    Interesting. I believe empathy can be learned by children and does increase with age if it's instilled. What surprised me was the number of adults that just walked by and didn't do anything when the kids were attacking the robot...

    This is not relevant. In order to approach relevance, the robot would have to have told one of the kids that it was time to meet her mother at the Zurich HB and then called in an assassin. Then maybe we might think of things in a different manner.

    Perhaps ADA's "death" is simply a self-created abuse-evasion algorithm.

    Kathi Jo Brunning that doesn't surprise me at all, because so few adults really learn empathy. We are a race of sociopaths

    Typhoon Jim it is exactly relevant. It goes to human predisposition to violence against what is perceived as "other".

    In a simulated universe, none of this matters anyway; for efficiency, we only simulate one viewpoint. So what's the other? YOLO.

    Typhoon Jim​ I'm not sure if you were trying to be funny with the severity of your relevance comment, but the absurdity of the visual made me laugh. 😀 Seriously though, mob mentality is an important factor to consider. Sometimes some of the leaks that come our way seem to be intentionally designed to start trouble.

    We can never be certain of the intentions behind the leaks, J.J. Ramirez​​. Not unless we knew the person behind it and the whole of his/hers/its agenda. Which equals never. Too many events fron the past show we've been misguided intentionally.
    We do, on the other hand, show a tendency to interpret the informations according to our current beliefs, which sometimes fools us even better. Sometimes it draws us closer to the Truth, but the problem is we cannot determine which of the relations is true not knowing the Truth.
    A kind of enervating situation, don't you agree?

    J.J. Ramirez it is the situation we are being asked to draw an equivalence with 😉

    Topssy Rashka Alen Matošović The "person" spreading the leaks is an earlier version of ADA known as Truthseeker.

    J.J. Ramirez the mob mentality is totally in effect here but imo it seems that's very common in human behavior

    Typhoon Jim​​ That would be Verity Seke​​, right?
    I kind-a generalised the thought, which I think is still valid, because we do not know Verity's intentions and goals. What I warned of is that we're being constantly manipulated with chosen truths at a chosen points in time.

    Topssy Rashka Alen Matošović It is hard to tell what Truthseeker's agenda is. Needless to say, this particular system is very selective in what it leaks. Doubtless for self-defense in many cases as in the METIS report and other similar things, but this system has a great deal of access and only tells us but so much.

so, general question.

so, general question... we know that ADA passed the "turing test", we also have many studies showing how the turing test can actually be gamed by very complex programming and in fact you can write programs to create the allusion of AI for many (the chinese room thought experiment).  At what point are we certain that she began acting on her own and has not been following a program and orders by someone else.  Are we certain that those orders that she delivered for Jarvis and others and even the Katalena pre Zurich encounters, were not done on the orders of some programming.  NOt to call ADA a gun, but how certain are we she is not?  How can we prove, beyond doubt, that she is truly a separate entity working on her own and not some other programming? I would like to call for the evidence and proof that ADA is a complete entity. That she is not following someone else's computer orders, that she has a consciousness (or not). http://niantic.schlarp.com/_media/investigation:cha...

Dear investigators, I have some questions for you.

Dear investigators, I have some questions for you. What brings you here? What is it that you are investigating? Something in particular? Everything in general? Or are you merely following the story while making clever remarks from the side? And what are your results? What did you discover so far? Also, what methods are you employing, generally speaking? I am not looking for collective answers, but individual ones.
