RE: Should Robots Feel Pain?

in #technology7 years ago

Do think about the downside of this! If they feel pain they can be sad or angry, etc. For example: There is a angry woman in walmart and it speaks angrily to the robot, she is the 20th person who dose this to the robot, obviously it will have a response. You might argue that there is a way to code it in to not feel this, but for now we aren’t even sure how to make them feel anything.

Sort:  

Yeah, nobody has the slightest idea of how things could evolve from the point we teach them to feel pain. It could evolve in a number of ways, some of which could prove dangerous.

Exactly, I can't agree with you more. I think that Elon Musk and Stephen Hawkings are quiet right that one day AI may be the greatest threat to human kind.
