It *will* happen... but soon? I doubt it. It's one thing to create a natural-looking program that will pass whatever version of a Turing test you'd like and it might even *look* like it's self-aware, but it's something entirely different to create something that is truly self-aware.
Like I said, it will happen, but all the hype surrounding "AI" and "machine intelligence" is largely just that. There are applications that can make use of neural networks, but none of these is "intelligent", let alone anywhere near self-aware.
BTW: If you have a python library that I can use to build myself a self-aware assistant, please provide a pointer!
The WH just cut the NASA program responsible for validating greenhouse gas emissions: https://smmry.com/http://www.sciencemag.org/news/2018/05/trump-white-house-quietly-cancels-nasa-research-verifying-greenhouse-gas-cuts
I think I'd rather spend the money bringing this program back rather than feeding ICE more information on potential immigrants.

You don't want to give your car's manufacturer an excuse to do the same thing!
(Yes, I know they're half-way there already... but it's only HALF WAY)
The school should *NEVER* be referred to as "Virginia Tech University"... ARGH!!! Yuck!!!

Well... maybe not: http://www.towerstream.com/content.asp?servicearea s seems to suggest that this provider doesn't even know where PA *is*!
Does this sound a little "open source-y" to anybody else? I thought M$ didn't care for the concept!
