The Garden of Eden

The Garden of Eden is in response to today’s developments in artificial intelligence.

The origin of human intelligence is still an unsolved mystery.

Can wisdom and consciousness arise, eventually, from artificial intelligence?

Should we push the boundaries of technology towards the creation of sentient beings?

This situation reminds that of Adam and Eve. When they got access to the Garden of Eden they weren’t able to control their impulses, and eventually were rejected from Paradise.

We’re now playing the part of God. How will our Artificial Intelligence creations behave in our world?

And, if they get rogue, do we have a place where we can relegate them?

Here Eve is a robotic creature, and as such she’s not alive.

The forbidden fruit here symbolizes the singularity — the moment when technology will become alive, and gain the status of species, rather than object.

Eve is attracted by the fruit, but she’s governed by code, not conscious thoughts.

Why are we designing robots that behave and look like humans?

What materializes the transition between mechanical and alive?

How can we recognize this change of nature?

Those questions are addressed in “The Garden of Eden”, which exposes the moment this transition will possibly happen.
