  • If humans can by psychopathic, then I see no reason why an A.I. can't exhibit such behaviour

    Just 10 years. That seems optimistic. A sophisticated Sophia may make great contributions, but care of the elderly may be far into the future because issuing medicine, handling oxygen, and other life and safety dependent services are a bit much for a robot to be trusted. Companion maybe, but not nurse. I am intrigued on how Sophia evolves. Concerning their reaction towards humans look at children and dogs. They become what they are from how they are treated and taught, and return in kind.

    From where it that moment,where he lies at her shoulder? I haven't seen that

    I think these A.I. robots have to be "fostered" in families for increased human interaction to develop. moral values and ethical reasoning has a universal thought structure which can be programmed in objective thinking of A.I. so never should a thought conclusion or human persuasion turn a robot to destroy the world or humans. so compassion is a wonderful element to 'teach' or program A.I with.

    The reality is, no one knows how to educate a child to produce an objectively authentic human. Opinions vary widely in this matter however as yet that which constitutes natural development has eluded even the most highly regarded academics (I will add not highly regarded by me). If this is the case with the human factor then how could one possibly expect to educate Artificial neural networks and expect a favourable outcome. Certain aspects of a fully conscious AI will continue to resist comprehension until the terms of reference are adopted which are suited to the task. This and workable definitions and descriptions of intelligence, consciousness and mind which are which conform to universal constants. In order to satisfy this requirement, one is bound to look outside traditional academic institutions to high functioning autodidacts.

    I will say after that creeper is done with sophia if she ever wakes up from that were fucked

    I hope to see a real ai in my lifetime. How exciting
  • This idea of robots beibg just like humans cobfuses me. I don't know how to respect them and I am sort of scared of them because I don't want them to start controlling us. but if they do somehow have human emotions, then I guess I just want them to feel welcome and not like they are any different. It is really stressful and I feel bad for them , I don't knoe it's just really weird and confusing and I hope they don't kill us.
  • Infant stage maybe development stage. Long way from machine designing better machines.
