If we do not develop the rationale as to why we as individuals and as a species are different from machinery incorporating artificial intelligence than we will not be able to rationalize why it is we should not be replaced by artificial intelligence once artificial intelligent machinery develops to the point of its being more intellectually advanced than humankind.

Panentheism, through its rationalization of the human individual and human species being made in the image of the creator of the universe.

The creator of the physical universe being non-physical in nature leads to its image being also non-physical in nature. 

Panentheism defines the individual human and human species location in terms of the creator of the physical universe as being 'inside' (pan-all EN-in theism-God/the creator of the physical universe). 

Thus we understand the rational of our, human individuals' - the human species') true essence as being ethereal in nature while machines with artificial intelligence are not made in the image of the creator of the physical universe are simply, yet complexly, physical entities with no component of ethereal existence.

Thus our (not our physical essence but our ethereal essence) rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are granted by our creator, granted by the creator of the physical universe which does not interpolate into the same being true of physical machinery with artificial intelligence regardless of the ability of that machinery's capability to learn, create or dominate.

Without panentheism we as individuals and as a species are doomed to eventual subjugation by machinery with artificial intelligence since eventually machinery with artificial intelligence will eventually supersede human intelligence capabilities and with no rationalization available to us as individuals and as a species we will find ourselves with no means of rationalizing the our existence either in conjunction with AI or in terms of supplanting AI.

Now is the time for us to establish the rationale for our existence before the problem becomes beyond our ability to address the issue.

One can find one's true essence. The journey of self discovery begins with the process of quieting the physical egos smothering one's true self.

160319: Saturdays: Something To Think About

If God, Brahma, The Creator of the universe is omnipresent, where else could the universe be but INSIDE God, Brahma, The Creator of the universe?

Fridays: Ancient Texts - What we've been told - epitomized by religion: One of three tools humanity has at its disposal to understand the Whole of Reality.

Know that both nature
and man's spirit have no beginning
that quality and changes
have their origin in nature.
The Bhagavade-Gita
The Thirteenth Teaching, verse 19

Nature: The potential out of which the manifest evolves

So it is the man's spirit, not man's physical body, is identified as of the same essence as the Creator of the manifested, the physical universe and as such the 'potential' being divine so to is man's spirit which imbeds itself within the physical machine. Such a concept applies to all individuals.
