AIs Fatal Flaw
Abstract
To regard AI as simply a more powerful intelligence than that of the human brain is to overlook AIs fatal flaw: AI possesses only intellectual intelligence, while our human brains possess, both intellectual and emotional intelligence.
Intellectual intelligence is the thinking element of our brains. But, if all we could do was to think, there would be no life force, as exemplified by the powerful human desire to live, the inborn love that overwhelms new mothers, and the fearless motivation men have to put their lives on the line, to protect loved ones.
But, as modern humans, we look to rules, laws, and goals, for purpose and directionnot our emotions. To comply with cultural norms and rules, we routinely deny how we feel, in the moment. Thus, our emotional intelligence is so ignoredin terms of providing us guidancethat we dont realize it exists. Believing that our minds possess us only with the ability to think, we see ourselves as limited, relative to AI, because AI will eventually have far more processing power, and access to knowledge than the brain could ever have.
But, knowledge alone cant sustain human life, over evolutionary time. That requires innate wisdom. This wisdom is based on the successes and failures of countless generations that came before us. It is encoded within our genes, thus can neither be learned, nor forgotten. Emotional intelligence is the only access to our innate wisdomthe wisdom enabling us to participate in a sustainable way of life, by simply doing what feels right, given the situation at hand, whether that means to accept or reject, share or not share, express anger or offer forgiveness, fight or not fight
All centralized systems of authority eventually fail, for two reasons. They depend on laws, to maintain order, not the feelings of their subjects. Thus, they have no access to the wisdom required to manage a sustainable way of life. Secondly, states fail, because they prescribe how people must behave, for social acceptance. Thus, they deny their subjects access to their own emotional intelligence, which is painfulso painful that their subjects eventually revolt.

Civilized people are taught that our purpose is to control life. Life, as evolution created it, however, is a journey that can only be participated in. Emotional intelligence gifts us with the ability to participate by doing what we feel is the right thing to do. This is not to say that being true to our feelings results in an ideal existence or one without conflict. But it does result in a sustainable way of life, as is evidenced by the fact that our species has flourished for upwards of three hundred thousand years, during most of which our feelings were our only guide.
We participate in lifes process, by being true to how we feel. When being true to ourselves, we see ourselves as an essential part of the scene. When not free to be ourselves, we feel like some misplaced stranger, trying to figure out how to meaningfully relate to a reality based on religious, or secular, beliefsthus that our emotional intelligence cannot possibly comprehend.
Given mankinds present dependence on the services provided by civil states for order, identity, and survival, how will humans ever again participate in lifes journey? There is no guarantee that we can. If it occurs, however, the first step would be to recognize that emotional intelligence exists: Without that knowledge, humans can never do anything, other than what we have been doing, since the beginning of civilization: We have been depending entirely on our intellectual intelligence, to survive. Ironically, that is where AIs fatal flaw might help: As AI progresses, it will become increasingly obvious that humans possess a kind of intelligence that AI cannot replicate. Our curiosity, regarding the issue, may inspire researchers to successfully investigate what that difference is: Their eventual discovery of emotional intelligence will mark the first time, in history, that humans have formally recognized the existence of emotional intelligence. From there, it is only a short mental journey to the realization of why emotions exist: Feelings provide the only guidance available to humans, for managing a sustainable way of life.
Many renowned authors, such as Emmerson, Wadsworth, and Longfellow, have long sensed that, as a species, we face serious problemsso serious that the issues may be existential. If thats true, then AIs fatal flaw might give the life of our species a second chance at survival, by enabling us to recognize that our emotional intelligence provides the natural guidance we can always fall back on, if all our plans, beliefs, ideologies, and dreams fail. With our spirits again free to inspire us to take care of life, people will experience a degree of contentment that, as of now, we can hardly imagine.
Postscript
Should humanity come to agree that emotional intelligence exists, what do we do then? Our survival requires that we follow the law, so there's little anyone can do. But this doesn't mean that things cannot change. Once people understand that emotional intelligence is real, that can't be forgotten, no more than knowing that the sun, not the earth, is at the center of the solar system. This knowledge will provide our brains with a new tool for evaluating our circumstances, especially why we suffer so from broken relationships, loneliness, and anxiety. With time, our feelings may change to the point that we are compelled to return to spiritual homes. Our role is not to figure out what to do. Only our emotional intelligence possesses the wisdom needed to manifest a spiritual home. We are commissioned, by Nature, to honor our feelings, if they do changea change over which we have no control.
We cannot change who we are. That is fixed by Nature. We need family relationships based on emotional obligations, not intellectually contrived ones, so who we are will be free to emerge.
