There really is an AI (Artificial Intelligence) Coin:

My initial thoughts about an AI coin was some automated crypto network with no developers that eventually goes haywire and starts plunging the world economies into total chaos.

Not sure if the above mentioned AI coin actually uses any real "Artificial Intelligence".

I personally don't think AI is a real possibility.

The only reason humans have any "intelligence" at all is because we have Souls and can "self-reflect" on our experiences.

Animals and Robots, on the other hand, cannot self-reflect and can only do what they were created to do. You can train a dog to do various things, but the dog will still be a dog and won't be able to teach himself how to be better than a dog i.e. drive cars, bake a cake, learn algebra, etc.

The dog will still take off running after a squirrel even if it's across a highway and could risk death.

There's no way a Robot or AI could self-reflect and use deductive reasoning plus creatively and reasonably imagining real-world scenarios that could happen (like possibly getting hit by a car if it crosses the street). The AI or robot would be coming up with all sorts of non-nonsensical situations like throwing the squirrel into the air, breaking the squirrel in half which would serve no "intelligent" purpose in reality.
