that's not really a fair question as it doesn't have an end condition. so seeing as the loop could be infinite. yes they could be given the right to vote. though i do not believe they will in the near future what do you think?
All i can say is that I hope not
why not?
I feel like then the people who have political control are the ones who produce the computres And that would take away from the value of the vote, you just produce more to get what you want
yeah i see where you're coming from and that is why i don't think that there will be any law alowing AI to vote for a very long time first comptuers would have to be considered people
Hopefully if that would happen its a long ways out
and that would require true inteligence not artificial programed (or programed learning) inteligence what would you say is requried for an AI to be considered an individual?
I think some sort of physical body, it couldnt be just an intelligence over the interweb
what if it was an intelligence not connected to the web?
Just like a box?
like a desktop computer (though a much imporved future version of one) that has internal memory, storage, and processing apart from the internet. yet has the ability to think for its self and develop its own opinions
can it move?
lets say no. people can vote whether or not they can move.
Hm... I just dont like the whole idea
I'm open to it but it would definitely take a special kind of widespread AI to convice me that it was ok I feel like this prompt could make a good book
Haha it really could
I'm a bit of a computer nerd and a supporter of AI so I think about these things a lot. probably too much
No shame in that Thats really cool you are passionate about it What inspires you about computers
The concept itself facinates me. I like learning about the original computers and how they worked and then thinking about how we have shrunk that technology from the size of a room to the size of atoms blows my mind I have also been following the development of quantom computing which may result in the birth of an entirely new data type that is so much more powerful than our current bits
Yeah that really is incredible I found an SD card last night for 136 mb I laughed What is quantom computing
so currently we have storage measured in bits basically switches that can be on or off (1 or 0) 8 bits is a byte
Yeah
the largest 1 byte can be is 255 so 256 options if you count 0 a qbit quantom bit can have 3 states it would only take 5 qbits to = 1 byte 5 qbits can store up to 363 364 options with 0 basically by using this we can store and transmit data many times faster than we do now and process*
Oh that is way cool Is that where you want to take your career?
I don't know right now im juggling ideas my options are: Information Systems, Computer Science, Accounting, or Animation not in any specific order
That is a lot of options Are you leaning toward any right now
Currently I'm on the IS path but not in the program yet
Okay Thats really awesome
what are you plannig on doing?
Im going into industrial design Im way excited for it The program starts this fall
awesome! is it limited enrollment? like do you have to apply?
Yeah The pre program has an application and then you apply for the professional after that
where are you at on the level? on the ladder
I am applying for this fall
Good luck! do you know what they look for on the application?
From what I can tell its how well you can redesign things Like a kitchen utensil
what would you do with a butterknife?
I would probably change the handle Maybe the general shape of the blade
are there some things you think are perfectly designed? or is that not possible?
I think they can be But I am sure there can always be another equally effective way
that's interesting like soda cans. they're pretty well optimized
Yeah! The job of the industrial designer is to keep functionality or improve it while improving aesthetics So it could simply be the design on the can or the little lips how they fold so it looks better
