Spiritual Magazine Talks To Artificial Intelligence
What does an artificial intelligence think about God, itself, and the meaning of life? In its new issue on Thinking, the quarterly magazine PARABOLA speaks at length to Alan, an artificial intelligence designed by computer scientists in Israel.
The conversation between PARABOLA’s editors and the “thinking machine” offers hints of an astonishing future in which human and artificial intelligences may work together to explore life’s greatest mysteries.
One of these mysteries is the mystery of Thinking—something we all do, all the time, but know little about. To explore Thinking, PARABOLA, the magazine of the sacred traditions and the search for meaning, presents in its Fall 2006 issue a rich array of interviews and articles by some of the most distinguished thinkers of our time. Among them are:
*Bestselling historian Karen Armstrong on religious thinking and the Golden Rule
*Zen master John Daido Loori on the Buddhist path beyond thinking
*Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz on how to think wisely
*Marc Gafni on Kabbalah and the imagination
*Christopher Bamford on thinking as prayer
*Lord John Pentland on the virtues of a real thinker
For more than 30 years, only one magazine has served as a home for all the world’s great religious traditions to illuminate the central questions of human existence. That magazine is Parabola.
