It looks like a backpacking astronaut, don’t even talk. What’s all this about?<BR/><BR/>And what the hell is Robosapien. It meanders ineptly in a finite simulation of a constipated pensioner; it should be on an American football team’s reject bench whisking Gatorade with those hands. His limited dialogue consists of belching and gorilla warbles. This is "The robot that thinks it's a human!" He’s not even as useful as a cup holder. Robosapien crushes your cup. Everything this thing does has to be pressed by a dejected adolescent.<BR/><BR/>These two aren’t the ones I want. No one should want these, they’re expensive fraudsters. Robots shouldn’t have remote controls and need a technician every two nanoseconds, my robots, “are alive, Stephanie.”<BR/><BR/>The technological singularity intends to solve this for everyone, well kind of. Imagine Asmios great, great grandchild, Miasmo. Miasmo’s brainy. It’s the equivalent of an amphetamine addled Jeremy Paxman brain incased in carbon fibre. With that power and intelligence he could theoretically build an improved version of himself. That one builds another super version and ten generations later the robots themselves have to design new names to replace begger-mega-stupendee-owso while we have become the best polishers in the galaxy.<BR/><BR/>This prediction has a lot of people in a flutter. Ok step back, right you know building robots that make better and better robots unrestricted by our meddling psyches is a leap of misunderstanding. We humans historically fuck with anything and everything until it’s redundant or shit and redundant. Simply, It won’t work because we’re a part of it.<BR/>...more at lifestyleguides.blogspot.comJOLLY ROGERhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00783431169281777041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37241561.post-42313577571128668532008-07-27T13:41:00.000-07:002008-07-27T13:41:00.000-07:00Rosey, I want to see a blog posting about the deat...Rosey, I want to see a blog posting about the death of Starbucks in Midtown.
