Sorry, I cannot reconceptualize a hero to separate suffering from
thought. Concepts/thoughts are still thoughts/ mind constructs.
AGI is an artificial mind construct but none suffers in the micro level
of elements like electrons, neutrons and neutrinos {the electrochemical
language of the brain}.
What is a mission, a motive? That too is a thought process arising from
layers of brain matter coming from the top most layer going down to the
lower layer/the emotional layer or the primitive region of the brain,
the seat of emotion.
Some said that emotions are what makes us humans. It goes to show that
AGI is above the lower region of the brain.
