Artificial Intelligence

In the next installment of the AI interview series, I asked about the difference between samatha and vipassana meditation. This is a topic that has been addressed in Theravada Buddhism for at least the last 100 years, since the well-known teacher Mahasi Sayadaw came up with the concept of so-called dry insight, i.e. the possibility of realizing insight without the need to achieve deeper states of calm (jhan). Read the answers to the questions we asked artificial intelligence about this issue.

We presented the increasingly emerging artificial intelligence to solve the fundamental Buddhist question as well as the problems that are currently being solved. Surprisingly, the answers are not only entertaining, but also instructive in many ways. Sometimes to such an extent that one wonders whether in the future artificial intelligence could participate in the teaching of Buddhism.
