Just like in the movies, "Scientists are only concerned about IF they can do it, not SHOULD they do it."

For some reason, I'm not a fan of all the work in creating a real artifical intelligence. I guess I have watched "Terminator", "I, Robot", and all the other movies that deal with an artificial intelligence gone wrong way too many times.

Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.

For me computers are good for playing games and typing documents. Not cooking my dinner. That's my mums job

And what makes me sad is that everyone is complaining about unemployment and yet They are busy making things that can replace them. Like I have a washing machine and that depletes the need to have a maid. The washing machine never asks you for a pay raise, always does it's job well, Can dry if the weather is too cold, doesn't need food. The maid is the exact opposite. No prizes for guessing which I will go for Undecided

Is artificial stupidity any worse that natural stupidity.... Wink

"I have a place where dreams are born, And time is never planned. It’s not on any chart, You must find it with your heart."

Albert Einstein - "Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe."

Martin Luther King Jr. - “Nothing in the world is more dangerous than a sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.”

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe - “There is nothing worse than aggressive stupidity.”

Mark Twain - “Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.”

Yes but not a genius scientist working at IBM who CLEARLY has not watched or even heard of The Hit Comic, book, Movie and series Terminator which started almost exactly like this Sad

SKYNET WILL BE UP AND RUNNING SOON.

Better prepare. Lips Sealed

Is anything worse than natural stupidity that the only known species intelligent enough to possess that is Humans who shamelessly display it Grin

I think Einstein said it best "Two things are infinite, the Universe and human stupidity. And I'm not too sure about the Universe" Grin

As long as they remember to program the machines with Asimovs Laws we'll be fine.... but someone is bound to forget Roll Eyes

Nice, Real nice... Leave the machine that is capable of automatically downloading data (Which was the problem in I robot) Install it, obey it, transmit it to other devices in minutes, For something that basically just. sucks Undecided

And You are watching the Vacuum like a hawk and typing here, Seems skynet was transported back in time and found Mark!!!

THE PROPHESY IS COMING TRUE!!!

Relax, guys... if the goal is to merely emulate a human brain, we have nothing to worry about that we don't have already. It's possible such a computer would be even stupider than my Android phone. Grin

The problem with Skynet and similar sci-fi scenarios is that there was basically one node that could control all computer-driven devices through a vast network.
That's why I turn my PC off at night, and I'll never give it robotic hands. Grin
