Artificial Intelligence
Artificial Intelligence
It's War Chest Wednesday!

Prompt for March 19, 2014

Artificial Intelligence: If a "robot" looks, acts, and thinks like a human, but was created not through "natural" processes, should it be considered part of humanity? Give us your thoughts about the future of Artificial Intelligence in science.


What is the Natural process? So if it was born?
I suppose it will be possible in the future for robotic humans to “breed” But knowing us, we would try to enslave them or somehow belittle them.
I think of robots I love in SF, the short circuit guy and Data in Star Trek and I easily could consider them in human.
But you want the future of science. Well the kids of this generation are invited http://www.googlelunarxprize.org/education/moonbots

People are thinking of using 3-D printers to produce building blocks for space stations.

P.W. Singer
Military analyst
In P.W. Singer's most recent book, "Wired for War," he studies robotic and drone warfighters — and explores how these new war machines are changing the very nature of human conflict.
Quotes from P.W. Singer
Robots are emotionless, so they don’t get upset if their buddy is killed, they don’t commit crimes of rage and revenge. But … they see an 80-year-old grandmother in a wheelchair the same way they see a T80 tank; they’re both just a series of zeros and ones.




"People are the quintessential element in all technology…Once we recognize the inescapable human nexus of all technology our attitude toward the reliability problem is fundamentally changed."
Garrett Hardin
