   Hello Maurice!   
      
    MK> Only if there are humans still controlling them.  On their

    MK> What for?   
      
   Right.  AI machines won't ever develop the consciousness to     
   understand what they are doing.   
      
   I just finished watching the film Ex Machina from a     
   recommendation.  Although it's the best "AI" film I've seen     
   that depicts the machinery of an android beautifully,     
   prominently and in an original way, the film lacked "how" did     
   the machine develop the idea that it needed to "escape".   
      
      
    MK> Someone proposed that if so instructed to solve the global   
    MK> warming crisis, AI could easily determine that humans are   
    MK> responsible and thus the solution would be to eliminate   
    MK> all humans.   
      
   But.. instructions could include hard rules not to harm humans.   
      
   Perhaps we should move this topic to CHAT or COFFEE_KLATSCH or     
   ANYTHING_GOES
