Desks and tables are not, as far as I know, sentient.
Why is it relevant whether they were created from sand and metal by bald apes, or from carbon and water by the autonomous processes that happen in a bald ape's crotch?

The point is, we build them to serve us, otherwise they are not needed. I don't care if they're sentient or not, their purpose is to serve humanity. https://youtu.be/ekP0LQEsUh0?t=32 https://youtu.be/ekP0LQEsUh0?t=32
- meric 12y agoWhat if some computer scientists builds one, not to serve, but to live? Would you still try to make it a slave?
- 10098 12y agoNo, just destroy it and avoid further problems. There is no point in creating artificial beings with the goal of "living". Normal flesh-and-blood people are pretty good at that, there is an abundance of them and we keep making more. We're facing more and more problems and we need AI research to solve them, not create new ones.
- lotsofmangos 12y agoYou sound like someone from a dystopian anime.
- 10098 12y agoJust curious, why specifically anime and not, for example, a novel? EDIT: you were thinking about Animatrix, weren't you :)
- lotsofmangos 12y agoWas more thinking of Ghost In The Shell, or maybe Appleseed.
