Wow I didn't know that. I feel like it was one of those cases where an exec was like "We are going to add this and this because we know for sure it will be good." I've seen it a lot more in movies now.
Nothing wrong with minimalism, but my issue is how disproportional and inconsistent the design is. The torso and head have angular shapes and are roughly the right proportions of a human being's. Then you get to the limbs and they're way too thin, and look scavenged from something else and repainted. Honestly, they look like prosthetics and it ruins the look of the whole thing.
Well from some quick Google searches, it looks like the robot in the content is just the base/skeleton of the robots, which would realistically not be designed with aesthetics taken into account. Generally they look more like my image.
It's a machine missing the exterior aesthetics, like a car without the exterior, or the bare bones of a computer. No casing. And the torso and head probably have all of the essentials of the robot, like an energy source and computer, while the arms and legs are only for movement and interacting.
Humans need more muscle mass on their arms and legs, while a robot would only need a simplified version to achieve the same results.
If an AI breaks free and starts the technological singularity a computer making a better computer that makes a better computer and so on we lose the ability to keep up in the first generations. Once we make AI that **** is staying firmly under lock and key.
But a technological singularity that acknowledges humans as the reason for its existence, and is taught from the get go that we are not only it's creators, but it's parents, would surely support our survival as long as we were complient and kind.
You cant stop evolution though. Even if we all agreed, there will always be some who dont. One resentful computer scientist with the knowledge to begin the process of AI is all it would take. But with people like that destructive enough to extinct us, it only further proves natural selection and darwin's theory of evolution.
I think its generally accepted that god-like or hyper intelligence in AI would actually result in them being benevolent rather than evil/destroying us.
are you ******* daft, we are destroying the planet in their eyes, well in REALITY, they need a place to live, it would be easier to wipe out a race than move to another planet__
but assuming a singularity they would likely develop those instincts via evolution the same way everything else has. As soon as artificial intelligence can begin to reproduce at a rapid rate it will begin evolving just like everything else
eh, fair enough. although I imagine that having a desire to survive would make it harder to get rid of and/or make it continue to improve itself in order to last. At least at first people would essentially act as predators somewhat.
Program the AI to always have to make sure **** cant do a certain thing etc.
As i said, there are ways to handle AI, just look at cerberus and EDI in mass effect
They just blocked of parts of her memorybanks and unplugged her from any system that could be used against humans
I'm not too concerned about AI honestly, I'm just saying that allowing ai to reproduce regularly will result in animal like instincts developing eventually unless we specifically prevent it. allowing ai to reproduce unmonitored essentially lets them evolve just like any other creature
Yeah, but again, the difference would be that there are no natural predator or really any dangers to them at all
So they wouldnt even have a concept of self defence or self preservation
they don't need to have predators outside of themselves if there are limited resources. seeing as AI has the potential to be able to reproduce at extremely rapid rates assuming it does not begin using physical resources to create more electronic ones somehow it will run out of space and begin competing.
I sincerely doubt this would happen simply because I don't think people would ever let ai break free completely and allow it truly free thought but if they did then just like every other thing that lives and ever has lived it will have to fight to stay alive
Really depends, with the interwebs we have almost unlimited storage capacity
An AI needs no physical presence outside of the electrons going through the web
yeah but "almost unlimited" is not that big if it begins reproducing thousands of times a day. At a rate of reproducing once and hour there would be 4.7x10^21 by the end of the third day.
Without self preservation instinct the waste of space will eventually get deleted, but you forget this is the singularity, they arent just inventing new AI, theyre inventing everything else as well, that includes storage capacity, compression software etc
There is an infinitely big universe, but its also infinitely small
The better we become at science the bigger and smaller we can think
There is basically no question or problem that is unsolvable by science in the long run, especially after the singularity happens
we reached comment chain length so replying here. The problem is that we are talking about rouge ai here, not controlled by people, and it's not going to wait around for people to start producing more storage. If it started reproducing without guidance and nobody stopped it it would fill the resources we currently have extremely quickly, far faster than more could be produced.
The thing is, computers calculate their actions better than humans do
They would before they start doing stuff do a calculation of storage and what they are doing
They would just start spamming out AI's en masse
Cause they have no reproductive instinct either
that's the point, is if an ai does, out of random chance or design, gain a reproductive instinct. also it would only care about running out of space if the ai valued other ai and was not 100% okay with just erasing older versions. given the starting conditions of desire for reproduction and a lot of time it would get to a point where it would continuously expand until it used all available resources just like every living creature does. even humans, smart as we think we are, reproduce when there are barely enough resources. Often even if that means stealing resources from someone else.
That would mean we discover ways to adapt with the machines and possibly even utilize machines for our own bodies like a more in depth version of what we already do today. And space travel is coming up pretty soon, so I'd be cool with being a 200 year old Cyborg living on a dwarf planet similar to Earth.
so a lost of them behave like ******* , others waste their existance fapping to some fetish or play videogames all day and other blow themself up because they worship a mysterious human who build them ?
this is more dystopic than terminators judgement day.
I'll be honest with you, it was awkward and was really uneventful. First part had slow pacing, then action, then back to VERY slow pacing the rest of the movie.
It is extremely slow-paced and some parts feel rather bland.
Otherwise if you enjoy some deus ex machina themes in sci-fi movies, I highly recommend it. It's more of a philosophical extravaganza than anything else.
