There is more information on the thread I mentioned

MOD: Hi Midster. Your duplicate posts in 3 Popular Science threads, and also Politics was reported. It's spamming. Against the rules. If you have questions about this, don't post here. PM me.

Wait!! Hang on a sec, I’m spamming a thread that exists on boards, to other users on boards.ie

Pointing people towards what could potentially be a very important thread for people to be a part of.

Why aren’t the makers of boards.ie and there moderators encouraging this, surely advertising different threads created by members of boards.ie, on boards.ie, on different subjects that are just starting up and therefore don’t have a big audience yet on boards.ie, is something that would easily play to boards.ie’s advantage.

Maybe an apply for thread advertisement button would do the trick, so the makers could first look at it, decide if it’s worth advertising to other users so new threads can have there own chance to grow after they have been up for a while.

Just a thought

Ground floor opportunities for R&D robotics jobs.

Makes me wonder what a future military populated by a great number of killer robots will look like?

**Fathom** · 03-12-2019, 22:34

Robot Santa Claus was one of the main antagonists in Futurama.

If robots someday discover superintelligence (a hypothetical agent that possesses intelligence far surpassing that of the brightest and most gifted human minds), will they demand equality, or perhaps superiority, and if humans do not comply, rebel and become "killer robots?" A list of sci fi movies now preview in my mind.

Counter Example
In the Dune* universe there was the Butlerian Jihad which led to the outlawing of thinking machines.
