We can rely on our computers to be moral beings. A machine, in a sense, is a moral structure—like a thermostat. If the room is too hot it will bring the temperature down. . . . I think we are subcontracting our moral universe to that of the machines. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5818833&forum_id=2,#49571182) |

Or will it be impossible for they to happen as no one will be able to actually write or think on their own? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5818833&forum_id=2,#49571185) |
