I was talking about the movie AI- where the leader of the event is about to
pour acid on David and asks the audience let he who is with out sin cast the
first stone. This is a great place for discussion, but I wish somebody would
build an AI( a body like David in the movie- it was "real")- but I think
with all our fears of breaching ethics we shall never do it! So I just
asked- or challenged - let's do it! As for go ask Alice- I believe she could
help us- cant we use her self reasoning to speed up the process so we can
actually figure out ways to make the components that will give us the
genetic or artificial components to make Christopher Reeves walk, and Dr,
Hawking a whole body. By the way- if there were a fight for the first
artificial body- Michael Jackson would out bid us all. lol.
