Does artificial intelligence lead to artificial personality and mood?

[shin]

If computers with artificial intelligence could develop something close to human personality traits, which do you think would be among the first they would exhibit?

I'm uneasy with robots replacing human beings. And I'm not talking about doing mundane tasks either.

Whenever you need reassurance that robots will fail horribly at enslaving us, just go to the supermarket and observe the myriad issues that arise at the automatic checkout lane.  



Every robot I've seen lacks the versatility to thrive in an environment with x factors they have no established data on.

I use the automated checkout line..



I haven't had any problems with it.

 

The ones here run into all sorts of problems. One news story reported that a malfunction caused a self checkout change dispenser to give out $20 bills freely.

I never see those kind of malfunctions, darn it.

A common one I get is that there is a foreign item in the bagging area, and it locks up until a worker comes over and resets it.

My wife uses auto checkouts. I will ask her if she has experienced the same.

I don't think computers would see us as a threat to their existence with how much we currently depend on them.

The only he is dependent on is cheap booze. I know, I use to be that pathetic.

Theres just so many people on the planet... Not enough for everybody..



The population just keeps on growing..



An AI might think we are like locusts... Its logical.

By that same logic the amount of computerized devices are also growing. Unless AI develops a human-like ego it would be contributing to the problem of depleting resources.

Just making them would contribute to depleting resources..



But, still they would consume less than a human would over a lifetime of say eighty years.

Oh, definitely... but I would think concepts like sacrifice and the rationale of long term goals wouldn't translate well to an artificial intelligence that has no other options of reason beside true/false, yes/no, good/bad, etc.

Elon Musk among 116 AI types calling on UN to nobble robo-weapons before they go all Skynet



https://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/08/21/open_letter_calls_for_autonomous_weapons_ban/">//https://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/08/21/open_letter_calls_for_autonomous_weapons_ban/



Open letter to UN warns of 'weapons hacked to behave in undesirable ways'

116 artificial intelligence and robotics experts have put their name to an Open Letter calling for the United Nations to work for a ban on autonomous weapons.



"Lethal autonomous weapons threaten to become the third revolution in warfare," the letter says. "Once developed, they will permit armed conflict to be fought at a scale greater than ever, and at timescales faster than humans can comprehend."



"These can be weapons of terror, weapons that despots and terrorists use against innocent populations, and weapons hacked to behave in undesirable ways."



The letter concludes by saying "We do not have long to act. Once this Pandora's box is opened, it will be hard to close."



The signatories say they've penned the letter for two reasons.



Firstly, they feel that "As companies building the technologies in Artificial Intelligence and Robotics that may be repurposed to develop autonomous weapons, we feel especially responsible in raising this alarm."



The second reason is that while the United Nations' of the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons has established "Group of Governmental Experts" to consider autonomous weapons, that group's first meeting "has been cancelled due to a small number of states failing to pay their financial contributions to the UN."



The meeting was due to convene today, August 21st, 2017, and its agenda .



Hence the letter's exhortation for members "to double their efforts at the first meeting of the GGE now planned for November" in the hope of "finding means to prevent an arms race in these weapons, to protect civilians from their misuse, and to avoid the destabilizing effects of these technologies."



"We therefore implore the High Contracting Parties to find a way to protect us all from these dangers."



Musk's previously issued similar warnings and argued for AI to be regulated sooner rather than later.
