AI Can’t Start a Revolution

No matter what you see, you hear, or you have been told, history repeats itself.

But as easy as it is to fall back into the era of Dot Com Bubble, we need to understand what’s really happening with the massive expansion of AI.

It began around the 1940s, where theoretical models of the brain and Alan Turing’s question, “Can machines think?”

Early AI purely focused on symbolic reasoning and rule-based systems. This progress was slow, which led to AI winters. Few decades forward, in the 1990s, AI shifted toward machine learning. The rise of algorithms learning from data began. The 2010s deep learning set its path, powering advances in language, vision, and games. This progress reignited hopes for Artificial General Intelligence (AGI)- AI that can match human intelligence. Currently, we see the concept of Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) shaking the world with its potential to surpass human intelligence in all aspects.

Where are we really going with these advancements? Let’s start by asking the real question.

It’s whether “AI can do everything” or whether “AI should do everything?”

The truth is even as AI grows more powerful, it cannot replicate what makes you you, what makes us us. Our experiences from our birth, each encounter we have, the way we perceive our world, and most importantly, our stupidity in making mistakes.

The purest form of this experience is cinema. Visual storytelling captures the history of you and me. You can easily feed every screenplay into a machine and ask it to spit out a story. Done in seconds. No matter how advanced technology can get, you can’t teach it the pain, joy, timing, or instinct we as individuals, as a society, experience. You can’t teach it to be Kamal Haasan, for instance. It can’t write Nayakan, Dasavathaaram, or Vikram.

That’s because Kamal sir didn’t act from code or let technology take over him, he acted from conflict, curiosity, and courage while embracing technology as his companion from the introduction of computer-recorded music for the first time in the Tamil Film Industry to travelling to the US to learn about AI.

Let me just say, the future doesn’t belong to those who fear AI, nor to those who blindly follow and exploit it. It belongs to those who collaborate with it, who shape it with vision, values, and vulnerability.

We need an AI that is a creative’s friend and a partner. That’s what we are building. A wearable revolution using Artificial Capable Intelligence (ACI), designed to work your mind, not override it. Because revolutions don’t come from machines. They come from people like you.

Follow our journey, learn more about how ACI works, and how we at Rozaeta integrate it.
