Or, do we need to ask pointed questions about limitations of computation, oracle machines and Smithian cybernetic loops with two tier controllers [can we have an oracle there?]?
Does a fancy Si Rubber face — like those used for many years in Sci Fi flicks — make a difference?

Or,

Well, do rocks . . . even sophisticated, doped Si rocks . . . dream?

And, what does all of this tell us about the potential for design? END
AI promotional vid β is the AI future realistic? Is it utopia emerging? Or, dystopian?
The scientists have no clue how to build a simple cell but they now talk about self-awarenes of AI? π This will end up exactly like OoL science , will start with shiny promises and will end in shame.
Same old same old. Only the hat is new.
Some scientists have no idea of what’s involved in creating a duplicate of the human brain. They will have to do that before they create a real Artificial Intelligence. If this happens, only the military will have this technology. Unlike science fiction stories, it will be held under lock and key and tightly controlled.

LCD @ 4 – I second Martin_r’s response!
