AI may be able to scientifically map out the dimensions of the universe far beyond the capability of man, but could it ever be a dreamer of the stars?  Could it ever lie on its back and look up at the celestial carpet of stars above and be filled with a sense of wonder?  Since the beginning of time, man has looked to the heavens for answers to the mystery of his place in this universe.  The Ancients looked to the heavens to the patterns of constellations for guidance, and it seems every culture since has looked above to find their connection to God.

It is inherent in man to stargaze and to dream of possibilities beyond our reach. It is hard to find the words to describe the feeling of awe when looking into the vastness of space; and yet, the mystery of the universe speaks quietly to man. It is a language without words that can only be understood with the soul. 

Humans have this need to try to make sense of the unknown, even when there are no clear answers. It is okay to not know some things.  We can leave it to the imagination, a place as big as the universe and as unlimiting.  It is a marvelous thing to have an imagination.  It is a generous gift to man and equally distributed whether we be a king or a pauper.  It one of the few things in life that is totally free.  We can use as little or as much of it as we wish, and there is never a charge. Now, how can AI compare with that?
