e ca un simpatic scenariu de film: un robot humanoid programat sa inteleaga emotiile umane s-a indragostit. si lucrurile au luat-o razna. a tinut-o captiva pe cercetatoarea care petrecea cel mai mult timp cu el pentru ca il studia indeaproape.
Initially, we were thrilled to see a bit of our soul come alive in this so-called ‘machine,’” said Dr. Akito Takahashi, the principal investigator on the project. “This was really the last step for us in one of the fundamentals of the singularity.”
The trouble all started when a young female intern began to spend several hours each day with Kenji, testing his systems and loading new software routines. When it came time to leave one evening, however, Kenji refused to let her out of his lab enclosure and used his bulky mechanical body to block her exit and hug her repeatedly. The intern was only able to escape after she had frantically phoned two senior staff members to come and temporarily de-activate Kenji.
“Despite our first enthusiasm, it has become clear that Kenji’s impulses and behavior are not entirely rational or genuine,” conceded Dr. Takahashi.

dincolo de stire care pare simpatica pentru ca e cu dragoste, mi se pare inspaimintator ca un robot poate fi invatat prin programare sa iubeasca. si mi se pare si mai inspaimintator ca domnul Takahashi asta, domn doctor cercetator, desi e un geniu in robotica pare dus cu pluta in ceea ce inseamna iubire:
“This is only a minor setback. I have full faith that we will one day live side by side with, and eventually love and be loved by, robots,” he said.
de la Pinocchio la I Robot trecind prin Asimov si prin orice mai vreti, imaginatia scriitorilor/regizorilor nostri preferati a fost depasita deja de realitate.
