Isn't AI basically a bunch of algorithms?
Western view says the brain is about electricity and chemistry and genetics and intelligence is related to that.
Eastern view is that intelligence is a faculty of mind, and mind emanates from a consciousness field that is pure and infinite awareness. The brain is what the soul inhabits but intelligence continues to function when the soul is out of the body (as in dreaming, deep sleep or NDE or death). One day when brain implants become possible, perhaps the medical establishment will be forced to realize it isn't the person that is being transplanted merely the physical instrument.
I think AI has a long way to go before it could ever be interesting or useful enough for a soul to inhabit - irregardless, it's the soul that would give it it's intelligence not the algorithms.
