On that note, movies like “Eagle Eye” and “Stealth” to name 2 are completely irrational fears that are common amongst the non techies. Can accidents occur? Certainly. Will our computers take over the world in some hostile manner (whether or not it be for our own good in the end)? Absolutely not. A hollywood fantasy it is (interpret with Yoda speak). Do I wish it would/could happen? As the judges on American Idol would incorrectly say “110% yes!”. Why do I wish it could happen you ask? My response to that is “cuz it would be damn cool, now stfu n00bsauce”.

I accept that adjustment to my last statement. In fact it fits in perfectly with my comment on how technology adapts, but people don’t see it that way.

Cheers, Lambage!

I have to slightly disagree with your last statement. People do learn from their mistakes, however they don’t learn to adapt those lessons to new situations. Like not putting my hand on the stove because it’s hot, doesn’t mean I won’t go put my hand on top of my cars engine. It’s a similar lesson but different enough that there’s almost no reason there should be a correlation. We humans are sometimes good at that and sometimes not, what’s obvious to one person isn’t to another. Unfortunately it’s this premise that will make it nearly impossible for man to ever truely create a true human like artificial intelligence anytime soon. How would you describe to a series of and/or/xor/xand etc. gates how to determine the similarities between two different situations.

I am ending this before I get completely offtopic. Just my 2 cents.
