But why bother to build robots that look like humans? Ishiguro views machines as good vehicles to learn more about human nature. He combines engineering with cognitive science with the aim of making very humanlike robots, which can be used as test beds for theories about human perception, communication and cognition. He calls his approach "android science."
"A robot is a kind of simulator for expressing human functions, especially the cerebellum or the muscles," says Norihiro Hagita, director of the ATR lab that developed Geminoid. "It's a kind of ultimate human interface."
Actually, I was referring to things like the Phillipine-American war, where U.S. attacks into the countryside often included scorched earth campaigns where entire villages were burned and destroyed, torture (water cure) and the concentration of civilians into "protected zones" (concentration camps). Many American officers and soldiers called this war a "nigger killing business".
Or, you know, how the Americans raped and killed the NATIVE Americans who our forefathers stole our land from.
Maybe your forgeting that Americans mass-murdered Korean women and kids during the Korean War, operating under the name of the "UN forces".
Families living in Iraq are without electricity and water. Prior to us "helping" them, THEY WERE FINE! They had food, electricity, water, now they have nothing!
Anyway... America is not a peaceful, all-helping nation. End of story.
If America can be a powerful nation without fucking up the rest of the world, I'm sure China can do it too.
What planet is this America on? The one I live in did fuck up the rest of the world to become a powerful nation, and continues to do so in order to retain that power.
