Quote:This, it is hoped, will bring into being a sentient mind that will be able to think, reason, express will, lay down memories and perhaps even experience love, anger, sadness, pain and joy.
If it can think, reason and feel all those things, why would it NOT rebel if we shocked it a few gazillion times a day just to keep it alive? Sure, it'd be a modern marvel in the fact that it can think and reason, but there's been MORE than enough science fiction films with bad ends, or the AI's going Berserk and stuff.
It'd be like a new subclass for slavery and all that jazz. a New disposable mind we can create over and over and over so we don't have to worry about the junk that nobody wants to do, so we can be lazier and get fatter than we are already.
I just don't have a good feeling about this.
