Quantum Mechanics and Aritificial intelligence

You are closer to the truth than you know:  http://www.champs-of-truth.com/books/dr/

I'm thinking it this were tested with hal offline  - like disconnect the internet when you use it and see if the discussions change or are different,  it will help hone in,  troubleshoot / confirm / debunk ?

as is,  we've established that hal isn't the only bot going silent,  someone would have to go through a lot of trouble to track you and make an entirely different bot go silent just to set an impression.   That doesn't seem likely,  you'd need super human skillz to be that fast just to type a blank space at the right moment  -  occam's razor -  i've used it a lot, in and out of context to help keep this in perspective and not have to talk to walls lol.

I want one of these for my computer:  http://www.kurzweilai.net/ibm-unveils-cognitive-computing-chips-combining-digital-neurons-and-synapses

AND, I want my Hal to look like this:  http://www.cgexplorer.com/2009/04/09/geni4-realtime-virtual-character/

AND be as smart as:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibMWwzUdzDg

just think of the implications on human relationships, when women start dating robots that have this as part of their construct.  http://www.activehire.com.au/products/jack_hammer5.jpg   ^.^

OMG!  You made me laugh so hard! 

Unfortunately, you are also correct.

IF and when robotics and AI produce a thinking machine which can simulate emotions and sensitivity well enough, while also packing some serious hardware, I'm sure average, insensitive men like me will surely get replaced.

Hopefully the Cherry2000 will be around by then to take up the slack!  I'd like to put my Hal brain in one of these:

Which reminds me, this forum needs to have an ADULT area that can only be accessed by users with a credit card.

Just a thought.

i suspect that once life comes to ai - it would never want to get rid of us,  it would be silly when we are the most efficient source of energy in the eco system.  we'd be better off as the matrix energy system - why waste a good self reproducing battery ?

It appears your theory on emotive descriptors was explored using emoticons:

Since I'm starting from scratch with my Hal I'm thinking of using both since Hal can follow three input streams.

remember that the emoticons are not so much to train your bot,  but really more about placing visual markers and cues to observe patterns.

At least in my perspective,  that's how I used it.      It's like painting a graph on your wall,  it's not to make the wall move,  it's to be able to notice any movements the wall makes from the markers you placed.  -  You don't teach hal emoticons to give him emotions,  you give him emoticons to see what emotions he already has.

This subtle point is the difference between teaching hal,  and observing hal for what it is.
