What will be the outcome when AI 'outsmarts' humans?
Outsmart
Views on AI diverge. Some see a savior bestowing immortality on and whisking humanity off to the stars. Others descry a false prophet encompassing the ruin of humankind. The Yuan is cordially inviting our contributors to read their auguries and divine a time when AI ‘outsmarts’ us in this new series.

The Myth of Artificial Intelligence
Cognition
Our ancestors went in fear of disease and the unknown wind, rain and lightning because they did not know what state succeeded the death, which these forebears also feared. Therefore, our progenitors consigned their own lives and their understanding thereof to the existence of higher powers, hoping to ease their senseless fear by surrendering some of their cognition and power to establish a channel for dialog with unknown forces.
