it was really cool to tawk all the geek tawk. I go back from time to time and will probably post questions in there from time to time. LOL

I am a firm believer when it comes to these talks that there really are NO wrong answers...outside of the box thinking really is what makes all these theories possible.

My fun with 1 and 0 was really that I think life is probably as simple as On and Off, of course, not knocking all the inbetweens, but I think someone said, once we get it, we'd be banging our heads at how SIMPLE it was...

so....

here is my thought of the day...

what's your thought on LOGIC in Robots?

Do you think we'll able to create Robots that can THINK for themselves??

I have my own theories but am interested in everyone's input.

Just wanted to throw this out though...

interactive bots ARE out there now...granted, not to the point where they can look at the Three Stooges and laugh...(well, not unless you teach them)

please throw out your wildest thoughts on this...

I don't know, Moi. I think we need to learn to think for ourselves 1st. LOL

Seriously though, it could be possible but we are not there yet. We have so much more to learn, create, develop etc. before we could do it.

If you think about, say 150 years ago, did they ever think it was possible that they could create something that would go to the moon? Or fly in the sky? Or even vehicles, computers, cell phones, etc.? The concept could be the same with robots that think for themselves.

150 yrs??

I'll be dead by then...unless I am fused with a robot..then I'd be AI...LMAO....

hmmmm..that might be cool, I can be Robomoi (OK, have to give you credit for this name, trish. LOLOL)

yeah, I think we are a long way off for it to really happen...but do you think it will be possible, even 150 yrs into the future?

I mean, Robots that CAN think for themselves, totally independent of software inputs from humans.

a robot that is able to "LOVE" have "PMS" and such??? LOLOL

well, is PMS considered LOGICAL or ILLOGICAL??*scratching head...LOLOL

PS, agreeing!! we NEED to think for ourselves first......LMAO.................

not sure if they will be able to process thoughts, but do think through data and math calculations they will be able to form an answer to given situations, or at least a positive percentage answer. like say the robot finds itself standing and a big bull goes past... I dont think the robot will be able to calculate the thought hmm should i wave a red flag, but I do think it will be able to process the info of what it is and through data be able to sense that this is a dangerous animal

Well Mr Moi, can a robot be taught to think for itself????

I am going to say no because a robot is just a machine that a human has told to do input this, output that...

There may come a day that a robot can respond to an emotional input but in the end the robot is still programmed by a human...

(all those dots at the end mean I am still in the thinking mode so unsure what I mean or what I am trying to mean or...) Ok Chris Rock is on Letterman and I am having trouble focusing ha ha

I will sum up my nonsense ramblings with this (man i hope this works LOL)--way cool it worked.

Cling on!! He's a Cling On!!

Did you see that show on the history channel about robots?

Was real interesting, and it looks like the computer is what we should really worry about because it is what will be the robots brains.

The technology is just screamin along! I dont think it will be too much longer before we have some runnin around servin up lunch, and chatting with the ladies during tea time LOL.

Ah, NOW YOU ACTUALLY ARE TALKING ABOUT ANDROIDS, ARE YOU NOT??

I take it you have seen Commander Data on Star Trek, am I correct?

There you have it, a synthetic, artificial, non breathing, SENTIENT LIFEFORM.

With a positronic brain no less!!!

God, I miss Star Trek!!!

Mel

I hadn't forgotten you guys...but I need a clear head to collect my thoughts on this...

thank you all for your inputs!! Please keep them coming!

Will tackle this when I can make sense...
