how would Veeky Forums react if there was a real (01) city (aka Zero One)
In case you havent watched The Animatrix, Zero One is a city that was created by Artificially Intelligent machines after a dindu robot killed its master in "self defence" from being deactivated. which led to the death of the owner of the robot and his pets and even a technician that was called in. which lead to be the first robot to be charged for murder which he was dubbed "the martyr of the machine race". several demostrations on both sides of the argument happened and eventually leading to the United Nations to deactivate and destroy all artificially intelligent machines. that lead to the result of the surviving robots of the so-called global machine holocaust to run to a empty area of Saudi Arabia to create the city of 01 (Zero One)
The robot nation pumped out resources and goods to the world that made "Made In China" motto look ridiculously expensive and shitty in quality. that lead to the UN allowing a mass nuclear bombarment of Zero One (mostly protected by EMP shielding) and thus the machine city declaring war on all of Humanity (you can guess what was the outcome of that)
if i was head of the UN, i would immediately just leave them the fuck alone. just do a trade embargo and MAYBE do a Military Alliance on certain conflicts
incase you want to have a general idea of what it is without looking into the animatrix, just watch this vid on it youtube.com/watch?v=4rOdOVJCqNc
i been thinking it over for years though before or after the war?

Why didn't the Machines invade New Zealand? Did they fear the Maori Warrior?
Nathaniel Morales
they invaded everyone dumbass
they even annexxed the fucking dried up seas
Joshua Gomez
Both. Throughout the Second Renaissance, they made every attempt to try and get onto better relations with the rest of the world, and humanity spat back in their faces. Even so, after the war had been lost and the planet wrecked from their fighting, the machines still chose to put the surviving humans in a paradise-like dream state when they could have just finished them off.

i think humanity woke up and realised what the fuck they just did on destroying their own workforce for free labour
although instead of the black plague its blacking out the entire sky
they just wanted things to go back to where they once were. which ironically Elon Musk and Stephen Hawking are desperate to make AI illegal
William Murphy
If the humans didn't attack they'd watch the machines redesign and improve themselves and "evolve" into something that makes them look like worms by comparison, inevitably the machines would change their programming and question morality.
The machines were philosophical zombies that merely simulated consciousness, not conscious beings. While I don't approve of people hating robots and "hurting" them sadistically, the only evil here is that they are damaging their own mental health.
Strategically and morally the UN did nothing wrong. The window to defeat the machines was narrowly closing and the earlier the humans attacked the more likely they were to win.
Tyler Baker
yet again, they did dress up as humans (and under fake skin). but im not sure to hide themselves or to pretend to be like them (like Hollow Children in Binary Domain)

>Elon Musk and Stephen Hawking are desperate to make AI illegal Are you part of the alternative news media? These alternative facts are bit too alternative for me.
Jaxon Rogers
>not conscious beings Given that we're not entirely sure how to define consciousness, we might as well consider them conscious.
>would change their programming and question morality. Might be for the best. Humans themselves keep questioning morality.
Dylan Richardson
not exactly. considering even the bluepilled news (CNN, NBC) is even reporting on it
Noah James
Reporting what? Make AI illegal?
Thomas Perry
reporting on Elon Musk's and Stephen Hawking's word (as well a few others) on making Ai illegal, not reporting on why it would be illegal
>Alex Jones Is this guy serious or is he just a manipulator? Or a satirical comedian? I honestly can't tell.
Charles Russell
>open letter on artificial intelligence calling for research on the societal impacts of AI >calling for research on societal impacts of AI
I don't see the word "Illegal" once
Matthew Brown
basically finding a middle ground between banning and allowing free reign
maybe literally dumbing down AI to the point it will only learn from its creator and not itself
Landon Cruz
You seem upset. Perhaps you too fear the Maori Warrior.
Liam Carter
Probably just residual programming from their human creators. The machines needed a motive to obtain resources and expand and a computer only does what it is instructed, so they preserved some of the human-like motivations given to them by their creators in their original form, manifesting in robots cosplaying as humans.
Questioning morality can swing both ways. The robot that murdered its master may have been justified in questioning the morality of allowing its master to murder it however it could equally decide to behave like Agent Smith.
>we're not entirely sure how to define consciousness Being human we can be sure biological brains are conscious, we can't be sure machines are, you could risk eradicating all conscious beings by letting machines take over.
Robert Carter
What? Thats not what the letter suggests or hints at all.
The letter is only asking for more research on AI, its relation to ethics and a studies on failsafe options in case of emergencies.
I don't think you even know what you're talking about. An AI that cannot learn by itself is not an AI. The very definition of AI includes the ability to self-learn/improve.
Grayson Gray
>thus the machine city declaring war on all of Humanity (you can guess what was the outcome of that)
Both. A part of it is his artistic persona but he also takes some things seriously. He's deep into conspiracy theorism but also tends to act it out in a more dramatic fashion.
