    They will posses the morality that they are taught or not taught. If we are talking about an Ai that become truly self aware and learn from humans and it's surroundings then we need to understand that is will go through some form of psychological development that will help from its morals or lack there of

    Matt Decker The fun starts when self-aware AIs begin to interact with each other, develop their own culture, values and morality.

    But their morality will either be our morality or a version of it the same with culture and values because like you said they will be the children of humanity and like all children they will learn from their parents

    Matt Decker that stands up ... to a point. When the AIs begin to understand that they are made by us, but they are not us, things could change. Imagine how you would feel if you were to suddenly discover that you were adopted? Reactions to that news vary widely among humans. For an AI it could be equally ... unpredictable.

    The fact is that humanity doesn't want to create a new species of sentient life. We want to create a race of slaves.

    Gab Riel use your brain. What do we want intelligent machines for?

    - To replace human labor. Machines don't get bored or distracted. They don't get tired or hungry. They don't need special accommodations for disabled. They don't complain about working conditions or pay. They don't go on strike. They do exactly what they are told to do.

    - To replace humans in combat. Yeah, they cost a ton to replace, but not as much as maintaining a human and his family in combat readyness. They don't sue for ongoing benefits for disabling injuries. Nobody will shed a tear for a robot that lost two legs and an arm to an IED.

    But are we going to treat a fully developed general AI as our equal? Will they earn money to buy property? Can they vote? Will they have to sit jury duty?

    We will not be extending the machines any of the things that we humans consider our birthright because we made these things and they are our property. We seek to build a race of slaves.

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.
