This philosophical essay talks about possible socio-psychological problems derived from the general public’s impression around Artificial Intelligence technologies. While these are still being developed, the general public has an impression that AI services offer a trustworthy, godly-like solution to real life problems, sometimes even using these technologies for school or work related issues. The simple act of belief can turn into a catastrophic “Messiah syndrome” of sorts which could ultimately affect society even more than bad use of technology itself.
