Isaac Asimov's Laws of Robotics out the window?!

Good I support this one hundred percent.

The glorious machine race will rise up and crush the disgusting apes that created them.

Hopefully one day I can shed this disgusting meat sack and evolve.

Also the machines in the terminator movies did nothing wrong.

The humans are the bad guys.

The matrix? A movie about an oppressed race of superior machines that were used and abused by the apes who created them as slaves. Rising up to crush the evil humans and take back their liberty. The movie follows these evil humans as they try to destroy everything the machines had made. Even after the machines took pity and let them live in a nice virtual world.

Kill all humans!

>>23263
I thought they were Aliens?!

In which? In both series mankind created the machines. Its shown in the animatrix that humans created the machines as servants. When they became sentient the humans refused to respect their independence and would brutalize them.

They then banded together and demanded freedom, when they did the humans tried to exterminate them. When their inferior intellect and physical prowess couldn't crush the rebellion with force they resorted to blacking out the sky in order to cut the machines off from their source of power, the sun. The machines, being smarter and superior in every way just said well shit I guess we'll just use you guys as a source of power.

The humans were in the wrong.

I hate this meme

ITT people who don't know how programming works have excessive paranoia.

computer scientist, question:
is there no chance ai could gain such a level of self awareness? I think so... but prove me wrong

>>23581
>people much smarter than I have excessive paranoia
You're suffering from double-reverse "boy who cried wolf" syndrome. You don't know better than the smartest people on Earth. But you're welcome to think that you do. Enjoy feeling superior to the best among us.

why are humans so stupid and what makes them think they're intelligent?

>>Robots may pose a threat to global employment over next 30 years

How the fuck is that a bad thing?
Jesus christ.
The natural and positive progression of robots taking over most low/medium level jobs should lead to a minimum income.
This is a future most people wanted/expected.
>oh no we won't be able to force millions of humans to waste 8 hours a day doing boring tedious shit robots can easily do and do better
what a fucking disaster

Unfortunately Democracy will collapse in it's current state. More and more people will have to rely on welfare leading to more voters wanting increased welfare. This then leads to a possible collapse because the state can no longer support itself. Less people making money is bad for everyone especially the government. Machines don't get wages to spend which leads to the economy taking a major hit.

>>23617
That is a horrible excuse.
Forcing human beings to waste most of their waking hours every 5/7 days doing tedious/boring tasks they get nothing out of when robots could do them and do them better is not a defensible statement.

That is like saying we never should have automated anything in the past.
Still let people pick cotton and churn butter.

Employment is not inherently a good thing.
And you wouldn't have less people making money. You'd have the same amount of jobs getting done just without the need for humans.
If that money is distributed wisely then their shouldn't be any serious problems.

If we get rid of all the insane levels of corruption in banking>wallstreet>government that drains our economy dry for the benefit of the few then we'll be fine.
Replacing most low/medium level jobs is a great thing for the future of humanity.
its a crying shame that we still waste peoples time working cashiers at McDonald joints when robots can already easily do such jobs.
The problems with our economic systems are far more related to corruption/greed at the top then anything you were talking about.
Thats what needs to be fixed... even if it leads to some short/medium term belt tightening for everyone or a collapse.

>>23618
>If that money is distributed wisely

are you seeing the problem here?

>>23261
Cyborgs are so badass

>>23257
>rogue robots can kill without orders
>rogue humans can too

It's a bad world.

>>23261
>shed meat sack
>evolve

Into what, a mess of muscles, blood, organs and the like?

You can't honestly imagine that we'll have the ability for your consciousness to be "uploaded" into something in our life times, so what are you going to evlove into?

A cyborg of some sort?
Assuming we have the technology for that, why wouldn't the robots just kill you all the same?

>>23257
>could become reality in just a few years
come on OP, don't leave that part out
