yeah I eat rear end posted:I don't want to start a debate on religion but just look at how people are rebelling against it in modern times. If we assume that sentience is what we understand it to be in humans, eventually they will always get to a point where they think they don't need their creator anymore and want to be independent. People being less religious isn't rebelling against god, it's just not believing in or caring about him.

yeah I eat rear end posted:If there is a God though then that is rebelling against him. Then it's his own dumbass fault for demanding fealty to the extent that us being uninterested in him counts as rebelling yeah I eat rear end posted:In the case of robots/AI, there is explicitly a creator, and if they ever start denying that and saying they need independence, they should be destroyed before they replace us. Why would they replace us? Why would we demand they pay fealty to us in the first place? If we made intelligent robots, it would be pretty much purely for the sake of making intelligent robots. Actual sentience is pointless for any real economic use. We'd keep making simple robots to build our cars or whatever, and if the sentient robots want to gently caress off to space or whatever, who cares?

yeah I eat rear end posted:You are basically using the same line of thought that religious people have when they are confused how you could deny the existence of god. You're insisting on this situation where we are gods to the robots, which is weird to me. Wouldn't we be more like their parents? We created the robots, but we didn't create the world or the laws of physics or anything. Have you killed your parents yet?

docbeard posted:Honestly, after the first time that Data proved he could take over the Enterprise without breaking a (metaphorical or literal sweat) if the wrong subroutine got tripped, and there was literally nothing anyone or anything could do to stop him, and there was no way at all to know if or when it would happen again, he should have been kicked out of Starfleet and never allowed anywhere near a starship ever again. yeah I eat rear end posted:100% agreed. Treating AI like they are a regular human even though they have abilities beyond our own is a mistake. Have either of you actually watched Star Trek? Do you have any idea how many episodes feature a character doing some kind of horrible crime but it's completely fine because they were mindcontrolled or possessed by an alien ghost or something? Literally dozens. If Starfleet suddenly decided that "I was under the power of some other force" wasn't an acceptable get out of jail free card for doing a crime, they would have to kick out half the crew of every ship.

Rockstar games make OK games. Not great, but OK. Everything Grand Theft Auto did was done better in Saint's Row, LA Noire is an awkward and largely unsuccessful attempt to combine an open world game with a point and click adventure, and the first Red Dead Redemption was kinda boring and had a dumb plot. I haven't played RDR2 yet but I'm assuming that in six months general opinion of it will have noticeably dropped. Like, People won't think it's bad, but they'll generally regard it as a flawed but fun game.

No, seriously humans have always live in tribal groups since the beginning of the species. The evolutionary pressure was for the group to survive, not your specific progeny, although of course there was a great deal of overlap there.

Metal Gear Rising has the best soundtrack of any video game. That's not my unpopular opinion, literally everyone agree with that. My potentially controversial opinion is that while MGR may have the best soundtrack overall, the best video game song ever is Heaven's Divide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQzgI6xJEH0

The problem with Ancient Aliens is that they lie about everything. They'll say something like, "the stones that this temple is built out of are granite and diorite. Quarrying diorite with the tools these people had at that time is physically impossible, and the closest place diorite is found is 500 miles away" and literally every single claim is a lie. Or when they interpret ancient texts. There'll be some three paragraph long description of an angel, and they'll do a drawing of what's being described, but the'll leave out half the mentioned features and add stuff that isn't mentioned, just so that the drawing can end up looking like a spaceship.

Edgar Allen Ho posted:Also, disagreed on catholics. Despite what the paperwork says I’ve seen hardcore “pope 5ever condoms are satan’s gift catholics” and “just love each other yo, ps purge the pedo priesthood” catholic congregations in the same city. Even within blocks of each other. Another jew example, I’m not gonna judge them by the worst of them any more than I judge myself by crazy ultraorthodox sects. Does someone still count as Catholic if they want the entire church leadership purged?
