Yeah I looked into your comments on other post’s you’ve  commented  on you disregard everyone’s ideas so I’m not gonna take anything you say seriously.. you continue to act like your intelligence is far beyond anyone else… and obviously you just google things to have argumentative information. Sorry but not sorry.. it’s just an idea. Obviously you have no room for those.

You need to explain what this is. At the moment it is just a list, without any explanation. It has no content.

Is it the layout of a proposed book? Or what?

Just drawing parallels between religious ethics and AI creation and development.  “AI Bible”  like an ethical guide.  Sorry if that doesn’t make sense.

Just putting things next to each other is not drawing parallels or informative. You need to establish a) what you think the link is and b) provide context and interpretation. Rather than providing a long list of such things, how about just taking one aspect out and elaborate on what you mean and try to foster a discussion on it. For example, how is it different from other calls for ethical AI implementation? Is there anything that we can discuss. This here is a discussion forum and not a "here is my random thought" forum.

 Micah 6:8: 

“He has shown you what is good. And what does the Lord want? To act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with God.”This means treating others fairly, being accountable, and making decisions with integrity and compassion.

How This Applies to AI Ethics…Fairness in AI: Biblical Context: In ancient times, justice was about making fair laws. Modern Parallel: In AI, fairness means making sure that AI systems don’t unfairly discriminate against people based on things like race, gender, or income. For example, an AI used for hiring should not unfairly reject candidates.

 

Example: A LendingTree analysis of 2022 Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) data finds that the share of Black homebuyers denied mortgages is notably higher than the share among the overall population.Jul 24, 2023…. is this closer to what you’re suggesting?

I’m just trying to better my understanding on how to present my idea I apologize if I’m going about it wrong.

For starters this is a discussion site and not your blog. Soapboxing is against the rules.

I’m sorry you feel that way, but my respect is earned. You’ve failed thus far to do so.
