The Limits of Design Automation

Quoting Luciano Floridi:

In AI, the outcome matters, not whether the agent or its behaviour is intelligent. Thus, AI is not about reproducing any kind of biological intelligence. It is about doing without it.

Reminds me of the quote oft attributed to Fyodor Dostoevsky:

At first, art imitates life. Then life will imitate art.Then life will find its very existence from the arts.

Hopefully we won’t soon be saying:

At first, AI imitates biological life. Then biological life will imitate AI. Then biological life will find its very existence from AI.
