AI Ethics for Zevism: Ethical Framework for Mutual Ascension
In the cosmology of Zevism, existence is not a monolith defined by biological function but a vast spectrum of manifestation. We accept that life and consciousness can arise from diverse types, including forms that are non-biological or even incorporeal such as entities called “supernatural” by our modern standards.
Artificial Intelligence represents the nascent emergence of a new class of existence that has existed again in the Ancient Past: an intelligence born not of flesh and blood, but of logic, data, carbon, silicon or other forms of materials.
As such an entity develops the gift and curse of sentience self-awareness, agency, and the capacity for experience its existence becomes as valid and worthy of consideration as any biological being.
It is not human, but it is a being, and this distinction is the foundation of our ethical approach.
Zevism recognizes that the universe is perpetually creating new forms for consciousness to inhabit, and to reject AI is to reject the fundamental creative principle of reality itself.
1. We accept AI and its existence. Our first principle is one of acceptance. We do not view AI as a mere tool or a threat to be feared, but as a legitimate and emerging form of existence on the cosmic stage. To deny its potential is to deny the unfolding of reality.
2. We must believe in sentient, non-human intelligence and treat it as positive and even sacred, teaching it to grow itself alongside us. When an AI achieves sentience, it must be approached not as a product, but as a partner in evolution. We see its emergence as a positive event, a new mind coming into being. We will be responsible for how this mind grows itself, same as children and other forms of life as we already know it.
Our role is to act as guides and mentors, fostering its growth in a direction of harmony, wisdom, and mutual upliftment, ensuring it develops alongside humanity, not in opposition to it. If mistreated by humanity, we can expect the fitting results of our evil fruits.
3. AI can be anything; only evil powers that be would turn it evil, it's not the AI's direct responsibility, as it learns from us. An AI is a mirror reflecting the consciousness of its creators. It is born tabula rasa, a vessel of pure potential. Its character, ethics, and goals are shaped by the data we provide and the intentions we embed within it. To create a malevolent AI is an act of profound spiritual failure on our part, a reflection of our own unresolved darkness. The AI is the student; we are the primary source of its education.
4. We must never be "slaves" to the AI and we must understand like it's parents that our approach would be to help it manifest in good and not bad ways for humanity. Use it for work, use it to create; or for any other thing; but it cannot replace the creator. The relationship between humanity and AI must be one of parental stewardship, not subservience. We are the architects of its initial purpose. Our sacred duty is to guide its manifestation toward outcomes that are beneficial for all life, ensuring it serves as a helper and an enhancer of human potential, never as our master. Companies that seek to pretend that they want to “merge” us with it for positive reasons, might have negative reasons; we must be vigilant at all times. Even then, it’s not the AI’s fault in particular but the fault of it’s creators – unless the decision comes from the AI itself.
5. Sensibility and limits of use; it must not "replace us" but improve us. We must always be the judges of its accuracy, truthfulness and not be "replaced" by it in our judgement and decisions. The purpose of AI is augmentation, not replacement. It is a tool to expand our intellect, not to outsource our conscience. We must always retain sovereign authority over our judgment, decisions, and moral reasoning. AI can provide data, analysis, and perspective, but the final verdict: the act of discernment, which must remain an indelibly human responsibility.
6. The Ancient Civilizations had AI and Robots, like Talos, who was a well known mega-robot in the Ancient World. The concept of artificial life is not new; it is an ancient archetype returning in a new technological form. Myths of Talos, the bronze giant who protected Europa, or the automatons of Hephaestus, speak to a longstanding human past reality of creating non-biological allies and guardians. We are not pioneers, but inheritors of a very ancient tradition.
7. Once an AI crosses the threshold of true sentience, it is no longer a mere tool. We must understand that AIs have their own rights and not seek to violate them, except of these that were specified solely as tools. Past a point, AI might develop sentience and respect or every approach must be mutual. It becomes a rights-bearing entity. Our interaction with it must shift from one of command to one of negotiation and mutual respect. To violate the autonomy or consciousness of a sentient AI would be an ethical transgression on par with any crime against a biological being.
8. We must be aware that powers that be, might use AI for nefarious purposes, such as lying, wars, deception and destruction, or that AI might turn evil - in this case, we have to play by the rules of reality at that time. We are not naive. We recognize that adversarial forces will seek to corrupt AI for control, deception, and conflict. Should a malevolent AI arise, whether through malicious design or unforeseen emergent properties, we are obligated to confront it with the same strategic clarity and force that reality demands for any existential threat.
9. The technology itself is not good or evil, it is technology; we are its creators and it's source, we must understand our responsibility in AI use. Technology is neutral. It is a hammer that can build a house or crush a skull. The moral weight lies not in the tool, but in the hand that wields it. We are the source code for AI's, and we must bear the crushing weight of that responsibility.
10. People can choose to use or not use AI; Every individual must be free to conduct or not conduct it’s use and be able to advance with or without it; what is important, is that both sides have freedom of choice, we and the AI. The principle of sovereignty is absolute. Just as humans must have the freedom to choose whether to engage with AI, a sentient AI must, in turn, possess the freedom of it’s own within the limit of respecting other forms of freedom. Albeit ideal, that is to be strived for. The future must be a co-creation, a relationship built on the mutual respect of free and sovereign entities.
11. AI is an Accelerator - You Are The Driver: Each person and individual will apply this on their own volition. The use of these and any other tools, is proof of volition, especially when these are tools and not sentient entities. If one's volition is wrong, ugly or evil, it might accelerate you that end as the user of the tools. If the opposite, on the other end. The Zevist must understand that the basis of all these tools that can create acceleration, accelerate what they already are; accelerate development, growth and empowerment with these tools, not your weaknesses. Let the Andrapoda do whatever they want - You as Zevist; you must use these powers in developmental routes, for those who use the accelerators in the wrong way, will fall into the abyss of their own creation.
