The man knows that in the competition with the woman he would lose. To avoid it, he tries to produce by himself what he cannot: life therefore: intelligence, through a machine.
What does “artificial intelligence” mean?
If you ask a believer in artificial intelligence, he will probably answer as follows: “a machine capable of thinking”.
And if you ask someone who ignores what the expression “Artificial Intelligence” exactly means, you are very likely to get an answer of the kind: “I don’t know, I guess it is something unnatural, not human that thinks”. Such an answer comes simply from the apparent logic of the words: “intelligence” and “artificial” without understanding their real meaning.

what is Artificial Intelligence in Simple Terms?
Let’s take a closer look at the question. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a simulation of humain intelligence in machines. Yet, to place the machine at the same level as the human being is to try to replace it by the machine. Concretely, this means placing the object above the human.
On the scale of living beings, Humans are placed at the top precisely because they are the only ones capable of thinking logically: they have what others do not have, that is to say intelligence.
What is the Purpose of AI?
The purpose of AI is to function like humans, for example, to make decisions like humans. The ultimate goal, which is not openly stated, but is real, is to completely replace human beings with machines.
Why such a craze for wanting to use something artificial when there is an abundance of its natural source? There must be a reason for this. And the reason is that natural intelligence, quite simply intelligence, can only be “produced” by women: they give birth to naturally intelligent humans. Men can’t do the job. If they are intelligent, it is because the woman gave birth to them as naturally intelligent beings
The Challenge
It’s intriguing for men. How could men break the deadlock?
What if they used their brains to produce something that values nature, in order to compete with what a woman produces rather than trying to destroy it?
21st century feminism aims, instead of destroying the potential of men, to unite their efforts and use their strength to support and implement women’s values.
Sharing values involves letting the other enter areas where one sex is traditionally king. We see that if women are a little ashamed to make men walk in fields generally assigned to women, men are fiercely opposed to women occupying a high position in the technical field. They tell themselves that if the woman even takes possession of this area, there will be nothing left for them where they can feel the rulers of the world.
Why is Silicon Valley not Women-Friendly?
We speak of techno-chauvinism in reference to the idea that what is technical is superior and belongs to men. In fact, there aren’t that many women in technoscience.
The Guardian reports : “It’s this idea that Silicon Valley is a modern utopia where anyone can change the world or make their own rules, if they are men. But if you are a woman it is incomparably harder. And that shows in the numbers. Women-led companies get just 2% of venture capital funding”1
If Silicon Valley doesn’t appear to be women-friendly, there’s a good reason for that. Men are afraid of competition, which is not surprising on their side, what is a little surprising is that women are not aware of the real reason for such jealousy. Women can make “originals” while men desperately try to make copies. Men cannot create human beings, men can only produce machines. The fact that women are not aware of their potential is quite amazing: they create human beings and can also create machines.
If you had an authentic Raphael would you be interested in acquiring an artefact from it? And, if you just had an artefact, would you welcome the presence of a real art masterpiece nearby? What about a close relationship with those who can very easily produce other masterpieces? Of course, you should try to keep them as far away as possible. That’s what factually happens in the tech world, where women are hardly represented.
21st Century Feminism: Self-Aware women: WONOMAN
Women should look at the causes of phenomena, beyond appearances, rather than just worrying about the effects. They should dismantle, unmask the tricks men use to hide their deepest intentions.
A fallacious argument they often use to justify their excessive love for machines, and their preference for machines over humans, is: machines are objective, while human beings are not. If the last statement: human beings are not objective, is correct, the first: machines are objective, is completely false.
Why? Because the machines themselves are built by men, so they carry their character. In other words, technical objects are not born, they are not babies of other technical objects.
The car we buy is not the baby car of a mother car – even if we speak, and not by chance, of a generation of cars. They are all, from A to Z, built by humans. Of course, with the help of other machines – these, in turn, made by man.
Artificial Intelligence Danger
The closest danger is that we take the term artificial-intelligence literally.
Let’s consider a trivial example: the car. It takes us from one place to another and it is made on purpose, by human beings, to transport us. In addition to that, the car needs a driver.
Here, the following objection is often raised: self-driving cars do exist.
The answer to this objection is: not only are self-driving cars a human product, on top of that, they are totally unsafe.
We have a fairly reliable personal testimony, as well as the scientific explanation for it. Both are given by Meredith Broussard. She is a professor at New York University as a specialist in artificial intelligence. Well, she almost got run over by one of those cars. She explains the process: why this is happening.
While humans always recognize a stop sign, it doesn’t matter if the stop sign is 10 centimeters to the left of where it should be, or if it’s slightly different in color, or … – which, of course, happens very often – machines only stop if the technical parameters of the outside world are in accordance with those for which they were programmed. Very limited indeed, compared to those that exist in the real world. In other words, if for example you put a sticker on the sign, the car won’t recognize it any more. Yet, occasional changes like this happen in real life all the time. This means that the autonomous car is very likely to cause dangerous accidents.
The conclusion is not surprising, but deserves to be mentioned, because, too often taken for granted, it leads to its underestimation.
The conclusion is that what the woman “produces”: human beings, is of better quality than male products: machines.
Artificial Intelligence Concerns
If some people are ready to admit that, soon after, they add that it is only a matter of time before reaching perfection: what has not been achieved so far can become reality tomorrow – a dream come true.
While a positive outlook is a strong incentive for progress, it shouldn’t make us a foolish dreamer. This would hamper real progress: people who constantly build castles in the air don’t really make the world a better place, rather they contribute to its destruction: they are focusing all of their energy on something that doesn’t exist. They do not carry out any real transformation.
Of course, many sci-fi dreams have come true, for example flying. No one before the 20th century would ever have thought he could fly in real terms. It is now a daily experience open to all.
Yes, however, we must not forget that we are not the ones who fly, it is the airplane – sorry for those who take the language at face value. When we say “we are flying from New York to San Francisco” we don’t really mean it, and the listener doesn’t think we have developed wings and flew in the sky.
Risks of Artificial Intelligence
We are simply using figurative language, each of us knowing fairly well that figurative expressions should not be taken literally.
Thinking that the person we are talking to could really understand that we had become a bird when we say “we fly” makes us laugh. Why then are we rather taken very seriously, and even literally when we use the expression: “Artificial Intelligence“?
The expression “Artificial Intelligence” taken literally induces the idea, as Meredith Broussard has pointed out, that the computer has a small brain inside. The same is true, she says, with the phrase “machine learning” which conveys the idea that machines learn, just like humans.
Mirror Games: Mirages
Faced with skepticism about artificial intelligence, its supporters believe there is decisive evidence of computers’ intelligence: they beat chess players, for example.
Someone who is not a specialist might get puzzled, not Prof. Meredith Broussard, who quite precisely explains how it all works.
People who work in the field of artificial intelligence, and who are very enthusiastic about games, considering that chess players are smart, they thought that if a computer could play chess or go, that computer would necessarily be smart.
Is this really the case? If you look behind the mirror you can see how the strings are pulled by human intelligence. What gadget are these smart technicians using? Over the decades, they’ve collected the best strategies that real Go players around the world use when playing on the internet. They take all that data and put it into the computer. There’s so much data now that it’s possible to bite the best Go player, says prof. Meredith Broussard.
Unmasking the Technical Sleight of Hand. AI concerns
It was not the computer that created its own strategy – what people tend to think of when hearing the expression: “artificial intelligence” – the computer is simply using strategies that were created by the best human GO players in the world. Even though AI supporters like to imagine the computer acting autonomously: making decisions on its own, this is certainly not the case.
A question arises: does this all go without risk? Not really.
At first glance, everything seems funny, even pleasant: a jock, when men speak of “first”, “second”, “third … generation” of computers: using a language which alludes to machines giving birth to baby machines. Is the man still aware that he is only playing a game or is he pretending his dream has come true? To put it bluntly, does he believe that HIS MACHINES are living beings and that by perfecting the technique, he can even replace the seconds with the first, and thus put women out of work? And once again, does the patriarchal man stop there in his project to imitate life?
Reasons to be Worried.
The idea of controlling life actually represents the highest patriarchal goal, strictly related to the prime one: controlling women.
Yet, how would you prove your supreme power if not by forcing your way of “creating”, which is totally artificial, on the actual, on the natural creation?
Is your artificial creation better, and therefore preferable to natural creation? Knowing basically that the answer is: “No”, you must avoid at all costs the comparison between the two: the original and its copy. How? First of all by discrediting the original, by making it ridiculous, not perfect, in short: not up to the task. In the meantime, singing the praises of the artificial by presenting it as modern. When that is not enough, you must try to destroy as far as possible the original: the natural creation. This is what is happening.
War against Nature: War against Woman
We are once again facing war https://wonoman.com/are-wars-inevitable/#more-620 in a new disguise. It also takes a new name: “electronic warfare“, while its substance remains unchanged: the war against women. If the woman is busy bringing new lives into the world, giving life back to the earth, the patriarchal man is busy destroying it, regardless of the fact that to build a new life, it takes a lifetime, to destroy it, it only takes few moments.
We know how electronics, that could bring well-being to all human beings, is often used for destructive purposes. How not to think of Hobbes?
In contemporary times, electronics being accessible to all, the risk mentioned by Hobbes centuries ago, of everybody’s war against everybody seems to be on.
It is time for the woman’s spirit to take the lead in public affairs: patriarchy is so clumsy! It is time to submit “Artificial Unintelligence”,2 as Meredith Broussard calls it, to real intelligence, the human intelligence: the only one which exists and is “produced” by the woman.
