| I do not believe the mind to be a spiritual thing, but a chemical one (the brain). I believe sprituality itself is a manifestation/product of the mind.
On the topic of AI, a machine is programmed to react a certain way. Human beings are chemical, we react out of our emotions (fear, want, anger, posession) and general nature. Philosophy itself is what leads to the repression of these characteristics, as we are disciplined and taught proper etiquette at an early age. Despite this, sometimes our emotions get the better of us, and we will react with anger or violence for example. A machine is not chemical, it does not have emotions, so it would always react as it was told to react in the situation it interprets itself as being in - no differently.
These are all just my personal philosophies, however.
