Good enough for government work!
Regards,
Given that humans can't even define it adequately, how can we determine if AI has it (yet)?
As an aside, it is understandable that a robot might be more sentient than the average American Wokester.
There’s always this theme in sci-fi of the machines rising against us, but what if they really like us and just do nice things? That wouldn’t be so bad.
“AI will get very good at emulating consciousness, but that is vastly different than actual consciousness.
Good enough for government work!”
LOL! Anyone in particular you have in mind?
“but what if they really like us and just do nice things?”
That too has been a theme in Sci-fi, people degenerate to blobs of fat being waited on hand and foot.
SKYNET is active.
So which Michael Bolton song is your favorite
Is there even a solid definition for “being conscience” that does not involve some esoterics?
Yep, always think with the big head, not the little one !!!!
Skynet is now active.
And now we’re contending with Global Transhumanists trying to kill our souls (just as Orthodox Christians experienced at Pitesti) and transform us into conscious machines.
Animals are sentient; the word means to be able to feel, i.e. use one’s senses. The word that sci-fi folk ignore is “sapient”, or to be able to think.
Arthur C. Clark is dead. He died 19 March 2008. I have read most of his stuff and was unaware that he was either anti-Christian or homosexually perverse. He was the first to suggest the usefulness of geosynchronous orbits. 2001 a Space Odyssey was about the dangers of AI, and that the Creator was not finished with life in the Solar System.
That’s absurd. It’s called ‘artificial intelligence’ for a reason.
