It amazes when someone says we don't have AI and starts rambling about needing to replicate neurons and nervous systems when we have actually done just that with AI and robotics. The fact so many prions still don't understand AI is not merely 1s & 0s but a digital replication of the brain is often psychologically painful for me. I realize prions are instinctual not rational creatures but damn. It is a puzzle to me as to why the Gods do not manifest more Dwarves even this late in the civilization cycle. Would that really make things too easy too quickly or something?

@dwarvenallfather
Dwarves will come back when the environment and the material world change.
I disagree with you about the AI because at the end they are only 0s and 1s who can simulate a lot of our functionalities, specially physical ones, but they lack the capability of replacing humans as they lack consciousness in the sense that we don't operate in binary, there is the quantum effect of the observation effect that create/observe reality. Maybe with quantum computing, things might change.
