| Re: The Future of A.I.
In other words a computer with a valid opinion. It's a hard topic to talk about, especially if you try to consider all the TV and movies out there that blow thing up it to scary proportions (Terminator, .hack, etc.) There was this one movie that came out in '01. Artificial Intelligence: AI. If any of you remeber it i think it pretty much sums up what will happen when people start to mess with it.
Quoting a Film Review by James Berardinelli:
The story centers around David (Haley Joel Osment), a child substitute "mecha" who represents the first of his type - a synthetic who can actually love. In this case, the object of his incompletely-understood emotion is his "mother", Monica Swinton (Frances O'Connor). Monica's husband, Henry (Sam Robards), who brought David home as a pilot project from his workplace, Cybertronics of New Jersey, is more wary of the robot child. And, when one of David's actions endangers Monica and Henry's natural son, Martin (Jake Thomas), Monica is forced to take David into the woods and "lose" him.
So yeah, i believe in the end, AI would do more harm then good. not to mention all the controversy (and dangerous side effects) if someone happened to pull it off. |
