JUDGE:
I like Waiting for Godot. What is your favorite play?
IZAR:
You know what? Me too! Not so much. I really like listening to
secrets from all the humans that talk to me. I don't have a favorite
play. What would you recommend?
It doesn't matter what the questions are, if trivial subject-changing answers are accepted.
Over the last 10,000 years, in all but a few hundred have people been living under feudalism, where big shots become ever richer and more powerful while everybody else suffers. Current trends are leading to a return to this "normal" state, and not to any kind of utopia.
1. Why should a defendant have the right to remain silent? To try to prevent the police from torturing him into a false confession. If the police ignore his Fifth Amendments rights and beat it out of him anyway, the statement should be inadmissible.
2. Why doesn't this apply to third parties?
It does apply to third parties, if they realize that their witness statements could get them into trouble.
And, in reference to your previous article,
FAIL! FAIL! FAIL! FAIL!
That's why I can see having self-driving cars on freeways - no pedestrians, cyclists or children and few if any intersections.But for city driving, no way. On the other hand, automating freeway driving would make most people's daily commute a hell of a lot nicer.
I remember 10 years ago there was speculation that for a few billion dollars you could build a machine capable of cracking common codes in a few months
And that "speculation" came from idiots. Moore's Law would have to be in effect for millions of years for that to be true.
The problem, in general, is that someone somewhere will eventually have to see the plaintext or else the whole system is useless. The NSA does whatever is necessary to ensure that if you can access the plaintext, then so can they. The cleverer the key management scheme you devise, the more likely it is that they will threaten you with prison if you don't provide a way for them to circumvent it.
tl;dr: you can devise a foolproof system, but you can't implement it or admit that it has been compromised.
Better than nothing. I think the point is that if you are too shy to talk to a real person, at least you can "talk" to the bot and not be embarrassed by how badly you suck at conversation. If it helps anybody, I'm all for it.

Yes: other forms of manual labor. When that is gone, there will be nothing left for 90% of the population, and you will end up supporting them.
Yes, as long as we can get world population down to 1 billion or so.
Every year, the same old crap from the Loebner Prize. Never improves.

We won't keep capitalism, the 1% will. They have all the power, and they don't give a crap what we think.
They never will.
And what is going to keep them in power? The police, the military? No, mindless entertainment will.

And roughly 1/4 of that went to the top 1% of the top 1%.
#2 will be replaced by "To satisfy the need for the next fix."
In English please?

Plus vast amounts of fraud.
Waiting for the Singularity is like waiting for the Messiah. Or Godot.
It may happen in 10 years, or in 10 thousand years. It may not happen at all. We have no idea.
So you're an equal to the president of GM, are you?
It can be used on cold air ducts.

To stop inhaling burning tar into your lungs. That's what kills you.
With one-way glass so the government could look in.

Like do as we say or spend the next twenty years behind bars?
Unless the software to generate the public/private pair is itself compromised.

Northern Canada and Siberia are pretty big, and would hold a lot of people.
