He questions.  The goal is to make robots or androids that are self aware as humans while at the same time, we expect them to always serve humans.  So, what if it decides it doesn't want to serve humans?

 

Sounds a lot like what I said a long time ago.  If somebody invents a robot smart enough to do my job, it would also be smart enough to join a union and demand wages and vacation time.

 

Glad to see Glenn catching up with me.

I'd kill myself if there were a day where Glenn Beck started "catching up" to me.

 

That's a fantastic way of knowing I'd become a utter retard.

A robot may be smart enough to want to join a union and demand wages and benefits, but it won't want them. Desire is an emotion; the goal is artificial intelligence, not artificial emotion.

How precious.  And for the record, there is a robot that can do your job....

I've already seen one of those things in action.  Slam into a a wall, reverse, slam into the sofa, jerk sideways, slam into another wall, reverse, slam again into sofa... That's all it does... slam and bash into things and it won't even pick up any more than the superficial surface dirt.  Now to make one big enough to do a five acre casino floor, it would have to weigh about 400 pounds, have better navigation and be equipped to make decisions, such as whether to just simply pull and remove a trash bag or to lift and dump the entire can upside down.  There are varied circumstances that could determine the answer.  Then, you have the added cost of liability insurance when the machine knocks somebody out of his wheelchair.
