Abstract

How to avoid that humans through computers with AI destroy their own environment and that of many others to such an extent that their survival, and possibly that of the ecosphere and of humanity itself, is threatened. This development we can call “tragical”. Why? Typical for a tragedy in its original Greek meaning, is that it leads to the opposite ultimately of the intended goal. The basic target of communication, cognition, intelligence, AI is more individual and general wellbeing, happiness… but de facto it is realizing again and again disasters, destructions, genocides… How to avoid these tragic developments? Is Wisdom and “AW: Artificial Wisdom” a relevant factor to avoid or minimalize these tragic risks ? How and why?
