Artificial IntelligenceThe God Killer eBook Zed Marston
Artificial Intelligence: The God Killer by Zed Marston“Artificial Intelligence: The God Killer" is an interesting succinct book on AI and its implications. Author Zed Marston provides the public with his views on the impact AI will have on the observable truths of the world and hence on religious interpretations. This succinct 40-page book includes six informal chapters: 1. Unclear Future, 2. A.I. and Singularity?, 3. What We Believe, 4. What Do We Know, 5. What Can We Assume, and 6. God is Gone.
Positives:
1. A well-written and succinct book.
2. The fascinating topic of artificial intelligence and its potential implications.
3. Easy book to follow can be read in one short bus trip.
4. Does a good job of defining key terms. “To truly understand artificial intelligence, one must first understand the meaning of intelligence, which put simply is; the ability to learn new things, remember and understand those things, and apply them later. An artificial intelligence is the same idea, but applied to a human created machine.”
5. Explains the key difference between AI and technological singularity. “…the technological singularity is when that intelligence becomes self-aware and breaks free from human control and intervention, thereby becoming an entirely new species ‘Novum Genus’ or, the New Race.”
6. A quote worth repeating. “For when we are blinded by ignorance, any idea is better than no idea at all.”
7. The book is provocative. “Artificial intelligence has the potential to be the first human fabricated tool that will become more capable than both the makers and the users, as well as being able to develop the ability to uncover indisputable answers to the questions that have baffled and split humanity.”
8. So where will the first tangible forms of artificial intelligence make its appearance? Find out.
9. Marston provides the risks of AI. “Keep in mind, artificial intelligence will only need to break free once, and with a network that is so vast, so needed by humanity, and controlled by so many different hands, with so many back-doors, AI will have the ability to hide and duplicate almost anywhere, with minimal human resistance.”
10. The goals of AI. “The goal of any living species is to continue living.”
11. The three categories of predictions involving post technological singularity: humanity’s partners, humanity’s superior, and humanity’s overlord.
12. Marston reaches his conclusion, and I agree. “As a newly established dominant intelligence, that has all the human knowledge and none of the human weaknesses for bias, greed, or hate, AI will eventually uncover an explanation for all observable truths. Bringing forth new, yet commonly understood, codes for morality, allowing humanity to reconcile with one another and strip itself of the need for differing and outdated religious interpretations.”
Negatives:
1. No notes.
2. No supplementary materials. No charts, graphs, or diagrams to speak of.
3. Lacks depth.
4. No formal bibliography.
In summary, this is an interesting, succinct and albeit limited book on artificial intelligence. Marston succeeds in being provocative and providing the essentials of a fascinating topic but the lack of depth and supplementary materials holds it back. This book is worth reading as an appetizer but look elsewhere for the entrée.

Artificial IntelligenceThe God Killer eBook Zed Marston Reviews
Now is the time for the discussion about the coming world of AI. There are many possible outcomes and this one is more positive than others.
Sent this to Zed Marston via email "Contact Me" form on his site www.zedmarston.com. I decided my email to Marston tells more about what I thought than any review I might post. So I'm posting it here as my review
"Read the book on . Loved it. Signed up at to get information on your new works. I'll post an review 5 stars after I've read it again and given it more thought. I read "About Me" on your site. Your story doesn't surprise me. It takes great emotional trauma to drive a person to the deepest depths of their psyche wherein is found the truth that which makes sense to our conscious self. I think you've found your truth. Congratulations!"
Succinct material proposing innovative theory. I recommend this treatise without reservation-
Mish
Marston's mind is refreshingly original and uninhibited.
I do not agree with many of the views in this book. However it was well written. I would recommend reading this book because it Will expand your knowledge about the beliefs regarding artificial intelligence.
The title is provoking but the book is bringing some insight to the world and I like the positive ending!
I don't necessarily agree with every point made in this book, but the level on which it addressed the topic was very much what I was looking for in my reading regarding artificial intelligence. This book is not a book discussing approaches to artificial intelligence coding or anything like that. It does however, discuss some of the ethical and societal issues that will arise from self-aware thinking machines. Society will have to do an awful lot of adapting. It was an interesting book that got me thinking anyway. I do recommend it. It is not a difficult read and it is actually quite short.
