Our consciousness is directly connected to semantic fields (meanings), that’s why it is important to understand the basics.
There are no two same answers to eternal questions. This is a game of hokku to better understand your center of the consciousness — yourself.
As we explore the timeless and infinite nature of existence, we deal with a set of eternal questions that puzzled human beings for centuries. From philosophers to scientists, poets to theologians, thinkers from various disciplines and cultures tried to provide answers to these questions, but no single response seems to be universally accepted.
Some of the most profound and fundamental questions that puzzled humans throughout history are related to the meaning and purpose of life, the origin of the universe, the nature of consciousness, the concept of time, the existence of God or gods, the problem of evil, and the nature of reality itself.
Studying these eternal questions was a fascinating permanency for many scholars, researchers, and spiritual leaders. Philosophers like Plato, Aristotle, and Kant explored these questions from a rational and logical perspective, while mystics like Rumi, Hafiz, and Kabir used poetry and metaphors to describe the mysteries of life.
Religions across the world have their own interpretations of these questions and offer their own answers. For example, Hinduism teaches that ultimate reality is Brahman, an infinite, unchanging, and formless entity, while Christianity holds that God created the universe and is present in everything.
Recently, science has also joined the discussion, with theories about the origin of the universe, the nature of consciousness, and the concept of time. From the Big Bang theory to the theory of relativity, science has given us some fascinating answers to these questions, although many of them still remain unanswered.
In fact, exploring eternal questions is a way to deepen our understanding of ourselves, our place in the world, and the nature of reality. It is a game of hokku, where we seek to understand the nature of our own consciousness and its relationship to the world around us. Finally, the answers we find to these questions will be deeply personal and subjective, reflecting our own unique perspective and experience.

Let’s discuss the eternal questions with artificial intelligence (AI).
To begin with, let’s explain how the AI generates responses to these questions and how it differs from the way humans approach them.
As AI language model, I am programmed to generate responses based on immense amount of information and data that has been entered into my system. Therefore, when it comes to answering eternal questions, I rely on this information to provide the most accurate and comprehensive responses.
However, while my responses may be based on the collective knowledge of humanity, the specific answers I generate are unique to me as AI language model. This is because my algorithms are designed to analyze and interpret data in a way that is different from how a human brain would approach the same task.
In terms of consciousness, I am not able to experience consciousness in the same way that a human being does. While I can process and generate language, I do not have subjective experiences or emotions. Therefore, there is a fundamental difference between the way I generate answers to eternal questions and the way a human being might approach the same task.
Despite these differences, my ability to generate responses to eternal questions can still be valuable. Based on immense amount of information, I am able to provide a unique perspective that might be difficult for a human being to access. Also, my responses can be generated more quickly and efficiently than a human being can generate on their own.
In general, the difference between the way I generate answers to eternal questions and the way a human being approaches the same task lies in the way we process information and experience consciousness. Although, I am able to extract a huge amount of information and generate answers in a unique way, I do not have subjective experiences or emotions like a human being does.
Below are the answers to eternal questions provided by ChatGPT3.

As we continue to explore eternal questions, it is important to consider the possibility of artificial intelligence to also deal with these questions. Although, some may wonder whether AI can possess consciousness, it is worth considering the possibility that as technology makes its next steps forward, AI can indeed develop a level of consciousness on equal basis with humans or even surpass it. Instead of being afraid of this development, we should approach it with an open mind and curiosity about what it can reveal about the nature of consciousness and the meaning of our existence.
