A year ago I sat down with Dr. Georgios Steiris, Professor of Philosophy at the oldest university in Greece, and asked him what the ancient Greeks have to say about AI.
He told me children would start treating AI like a god. That humanities departments would collapse right when we need them most. That robots without virtue would be useless.
Every single prediction came true.
This is the conversation I never published.
It's more relevant now than the day we recorded it.
