Artificial Intelligence

Today we were talking about some of the things what can be done with technology in recent times, and I remembered seeing this Video on YouTube.

What do you think? I know that Asimo is not the only robot capable of learning (nor do I think he is the most advanced). Should we be doing this? I can't help but wonder whether we are playing god, or simply making a strange form of child...

  1. I feel that if technology can yield a net positive gain for society, then it should be utilized. Since I'm not really religious, I don't have any moral objection to playing God. However, at the same time, I think people should be wary of the threats posed by forces that could get out of control.
