Use of AI in relation to Ethics and Morality. Where do we draw the Line? Continue from what I have wrote before, I think the best approach to this dialogue is to ask a simple question - "What is a Civilization?" What constitutes a society to become a civilization? What are the criteria? What are the necessary development which a society have to make in order for it to be considered as a civilization?  While that question could be something redundant to be asked, the truth is, not many could agree with the definition of a Civilization.

As a Graduate of Computer Systems and Network, I have some basic idea what an Artificial Intelligent could look like as automated systems (or structured Systems as we call it). The difference between an automated system and an AI is that automated systems does not remove the needs for human interaction. It still requires humans to monitor, make changes and remove unwanted elements from the system to ensure that the process works smoothly as possible. An AI on the other hand, will remove the need for human interaction and make a calculated guess based on what it had "learned...
