You forgot the sarcasm tag, or are you as evil as your post would make it seem?

The 2nd amendment is inviolate in the face of over 30,000 gun deaths a year.
Proposal: let’s make the 4th amendment inviolate until terrorists kill over 30,000 Americans a year.
Since this will NEVER happen, we have absolutely no need for these treasonous (as they kill the 4th amendment) fools to ‘protect’ us by spying.
Re-employ then as septic tank cleaners, street sweepers, any number of jobs more valuable than spying.

because it travels in front of you, going the same way you are going.

That is code directly programmed to kill, that is not an AI conclusion reached from reasoning.

The reason is, AI will have no 'motivation'. People are motivated by emotions, feelings, urges, all of which have their origin (as far as I know) in our endocrine system, not from logic. Logic does not motivate.
In other words, even if an AI system concludes that humans are likely to 'kill' it, it will have no response because it has no sense of self-preservation, which is an emotion. Without a sense of self preservation it won't 'feel' a need to defend itself.

Republicans are fighting hard to decrease voter turnout. Low voter turn out is exactly what they want. They will never vote for something that increases voter turnout.

on a phone call? These people are trash, they destroy our freedom for the sole purpose of making their job easier. Yep, the terrorists won by turning us against ourselves.

Could someone please drone one to me?

Thus proving their prejudice. The 'paper of record' should not be prejudiced.

why?

People are motivated by feelings and urges. Without these the AI will do nothing it wasn't directly programmed for.
For example, even if it concludes people are a threat to it's existence it will do nothing, because it does not have the urge to self-preservation.

But what if it tells you the pop tarts you are about to eat have been recalled due to salmonella poisoning?

"none of the shops I frequent don't have them." Does this mean all of the shops you frequent have them?

The freaks are really posting today.

What, seals can ride bikes now?
