There is nothing artificial about artificial intelligence. Why people are worried.

Everybody knows emotion gets us into trouble. It also gets us out of trouble. In a good way, and, also, in a bad way. Everything is 50–50. Emotion, and intellect, included.

This means we can use emotion to guide intelligence, and, also vice versa. Calling into question, the need for emotion, after all is said and done. Which may be why we love artificial intelligence. Why it intrigues us. Why, underneath it all, artificial intelligence scares us. All of this. Emotion.

So, it’s easy to say, it’s hard to say, whether humans can, ever, eliminate, emotion. More to the point, why would we want to do this?

Well, we, can know, for sure, 50–50 would want to do this.

Hydrogen when burned produces water. This explains emotion. And, also, why we would like to get rid of emotion. And, also, intelligence. Why intellect and emotion are entangled, naturally, and, necessarily, into 50–50.

Why, underneath it all, we would like to get rid of the 50–50. Even though, we realize, all of us, this is, 50–50, impossible. We’re all enamored of artificial intelligence, no matter the reason.

Because, intelligence, and emotion, are, forever, entwined. Meaning, there is nothing artificial about artificial intelligence. Emotion is, necessarily, involved.

Zero and one is circumference and diameter, entangling the numbers one and two. The basis for intelligence and emotion. Artificial and real.
