but only we can tell whether information is right of wrong.this ability is called free will and is applied by critical thinking. whatever technology there may be,we the humans or other natural species will put it into action.Computer won't operate on its own.
and i didn't really start this discussion the OP did as he didn't understand how computers worked.
about growing an imagination,well this isn't a fantasy thread so i can't really go off-topic.Tell the moderators to loosen up on rules and i am ready to go into deep imaginations. |
It's not off-topic. This thread was about considering an unlikely premise (computers/lifeform being as smart as humans) to allow for discussion of a greater principle (will humans be less valuable than said computers/lifeforms). It's not about discussing whether or not the premise is possible, it's just considered to be so. That's the purpose of a hypothetical question.
OP probably did start the discussion, I'm not denying that. I'm just saying let's not dismiss the discussion of a superior man-made lifeform just because it's impossible.
