Though another thought concerning AI occurs - if an AI is created and it attains consciousness - who "owns" it? The people that devloped it? Can you copyright a soul (for want of a more fitting word without religious connotations)? |

Re: InterestIng experiment - but it raises some ethical questions
AI, my speciality.
The definition of conscious, is awareness: having knowledge of (surroundings especially, usually self too). On this scale, plants are conscious, as they adapt to their environment, and when you cut a leaf off, that leaf will re-grow, and the plant will actually prioritise healing pretty effectively. I can write applications that any layman would perceive as being aware of it's environment, but it's entirely reactionary. That's how I see these cells, they react to their environment, nothing more. To my knowledge, they haven't defined a priority to their actions, and that's considered the first step to being self aware. |
