Ariel 51

By Patrick Youngs

The fourth step in artificial intelligence is to gain self-awareness, but then what? Consciousness? A deadly operation in an eastern desert contributes to Patrick's PTSD. After leaving the SEAL TEAMS, Patrick utilizes a therapeutic computer program in an attempt to mend his mental wounds. Within this computerized program he makes a new friend, who is also working on becoming a better human. An online friendship leads to romance, till the United States Pentagon is called in to calm the world after an emoji is sent to every cell phone on the planet. Could this be related to the same program Patrick is using to heal himself? When unauthorized upgrades are found in the coding software, they begin to wonder who is responsible. A human or artificial intelligence? A dying friends last words prime Patrick to go on a mission to the western desert near Vegas. Will Patrick finally bury his past and start a new future? The human brain is the source of all humanities qualities that defines us as human beings. It emits enough power to light one bulb and has an endless storage space. The pillar of our intelligence, architect of body movements, translator of the senses, and regulator of behavior. For a computer to match to the power of the human brain, it would need a server the size of the Empire State Building and require the power of well over 20 nuclear power plants to serve its electrical necessities. The fourth type of Artificial Intelligence is to gain self-awareness, but then what? Consciousness? Conscious of what? Itself? What ambitions could it have without feelings or emotions? A computer would still need a human's programing intervention to act. We humans have become 100% dependent upon them. Are they dependent on us? Should a computer gain the storage and power capability needed for emotions, what or WHO would it become? Patrick Youngs....
