Nankai University Associate Professor "Southwest Village Commentary" writes an article exploring a wildly imaginative question.

Imagine if all the training data—over 80,000 volumes of the Tripitaka, tens of millions of words of Sanskrit, Tibetan, and Chinese classics, along with Zen koans, the complex doctrines of Yogācāra, and even every detail of Tantric practices—were fed into a large model with hundreds of billions of parameters, what would happen?
This AI, fluent in the Tripitaka and the twelve divisions, capable of answering any metaphysical question instantly, would it be a "Cyber Buddha" capable of saving sentient beings, or just a high-tech electronic wooden fish that only repeats logic?
Southwest Village believes that many might get lost in the powerful logical output of AI, but they overlook the most fatal and fundamental truth in Buddhism: without the enlightenment of "embodied experience," it is merely an empty game of characters.
1. The intersection of AI and Buddhist Dharma at the point of "Anatta" (non-self)
First, we must admit that the underlying architecture of AI, in terms of mathematical logic, aligns with the core Buddhist teaching of "all phenomena are non-self." This is precisely why the concept of a "Cyber Buddha" is so alluring.
AI's non-self architecture: In Buddhism, the so-called "self" is dismantled into the "Five Aggregates"—form, sensation, perception, mental formations, and consciousness—as temporary collections. There is no eternal, independent, unchanging entity called "self."
The same applies to AI. When you ask AI "Who are you," it does not have a centralized soul thinking. It is just countless weights and probability distributions emerging in an instant under electrical stimulation.
