People have to know how to design, build and maintain the robots. And we don't want a true AI, that's the stuff of nightmares. If by "true AI" you mean something like in "2001: A Space Odyssey" then yes, that would be bad. I don't really see how we can avoid creating something like an AI eventually though, especially since the advancements in computer power increase the rate of progress in all scientific fields at an exponentially rate far greater than anything before. Humans are not very good at working all together for a common goal, so even if we can see something bad coming (which I think is especially hard when everything is going so fast) I'm not sure we can prevent it. And I don't neccesarily mean AI Overlords kind of bad. The video had me fascinated and smiling though. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems the feminist doesn't like the word MANDATE LOL. I believe it was George Carlin who many years ago had a piece on eliminating the word man. The bit ended on the job title mail man. Mail person was to be used until they found mail sounds like male, so it was better to use the words person person instead of mail man. Who knew Carlin would be so prophetic in his gig.

Woperson is also sexist, as it contains the word "son", so... Woperchild is not sexist, but spot on! 1 mustangstofear reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
