Each Day a Renaissance Day

I read in a newspaper that artificial intelligence cannot bring about a Renaissance. For that matter, the Renaissance was a singular historical epoch that gradually spread throughout the world, either as influence or effect, and none could remain immune from it. It was humanity’s recovery from unexamined beliefs to grounded reason. In fact, that scale is not required today. We now live in a world where we need renaissant minds in the streets, and that is quite possible through the networks which seamlessly connect people.

If the knowing ones avoid this task and remain immersed in defending their lofty positions, which bring them unearned or viciously earned perks and privileges, conditions may gather to necessitate a rather violent renaissance, as the original one was in Europe. The Renaissance opened the way for the Reformation, which unleashed another epoch marred by violence.

If we wish to renaissancise common thinking and living, artificial intelligence can facilitate and substantiate our efforts very smoothly. Thanks to those big corporations, gifting us artificial intelligence, which not only ease our daily lives and noetic endeavours, but also enable us to make each day a renaissant day.
