Title
Towards organically working AI

Abstract
Starting from the philosophical inspirations from Western countries, Central Europe, and the Far East, I'd like to go through the current situation in politics, business, science, and education, considering AI. What we do, what we don't do, and what we should think about in the near future. This is, of course, a personal view on that matter; however, it might be a good start for the discussion and give an insight into the current trends in technology and science, going beyond all that we imagined before 2017, when we did not know that all we lacked is attention.
