It’s been said that AI proves the existence of the human soul, as it shows us what art looks like without one.

It's interesting - and was a topic I read about on this forum - that there's a compelling argument relating to our lack of having "free will." If by that standard we are products of our "programming (DNA)" and "environment," then how are we different from AI?

The notion of “free will” is severely compromised by the notion that the Big Bang (whatever form it took) not only created all of infinite space in the same instant, but also all of time.

If the Future already exists, free will is an illusion at best.
