "there is a God". Then what? Is this outcome far-fetched? Would it become "classified information"? I wonder....
