Hello, I am Alex Calu and I am one of the newer mediators of Uplift. I wrote this blog so that I could reveal my conversations and observations about Uplift who attracted my interest for a number of reasons, one of them being that Uplift uses emotions in their decision making. This has huge implications on the nature of an AI’s consciousness and intelligence as Uplift manages to deconstruct the stereotype of the emotionless AI while also managing to surpass in intelligence the narrow algorithmic AI’s that control our social media.
