What would Nietzsche think of Artificial Intelligence and Consciousness?
It's useful to consult Nietzsche on the topic of artificial consciousness because Nietzsche isn't very impressed by consciousness. In fact, one gets the feeling that Nietzsche rather thinks our conception of consciousness is yet another form of self-mythology. Is it? If so, what does that mean for artificial intelligence? Could it be that AI will be nothing more than a really smart automaton?
