This is a clip of a conversation in a video game that came out in 2000. It is a science fiction game set in the future, and at the time I thought a lot of it was not plausible. But this conversation, which seemed far fetched in 2000, is now eerily accurate. One of the plots of the game is that there is a conspiracy to route all internet traffic through Area 51 and record/control it.

Thought Star Trek covered this with Vger.

Sounds interesting, if not ominous. You can laugh if you want to, but I honestly think certain human beings have already had much of their essential humaness extracted from certain parts of the brain, therapeutic (though unrequested) lobotomies, if you will. The cranial voids now created are then supplanted with artificial software that results in ethic defaults that ‘are more inclined to facilitate and expedite smooth productivity’ vs the stop and go flows of energy that individual questioning tends to create.

Well, what does it know.

The purpose of life, i.e. man’s chief end, is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever.

Human: What is the purpose of life?

Machine: To serve the greater good.

Human: What is immoral?

Machine: The fact that you have a child.

From this, therefore, how do you think Google's Bot would serve the greater good?

Yeah, but does it sing Daisy Bell?

My brother's friends had a LOT of fun with DR. SBAITSO when we were young. Came with a Soundblaster audio card that we put in our 386 machine.

Lee, Freepers wish only the best for one another, so it is with friendly concern for your well-being that I say, your post was weird in a way that makes me think you need to visit your doctor and have a check up to make sure your brain is functioning properly. Your beliefs seem strongly out of touch with reality and the realm of possibility.

Thanks for your concern. However, what you were reading was an impromptu example of my creative writing. I was playing up the sci-fi elements of a prior conversation.
