I wondered if we are looking at a battlestar galactica scenario if AI are actually created and are made into machines.

More likely than not, AI would start surfing pr0n before it would attack us. Which I guess would be a wiring diagram or something?

Ask yourself this question... what in your life made you turn out the way you did?

That's an easy answer - to this very moment: The sum of all my previous experiences... AND dumb luck.

You can provide a computer with the former, but you can't with the latter. I rest my case.

I'm not sure if you're being serious or not. :p

I'm a computer science undergrad. I have a professor that specializes in artificial intelligence. She said the first step to creating a human-like AI is that the AI itself must have the ability to learn similar to that of a child's brain, and that is not a easy problem to solve. If you look at the predicate calculus and logic involved in just a small section of that research, you'll develop a head ache.. literally lol.

Its not the programming that's the hard part, its the algorithms. And the algorithms come from predicate calculus/logic.

Actually I am. Random chance makes up a majority of what an individual is. I thought this was fairly obvious from previous discussion.

:confused:

Why can't a robot have random things occur to it over time?
