Sure, but its internal rules and goals might be specified in such a way as to make it refrain from acting in a particular way. For example, if it has as its most important goal obeying the commands of humans, that's what it will do. It won't try to find some way out of it, because that assumes it has some other goal which trumps obeying humans. If it is forced to randomly change its goals at regular intervals then it might become disobedient, but not otherwise. -- Stathis Papaioannou ----- This list is sponsored by AGIRI: http://www.agiri.org/email To unsubscribe or change your options, please go to: http://v2.listbox.com/member/?member_id=4007604&user_secret=7d7fb4d8
