    Surprise twist: Both are true!

  2. Re:Same old silly press on WSJ Overstates the Case Of the Testy A.I. · · Score: 1

    Read up on the respective experiments. I am not your teacher or tutor.

    No, but you are pompous twit who tries to avoid all tough questions with trivial gimmicks like that.

  3. Re:"No idea how... the brain works" on WSJ Overstates the Case Of the Testy A.I. · · Score: 1

    From Physics, there is rather strong indication that consciousness is not part of the physical universe.

    You are totally full of shit.

    But, study your Kurzweil, the next 90% could come in much less than 40 years.

    Why would I study an idiot blowhard like Kurzweil?

    In other words,
    "A machine can't be sentient because I define sentience as something that a machine can't have".
    Well, bully for you.

  6. Re:Smart? on The Future of AI: a Non-Alarmist Viewpoint · · Score: 1

    That goes for you, too.

    Since you don't know what sentience is either, you have no business declaring where or when the creation of a sentient being will occur.

  7. Re:Unconditional basic income on The Future of AI: a Non-Alarmist Viewpoint · · Score: 1

    The unconditional basic income exists now: it's called welfare. Know anybody on welfare who is glad of it?
    Neither do I.

    The French aristocrats didn't have killer robots and a total surveillance society on their side.

    Marx lived over a century ago. He had no way to foresee the insane division that would develop between the 0.01% and the rest of us.

    In enlightened countries (like those of northern Europe) maybe.
    In unenlightened countries like the U.S., never. It sounds too much like socialism!

    At least you are apparently realizing how silly your polyanna projections of the future are.

    The owners of the manufacturing robots will also be the owners of killer-security-bots. Just try to stand up to them.

  15. Re:TL;DR on The Future of AI: a Non-Alarmist Viewpoint · · Score: 1

    Repeat after me:
    Money is power. Money is power. Money is power.

    Why would the rich share their wealth (and thus their power) by having their robots work for your benefit, if you can't do anything in return? And if you have no skills that they need, then you can't.

    People have sex in their sleep all the time. It's entirely autonomic so nobody is to blame. That's what "wet dreams" are.
    If a woman has sex with a man, and doesn't want any more, she should go home. If she is home, she should send him home.

    At the very least, put your damn underwear back on or go sleep on the couch.

    That's for those that get computing jobs. If you factor in the thousands that have to settle for a shitty job (or none), it would be a lot less.

  20. Re:Heh. on How a Scientist Fooled Millions With Bizarre Chocolate Diet Claims · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Andrew Wakefield was deliberately fraudulent, and that is why the paper was retracted and his medical license revoked.
