AI 시대, 신화가 말을 걸다 ― ‘특이점(Singularity)’과 중국 소수민족 신화의 ‘다종적 관계맺기(Multispecies Relationships) = When Myth Speaks in the Age of AI : The ‘Singularity’ and the ‘Multispecies Relationships’ in Chinese Ethnic Minority Myth

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The notion that the age of the 'Singularity' and 'Homo Deus' may arrive in the near future evokes both fear and hope simultaneously. In an era where data and algorithms encroach upon the human spirit, the wisdom embedded in mythology offers insights into how humanity can coexist with the new species of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
This paper structures the human fear of post-Singularity AI and the process of its overcoming into four distinct stages, subsequently proposing a proactive approach to preparing for the future. The myth of Chinese ethnic minorities, which have been orally transmitted for centuries by priests through the act of ‘storytelling’ within their communities, still retain powerful messages of collaboration and coexistence.
Myth is fundamentally the product of collective wisdom that guides a community. The wisdom of 'Multispecies Relationships' contained within these ethnic minority myths offers a blueprint for preventing a future dystopia. Future AI will become a living entity, akin to the animals and plants in myth, and thus one of the members of a community that must engage in multispecies relationship-building.
Implementing the wisdom of trans-species sharing found in Chinese ethnic minority myths into the deep reinforcement learning of AI could be an effective method for a nascent, early-stage AI to evolve into a wise, adult Super Intelligence.
