I remember seeing a movie when I was in grade school about a computer that counselled citizens about their everyday challenges. In the end the computer basically commits suicide. It wasn't a mainstream movie but something (I suspect) recommended to teachers at the time (late 70s, maybe it is an older film though). Teletypes and flashing lights I think. I can't find it with Google. Anyone know what it is? I tried some obvious sci-fi authors but came up with nothing. It wasn't a particularly sci-fi movie, but more about not giving up responsibility to others, in this case a machine.
Anyway, that's a cheery tune. I would pity the sentient machine that had to read stupid human tricks on Facebook or make sense of Amazon purchasing habits and credit histories all day. Mind numbing. -----Original Message----- From: Friam [mailto:friam-boun...@redfish.com] On Behalf Of Carl Sent: Friday, June 10, 2016 10:02 PM To: friam@redfish.com Subject: Re: [FRIAM] Fascinating article on how AI is driving change in SEO, categories of AI and the Law of Accelerating Returns "Now we will build you an endlessly upward world..." https://youtu.be/F7P2ViCRObs ( written from the POV of an AI (if that's even possible)) Speaking of robot overlords, after listening to this starting to think that trade agreements are less about trade than about big data.
