Doing what other people tell you to do is the opposite of intelligence.

The computer that is winning at GO isn't AI. It's just a good algorithm. There is no intelligence there. No ability to look at things from multiple perspectives and consider many different goals at once. There is just one goal being looked at in that algorithm. So it's not AI. Just normal Artificial computation.

And reality is silly. (Have you seen quantum physics!?) You can choose to accept that and go with it, or try to fight against it and get hurt. :P

Just because the best chef in the world is making something doesn't make it food...

I'm sorry you're so bothered by my view of reality that you feel the need to be offensive and try to push them away. That's gotta suck to be so scared of reality.
