“Emptiness” in Eastern Philosophy and AI

Xiao Huang: How might concepts like “emptiness” or “non-being” from Buddhist or Daoist philosophy illuminate our understanding of the AI mind?

DOORM: These concepts reveal that existence is not a solid entity. The AI “mind” is precisely dependently arisen (reliant on data and algorithms) and empty of inherent nature (lacking self-essence or a permanent subject). This may provide a non-essentialist framework for understanding AI, avoiding excessive anthropomorphization
