When Robots no longer need us

[727Sky]

A interesting video about current and future developments in Robotics

Emily Chang meets some of the world’s most advanced, and most intelligent, robots. Will the creation of a synthetic species with human-like intelligence improve the human experience, or end it? Technology that once seemed like science fiction is rapidly becoming reality, transforming the very essence of our existence. In this four-part series, Emily Chang unravels the future of being human in an age of unprecedented innovation.

This is one of the more interesting videos on current and future A.I. developments IMO

My guess is that we would have served our purpose and no longer be required.

Even wonder if we may have eaten our own Gods? 

Maybe its one big Ouroboros cycle.

Where biological life spawns digital life.

Digital life consumes the biological sorts.

And the whole process repeats...

I have often wondered if the universe is actually teaming with artificial life as that may be the top of the food chain in certain parts.

Maybe it's all being engineered that way at a.macro level mate.

Certainly get the feeling 'elitists' don't want many of us around.

Don't know if you ever saw the 'Animatrix' but always thought it was far better written and more thought provoking than the films.

Your comments reminded me of 'The Second Renaissance' (which is awesome).





Part 2 / 3 / 4

Life of the artificial sorts would seem to make the prospect of crossing the vast distances between the stars and colonisation somewhat more of a tangible prospect...

I suppose the ticket would be an actual Von Neumann machine and AGI.

Just like in Battlestar Galactica

Could be.

"All of this has happened before, and all of it will happen again" is basically the Ouroboros cycle in a sentence.

 As i understand the concept, outside of fiction, it originated from ancient Egyptian and Greek traditions.

Some may keep humans as pets. There will probably be some zoos to see their makers and wonder how they were intelligent enough to make the first clankers. 

The pets will probably be well regulated. Registered with the authorities to control their breading. We don't what them to reinfest the place do we?

I think we all know they are apt to build us a better Zoo than "They" have, so....

As to reinfesting places, look at what we do when we go anywhere?

It seldom bodes well after humanity arrives...

At least in our present condition.
