knock it off But there's no way for machines to ever have true feelings as, like you said, we'd have to discover our own and there's no way to uncover the enormous complexities of human emotions. maybe now, but who is to say not in the future, i mean we used to thin the earth was flat and the sun flew around it or that the sun was a god in a vessel moving every hour and then resting when it got dark.(egiptian mythology). Oh and instead of a heart the machines would have some power source, but that is what your heart does for you, when it stops you stop

yeah, but is something we didn't understand how worked back then and now we do, who is to say the same won't go for emotions

I understand what you mean, but we're only human. If we can't even get a grasp on our own emotions, how can we possibibly find a way to gather the esense of them to transfer them to machines?

how did we ever travel into space, how did we discover all what we already have, every generation has 10 % more potential than the last, sooner or later it will happen

Giving machines emotions sounds kinda dangerous to me.

less dangerous though than leave emotionless machines that are A.I.

lol, It reminds me of 'I, Robot' and 'Eagle Eye' but that's not what I mean Tom. We have to have the capability of gaining the knowledge to achieve giving machines emotions in the first place. Even if we do someday manage to give robots some feelings, there's no way that they would ever get close to a human's emotions

Artificial intellegence & emotions both come from our spirit. You can't exactly give a machine one without the other, it'd be like a fish without gills or a bird without wings.

well that could be someway to explain it, but unlike figuring out how to make and fly a rocket, people will never be able to get a complete grasp on the esense of emotions, so therefore a complete grasp of it will never go to machines. Humans have been living on this earth for thousands and thousands of years and if we still don't understand our own feelings, I just don't see how it's possible to give them in their entirety to any machine, not just sadness and anger and happiness, but I don't think that we will ever truely understand the more complicated emotions

What Tom says is possible (if the scientists actually use spirit experiments) but I think Armageddon will happen first.

I don't think that they would do spirit experiments
