This subject has been coming up here and there over the past years as it has in this video that I came accross recently by chance:

During a minute between 6:20-7:15 time marks, Art Benjamin asks if the next XG will offer verbal explanations of its moves and Travis Kalanick gives his brief opinion that he doubts it.

If the current bots were able to do this now (linguistically correctly, of course), there would be countless positions that I and at least a few of you would react to by saying "bullshit!".

Yet, all of you bot worshippers play those positions like the bots do even if you question their being the correct moves, "believing" that the bots must know something that you don't know and faithfully defer to them.

All you can do for now is to try to read the bot's mind and discuss some fabricated explanations for the bot's moves and then do a rollout to comfort away your doubts.

After all, bots/gods "move" in mysterious ways, right...? ;)

PS1: I think there will be much more "intelligent" bots in the future, hopefully in our lifetime, that will offer verbal explanations for their moves which we won't able to call bullshit.

PS2: According to Pew, 51% of scientists believe in some form of deity and 33% of scientists believe specifically in God.

See: https://www.pewresearch.org/religion/2009/11/05/scientists-and-belief/

So, you all including the "scientists" among you need not feel bad about believing in bots... ;)
