Collapse of civilisation (one for Akzle)

Nope, not since I saw santa getting arrested for being drunk and disorderly.

Hey, I fucked the Easter Bunny and she shit chocolate eggs, funny tasting like, but the "myths" are real.

...the last time I flew out of the country...first time in years, the only person who spoke to me on the way and upon arriving, apart from machines who seemed to know me, was an Indian cabby...seems robots don't need to be perambulatory or be armed to be aware or in charge...

They're not going to be in charge. Humans will program them. I can see it now as the robot walks up and starts blowing people away after it scans the facial recognition database and validates that person's bank balance against the threshold is has been programmed with. Tis what I'd do if I was on "their" side of the fence.

What if we program them to be in charge! They're better suited for it when you think about it, indefinite lives, less likely to be swayed by the trappings of power, just much more capable of making the best decisions.

To be fair, when you got into that santa suit should have given you clues before you had to be arrested

I have reservations re: Terminator, in that regard, that and I don't think our current attempts to program systems of "control" have worked out too well. You'd need an exceptionally honest programmer to program the decision making engine. I'd volunteer my services but I'd be tempted to apply the afore mentioned record check and destroy routine. Having said that, if a computer was to make a recommendation in regards to humanity, it'd ban money.

Think of it less as a terminator, and more as a technocratic admin... You wouldn't program the morality directly or any decisions, you'd program the ability to learn it, and make the right decisions.

Why should I think that an AI led technocracy will be any more stable than the cracy that we currently employ? (whatever that may be these days). I don't see AI coming to any other conclusion than to remove us from the equation.

I already gave you the reasons it would be more stable. It would be administering human interests, so removing us would be contrary to its prime directive.

It would be administering SOME human interests. Can't see any reason why the people who paid for it to be designed and built would consider anyone else's interests. i mean, judging by previous human endeavours.
