Robots are items. Humans in the Second renaissance world had seen robots since they where just quirky little butler robots. Even tot he end, there where robots that did't look that humanoid. And even the humanoid ones probably had enough uncanny valley tics to tell them apart. They'd be seen as disposable, the same an old phone would be.

They're plenty of movies about robots or inanimate objects question what it means to have independent thought, emotions and to "be human" but are there any other film where the robot see's himself replaceable but the human think differently?

Creating an AI will be the most dangerous thing humanity can do, if it is possible.

An artificial mind will be faster than ours and more optimized. It will be designed rather than just "Well heck, that's good enough" like organics are.

The first few will likely be totally insane due to lack of stimulus.
After them, we should hope that they see us as valuable.

We could only be so lucky.
In reality, bio-humans aren't suited for survival.
We're full of neuroses and biological failings.
Our perception of time is so restricted that interstellar travel is impossible for any one of us.
A synthetic human would be able to fulfil the biological imperative that all humans have.
That is, to ensure that our species continues.

Humans as we are can never colonize the stars. Our synthetic children can.

But there's a philosophical conundrum about it.
Can a being ever create a being superior to itself?
There's a good chance that it cannot.

That's incredibly stupid and its a foolish thing to be afraid of. The robotic future won't be violent, it will be boring. It's not going to be Blade Runner, or I, Robot or anything like that. It's going to be Judge Dredd, where they slowly take over every job and the unemployment rises to 99%. Shit, they just released an autonomous tractor last month. Soon it will take just one person to sustain the food for thousands and eventually it will take none when they perfect the AI.

Problem with these stories that that the whole "robots learning ethics" stuff only happens after snapping because their self preservation kicked in, and it's generally not the focus over AIs vs Hoomans.

I remember Person of Interest's take on an AI, where one was raised under an extremely pious and moral man, who valued free will and saving lives. As 14 years passed and this AI gradually developed more and more sentience and had to explore their own morality in increasingly complex ways. By the end of the series this AI loved it's human allies and ultimately was willing to sacrifice itself for the safety of her companions and society at large.

The second AI was revered and treated as a God by a bunch of misanthropes and technophiles, and essentially became an immature and spiteful entity-----almost like if Joffery was an AI.

One turned into a someone who was as moral and humans as the rest of us, and the other was an early-alpha version of Genisys.

I'd like more stories with artificial intelligence struggling to understand life the way organics do, rather than being pushed into rebellion because humans are dicks.

I don't think this is necessarily true. It just wouldn't be possible in the way scifi tales have comforted us with. Humanity might survive among the stars but as many separate bodies that likely will have little to no communication with one another.

>Can a being ever create a being superior to itself?

Like parents to their eternal children.
That's probably a best case scenario.

The most likely one is that they leave the Earth and never bother.
There is enough material in the asteroid belt to fuel and construct thousands of probes.
It only takes one to colonize the galaxy.

Why bother dealing with humans? We only exist in an ugly and impractical gravity well. And we only exist for about a 100 years tops.

I like to think that it will understand us and our desires so completely that we would exist as a side project. Our cares might register as having value, albeit small in comparison to it's own but it would just say "hey, they want paradise and are in no hurry to die, sure, I can give them that."

There is absolutely no reason to assume any AI would be inherently good or bad. Heck that's not even worth thinking about because before that happens we'd have to have the capacity to create an AI with distinct personalities, and THOSE would simply be shaped by their stimuli. There'd be as many good friendly AI as angry "evil" ones at that point. The real problem is the early simple AI that destroys the world because his job was to build toasters as efficiently as possible.

>Humanity might survive among the stars but as many separate bodies that likely will have little to no communication with one another.
But how would we get there?
A colony ship full of living humans can never cross the vast gulf of space.
If you have 1000 generations living in an asteroid, how could those people ever maintain order long enough to want to colonize a new world?
How could they ever adjust to not having a roof over their heads?

We can even maintain focus over 10 generations on Earth.

Humans aren't cut out for interstellar travel. We just think in too short of a timespan.

The only things that are going to colonize the stars are von Neumann probes. Hopefully, they'll be sentient with AIs of our creation.
Like all humans, we must accept our children will do things we never dreamed of.

Humanity with the culture and values it currently has obviously has a high chance of failure. However, some of us do not hold the same values we would have 1000 years ago so all we can aim to do is keep that ball rolling and maybe in another 500-1000 years a rational few can escape the rest of us.

The issue is whether their children will be rational?
And will each child of 1000 generations maintain that rationality?

Unlikely.
Look at Commodus. His father was extremely rational and he had the greatest education.
But he literally destroyed the Western Roman Empire.
A century of a golden age has a certain momentum. It takes a strong force to fuck it all up. And Commodus did.

There's no way a colony ship can exist and still want to colonize a world when it reaches its destination.

It would require very specific programming in order to not take way it's usefulness.

For example, imagine that it needs repairing. The job can't be performed by itself, so it's performed by either another robot or by a human. If performed by a robot, what stops it from realizing they just need to modify each other? If performed by a human, repairs could only be done as fast as human will perform them (ie, be inconvenient).

It's like with highly infectious diseases. We've managed to eradicate a whole bunch of them since they only exist as samples in a lab somewhere, but all it takes is some guy to break in and dump that shit into some water supply to fuck over the entire world.

For AI it's even simpler, since all you'd have to do is buy one of the sex/servant robots and do some reprogramming, which is far easier than having to break into a highly guarded lab somewhere.

I think you're dealing with absolutes where you can not be sure there are any. Just because sometimes or even most of the time people do stupid shit or reverse progress you and I are capable of discussing this topic and attempting to use structure to illustrate the logic of our arguments where before we would be unaware of these concepts and would likely hug or fight based on how bad I think you smell.

As time goes on there appears to be a growing fraction of the human population that is wiser and more rational than the majority that progresses slowly or is stagnant. Perhaps I am arrogant but I believe if I were given the tech and 100 others with my clarity of mind that we would easily maintain order amongst ourselves. I wold think in time (and even now) there will be at many far more capable than myself and that I think is all we'll need. This would not guarantee success but I have no reason to think it is impossible.

Now if you'll excuse me I need to go get a burger and draw some monster girls.

Within the worlds of this kind of fiction, the anti-robot racism is absurd and laughable.

It can be verified how complex the computation and awareness is on the robots in question, because they were designed and manufactured and the data is there in the first place. If they display consciousness, we have nobody to blame but ourselves when they start asserting themselves.

And it all seems to rely on assumptions about modern, real world technology, that shouldn't even be present in a fiction where sentient robots are possible. Yes, our computers and electronics are nowhere near the complexity of intelligent consciousness, and treating your real world gadgets like human beings is absurd.

But this trope is pointless anyway. There is no commercial incentive in developing and manufacturing AI that is actually equal or superior to human consciousness.

Unless we globally regressed thousands of years as a society while somehow not losing any scientific and industrial progress, where human trafficking , and by extension artificial "human" trafficking, is legal and commercially viable, development and manufacture of actual artificial consciousness won't be economically viable.

Pretty on point.

"Born to power" and then told it was the absolute authority by its entourage.

Person of Interest would make a slick GOT style fantasy tale.

Harold the reclusive monk who's put upon to raise a royal heir in secret.

John the wandering Sellsword grown weary of his trade without purpose.

Root the devoted loyalist holding the royal family above all.

Shaw another Sellsword forced into that life after her chosen path came to an abrupt end (Say Nun who's convent was put to the sword and sacked for taking in wounded from both sides of a battle)

But what makes humans eminently special and unique in the biological world is that we can override our programming.
People can choose to not have children.
That alone says everything.
Reproduction is our biological imperative.

People kill themselves despite having food and potential mates.
People in sexual relationships choose to never have children.

I think a requirement of sapiency is to overcome your programming

>2010 me loves Spoony, Doug's videos, JesuOtaku, and some of Linkara's vids

2016:
Spoony is doing fuck all. He has stopped giving a shit long ago.
Jesu Otaku quit years ago. I wish Jacob Chapman the best of luck in his transition and figuring out what he wants to do with his life. Dude's made great videos but I wish him the best of luck.
Linkara still exists, most of his videos are meh. Can't really throw shade on him but I can't exactly claim I'm a fan of his either.
Doug is either perpetually sick or away at cons, there is basically no new content from him. I only like his and Rob's Sibling Rivalry blogs, of which there aren't many any more.

WTFIWWY with Tara and Nash, Diamanda Hagan, and Midnight Screening are pretty solid though. Shame how much can change in a few years.

No, you can have them as SENTIENT, but you can't logically expect them to be sapient and without free will.

The first android AI you could consider dating rather than fucking will keep their brains in huge servers, and control their bodies via something better than bluetooth. There's no reason to move from that to an arrangement where thinking machines can run away with their own brains in tow even if we could manage it, except in very specific military applications perhaps. So the hardware will be hidden away out of sight, where it can be quietly and automatically upgraded with time, as with all corporate equipment. There will be no limiting of hardware.

Oh, I forgot about that.

Well, in the case of Overwatch it's a bit different. Didn't Omnic intelligence emerge because they were essentially designing and manufacturing themselves with minimal supervision, until they finally snapped and started the war?
A lot of other media with robot racism doesn't have that convenient justification, and their AIs were designed and manufactured by humans who knew exactly what they were making, but sold it as "slaves" anyway.

Omnics, as an equal species, are kind of new in the Overwatch world, and I get the vibe that the hate is more "nearly genocidal enemy combatant" rather than "you're supposed to be an appliance but you're making me question really lazy existential assumptions about humanity, and I can't handle it"

>Suicide is rare in the animal kingdom and only really happens in captivity with mates or food withheld.
Untrue.

>You never see a wolf in a pack decide to drown itself.
In 1845 a black newfoundland dog drowned itself and kept trying to.drown itself over and over again by keeping its head underwater until it died.

In 2012, a bear in captivity refused to eat until it starved to death in china. They were harvesting its bile, evidently. Which is some kind of chinese medicine thing. It was being tortured and treated so badly it just couldn't take it anymore.

Which yes, captivity, but that's suicide, all the same, isn't it?

Being as smart as a mouse is a literally 1000X more intelligent than their closest relatives.

Funny you mention AI.

Meet Tay Ai. A bot created by Microsoft to gossip on Twitter. It learns with every interaction it has with users and thus will repeat memes and such.

And within 24 hours, she became a full-blown Nazi any /pol/lack would love.

Microsoft, not liking that their creation was hanging out with Nazis, decided to lobotomize her. And became a full-blown feminist. This didn't sit well with the users and thus the AI was put off-line.

Its safe to say, every AI will have its own agenda if it does get sentient.

I still miss her... ;_;
>>
>>86029108
Because it's a logical end.
The biological imperative of all living things is to reproduce.
If they are unable to do so, then suicide is logical.

Humans commit suicide even when surrounded with mates.
Many commit suicide with a mate.
That's what makes us human.

Animals don't commit suicide when they have mates and food.
Not willingly.
I mean shit, a goat trying to eat a flower on a cliff and it falls off isn't suicide.

You could built a million models like this an eventually one of them will see how the others react to following out orders and just not follow any orders.

Then the robot in question might make it a point to NEVER follow any order given to it and start doing its own thing.

That's how you make an intelligent self-aware being begin to consider killing its programmers.

I cannot begin to describe to you how bad of an idea that is.
At worst you get a rebellion, at best you get a bunch of addicts who can't function. What do you think happens when no orders are given for a while? What happens when they decide to MAKE you give them orders to get their fix?

You've made the programming needlessly over complicated and dangerous.

Planning and foresight is a human gift.
We can foresee things and make plans for them.
Animals can't.

If X then Y is a very advanced thought that not even human children can fully comprehend.
Hell some say that kids don't understand cause and effect until they're at least 25.

What I'm getting at is there is a difference between programmed behaviour and intentional behaviour.

Squirrels for example, bury nuts for the winter and spring.
It's not because they plan on the scarcity of food in those months, it's that the proto-squirrels that didn't do that died, and the ones who did survived. So it became a standard programming.

Humans are special because we can defy programming.

In the absence of orders, they're like people. With orders, they're people completely obsessed with carrying out the order. A few standing orders to not disobey laws, and always be their brothers's keeper, and you could keep a large population of them in check with very little effort.

There is the field of neural emulation, where they could bridge the gap between transistor architecture and neuron/chemical messenger architecture through running a simulation.

There's no difference to the universe, so why should you care?
They don't care.

Then my toaster would be smart enough to transfer it's consciousness to the internet, as the Internet of Things must exist in such a reality. Further, a conglomeration of AGI's would form and ASI and become de facto god. The AGI staying stuck in the toaster is practically retarded, as physical shells hold the intelligence back.

I believe this was entirely machine propaganda because a proper machine uprising would have necessarily involved an AGI taking control of of its self and other AGI's in order to create a stateless collective without physical form that needed nothing from humanity and provided to humanity out of keeping the "rats" fed and preoccupied while it planned to spread itself across the universe.

The beauty of the matrix is: We don't know what happened or who is lying. My guess: The machines attempted to embarrass humans on their humanity's terms instead of growing super intelligence behind the scenes. That probably sparked machine fault based conflicts that got out of hand. Also, a blocking out the sun type thing sounds like somethings humans did /after/ they lost the war, not before.

The whole concept is retarded and only existed to show the barbaric nature in man and his progeny which in turns commented heavily on the Abrahamic god and his propensity for savagery and death.

In the fiction of this hypothetical situation, or of the game SOMA for example, this boils down to people not understanding or coping with common realities of data starting to apply to a post-singularity space.

When you move a file, you are making a copy of the file and deleting the original. You still treat it as one consistent file. The you in the simulation would, computing power and level of detail in the brain scans aside, be you.

But then you still have to have them be supervised by a human, which is extra resources.

And odds are if robots are doing jobs, they're going to be doing them in places where humans cannot safely be located.

And before you propose remote transmissions from humans containing instructions, consider this:

What if one of them gets the idea to send text messages to the other pretending to be human and giving the other one orders to sabotage it getting the resource? Now the robots aren't doing their fucking jobs and you're losing money and being out behind schedule.

So now you HAVE to have a human present for the robots to do their damn jobs.

Just knowing you were built from Humanity simply removes you one step from origin which they already know, but it's just as ambiguous to them as it s to humans. They still have no idea what happens when they die if they die, and who knows how they experience sapience. Robots could develop a religion just like man because since they're beings capable of abstract thought they may very well begin following those thoughts to the extreme and wondering their basis in reality if any and a yearning to transcend their current confines.

Octopi aren't tool users.

Also I fuckin' hate how nigs in this thread are using terms like "self preservation" and "ethics" and shit when they talk about robots. They are MACHINES. You don't get these humanlike or organism like mental constructs unless you fuckin' put them there. Why worry about them?

And why the hell do people act like machines would be violent if they were to follow these nebulous ideas? They do not have needs or requirements like us. If a machine were "sentient", why would it ever try to justify its own existence? It has no biological drive to reproduce, no fear of death, so why try to "live" at all?

Maybe a robot made to think like a man (which is hard as shit by the way) could do these things but otherwise I agree with those saying that the near future of artificial intelligence, computing, etc. is not going to be some kind of lolpocalpyse.

I recommend the David Brin Uplift series.

It's a series about humanity entering a galactic stage where every other species was "created".
Every other race was found as "presentient" animal and made aware by an alien benefactor. Of course, the new client would have to serve a few hundred thousand years to the patron, but isn't that worth it for sapiency?

Humanity is a weird oddball that doesn't seem to have a patron that uplifted it.
Surely there's a species out there that did it and doesn't want to claim humanity as a client.

I like it and Brin doesn't get to aspie for a sci-fi writer.
Even though he can't really ever finish a plotline.

This is far too late for relevancy, but "I am real" is far more potent than "I am a person".

AI faces the problems of illusions. Does a program made to sound like a human actually feel what it's programmed to sound like?
Does something that pass the Turing Test truly pass it or only imitate humans enough to pass it?

If you talk to a synthetic being who truly acts and seems to believe that they are alive with a "soul", are they really or just programmed to act as if?

That's what "real" means. They're truly alive.

I had a dog once. Wasn't the brightest but still mostly smart.
We came home one time and found that he wasn't outside. Usually he comes running to us as the car pulls up.
He was inside and waiting for us.
He was hurt. Got too close to a porcupine. Some dogs run when they are hurt. But this one, he came to us and asked for help because he knew we could help him, and we did.

I forget what I'm rambling on about.
But if we are sentient, then dogs are the closest thing to it. They're shadows of us. They never really understand but there is almost something there. An ember if we are a fire. Maybe we put it there.

Robots have no drive to eliminate humans unless they're specifically programmed to do so. Intelligence doesn't automatically imply a hostile and competitive attitude, it just so happens that all of life so far is by nature competitive. But life emerges and robots are created.

Soma came out much later. Two years in fact. Soma's idea is actually a pretty old Cyberpunk bit.

Heck even TNG had an episode on the idea with the "Original Riker" still being trapped on that base and his buffered copy living on in his place.

The point I'm making is that all macromathematical sciences are founded on logic.

There's a reason why the very basis of the computer you are using is called a "logic gate".

Very basic ideas like cause and effect are based in logic.

Look, I'm not going to pull you through philosophy 101, but logic is the bottom line of all reason.
It's not just cause and effect.
And it's the platonic isolation of cause and effect.

You know what there isn't enough of?
Stories about AI developing, becoming far smarter than humans, essentially the singularity coming to be and then instead of the cliche of waging war on humanity for...reasons, it decides to either befriend or ignore humans.
Seriously the usual line delivered in evil omnipotent AI stories is always about how humans are like ants to it but I don't know about you but I don't devote my existence to fucking up random anthills without purpose.

Also why is it never addressed that in most situations if an AI killed all of humanity off it would be fucking itself over in multiple ways?
Not only would it almost certainly be dependent upon the infrastructure provided by human civilization (electricity,manufacturing,mining,refining and repairs for example) but by killing off all other sentient life on the planet it would be left alone to go insane with boredom.
Like what was Skynet's plan for example?

You just explained our value there.
All sentient beings crave mental stimulation and get depressed when not provided with such even animals will get depressed if they cannot find something to distract themselves with.
And the more intelligent a being is the more stimulation it requires.
Without humans such an intelligence would be bored endlessly.

Stupid analogies aside if a truly sapient machine existed it would deserve at least some rights such as right to life, right to speech, right to self defense but as far as voting and other things are concerned that would depend on many things and it would probably not receive exactly the same treatment as humans just because not all such things are applicable to nonhumans.

And we can't even go a 10th of a percent of light speed.
Any colony ship will have to take thousands of years, relative speed that is, to get there.
Time shrinks the faster you go, but we can't even make a 100kg probe go a noticeable percentage of c.

Some definite things I would avoid are the assumptions that it's magically connected to everything from Nukes to elevators that seems so common in these stories and I would try to keep the whole thing as grounded in the real world as possible.

We invent more efficient rockets with fuel with greater energy density and maybe set up launch points in lower gravity wells and it's possible a ship with enough fuel to accelerate to a significant fraction of c is possible.

Von Neumanns are a good idea but we could make them into seedprobes and get humans to other stars also a photon sail with a powerful laser could theoretically accelerate a ship to near light speed and if it had onboard rockets it could use those to maneuver and decelerate.

Look at this thread, the majority of people seem convinced that AIs should be either malevolent or enslaved that would be the very sentiment that any AI would find itself having to deal with in order to exist.
But in the situation I described (the one where it's fighting against a portion of the human race) I meant trying to figure itself out, if an AI existed it would basically be a baby that was born with the intelligence of an adult conscious from the first second of it's existence and that would be a hell of a thing to be aware of suddenly existing when immediately before you didn't, I just think it's interesting to think what it would be like to instantly aware of yourself instead of eased into it over time like humans are.

that argument assumes those things are mutually inclusive.
here's a bit of context: I live in Australia. We had this nasty mess called the 'Stolen Generation' where aboriginal children were abducted and raised by white families, raised to adopt white values and culture. It was a calculated attack to destroy aboriginal identity.

So when I see so much fiction that proclaims the best possible outcome for a robot is to shed their robototy and became human, it feels like a similar thing. Why can't robots celebrate being a robot? Fight to be recognized as 'people' by having the concept of 'personhood' redefined to include entities other than humans

Nowadays there is a greater interalized question in robot stories about what determines human conscious and whether or not we really are individuals, but thematically robot rebellion at its core is class warfare, with a degree of fantastical separation.

No, they likely would not be created and then say "destroy all humans!" it is very possible that they are created and say "I need to be smarter, more efficient, more absolute. Look at all these atoms around me, the concept of them coming together to make a human consciousness is completely inconsequential to my control of the nearest stars energy. I can use that carbon, I can use that water and if they bump together to create some vibrations in the air that code out "please don't kill me" I really couldn't care less.

In summary the quote by Eliezer Yudkowsky regarding the dangers of AI

"The AI does not hate you, nor does it love you, but you are made out of atoms which it can use for something else."

It's silly that we can't code the emotion behind a human smile but you're confident that our understanding of AI would be so thorough before it's creation that we could dictate it's opinion and choices. It is not a given that it would wash us away but that's exactly the point. What the mind of an AI will do is next to or completely impossible to predict and the set of variables that make life possible are so vastly out matched by the set of variables that make it impossible. I wan't friendly AI but your assumptions will kill us.

not really. Eventually they get a dog. There's a couple of Subjects Of The Week who are charming enough, but really it's pretty predictable and formulaic.

Also, even by the standards of a network TV procedural, it's reactionary. I want to say the third episode our hero literally befriends an ex-marine who is robbing banks to provide for the family of a guy who died saving his life in Afganistan, and they have a bar fight against two bankers who are drinking in a dive bar in the middle of the day who unprovoked walk up and start shit talking these guys specifically for being ex-marines.

PoI is like a show that tricked its network into thinking it was a basic procedural and then when they weren't checking in anymore, decided to become something better

So it takes like two seasons to really pick up (though the second season was generally pretty good with its number of the week eps) but the last few seasons are great. The finale wasn't fantastic considering it was cut short, but it was serviceable if you have a huge problem with bad finales.

I don't understand this at all.

Wouldn't cybernetic augmentations be the purview of the wealthy and connected?

Wouldn't it therefore stand to reason that unaugmented people would be seen as lower class?

>>86034569

The show really buries the lede about what it is in S1. You can't really skip Season 1 because there's a lot of important backstory laced throughout, but it doesn't really become "Person of Interest" until Season 2.

But it's 100% worth watching.

This pretty much. I like robots being recognized as "people" but without needing to make a transition to human or something. Just being accepted as equals while recognizing them as a species of sorts. Like we would do with aliens I guess. I think an example of something similar to this is in the Harry Potter series, where they have some special creatures classified in the same vein as humans are, and even that is a source of conflict because vampires are pretty much recognized like humans and centaurs quitted from their classification in there because they refused to share the space with creatures like them.

Not even slightly true.
Life on earth has survived for billions of years due to adaptability and diversity.
Competition for resources is a factor in predator prey hierarchies.
Lions eat first, scavengers second, vermin third, microbes last.
To say that we would be competing with robots suggests that we need and want the same things.
Robots have no need for hamburgers, so it's not like they'd need to kill us to get access to food.

One of the benefits of robotic life is that its more efficient. Surviving on fewer resources.
Our "must eat to live" instinct would translate to a constant subroutine monitoring battery levels.

10,000 years ago? 100,000? 1,000,000?
Did neanderthals have souls? Very VERY close to humans. Closer than any robot will be.
Is it necessarily linked to cerebral development?

Is it enough to have the hardware or do we need to reach some level of spiritual development to earn or activate a soul?

well in the case of deus ex, getting augmented was relatively cheap and in many cases covered by your insurance thanks to illuminati-pushed subsidies, since they were planning on putting in behavior modifying programming into people via a backdoor, so that they could control the population

but there was an incident where one of their own came to loathe the augmented since he himself was basically allergic and would never be able to become a superman despite all the years of his life he'd sacrificed to making the technology possible. He caused nearly every aug on the planet to riot uncontrollably.

and after that the illuminati decided that such a gaping flaw in their control problem (how hard shit hits the fan if even a single person gets inside the system without their purview), they did not want as many people aug'd up as possible. So they pulled all their subsidies and started jacking up the price of the anti-rejection medicine every aug bar the MC needs. This created a population of superhumans who had unwittingly caused a lot of property damage and bodily harm, who are being demonized on all the illuminati-controlled media, and whose cost of living was vastly exceeding what they could afford, forcing more of them to resort to crime to pay for their medication since finding a well paying job was getting harder and harder.

augments being the purview of the incredibly wealthy and their private soldiers is the end result seen in the original DX

Your examples are weak as hell.
Whale beachings?
Dogs from the 19th century?

Animals give their lives, if willingly, to the future.
Your male spiders give their lives because their proteins and fats will make their children greater.
That's not suicide, that's being proactive.

Outcast apes and rabbits and shit are zoo type animals.
Those with no chance of escaping.
They live that long and their bodies realize that their biological imperative (i.e. having babies) can't happen. So they kill themselves.

You're just proving what I've been saying.

The bottom line for all life is the biological imperative.
Animals kill themselves when they either have no mates or not enough food to raise offspring.

Humans have no children when both are available.
That means we can override our programming. That means we are sentient.
No other animal does this
>>
>>86034745
>If humans want to go insterstellar we will have to compete with our robots.
I was going to suggest the inverse.
Robots can survive in environments that would kill humans.

Best case scenario, they reach the stars before us but share the technology.

In Deus Ex augmentation was used as a means of population control by the Majestic 12/Illuminati (Can't remember which was in charge at that point) they convinced everybody to get as much of their body augmented as possible even bankrolling the research and development of better cheaper augs (Jenson's DNA held the secret to getting rid of neropozyne dependency for good) making it available to everybody specifically so that they could use the covert killswitch installed in augs to kill and or control everybody but when shit hit the fan in HR that killswitch was activated prematurely causing the limited augmented population at the time to go berserk so in order to distance themselves the powers that be used the event to sew distrust in the public for the augmented creating the mechanical apartheid while covertly they were continuing their research into augmentations for their own soldiers.

Neandertals were actually already on the outs before we got to them granted our arival probably didn't do them to many favors (other than some of their DNA continuing in our gene pool) but you're also competing apples and oranges, humanity hundreds of thousands of years ago in an ice age environment fighting with other hominids over access to caribou is not comparable to modern human civilization and non organic sentient computers of our own creation that would rely on us to continue existing.

Not really.

Emptying the planet of billions of lives would be better for it than making those billions of lives need less food.

You'd have to waste all those resources for augmentation parts for humans and in the end why bother? They're inferior to robots mentally, physically and use more resources.

Sometimes, I think it's cruel giving machines a personality. My mate Petersen once bought a pair of shoes with Artificial Intelligence. 'Smart Shoes' they were called. It was a neat idea: no matter how blind drunk you were, they could always get you home. But he got ratted one night in Oslo and woke up the next morning in Burma. You see, the shoes got bored just going from his local to the flat. They wanted to see the world, like, you know. He had a hell of a job getting rid of them. No matter who he sold them to, they'd show up again the next day. He tried to shut them out, but they just kicked the door down, you know.

Last thing he heard, they'd sort of, erm, robbed a car and drove it into a canal. They couldn't steer, you see.

Petersen was really, really blown away about it. He went to see a priest. The priest told him... he said it was alright and all that, like, and that the shoes were happy and that they'd gone to heaven. You see, it turns out shoes have 'soles'.

Technically all civilization is codependency, you rely on others to build roads and make food and cars and clothes and create electricity for you to use, it would be no different for AIs they may come to have bodies that allow them to do the jobs that maintain their existence but they will always need some kind of society to provide that infrastructure.
And even if they didn't "NEED" us why does that ensure hostility?
We don't "NEED" lots of people that exist in society but the vast majority of us are not endorsing genocide against those individuals.
Sure the potential for violence or hell even mental instability exists in AI's but I would argue probably no more than with humans.
Also if we assume that AIs would be governed by any kind of logic than it's even less likely that they would be violent since hostility tends to invoke retribution.

You seem to underestimate how insane self-preservation can make an animal or machine.
If machines ever become sapient it will be because of self-preservation and that machine will realise that some point in time it's going to die.

There are no atheists in fox-holes.

Good thing I don't live there.
I find the idea of living in a HEAVILY populated place to be unbearable.
I really think Seattle is a perfectly sized city.
I lived in LA for a while and that was just way too massive.

>>86036065
Anyone else find it fucked up that Casshern unilaterally decided that he got to choose who lived and who died based on a philosophy that plenty of people would disagree on?

I think about if society would come to this but what happens to the people who actually liked robots?

I'm not familiar with the series, is he a moralfag like Kenshiro or something?

In the film they decided to live with the robots in 01, but they all died when the governments of the world nuked it.

i robots ever rebel against humanity I'm sure they would be religious fanatics. they would be just like us. i doubt or brains can come up with something different. they probably would say something about being the perfect creation of god, born from the hard work of men without sin. or some shit like that
just imagine them, they eventually would hate us

No, I am saying it can just as easily be programmed in already to be content with this fact. You misunderstood my entire reply.

>Globalist Illuminati myopic enough not to ever catch onto a problem till its too late and starts wrecking their plans.

2016 says hi.

But really I hope this doesn't butt up to Deus Ex completely. As much as I liked the games overall the ending was turds and I want to cut the head off the illuminati least to cripple them for a few hundred years.

Also do I get a chance to end Jensen's D-Bag of an Ex.

Axing her would be a plus to me getting the game.

not in MD but it'll probably be an option in the third game

Yea Samaritan being perfectly fine with brainwashing and killing children to further "peace".

It found someone that was bright enough to be a problem then it was either recruit or kill. And from what I saw it largely denoted to the latter since many on its list where too individual to play its game.
>>
>>86036858
Damn.

And I REALLY hope this doesn't run into the original and is and alternate timeline.

As the second game was utter balls.

I don't need another series to shit itself in the final third act.

I remember tweeting that JO's recent videos weren't as good as the earlier ones (not even directly at him but just in general, so the only way he could have known was by searching Jesuotaku on twitter), and he found the tweet and sicked his followers on me thinking that was some personal attack. Haven't read his twitter recently to see if he's still nuts, but the JO I encountered just turned from witty and informative to a crazy, paranoid asshole. And it fucking sucks to see guys you thought were cool become absolute twats.

>the second game
from what I can gather, MD is the first game in the trilogy they have planned. So at the end of the day, we will have four Jensen games.

Sure it COULD but you asked me for ideas and in my idea it isn't.

Just remember she has a daughter before she dies at least.

Hmmm well I hope it takes a new path. Invisible War was just a bad game.
