- nooneelse 15y agoEven a chat-bot could be designed to plead for its "life". Perhaps a new version of the Turing test is in order. Two computer programs, each pleading for their continued existence. The human judge/executioner is able to interact with both and has two kill switches, one for each. If one of them isn't turned off in 20 minutes, both will be turned off.
