It's a scary start. Read the full article below. Only time will tell.

Code:

It's the beginning of the end, lads. It really is. Robots are now becoming self aware which means they're already smarter than all the politicians in the world.
A robot in New York was able to pass the 'King's Wise Men' puzzle which has served as a test of self-awareness for psychologists for a long time.

The world is going to be ran by robots.

Maybe they can make some good female robots with sexual capabilities

You know, there's this thing called the Chinese Room Argument. Basically, imagine a room with no windows and a locked door. There's a letter box in the door; that's about it. Inside the room there's a Chinese woman with a pen and paper. She also has a book that translates English to Chinese. So every now and then, a letter comes through the letterbox with some English on it. "Hello, how are you?", it might say. She opens her book and she matches up the squiggles and figures out which squiggles to draw to reply to the question. "I'm fine. And how are you?", she writes. She manages to conduct a conversation without knowing a word of English or even knowing what she said. All of her intelligence, her conscience came from some rules in a book.

We don't understand consciousness, so we cannot recreate it. We can make another room with a more advanced book, but we cannot create true AI.

At least not yet.

Define smarter? In what sense and to what degree? Unless I've overlooked It completely, I don't see any statistics and analytical reports based solely on human Intelligence.

My post was just a general statement, not aimed at anyone In particular. Perhaps I should've mentioned just that.

What I'm saying Is, on what grounds are they basing their findings that robots are "already smarter than all the politicians in the world". I'm talking about statistical, artificial and human Intelligence examinations and reports. Unless I've missed It, I don't see any.

Well, the source is the lad bible... You're not going to see what you're looking for there.

Then again, my dog is smarter than all of the politicians in the world. And I don't even have a dog...
