Artificial Intelligence Learns to Cure Disease

Working recently on an AI project for an Australia based medical company we were able to discover that the AI engine we applied to a large set of medical data was quickly able to determine that death was the most potent cure for disease. Technically death does cure all disease, but we humans intuitively understand death is not the desired outcome. To “fix” the problem we simply marked death as a disease itself and set it as the disease to be avoided above all others. Interestingly, I’ve begun to think that death in and of itself, in a way, is a disease we are simply all born with and we have predominately just culturally accepted it as normal. To be or not to be I guess is still the question.
