  3. Re:Human Intelligence... on When Will AI Surpass Human Intelligence? · · Score: 1

    But Wife 1.0 has a bad tendency to hoard lots of resources when you upgrade. It's difficult to get rid of all the problems and costs lots of money in technical support.

    If you have a "significant understanding of what consciousness is", why don't you share it with us rather than merely mocking Searle's ideas?

    Transformer 2...Is that the movies with the hot babe running in the desert??? I liked that movie! Not sure why they decided to include robots in it though.

    This amounts to 1/4 of total U.S. electricity consumption. Utterly impractical.

    If the Sun was about to explode, would you really want to know about it?

    There is absolutely nothing that we could do to prevent it, and there is nothing we could do to save ourselves... I would prefer not knowing and living a normal life, instead of living in fear for the last days of my too short life. Ignonrance is bliss sometimes.

    It depends where you live... Where i live, the owner is fined for it, except if he can get someone else to testify that he was driving. In which case, the driver is fined. And they do take pictures from the front and back. It's all to save lives, i'm telling ya!

  18. Re:Guilty conscience? on Bugatti's Latest Veyron, Most Ridiculous Car on the Planet? · · Score: 1

    I'm sorry, i don't really care about percentage of earnings. What charities want to get is the most money possible. I really prefer getting 2 % of earnings from someone who earns 200000$ than 10% from someone who earns 20000. In the end, what matters is the real money given. The percentage of income discourse is just a way to try to pry more money from the rich (using guilt).

    It's called charity. People should be able to give whatever amount they want to whoever they want. And no one should have a right to say a damn thing about it.

    Paramount later settled their dispute with Winston only because they really wanted to make the sequel.
