ORIGINAL: jlf1961
1) do you want something in your home that will constantly tell you all the things you are doing that are unhealthy?
One phone in our house has an app that reminds us to drink water and to get more steps in. Another phone used to actually suggest "Why don't you go for a walk?"
quote:
2) do you want your computer to cheerfully announce "Good morning" every freaking day?
Not really, but I'd like another type of greeting, maybe some soft piano music. And I'd like to then drink my coffee which, through the magic of programming, is ready and waiting for me as soon as I walk in the kitchen.
quote:
3) I do not see how you can program or create an AI that will lie.
So, ladies, if you ask the question "Does this make me look fat?" while the male in your life will most likely say 'no' (out of a sense of self preservation) that AI computer is going to say exactly what you do not want to hear, and probably in great detail.
Obviously you haven't met the male in my life.
quote:
4) how about AI in your car?
Think about it, it is bad enough when you have a side or back seat driver telling you what you are doing wrong, but the car as well?
That, I would welcome. The more eyes on things to avoid accidents, the better. I don't go anywhere without Google Maps. It's not too far a jump for me to see AI giving me a nudge when I'm speeding. I stop just short of being okay with AI actually taking over the driving of the car...but with or without my approval, that's going to happen one day.
quote:
5) Guys, we are known for not having the greatest fashion sense (look at the idiots wearing Hawaiian shirts with striped shorts) do you want your pc giving you fashion tips when you are going to the bowling alley for league play? Or you are getting dressed for a day at the golf course?
LOL - well, like the car, the more eyes on this to avoid disaster, the better.
quote:
6) Ladies, how about the night you plan to wear that sexy, slinky, very revealing black dress? You want an AI computer to make comments on just how much is showing?
Sure, why not? I can still tell it to fuck off.
quote:
Now, for the real kicker.
There is this guy in California who is making life like sex dolls starting at $10,000 a pop (males a bit more.) Now he is working on giving them life like movement and AI.
So, you have a sex doll that can move, think and complain about you being a lousy lover....
I've seen those dolls, maybe on Real Sex on HBO? They're actually pretty amazing looking, and that was years ago. I don't think this is a "kicker" at all. There's a market for it, and it's being enhanced by technology. Just like everything else.
I embrace new technology. I also am a little nervous about it, just like everyone else. But it's happening, so best to learn to navigate my way through it all and enjoy the benefits available to me rather than just wait for the world to be taken over by AI sex dolls.
