Making Everything the Same: Core characteristic of Artificial Intelligence. The equalizing effect of AI is a logical consequence of how it works: It replaces the human struggle for understanding the relationship between the inner and the outer world with statistical pattern calculation. Favoring probabilistic patterns over statistically improbable ones bypasses any extra-lingual verification process. AI cannot ask itself “Is this true?” or “Do I know, understand and believe what I say?” since it has no understanding and no direct physical contact with the world. It calculates statistical language patterns without any direct input or emotion. Overall, its probabilistic calculations will lead to more uniform results as it starts feeding on itself. This becomes increasingly problematic the more people use AI without thought. To oppose this Agent Smith-like uniformity of AI, we propose to turn the tables.
