    Every day we get closer to teaching the robots how to feel pain.

      We’ll soon have some law preventing artificial humanoid robot abuse

        We don’t even have laws preventing real human abuse if the victim groups have no political lobby in a lot of countries.

      That’s all I want out of AI.

      The ability to hurt my computer when it isn’t working properly.

      Pain is a great teacher.

      If you had the hardware to build a robot that could “feel” the world around it, and you wanted it to self-teach how to move around on its own (so that you don’t have to pre-define movement paths), you would probably program in a system that could interpret potentially damaging sensations as danger/bad and avoid them automatically (too hot/too cold/too sharp/too hard/etc). That system would essentially be a pain response.

      There’s a bit in the simspons where activists burn down a lab and a robot runs out of the building screaming “why??? Why was i programmed to feel pain?”

      I am waiting for this day so eagerly. To make the computers feel what they put me through.
