The chatterbot technology and its application to spirituality is gaining popularity around the world. ChatGPT, a natural language processing tool relying on artificial intelligence, is being used to create conversations that are almost like real conversations. To delve into how this technology can be used for spiritual exploration, we must first understand two very important aspects of spiritual growth: cognition and mindfulness.
Cognition is the process of understanding spiritual knowledge, either by hearing discourses or studying the scriptures. However, knowledge of the scriptures is not enough, since wisdom is to be gained from the knowledge that is acquired. This is the core theme of the ‘Dhyan Yog’ chapter in Bhagwad Gita, in which Lord Krishna specifies that knowledge is better than practice and meditation is better than knowledge.
Furthermore, according to organizational theorist Ikujiro Nonaka, knowledge can either be implicit or explicit. Whilst ChatGPT can comprehend only the explicit knowledge, it fails to understand the implicit knowledge associated with understanding the divine presence. The Upanishads that were written by ancient sages illustrate an abundance of knowledge. However, ChatGPT is limited in its ability to truly understand its implications.
ChatGPT is a product of human intelligence and cannot be the Master. The true Master is the Supreme Self, or Brahmn, and according to the Mundaka Upanishad, those who can recognize and understand the Supreme Brahmn will reach the highest level of knowledge.
ChatGPT is developed by a team of experts whose mission is to bring the best conversational AI technology to its end-users. The team works on launching innovative applications based on their advanced AI technology. The company strives to deliver top-notch customer service and offers a whole spectrum of AI-powered solutions.
Ikujiro Nonaka is a prominent Japanese organizational theorist and is a leader of the Knowledge Creation School. He believes that knowledge is generated not just from hearing lectures or studying textbooks but from transforming the context of this knowledge into something that can be understood and relied upon. He has made significant contributions to the field of knowledge management emphasizing the importance of knowledge sharing.
